Insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF-1R) is proved to contribute the development of many types of cancers. But, little is known about its roles in radio-resistance of colorectal cancer (CRC). Here, we demonstrated that low IGF-1R expression value was associated with the better radiotherapy sensitivity of CRC. Besides, through Quantitative Real-time PCR (qRT-PCR), the elevated expression value...
Accumulating evidences indicate that the functional FAS−1377G>A, −670A>G and FASL−844T>C polymorphisms affect the risk of several kinds of cancers. However, their roles in the development of larynx and hypopharynx squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) were still unknown in the Chinese. In the current study, we examined whether these functional genetic variants were associated with the risk of larynx...
Human embryonic stem (hES) cells with the capacity of self-renewal and multilineage differentiation are promising sources for generation of pancreatic islet cells for cell replacement therapy in diabetes. Here we induced hES cells into insulin-producing cells (IPCs) in a stepwise process which recapitulated islet organogenesis by directing cells through the stages resembling definitive endoderm, gut-tube...
Invasive fungal infection (IFI) is a life-threatening infection occurring most often in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and few data has been reported in SLE patients particularly in China. This present study was aimed to determine IFI prevalence, associated risk factors and patterns of infection in Chinese SLE patients. A retrospective study was conducted in a single institute of...
