ABSTRACT
Hepatoma is one of the most common malignant tumors of digestive system worldwide， and a main factor leading to cancer-related deaths. Its incidence is increasing year by year， posing a serious threat to human health. Currently， hepatoma is mainly treated by surgical resection， liver transplantation， radiation and drugs， but there are certain adverse reactions and problems of high recurrence rate and low survival rate. Chinese medicine has unique advantages in improving the comprehensive curative effect of hepatoma and reducing adverse reactions. With a variety of active ingredients， Chinese medicine can induce hepatoma cell apoptosis， inhibit the proliferation， migration and reverse multidrug resistance through multiple targets， thus exerting anti-hepatoma effect. It has become an important means for the prevention and treatment of hepatoma as well as a rich resource for anti-hepatoma drug research and development. Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway， one of the most classical pathways in cancer， is involved in tumor cell proliferation， cell cycle， migration， invasion and tumor angiogenesis. Recently， many studies have reported that the active ingredients of Chinese medicine can play an anti-hepatoma role through this pathway. Therefore， this paper summarized the domestic and foreign literature in recent years， analyzed the relationship between wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway and the specific mechanism of hepatoma occurrence and development， and combed the literature on the effect of flavonoids， terpenoids， alkaloids， polysaccharides and other active ingredients of Chinese medicine on inducing hepatoma cell apoptosis， regulating cell cycle and inhibiting the invasion and metastasis through Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. In addition， the paper summarized the research progress of relevant active ingredients of Chinese medicine against hepatoma， to explore their specific mechanism against hepatoma through Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway， so as to provide theoretical reference for further development of anti-hepatoma drugs.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore the effect of handicraft training administered over the Internet on sensation disorders and on the mental status and life quality of stroke survivors.Methods:A total of 75 stroke survivors in the sequelae stage and with sensory disturbance were randomly divided into a general training group of 26 (group A), a handicraft training group of 26 (group B), and a handicraft training group of 23 using Internet instruction (group C). In addition to 40 minutes of routine physical and sensory training rehabilitation every morning, groups A and B were given traditional training and handicraft training, while group C was given handicraft training delivered over the Internet for 40 minutes every afternoon, five days a week for 4 weeks. The traditional training involved inserting wooden boards, plate grinding, as well as sorting beans. The handicraft training involved digital painting, making non-woven flowers, silk screening flowers and paper-rolling. Before and after the 4 weeks of treatment, all of the subjects were assessed using the Fugl-Meyer sensory assessment (FMA-S), the Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA), the Modified Barthel Index (MBI), and the physical component summary scale (PCS) and mental component summary scale (MCS) of the 36-item short-form health survey.Results:After the treatment, significant improvement was observed in their average scores of all three groups in all of the assessments. Groups B and C showed significantly greater improvement in the average FMA-S, HAMA and MBI scores than group A. And the average HAMA and MCS scores of group C were significantly better than those of group B.Conclusion:Handicraft training delivered over the Internet can improve the sensory functioning, mental status and life quality of stroke survivors in the sequelae stage with sensory disturbance.
