Résumé
Lung cancer is currently the leading malignant tumor in China, which seriously endangers people's health. Nowadays, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has played an increasingly important role in the comprehensive treatment of lung cancer. It has unique advantages in promoting postoperative recovery, reducing the side effects of radiotherapy and chemotherapy, and effectively prolonging the lifetime of patients. Qingzao Jiufei Tang is mainly used to treat the syndrome of Qi-Yin deficiency due to dryness-heat injury to the lungs. The experimental and clinical studies have confirmed that Qingzao Jiufei Tang has a good anti-lung cancer effect and broad application prospects. In this paper, we reviewed relevant literatures through China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Weipu Data, Wanfang Data, PubMed and other databases in recent years, and found a few reports on the anti-lung cancer effect of Qingzao Jiufei Tang. There was still a lack of systematic and comprehensive explanation for its specific mechanism of action against lung cancer. This paper systematically summarized the clinical application of Qingzao Jiufei Tang against lung cancer in recent years, as well as its effects through cell-related signaling pathways and energy metabolism against lung cancer cells. It is clear that this decoction can significantly inhibit the signaling pathways of epithelial growth factor receptor (EGFR), nuclear transcription factor kappa B (NF-κB)/intercellular cell adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), and Janus kinase 2 (JAK2)/signal transducers and activators of transcription 3 (STAT3) of the lung cells. It could also inhibit energy metabolism of tumor cells, and reduce the production of relevant metabolites. This will provide new ideas for the clinical application of Qingzao Jiufei Tang against lung cancer.
Résumé
The inflammatory cytokines of IL-1β and TNF-α participate in the process of intervertebral disc degeneration is focused by the spine surgeons. Inflammatory cytokines represented by IL-1β and TNF-α act as the key factors in the process of intervertebral disc degeneration resulting in low back pain and radicular symptoms. Annulus fibrosus and nucleus pulposus can secrete TNF-α and IL-1β under the stimulation of mechanical injury, overstressed, genetic susceptibility and infection. The mechanism of inflammatory cytokines in intervertebral disc degeneration needs further investigation. The emphasis of researches will be on the inflammatory cytokines in the regulation of mechanism in the intervertebral disc degeneration, molecular targeted therapy, cell signaling pathways and the best time of anti-inflammatory therapy providing more evidence in the clinical application.
Résumé
The bronchopulmonary dysplasia(BPD),one of the most common complications in prema-ture infants,has become one of the most difficult problems in neonatal intensive care unit. The molecular mecha-nism of BPD is extremely complicated,of which the pathogenesis process requires the participation of many sig-nal transduction pathways. This article summarizes the probable relationship of mitogen activated protein kinases signal pathways,nuclear factor-κB pathways,transforming growth factor beta pathways,Wnt pathways,mTOR pathways with BPD.
