Both of them have identical characteristics in the mechanism of production and action. Many evidences indicated that NO and CO play important roles in physiological and pathophysiological processes in the prostate. This review highlights the current ideas on localization and function of them in the prostate. We also discussed the relationship between the gaseous messengers and the prostatic diseases.展开更多
Twist相关蛋白1(Twist-related protein 1,TWIST1)是参与上皮-间充质转化(Epithelium-mesenchymal transition,EMT)和乳腺癌进展的重要转录因子。而以TWIST1为靶点的乳腺癌分子靶向药物研究是一个热门领域。近十年的研究中,出现了如微小...Twist相关蛋白1(Twist-related protein 1,TWIST1)是参与上皮-间充质转化(Epithelium-mesenchymal transition,EMT)和乳腺癌进展的重要转录因子。而以TWIST1为靶点的乳腺癌分子靶向药物研究是一个热门领域。近十年的研究中,出现了如微小RNA(microRNA,miRNA)、结合小分子干扰核糖核酸(Small interfering RNA,siRNA)的纳米微粒、槲皮素、姜黄素等一系列能够直接影响TWIST1或者通过影响TWIST1上游分子或其他未知途径影响TWIST1发挥功能的药物。现综述近十年的相关研究,以期对以TWIST1为靶点的乳腺癌分子靶向药物研究做一个简要梳理。展开更多
