Gene therapy utilizing tumor suppressor gene p53 has been tested in a number of cancers in both preclinical models and clinical trials. Despite the ability of p53 to significantly inhibit tumor growth in preclinical models, it has met with more limited clinical success. This is due, in part, to the observation that a substantial fraction of tumors are resistant to the effects of p53 expression....

Phonons and Electron-Phonon Interactions For the calculation of phonon spectra we used density functional linear response approach implemented using LMTO basis [1, 3], which has successfully produced the lattice dynamics of solids [4] including actinides materials such as plutonium [9] and UO2 [7]. The spin–orbit coupling effect is included in this calculation. A q–grid of 6×6×6 is used to comp...

The classification and differentiation between kidney Yang and Yin deficiency syndromes (KDS-YANG and KDS-YIN) in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) was performed with the approaches of decision tree as well as logistic regression analysis. A clinical epidemiology study on 44 symptoms, 5 tongue signs and 2 pulse signs (TCM diagnostic features) was conducted among 2,765 patients with KDS. Accord...

BACKGROUND One of the biggest obstacles to progress in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) development in Western countries is the difficulty of applying the traditional concepts to the Western medicinal plants, which are not traditionally described in ancient literature. During recent years, new advances in the field of understanding Yin/Yang aspects from a modern bioscientific point of view ha...
