Professor Pei Ruixia’s Experience in Treating Diabetes with the “Harmony Method”

This paper introduces professor Pei Ruixia’s experience in the treatment of diabetes with the “harmony method.” Professor Pei believes that the pathogenic factors of diabetes are mainly divided into emotional and dietary factors, and the essence of diabetes are not in harmony of the human body. Thus, its treatment is to “make it harmonious.” It is good to use the method of “clearing and harmonizing,” appropriately using Xiaochaihu decoction, paying attention to the compatibility of drugs, and taking care of spleen and stomach, as well as Qi.

Environmental dampness is one factor which can cause human diseases. The effects of exposure to humidity on human immune function are diverse and numerous. In the theory of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), dampness is defined as one of the major pathogenic factors in the human body. It is divided into “external dampness” and “internal dampness.” However the molecular mechanism leading to humidity-induced immunosuppression is obscure. In the present study, we investigated the expression of the T-cell antigen receptor variableβ(TCRVβ) subfamilies in rats which were fed in different humid environment. And the expression levels of the TCRVβsubfamilies were detected using FQ-PCR. We found that the dampness might reduce the immunological recognition function of rats. And the obstruction of the immunological recognition function might be caused by internal dampness rather than external dampness.

Cancer Immunotherapies

The human microbiota and its functional interaction with the human body were recently returned to the spotlight of the scientific community. In light of the extensive implementation of newer and increasingly precise genome sequencing technologies, bioinformatics, and culturomic, we now have an extraordinary ability to study the microorganisms that live within the human body. Most of the recent studies only focused on the interaction between the intestinal microbiota and one other factor. Considering the complexity of gut microbiota and its role in the pathogenesis of numerous cancers, our aim was to investigate how microbiota is affected by intestinal microenvironment and how microenvironment alterations may influence the response to immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). In this context, we show how diet is emerging as a fundamental determinant of microbiota’s community structure and function. Particularly, we describe the role of certain dietary factors, as well as the use of probiotics, prebiotics, postbiotics, and antibiotics in modifying the human microbiota. The modulation of gut microbiota may be a secret weapon to potentiate the efficacy of immunotherapies. In addition, this review sheds new light on the possibility of administering fecal microbiota transplantation to modulate the gut microbiota in cancer treatment. These concepts and how these findings can be translated into the therapeutic response to cancer immunotherapies will be presented.

Important Disease

Diabetes is a serious life-long disease caused by the insufficient production of insulin hormones in the human body or the inefficient use of the insulin hormone in the human body. Diabetes is becoming more common day by day and it is a very important disease. Even so, people do not take diabetes seriously because they do not have enough information about diabetes. Also, most people cannot realize they have diabetes. For this reason, most of the studies in the literature have focused only on the diagnosis of diabetes. Diabetes treatment is an extremely costly process. In the treatment of diabetes, it is primarily aimed to raise the awareness of the patients' relatives and the patient. Training studies are carried out to raise the awareness of patient relatives and the patient. This training, which is given to raise awareness of patients and their relatives, is the most important and indispensable step of the diabetes treatment process. So, this education will achieve its goal more easily and quickly. In the prepared game, there will be information about diabetes prevention methods and diabetes disease. In case of doing factors that may cause diabetes in the game, the symptoms of the disease will be shown to the player. With the help of award-winning quizzes and short information in the game, a fun learning process is aimed for children. The longterm goals of the study are to raise awareness among nonpatients and reduce the frequency of occurrence of diabetes disease with the help of created awareness.

Synthetic Work

Hydroxyapatite bioceramics has attracted many material scientists as it is the main constituent of the bone and the teeth in human body. The synthesis of the bioceramics has been performed for years. Nowadays, the synthetic work is not only focused on the hydroapatite but also on the fluorapatite and chlorapatite bioceramics since later materials have also biological compatibility with human tissues; and they may also be very promising for clinic purpose. However, in comparison of the synthetic bioceramics with natural one on microstructure, a great differences were observed according to our previous results. We have investigated these differences further in this work since they are very important to appraise the synthetic bioceramics for their clinic application.The synthetic hydroxyapatite and chlorapatite were prepared according to A. Krajewski and A. Ravaglioli and their recent work. The briquettes from different hydroxyapatite or chlorapatite powders were fired in a laboratory furnace at the temperature of 900-1300°C. The samples of human enamel selected for the comparison with synthetic bioceramics were from Chinese adult teeth.
