Research Abstract

1)Interleukin-6 acts a positive regulator in androgen receptor signaling in pancreatic cancer cell lines, suggesting that interleukin-6 and androgen receptor signaling might play important roles in the progression of pancreatic carcinogenesis. 2) Hepatitis B virus affects nuclear receptors and their related signal transduction. They also might be involved in replication of hepatitis B virus and hepatitis B virus-related hepatocarcinogenesis.
