Effects of hsa-mir-145-5p on the Regulation of msln Expression in Colorectal Adenocarcinoma.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common gastrointestinal cancers in the world, and its incidence is increasing all over the world including China. In recent years, research data show that some miRNAs are differentially expressed in cancer tissues, and their expression is closely contributed with the prognosis of CRC. Microarray technology was used, and 179 miRNAs were screened out with significantly altered expression in CRC tissues compared with adjacent tissues.

Screening key prognostic factors and constructing survival prognostic risk prediction model based on ceRNA network in early lung adenocarcinoma.

Background: We aim to discover some prognostic factors, provide a basis for discovering molecular markers, and provide a basis for molecular features of early lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) to predict patient prognosis.

Methods: Sequence data of LUAD were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database to screen out differentially expressed lncRNAs, miRNAs, and mRNAs (DERs). DERs were identified using R software's limma package.

Tetomilast attenuates elastase-induced pulmonary emphysema through inhibition of oxidative stress in rabbits.

Tetomilast was originally identified as a potent inhibitor of superoxide production in human neutrophils, and is of interest because it may relieve oxidative stress related to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Our objective was to determine whether tetomilast effectively protects against the development of porcine pancreatic elastase (PPE)-induced emphysema in rabbits. Rabbits were divided into three groups (sham n=19, PPE n=19, PPE/Tetomilast n=18).
