Quercetin promotes osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells by modulating the miR-214-3p/Wnt3a/β-catenin signaling pathway.

Postmenopausal osteoporosis, primarily driven by estrogen deficiency, is predominantly mediated through estrogen receptors such as ERα. However, the underlying mechanisms necessitate further investigation. In this study, we established an ERα-deficient model in rBMSCs to elucidate the role of ERα in osteogenic differentiation and miRNA expression profiles.

20(R)-Panaxatriol enhances METTL3-mediated mA modification of STUB1 to inhibit autophagy and exert antitumor effects in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer cells.

Background: Aberrant activation of autophagy in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) has led researchers to investigate potential therapeutic strategies targeting this process. The regulation of autophagy is significantly influenced by METTL3. Our previous research has shown that the Panax ginseng-derived compound, 20(R)-panaxatriol (PT), has potential as an anti-tumor agent.

Bone-Differentiation-Associated Circ-Spen Regulates Death of Mouse Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells by Inhibiting Apoptosis and Promoting Autophagy.

The role of estrogen receptor β () in bone health is closely associated with its function in vivo, and mice have been widely utilized to explore the related influences. In this study, female mice were established to investigate the differential expression of circular RNAs (circRNAs) by RNA-Sequencing (RNA-Seq). Among these circRNAs, mmu_circ_0011379 (named Circ-Spen) exhibited high expression in female mice.

Efficacy and safety of combined Chinese and Western medicine in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis: a prospective, multicenter cohort study.

To conduct a real-world evaluation of the efficacy and safety of combined Chinese and Western medicine in treating knee osteoarthritis (KOA). A multicenter, prospective cohort study design was employed, enrolling 450 KOA patients (Kellgren-Lawrence score of 3 or less). The patients were divided into a Western medicine treatment group (WM group) and a combined Western and traditional Chinese medicine treatment group (WM-CM group).

A mechanistic review of chinese medicine polyphenols on bone formation and resorption.

Bone reconstruction includes a steady state system of bone formation and bone absorption. This tight coupling requires subtle coordination between osteoblasts and osteoclasts. If this balance is broken, it will lead to bone mass loss, bone density reduction, and bone metabolic diseases, such as osteoporosis.
