One new berberine from the branches and leaves of Polyalthia obliqua Hook.f. & Thomson.

One new alkaloid consanguine B (1), together with 10 known alkaloids (2-11), were isolated from ethanol extract of the branches and leaves of Polyalthia obliqua Hook.f. & Thomson collected in the Hainan Province, China.

Upregulation of long non-coding RNA TUG1 correlates with poor prognosis and disease status in osteosarcoma.

The pathogenesis of osteosarcoma involves complex genetic and epigenetic factors. This study was to explore the impact and clinical relevance of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA), Taurine up-regulated gene 1 (TUG1) on patients with osteosarcoma. Seventy-six osteosarcoma tissues and matched adjacent normal tissues were included for analysis.
