Hepatocellular carcinoma has become one of the most shared cancers in the whole world because of its high morbidity, poor survival rate, and low recovery rate. LncRNA DIO3 opposite strand upstream RNA (DIO3OS) has been reported to be obviously important in several human cancers, while its biological function in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains unclear. Here, DIO3OS gene expression data and clinical information of HCC patients were extracted from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database and the university of California Santa Cruz (UCSC) Xena database.

It has been reported that oxidative stress plays a prominent role in diabetic macrovascular diseases. 3,4‑Dihydroxyacetophenone (3,4‑DHAP) has been found to have a variety of biological activities. However, few studies have assessed the antioxidant capacity of 3,4‑DHAP and the underlying mechanisms.

Nitric oxide (NO) has aroused wide interest in the treating infected wounds due to its characteristic functionalities. However, its utilization is limited due to its volatile properties, high reactivity, direct potential toxicity, and byproducts of NO donors limited its application. Herein, endogenously NO donor S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO) was connected covalently to polydopamine nanoparticles (PDA-GSNO NPs) to minimize the loss of NO in aqueous medium.
