Objective: This study aimed to predict the molecular mechanism of baicalein through network pharmacology, cell experiments and molecular docking. The goal was to elucidate the mechanism for the treatment of mild cognitive impairment.

Materials And Methods: The protein-protein interaction network (PPI) and Cytoscape software were used to screen the hub genes of intersection genes, while the therapeutic mechanism of baicalein was predicted through the Gene ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Gene and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis.

Background: Diallyl trisulfide (DATS) is a natural organic sulfur compound isolated from garlic that has good anticancer activity according to many previous reports. There are many studies pointing out that DATS can downregulate expression of the glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78), which is associated with poor prognosis and drug resistance in various types of human cancers. However, it remains unknown whether DATS has the same effect on human osteosarcoma cells.

Background: During previous studies, microRNA-224 (miR-224) was frequently investigated and discovered to be of vital significance to prognosis of patients with various cancers. However, its accurate prognostic value has not been estimated worldwide. Herein, we performed meta-analysis to assess its potential predictive value in a variety of human tumors.
