miR-106b-5p induces immune imbalance of Treg/Th17 in immune thrombocytopenic purpura through NR4A3/Foxp3 pathway.

Background: Immune imbalance of regulatory T cells (Treg)/T helper 17 cells (Th17) contributes to the development of immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP). The dysregulation of miRNAs is important in the development of ITP. However, the role of miR-106b-5p in Treg/Th17 imbalance remains unknown in ITP.

[Effects of Notch signal on the expressions of HIF-α and autophagy- related genes Beclin1, LC3I, LC3II in oxygen-glucose deprivation induced myocardial cell injury].

Objective: To investigate the effects of Notch signal on hypoxic induction factor (HIF-1α) and autophagy-associated genes Beclin1, LC3I, LC3II in oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) induced myocardial cell injury.

Methods: The OGD model was established using hypoxic culture box and hypoglycemic DMEM medium. The cells were divided into normal control group, OGD group, OGD + NC siRNA group, OGD + Notch1 siRNA group and OGD + HIF-1α siRNA group.

[Chilling damage comprehensive assessment methods for rice.].

Based on the grey correlation analysis method, the chilling damage inducing factors and yield structure traits of rice in different growth stages, and the yield structure traits and final yield of rice were regarded as two grey systems. By seeking the grey relations of the grey systems and using the multi level grey correlation analysis method, the comprehensive assessment model of rice chil-ling damage was constructed, and the comprehensive assessment indices of chilling damages in sepa rate stages were established. The rice chilling damages at 27 stations in Northeast China from 1961 to 2015 were assessed separately.

NAD(P)H quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) genetic C609T polymorphism is associated with the risk of digestive tract cancer: a meta-analysis based on 21 case-control studies.

The relationships between the NAD(P)H quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) C609T polymorphism and the risk of digestive tract (DT) cancer are controversial. Therefore, we performed a meta-analysis to assess the relationships. The databases of Medline, Embase, and WanFang (updated to 15 May 2011) were reviewed.

System review and metaanalysis of the relationships between five metabolic gene polymorphisms and colorectal adenoma risk.

The relationships between some metabolic (including EPHX1, GSTs and NQO1) gene polymorphisms and colorectal adenoma (CRA) risk have been commonly studied, and no conclusions are available up to now. Therefore, we quantitatively studied the relationships by a metaanalysis. The databases of Medline and Embase were retrieved updated to June 15th, 2011.
