BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to explore the effect and mechanism of tanshinone II A on proliferation, apoptosis, and migration of human colon cancer cells. MATERIAL AND METHODS CCK-8 approach was carried out to evaluate proliferation after applying various levels of tanshinone II A to SW620 colon carcinoma cells. Flow cytometry (FC) was used to assess apoptosis.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFLong non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are emerging as a fundamental class of biological effect or molecules that perform pivotal functions in the regulation of the genome. With advances in bioinformatics and genomics, extensive identification and characterization of lncRNAs is now possible. They regulate cellular growth, differentiation and apoptosis.

Methods: A total of 130 patients with knee OA were selected and randomly divided into an observation group and a control group (n=65). The control group was treated by segmental resection in combination with joint prosthesis, and the observation group was treated by segmental resection and decompression combined with joint prosthesis.
