Dexmedetomidine-mediated improvement of perioperative neurocognitive disorders by miR-184-3p-mediated NLRP3.

Background: Perioperative neurocognitive disorders (PND) is a neurological complication in the perioperative period, which may lead to severe poor prognosis. Dexmedetomidine (Dex) is a commonly used sedative in the perioperative period. However, the effect of intraoperative anesthetic Dex on PND remains complicated and confusing.

One-Year Prospective Follow-up of Women With INOCA and MINOCA at a Canadian Women's Heart Centre.

Background: Many women with cardiac chest pain and ischemia or myocardial infarction have no obstructive coronary artery disease (INOCA or MINOCA). Studies suggest that these patients have a decreased quality of life and are at increased risk of cardiovascular events. Our study reports 1-year quality of life, frequency of angina, and outcomes following entry into a multidisciplinary Women's Heart Centre (WHC).

MiR-326 regulates the proliferation and apoptosis of endometrial cancer by targeting Bcl-2.

Aim: MiR-326 has been investigated to be correlated with multiple types of malignancies; however, the role of miR-326 in endometrial cancer (EC) remains rarely reported. The aim of our research is to investigate the functions of miR-326 in EC and the potential molecular mechanism.

Methods: RT-qPCR was performed to compare the expression of miR-326 and Bcl-2 in normal endometrial epithelial cell line (End1/e6e7) and EC cells lines (HEC-1A, Ishikawa), respectively.

Downregulation of the long noncoding RNA SNHG1 inhibits tumor cell migration and invasion by sponging miR-195 through targeting Cdc42 in oesophageal cancer.

Despite the poor prognosis of oesophageal cancer (EC), the molecular mechanisms of EC are still unclear. In recent years, role of lncRNA in cancer development attracted much attention. The present study aimed to investigate the effects of the long noncoding RNA SNHG1 on the migration and invasion of EC cells and the possible mechanisms involved.

Whole transcriptome sequencing reveals dexmedetomidine-improves postoperative cognitive dysfunction in rats via modulating lncRNA.

The aim of this study was to explore the underlying mechanism and function of dexmedetomidine (Dex)-regulated long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in improving postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) in rats. The established POCD model, Dex treatment model in rats, Morris water maze testing, and HE staining assays were used to evaluate the efficacy of Dex in POCD treatment in rats. Hippocampus samples of rats from the POCD group and the Dex group were used for lncRNA sequencing.
