OTUD1 enhances gastric cancer aggressiveness by deubiquitinating EBV-encoded protein BALF1 to stabilize the apoptosis inhibitor Bcl-2.

The Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is implicated in several cancers, including EBV-associated gastric cancer (EBVaGC). This study focuses on EBV-encoded BALF1 (BamH1 A fragment leftward reading frame 1), a key apoptosis regulator in EBV-related cancers, whose specific impact on EBVaGC was previously unknown. Our findings indicate that BALF1 overexpression in gastric cancer cells significantly enhances their proliferation, migration, and resistance to chemotherapy-induced apoptosis, confirming BALF1's oncogenic potential.

The aim of this study was to identify circulating proteins that were associated with blood pressure (BP), SCAD and aortic dilation.

The protective effect of licochalcone A against inflammation injury of primary dairy cow claw dermal cells induced by lipopolysaccharide.

Laminitis is one of the most important and intractable diseases in dairy cows, which can lead to enormous economic losses. Although many scholars have conducted a large number of studies on laminitis, the therapeutic test of medicinal plants in vitro is really rare. Licochalcone A is proved to possess anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant properties.

Deferasirox combination with eltrombopag shows anti-myelodysplastic syndrome effects by enhancing iron deprivation-related apoptosis.

Iron overload (IO) affected the survival of patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). Deferasirox (DFX) is widely used in patients with MDS for iron chelation therapy, but is not suitable for MDS patients with severe thrombocytopenia. Eltrombopag (ELT) is a type of thrombopoietin receptor (TPOR) analog used in the treatment of thrombocytopenia.

BHBA regulates the expressions of lipid synthesis and oxidation genes in sheep hepatocytes through the AMPK pathway.

Pregnancy toxemia (PT) is the most frequent metabolic disease of sheep during late pregnancy, which can lead to enormous economic losses in sheep farm industry.
