The biological function of miR-128-2 in hepatocellular carcinoma and its molecular mechanism functioning.

Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) represents the major type of primary liver cancers, which is a most prevalent malignancy, as well as seriously threatens people's life and health. MiR-128-2 was reported to be associated with several human cancers, and is participated in the pathogenesis and development of cancers. Our research was performed to explore the expression profile and diagnostic significance of miR-128-2 in HCC.

Propofol synergizes with circAPBB2 to protect against hypoxia/reoxygenation-induced oxidative stress, inflammation, and apoptosis of human cardiomyocytes.

Background: Myocardial injury is the main manifestation of cardiovascular diseases, and previous studies have shown that propofol (PPF) regulates myocardial injury. However, the mechanism of PPF in regulating myocardial injury remains to be further explored. This work aims to analyze the effects of PPF on human cardiomyocyte injury and the underlying mechanism.

Qualitative and quantitative analysis of phenolic compounds by UPLC-MS/MS and biological activities of Pholidota chinensis Lindl.

Pholidota chinensis Lindl. is commonly used as functional tea or folk medicine in China, but few studies have been conducted on its phenolic composition and bioactivities. This study was aimed to investigate the phenolic profiles of P.

Dynamic life cycle economic and environmental assessment of residential solar photovoltaic systems.

With the increasing implementation of solar photovoltaic (PV) systems, comprehensive methods and tools are required to dynamically assess their economic and environmental costs and benefits under varied spatial and temporal contexts. This study integrated system dynamics modeling with life cycle assessment and life cycle cost assessment to evaluate the cumulative energy demand, carbon footprint, water footprint, and life cycle cost of residential grid-connected (GC) and standalone (SA) solar PV systems. The system dynamics model was specifically used for simulating the hourly solar energy generation, use, and storage during the use phase of the solar PVs.
