High Expression Level of TRIP6 is Correlated with Poor Prognosis in Colorectal Cancer and Promotes Tumor Cell Proliferation and Migration.

Globally, colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the leading causes of health problems. More reliable molecular biomarkers for early diagnosis in CRC patients are needed. A crucial role for thyroid hormone receptor interacting protein 6 (TRIP6) is played in tumorigenesis and tumor growth.

Identification and validation of non-coding RNA-mediated high expression of IQGAP3 in poor prognosis of lung adenocarcinoma.

Background: The primary reason for tumor-related deaths worldwide is lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). The oncogene IQ motif-containing GTPase activating protein 3 (IQGAP3) is crucial for contributing to tumor initiation and progression. However, the precise function and molecular mechanism of IQGAP3 in LUAD remain unknown.

Investigating the Alleviating Effects of Bacillus cereus Administration on Colitis through Gut Microbiota Modulation.

Gut microbiota dysbiosis is thought to exert a role in the progression of colitis. However, the precise standards for probiotic administration in alleviating colitis remain undefined. Most analysis methods rely on limited diversity and abundance of gut microorganisms.

Inhibition of EZH2 prevents acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS)-associated pulmonary fibrosis by regulating the macrophage polarization phenotype.

Background: We recently reported histone methyltransferase enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) as a key epigenetic regulator that contributes to the dysfunction of innate immune responses to sepsis and subsequent lung injury by mediating the imbalance of macrophage polarization. However, the role of EZH2 in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS)-associated fibrosis remains poorly understood.

Methods: In this study, we investigated the role and mechanisms of EZH2 in pulmonary fibrosis in a murine model of LPS-induced ARDS and in ex-vivo cultured alveolar macrophages (MH-S) and mouse lung epithelial cell line (MLE-12) by using 3-deazaneplanocin A (3-DZNeP) and EZH2 the small interfering (si) RNA.

Lymphocyte expression of EZH2 is associated with mortality and secondary infectious complications in sepsis.

Recent studies have shown that epigenetic factors may affect immune responses. We previously reported that histone methyltransferase enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) was involved in the innate inflammatory responses both in animal model of sepsis and in septic patients. In this study, we prospectively evaluated EZH2 expression kinetics in peripheral CD4+ and CD8+ T cells and HLA-DR expression in CD14+ cells from 48 patients with sepsis and 48 healthy controls.

Novel pharmacological inhibition of EZH2 attenuates septic shock by altering innate inflammatory responses to sepsis.

The function of histone methyltransferase enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) in sepsis remains unknown. We reported here that the expression of EZH2 and H3K27me3 was significantly upregulated in the circulation of septic patients, whereas patients who survived presented downregulated the expression of EZH2 on CD14+ monocytes. We further identified increased expression of EZH2 in the circulation, peritoneal fluid, and septic lungs from CLP mice.

Lycium barbarum polysaccharide reduces hyperoxic acute lung injury in mice through Nrf2 pathway.

Introduction: The disruption of the balance between antioxidants and oxidants plays a vital role in the pathogenesis of acute lung injury (ALI). Evidence has shown that Lycium barbarum polysaccharide (LBP) has antioxidant feature. We examined the efficacy and mechanisms of LBP on hyperoxia-induced acute lung injury (ALI) in the present study.

Impaired response inhibition in juvenile delinquents with antisocial personality characteristics: A preliminary ERP study in a Go/Nogo task.

The present study explored the time course of response inhibition function in juvenile delinquents with antisocial personality characteristics (JDAP) by recording the event-related potentials in a Go/Nogo task. Compared to healthy participants, JDAP participants showed similar performance to controls for the Go trails, but worse performance for the Nogo trails. Both N2nogo and P3nogo components showed reduction of the amplitudes in JDAP participants, reflecting the early stage of associated with conflict monitoring and the late stage of inhibition processing, respectively.

Synthesis and characterization of nano-PVP/EuL3 luminescent complex.

Nano-sized rare earth europium [Eu(III)]-benzoic acid [HL] luminescent complex powders have been synthesized in polyvinylpyrrolidone matrix by precipitation method.
