The gastrointestinal tract is chronically inflamed in ulcerative colitis (UC), which has a complicated etiology involving immunological, environmental, and genetic factors. The inflammatory response that is typical of UC is significantly regulated via the nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB) signaling pathway. Latest research has displayed that NF-κB signaling is controlled by three main types of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs): circular RNAs (circRNAs), long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), and microRNAs (miRNAs).

Methods: After preparing the hydroalcoholic extract of EA, MTT and scratch tests were used to determine the effect of EA on the viability and migration of HDFs. In addition, the quantitative polymerase chain reaction (q-PCR) was conducted to evaluate the impact of EA on the expression of wound healing-related genes in HDFs.
Breast cancer is a molecularly heterogeneous disease and the most common female malignancy. In recent years, therapy approaches have evolved to accommodate molecular diversity, with a focus on more biologically based therapies to minimize negative consequences. To regulate cell fate in human breast cells, the Hippo signaling pathway has been associated with the alpha subtype of estrogen receptors.

Under some circumstances, miRNAs may act as tumorigenic and maybe anti-oncogenes. Tumor aspects such as maintaining proliferating signals, bypassing development suppressors, delaying apoptosis, stimulating metastasis and invasion, and promoting angiogenesis have been linked to dysfunctional and dysregulated miRNAs.

Recent indications have highlighted their important roles in a variety of pathophysiological conditions as well as human malignancies. Dysregulated miRNAs act as tumor suppressor genes or oncogenes in a variety of cancers.

This study aims to investigate the HSCs homing factors in bone marrow (BM) donors of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) patients following granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) injection, as well as the G-CSF effects on BM transplantation quality in these patients. To mobilize HSCs into peripheral blood, G-CSF was used for ALL patient's BM donors.
