Alterations in the regulators of RNA methylation modifications, such as N7-methylguanosine (m7G), have been implicated in a variety of diseases. Therefore, the analysis and identification of disease-related m7G modification regulators will accelerate advances in understanding disease pathogenesis. However, the implications of alterations in the regulators of m7G modifications remain poorly understood in prostate adenocarcinoma.

Compared with chemotherapy, nivolumab has shown advantages of good efficacy and safety in the treatment of a variety of tumors. However, due to its short time of use in China and lack of safety experience, clinical understanding of its adverse reactions has not been sufficiently elucidated.

Methods: The study included 67 pregnant women with GDM and 60 pregnant women with normal glucose tolerance as control group. The serum miR-2467 level of pregnant women was detected by RT-PCR.
Objective: Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are emerging as a class of important biological regulators. lncRNAs participate in diverse biological functions and disease processes, especially those leading to tumorigenesis. In this study, we investigate the role of linc00261 in the pathogenesis of breast cancer.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFUp to accomplishment of this study, the role of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in breast cancer has been investigated in several researches. Nevertheless, its association with the chemosensitivity of cancer was little known. Therefore, this study is focused on lncRNA GAS5 and its influence in the chemosensitivity of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC).

A novel actinomycete, designated strain S6R2A4-9, was isolated from a soil sample collected from a karst cave in Henan Province, China, and subjected to a polyphasic taxonomic study. This isolate grew optimally at 25-28 °C, pH 6.5-8.

MACC1 expression was significantly related to histological differentiation (p<0.001), UICC stage (p=0.

Our results showed that miR-378a-3p and miR-378a-5p expression were dramatically lower in CRC cell lines and tissues than that in adjacent normal colorectal mucosal tissues, respectively. MiR-378a-3p and miR-378a-5p expression were significantly associated with histological differentiation and TNM stage, respectively.

Experimental Design: A total of 108 cases of EFT were retrospectively analysed. p53 and HDGF expression were detected using immunohistochemistry, and the relationships between p53 expression and HDGF expression and clinicopathological features of EFT were analysed.
We sought to investigate the clinicopathological significance and biological function of hepatoma-derived growth factor (HDGF) in Ewing's sarcoma. Our results showed that HDGF expression is up-regulated in Ewing's sarcoma. Nuclear HDGF expression is significantly associated with tumour volume (p < 0.

Our results showed that MACC1 expression was higher in NPC cells and tissues than that in normal nasopharyngeal cells and chronic inflammation of the nasopharynx tissues, respectively. MACC1 expression was closely related to the clinical stage (p = 0.

A calibration method for Raman spectroscopic quantitative analysis of binary alkaline silicate glasses is proposed. By applying ab initio quantum chemistry simulation, Raman optical activities (ROA) of various cluster units consisting of silicon-oxygen tetrahedra (SiOT) with different number of non-bridging oxygen (NBO) can be obtained. Thus, experimental results could be calibrated in order to reflect and represent directly the true relative density of various silicon-oxygen tetrahedra existing inside the silicate glasses.

Cuspidine plays an important role in conventional metallurgical continuous casting mould flux. An UV laser source was used to record its ambient and high temperature Raman spectra (temperature range: 298-1 723 K) combined with a charge coupled device (CCD) detector. Both increasing and decreasing processes as well as characteristic spectra and shifts in wavenumber were observed.
