MiR-659-3p inhibits osteosarcoma progression and metastasis by inhibiting cell proliferation and invasion via targeting SRPK1.

Objective: Osteosarcoma is the most common primary bone cancer that affects mostly children and young adults. Despite the advances in osteosarcoma treatment, the long-term survival rate of metastatic patients has not significantly improved in the past few decades, thus demonstrating the need for novel therapeutic targets or methods to improve metastatic osteosarcoma treatment. In this study we aimed to elucidate the role of miR-659-3p and SRPK1 in osteosarcoma.

Hippocampus RNA Sequencing of Pentylenetetrazole-Kindled Rats and Upon Treatment of Novel Chemical Q808.

The expression of genes altered in epilepsy remains incomplete, particularly in the hippocampus, which exhibits exquisite vulnerability to epilepsy. Q808 is an innovation chemical compound that has potent anti-convulsant effect. Exploring its mechanism can not only explore the pathogenesis of epilepsy but also provide a theoretical basis for its clinical application.

Leaf hydraulics coordinated with leaf economics and leaf size in mangrove species along a salinity gradient.

Independence among leaf economics, leaf hydraulics and leaf size confers plants great capability in adapting to heterogeneous environments. However, it remains unclear whether the independence of the leaf traits revealed across species still holds within species, especially under stressed conditions. Here, a suite of traits in these dimensions were measured in leaves and roots of a typical mangrove species, , which grows in habitats with a similar sunny and hot environment but different soil salinity in southern China.

Identification of PSMD14 as a potential novel prognosis biomarker and therapeutic target for osteosarcoma.

Background: Osteosarcoma is the most common primary bone tumor. The survival rate of osteosarcoma patients has not significantly increased in the past decades. Uncovering the mechanisms of malignancy, progression, and metastasis will shed light on the development of new therapeutic targets and treatment for osteosarcoma.

Predictive Study of the Active Ingredients and Potential Targets of for the Treatment of Osteosarcoma via Network Pharmacology.

Osteosarcoma (OS) is the most common type of primary bone tumor in children and adults. Dangshen () is a traditional Chinese medicine commonly used in the treatment of OS worldwide. However, the molecular mechanisms of Dangshen in OS remain unclear.

[Morphological traits of indigenous field carps maintained in traditional rice-based farming systems.].

Rice-fish is an important traditional farming system. In the rice-fish system, common carp (Cyprinus carpio) is the major species raised in paddy field where the environment is characterized by shadow water. Under a long-term of natural selection and artificial selection, the carp would adapt to the paddy field environment.

[Effects of fish on field resource utilization and rice growth in rice-fish coculture].

Rice field can provide habitat for fish and other aquatic animals. Rice-fish coculture can increase rice yield and simultaneously reduce the use of chemicals through reducing rice pest occurrence and nutrient complementary use. However, how fish uses food sources (e.

[Meta-analysis of stable carbon and nitrogen isotopic enrichment factors for aquatic animals].

Isotopic enrichment factor (Δ, the difference between the δ value of food and a consumer tissue) is an important parameter in using stable isotope analysis (SIA) to reconstruct diets, characterize trophic relationships, elucidate patterns of resource allocation, and construct food webs. Isotopic enrichment factor has been considered as a constancy value across a broad range of animals. However, recent studies showed that the isotopic enrichment factor differed among various types of animals although the magnitude of variation was not clear.

Rapid and sensitive detection of vinorelbine in the urine of tumor patients by capillary electrophoresis with tris(2,2'-bipyridyl)ruthenium(II)-based electrochemiluminescence assay.

A capillary electrophoresis method coupled with electrochemiluminescence detection for the analysis of vinorelbine (VNB) in the urine of tumor patients was established in this research. Complete determination of VNB was achieved in 8 min using a background electrolyte of 50 mmol/L phosphate buffer (pH 9.0) and a separation voltage of 15 kV.
