Knockdown of lncRNA CCAT1 Inhibits the Progression of Colorectal Cancer via hsa-miR-4679 Mediating the Downregulation of GNG10.

Great concerns have raised crucial roles of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) on colorectal cancer progression due to the increasing number of studies in cancer development. Previous studies reveal that lncRNA CCAT1 plays an important role in the progression of a variety of cancers. However, the role of lncRNA CCAT1 in colorectal cancer is still unclear.

Ocular manifestations of multiple sclerosis in patients from three countries: A Web-based survey.

Objective: This study evaluates the epidemiological characteristics, ophthalmological manifestations, and different therapeutic options available for patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) in China, Spain, and Cuba.

Methods: A self-designed questionnaire was used to conduct a comparable descriptive cross-sectional study on patients with MS. The survey included patients' demographic data, ocular manifestations related to MS, and treatment methodology followed in the three countries.

[Synthesis and spectral characterization of boron complexes of bis-schiff base from acylpyrazolone].

Three novel bis-schiff base complexes [B(PMaFP)2en]Ac, [B(PMaFP)2pen]Ac and [B(PMTHP)2en]Ac have been synthesized, where (HPMalphaFP)2 en = N,N'-bis [(1-phenyl-3-methyl-5-oxo-4-pyrazolinyl) alpha-furylmethylidyne] ethylenediimine, (HPMalphaFP)2pen = N,N'-bis[(1-phenyl-3-methyl-5-oxo-4-pyrazolinyl) alpha-furylmethylidyne]-o-phenylenediimine and (HPMTHP)2en = N,N'-bis[(1-phenyl-3-methyl-5-oxo-4-pyrazolinyl)-2-thenoylmethylidyne] ethylenediimine. They were characterized by elemental analysis, IR, UV-Vis, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and molar conductance measurements. The results show that the bis-schiff base is a quadridentate ligand and boron is four-coordinated in the complexes.

[Synthesis and spectral characterization of U(VI) and Th(IV) complexes of thenoylpyrazolone-ethylenediamine].

Two novel bis-schiff base complexes [UO2 (PMTHP)2en] and [Th(PMTHP)2en(NO3)2] have been synthesized, where (PMTHP)2en = N,N'-bis[(1-phenyl-3-methyl-5-oxo-5-pyrazolinyl)- 2-thenoylmethylidyne] ethylenediamine, and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, UV-Vis, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and molar conductance measurements. The results show that the bis-schiff base is a quadridentate ligand and the nitrate a bidentate ligand, and the uranyl and thorium ions exhibit coordination of six and eight in the complexes, respectively.
