Triggering Receptor Expressed on Myeloid Cell-2 Protects PC12 Cells Injury by Inhibiting BV2 Microglial Activation.

Microglia play a crucial role in the activation of immune defense mechanism as the resident macrophages in the central nervous system (CNS). Microglia can eliminate damaged neurons, plaques, and other infectious agents. Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cell-2 (TREM-2) speculates to be beneficial in preventing inflammation-induced bystander damage of neurons.

NRAL mediates cisplatin resistance in hepatocellular carcinoma via miR-340-5p/Nrf2 axis.

Recent studies have shown that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play a pivotal role in the pathogenesis and progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the biological action and potential mechanism of liver cancer cell drug resistance have not been clearly clarified. In this study, lncRNAs were screened and differentially expressed in parental and cisplatin-resistant cell lines (HepG2 and HepG2/CDDP).
