Immune infiltration is associated with pan-cancer prognostic biomarker RING finger protein 187.

Cancer is associated with the highest mortality rate globally. While life-saving screening and treatments exist, better awareness is needed. RNF187, an E3 ligase regulating biological processes, belongs to the RING domain-containing E3 ligase family.

Changes in Bone Metabolism After Sleeve Gastrectomy Versus Gastric Bypass: a Meta-Analysis.

Background: Gastric bypass (GB) and sleeve gastrectomy (SG) are two common types of bariatric surgery that carry many potential complications. Among these complications, bone metabolism-related diseases have attracted substantial attention; however, no meta-analysis of them has been performed to date.

Methods: We searched PubMed, Web of Science, The Cochrane Library, and Embase to identify relevant studies published before January 2019.

Ghrelin Receptor Is Required for the Effect of Nesfatin-1 on Glucose Metabolism.

Studies of nesfatin-1 in glucose metabolism have become a topic of interest recently, however, the specific receptor for nesfatin-1 has not yet been identified. Some studies hinted at a connection between nesfatin-1 and the ghrelin receptor, growth hormone secretagogue receptor. Therefore, we aimed to study the role of GHSR in the glycemic effects of nesfatin-1 as well as its downstream pathways.

Circulating Nesfatin-1 Levels and Type 2 Diabetes: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

The role of nesfatin-1 in glucose homeostasis has been investigated previously. However, although numerous studies have examined the relationships between circulating nesfatin-1 levels and type 2 diabetes, the conclusions are contradictory. We aimed to probe the relationship between circulating nesfatin-1 levels and type 2 diabetes by meta-analysis.
