Twice target-recognition mediated exonuclease iii (Exo-iii)-Propelled cascade signal recycling MicroRNA detection system with improved accuracy.

Simple yet specific miRNA detection remains an enormous challenge due to its low abundance in samples and the high similarity among homologous miRNAs. Here, we propose a novel fluorescent approach for miRNA detection with greatly elevated accuracy by utilizing exonuclease-iii (Exo-iii) assisted twice target recognition. The proposed method involves a "Sensing probe" engineered with two loop sections to facilitate dual target miRNA recognition.

Case report: Phosphoinositide 3-kinase inhibitor with fulvestrant in a patient with ER+/HER2- metastatic breast carcinoma induced fatal arrhythmias: a preventable event?

Phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitors have shown synergistic anticancer effects with endocrine therapy against ER+/PIK3CA-mutated breast cancer. PI3K inhibitors for cancer therapy are becoming more common. There is an increasing need to understand their cardiac adverse events.

Protective effects of butorphanol in oleic acid-endotoxin "two-hit" induced rat lung injury by suppression of inflammation and apoptosis.

Butorphanol is widely used as an anesthetic drug, whether butorphanol could reduce organ injury and protecting lung tissue is unknown. This study explored the effects of butorphanol on ALI and investigated its underlying mechanisms. We established a "two-hit" rat model and "two-hit" cell model to prove our hypothesis.

Bioinformatics and experimental studies jointly reveal that Sacubitril Valsartan improves myocardial oxidative stress and inflammation by regulating the MAPK signaling pathway to treat chemotherapy related cardiotoxicity.

Background: CRC is a common but serious complication or sequela of tumor treatment, and new coping strategies are urgently needed. SV is a classic clinical cardiovascular protective drug, which has been widely used in the treatment of heart failure, hypertension and other diseases. It has good therapeutic effect in other cardiovascular diseases such as diabetes cardiomyopathy, ischemic cardiomyopathy and vascular disease, but it has not been proved by research that SV can prevent and treat CRC.

Annexin A1 (Ac2-26)-dependent Fpr2 receptor alleviates sepsis-induced acute kidney injury by inhibiting inflammation and apoptosis in vivo and in vitro.

Objectives: Excessive inflammatory responses and apoptosis are critical pathologies that contribute to sepsis-induced acute kidney injury (SI-AKI). Annexin A1 (ANXA1), a member of the calcium-dependent phospholipid-binding protein family, protects against SI-AKI through its anti-inflammatory and antiapoptotic effects, but the underlying mechanisms are still largely unknown.

Methods: In vivo, SI-AKI mouse models were established via caecal ligation and puncture (CLP) and were then treated with the Ac2-26 peptide of ANXA1 (ANXA1 (Ac2-26)), WRW4 (Fpr2 antagonist) or both.

, as an Independent Risk Factor, Closely Related to the Prognosis of Glioma.

Recent studies have found that cytoskeleton-associated protein 2 like (), an important oncogene, is involved in the biological behavior of many malignant tumors, but its function in the malignant course of glioma has not been confirmed. The main purpose of this study was to clarify the relationship between prognostic clinical characteristics of glioma patients and expression using data collected from the GEPIA, HPA, CGGA, TCGA, and GEO databases. expression was significantly increased in glioma.

[Follow-up results of 117 discharged patients with coronavirus disease 2019 in Wuhan Mobile Cabin Hospital].

Objective: To follow up the cured and discharged patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) from Wuhan Mobile Cabin Hospital and investigate their epidemiological and clinical characteristics as well as 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) nucleic acid test results, so as to provide evidence for epidemic prevention and control.

Methods: The clinical data including epidemiology, clinical symptoms, laboratory and imaging data of 117 patients diagnosed with COVID-19 who were admitted to Wuhan Hongshan Mobile Cabin Hospital from February 6 to March 10, 2020 were collected by telephone follow-up and analyzed, so as to provide evidence for the prevention and treatment of COVID-19.

Results: Among the 117 COVID-19 patients who met the discharge criteria, there were 49 males and 68 females with an average age of (49.

GFI-1 Protects Against Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Inflammatory Responses and Apoptosis by Inhibition of the NF-κB/TNF-α Pathway in H9c2 Cells.

Growth factor independence 1 (Gfi-1) has been widely studied for its anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic effects. However, whether Gfi-1 has similar effects on H9c2 cardiomyocytes has not yet been reported. In this study, we explored the effect of Gfi-1 on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammatory responses and apoptosis in H9c2 cells.

Annexin A1 Mimetic Peptide AC2-26 Inhibits Sepsis-induced Cardiomyocyte Apoptosis through LXA4/PI3K/AKT Signaling Pathway.

The aim of the present study was to explore the effects of annexin A1 (ANXA1) mimetic peptide AC2-26 on sepsis-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis in vivo and in vitro and the underlying mechanisms. In the in vivo study, a rat septic model was established by the cecal ligation and puncture (CLP). The rats were divided into control group, sepsis group and AC2-26 group.

[Effect of multidrug resistant associated protein 4 overexpression on lipopolysaccharide-induced vascular endothelial hyperpermeability and its mechanism].

Objective: To investigate the effect of multidrug resistance protein 4 (MRP4) overexpression on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced vascular endothelial hyperpermeability of rat pulmonary micro-vascular endothelial cells (PMVECs) and its molecule mechanism.

Methods: Three to six passages of PMVECs were cultured in vitro, and they were divided into three groups: the cells in LPS group were only challenged by LPS 10 μg/mL after being cultured in serum-free medium for 24 hours; the cells in Ad-shRNA and Ad-MRP4 groups were infected with the empty virus control or recombinant adenovirus expressing MRP4 for 2 hours, and then were cultured in serum-free medium for 24 hours followed by stimulation of LPS 10 μg/mL. Endothelial permeability was assayed by the Transwell chamber models at 2, 6, 12, and 24 hours after LPS stimulation.
