Trametes robiniophila represses angiogenesis and tumor growth of lung cancer via strengthening let-7d-5p and targeting NAP1L1.

Trametes robiniophila (Huaier) is available to refrain lung cancer (LC) cell progression, but its impact and mechanism on angiogenesis of LC are not proved. The study was to explore the potential mechanism of Huaier repressing angiogenesis and tumor growth in LC via strengthening let-7d-5p and targeting NAP1L1. Let-7d-5p and NAP1L1 expression was detected in LC tissues and cells (A549).

ProBDNF Signaling Regulates Depression-Like Behaviors in Rodents under Chronic Stress.

Chronic exposure to stressful environment is a key risk factor contributing to the development of depression. However, the mechanisms involved in this process are still unclear. Brain-derived neurotropic factor (BDNF) has long been investigated for its positive role in regulation of mood, although the role of its precursor, proBDNF, in regulation of mood is not known.
