MiR-126-Loaded Immunoliposomes against Vascular Endothelial Inflammation In Vitro and Vivo Evaluation.

Due to the accompaniment of vascular endothelial inflammation during the occurrence and development of cardiovascular diseases (CVD), treatment modalities against vascular endothelial inflammation have been intensively investigated for CVD prevention and/or treatment. Vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) is a typical transmembrane inflammatory protein specifically expressed by inflammatory vascular endothelial. By inhibiting VCAM-1 expression through the miR-126 mediated pathway, vascular endothelial inflammation can be efficiently relieved.

Identification and expression analysis of heat shock protein family genes of gall fly (Procecidochares utilis) under temperature stress.

Heat shock proteins (HSP) are molecular chaperones involved in many normal cellular processes and environmental stresses. At the genome-wide level, there were no reports on the diversity and phylogeny of the heat shock protein family in Procecidochares utilis. In this study, 43 HSPs were identified from the genome of P.
