The gene polymorphisms of eNOS and MTHFR modulates the development of preeclampsia in Han population.

We explored the effects of the endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) gene -786 T > C and 894 G > T locus polymorphisms and the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene 1298 A > C and 677 C > T locus polymorphisms on preeclampsia (PE) in pregnant women in Quanzhou area and provide reliable and stable predictors PE. This study included 160 normal pregnant women (normal control group) and 160 women with preeclampsia (PE group). Polymorphisms in eNOS gene and MTHFR were analyzed by the polymerase chain reaction/restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR/RFLP) technique.

Regulation of Transcription Factor YAP-TEAD by Non-coding RNA LINC00857 and the Inhibitory Effects on Ovarian Cancer Cell Proliferation.

This study was aimed to explore the expression and mechanism of the transcription factor YAP-TEAD in the Hippo signaling pathway under the regulation of non-coding Ribonucleic Acid (RNA) LINC00857 in the proliferation of ovarian cancer cells, so as to provide a scientific research basis for clinical diagnosis and treatment of ovarian cancer. In the study, the ovarian cancer cell lines (BT 549) were rolled into a control group (normal culture-defined as BT549/NC) and a response group (transfected with non-coding RNA LINC00857 cultured cells-defined as BT 549YAP cells). The expression and proliferation ability of the transcription factor YAP-TEAD in the two groups of cancer cells were analyzed and compared.

Inhibiting miR-182-3p Alleviates Gestational Diabetes Mellitus by Improving Insulin Resistance in Skeletal Muscle.

Background: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is one of the most common metabolic diseases occurring during pregnancy. MiR-182-3p participates in a variety of physiological processes such as cell proliferation, apoptosis, differentiation, and migration5, but its role in GDM is largely unknown.

Aims: To investigate the relationship between miRNA-182-3p and GDM and explore a potential therapeutic strategy for GDM.

Preoperative serum anti-Müllerian hormone level is a potential predictor of ovarian endometrioma severity and postoperative fertility.

Objective: To establish a model for predicting revised American Society of Reproductive Medicine (rASRM) scores before endometrioma surgery based on serum anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) level and to identify factors that might reliably predict postoperative fertility of women diagnosed with endometrioma.

Study Design: The study population was composed of 134 women with endometrioma, 58 with benign cyst, and 115 with non-ovarian lesion. Preoperative serum AMH level and clinical parameters were compared among three groups.
