The study was aimed to provide insights into the effect of nano-hydroxyapatite (nHA) suspension on cell proliferation and cycle of human periodontal ligament cells, offering the evidence for nHA being used in periodontal therapy. Human periodontal ligament cells (HPDLCs) were cultured in different concentrations of nano-hydroxyapatite/sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (nHA-CMCNa) suspension in vitro. After that, cell proliferation ability was examined by MTT [3(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide] assay and flow cytometry. MTT assay demonstrated that the Relative Proliferation Rate (RPR) of 0.5% nHA-CMCNa group was significantly higher than other groups (p <0.05), which means that nHA-CMCNa might increase cell proliferation ability. Flow cytometry showed that cells in G1 phase decreased, whilst cells in S phase increased after cultured in nHA-CMCNa suspension for 48 h. The result suggested that part of cells finished G1 phase in advance and get into S phase earlier, which speed up the cell proliferation, nHA-CMCNa suspension had great effect on cell proliferation. The high concentration of nHA-CMCNa could shorten the time in G1 phase, impel part of cells into S phase, and accelerate proliferation rate of HPDLCs.

In the early stages, chronic kidney disease (CKD) can be asymptomatic, marking diagnosis difficult. This study aimed to investigate the diagnostic role and potential regulatory mechanisms of nucleolar protein 14 (NOP14) -antisense RNA 1 (AS1) in patients with CKD. Herein, 68 patients with CKD, 65 patients with CKD undergoing peridialysis, and 80 healthy adults were included.

Clinical evidence increasingly suggests that traditional treatments for dysfunctional uterine bleeding (DUB) have limited success. In this study, blood samples from 10 DUB patients and 10 healthy controls were collected for transcriptome sequencing. Then, the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were screened and crossed with the DUB-related module genes to obtain the target genes.

Biphasic in vitro oocyte maturation (IVM) can be offered as a patient-friendly alternative to conventional ovarian stimulation in in vitro fertilization (IVF) patients predicted to be hyper-responsive to ovarian stimulation. However, cumulative live birth rates after IVM per cycle are lower than after conventional ovarian stimulation for IVF. In different animal species, supplementation of IVM media with oocyte-secreted factors (OSFs) improves oocyte developmental competence through the expression of pro-ovulatory genes in cumulus cells.

Phytochemicals, which are bioactive compounds contained in fruits, vegetables, and teas, have a positive effect on human health by having anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anticarcinogenic effects. Several studies have highlighted the ability of bioactive compounds to activate key cellular enzymes associated with important signaling pathways related to cell division and proliferation, as well as their role in inflammatory and immunological responses. Some phytochemicals are associated with increased proliferation, differentiation, and expression of markers related to osteogenesis, bone formation, and mineralization by activating various signaling pathways.

Cervical cancer is a common tumor in women and one of the common causes of cancer death in women. Due to the aggressive and non-specific nature of traditional chemotherapy, there is a growing need for new treatment modalities. Currently, tumor immunotherapy is increasingly garnering attention as a disruptive treatment approach.
