Objective: To explore inhibitory effect of miR-125b down-regulation on proliferation of leukemia cell K562.
Methods: miR-125b inhibitor and miR-125b NC were transfected into K562 cells by liposome Lipofectamine2000, the cell viability was measured by MTT assay, cell cloning ability was detected by agarose cloning assay, cell cycle was measured by flow cytometry. The expression of BCL-2, BCL-2 homology antagonist/liller 1(BAK1), p53 and p53 up-regulated modulator of apoptosis (Puma) was measured by Western blot.
Results: Compared with miR-125b NC, the expression of miR-125b was down-regulated (P<0.01), the cell viability and cell cloning ability were reduced (P<0.01), the cell cycle was arrested in the G phase (P<0.01), the expression of BCL-2 were down-regulated (P<0.01), the expression of BAK1, p53 and Puma were up-regulated in miR-125b inhibitor group (P<0.01).
Conclusion: Down-regulation of miR-125b can inhibit K562 cell proliferation via down-regulating the expressions of BCL-2 and up-regulating the expression of BAK1, p53 and Puma.

Glioblastomas (GBM) are malignant tumours with poor prognosis. Treatment involves chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy; however, there is currently no standard treatment for recurrence, and prognosis remains unfavourable. Inflammatory mediators and microRNAs (miRNAs) influence the aggressiveness of GBM, being involved in the communication with the cells of the tumour parenchyma, including microglia/macrophages, and maintaining an immunosuppressive microenvironment.

Article Synopsis
- Cervical cancer rates are significantly higher in Southeast Asia compared to Northern America, emphasizing the need for accessible self-diagnostic methods due to less frequent screening.
- This study created the first microRNA biomarker panel aimed at early detection of cervical cancer in Thai women, using a combination of tissue and discharge samples from patients with high-grade lesions.
- An 18-miRNA panel was identified, achieving a 90.9% accuracy in distinguishing between high-grade lesions and normal samples, with most miRNAs being down-regulated, suggesting their potential as non-invasive diagnostic tools for cervical cancer.

The high incidence, disability, mortality, and recurrence rates of cerebral infarction impose a heavy burden on both the Chinese and global populations. It is essential for the early diagnosis, prevention, and protection against brain cell injury. To identify differentially expressed microRNAs (miRNAs) in plasma exosomes of patients with cerebral ischemic stroke, determine relevant biomarkers, and explore their potential signaling pathways.

Objective: To investigate the mechanism of immunomodulatory effects of umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (UC-MSCs) modified by miR-125b-5p on systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).
Methods: The expression level of miR-125b-5p was detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR in UC-MSCs and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from SLE patients and health checkers. Annexin V-FITC/PI apoptosis detection kit was used to detect the effect of miR-125b-5p on apoptosis of UC-MSCs.
Down-regulation of key regulatory factors in sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) pathway in human lung fibroblasts transfected with selected microRNAs.

Sphingosine 1 phosphate (S1P) is involved in the pathogenesis of asthma by stimulation of the alpha-smooth muscle actin (SMA) expression and remodeling of fibroblasts. This study was designed to determine the effects of selected micro RNAs in regulation of S1P and related metabolic pathways in a human lung fibroblast cell line. The fibroblast cell line (CIRC-HLF, C580) was cultured and transfected with individual viral vectors carrying miR124, mi125b, mi133b or mi130a.
