Aim: The aim of this study is to explain the effects of miRNA-186 in renal injury induced by sepsis.
Methods: The Wistar rats were divided into 3 groups: the Sham group, Sepsis model group and the miRNA-186 group based on the model group; there were 9 rats in every group. The rat sepsis model was reproduced by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP). The rats of the miRNA-186 group were injected miRNA-186 from caudal vein. The rats of the difference group were killed after operation 24 h. The kidneys of the difference groups were taken for histopathological and cell apoptosis analysis by H&E and TUNEL assay. The relative protein expressions were measured by WB assay. miRNA-186 target to Phosphatase and tensin homologous protein (PTEN).
Results: Compared with the Sham group, the kidney histopathological and cell apoptosis rates of the model group were significantly damaged (P<0.05, respectively), however, the kidney histopathological and cell apoptosis rate of miRNA-186 group were significantly improved compared with the model group (P<0.05, respectively). The relative protein expressions were significantly different among 3 groups (P<0.05, respectively). The PTEN was the target of the miRNA-186.
Conclusion: miRNA-186 over-expression has effects that improve renal injury induced by sepsis via PTEN pathway.

Inherited genetics represents an important contributor to risk of esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC), and its precursor Barrett's esophagus (BE). Genome-wide association studies have identified ∼30 susceptibility variants for BE/EAC, yet genetic interactions remain unexamined. To address challenges in large-scale G×G scans, we combined knowledge-guided filtering and machine learning approaches, focusing on genes with (A) known/plausible links to BE/EAC pathogenesis (n=493) or (B) prior evidence of biological interactions (n=4,196).

Grouping of chemicals has been proposed as a strategy to speed up the screening and identification of potential substances of concern among the broad chemical universe under REACH. Such grouping is usually based on shared structural features and should only be used for the prioritization objectives. However, additional considerations (as well as structural similarity) are needed, e.

Tendon injuries present significant medical, social, and economic challenges globally. Despite advancements in tendon injury repair techniques, outcomes remain suboptimal due to inferior tissue quality and functionality. Tissue engineering offers a promising avenue for tendon regeneration, with biocompatible scaffolds playing a crucial role.

This study evaluated the association between dental infection and maxillary sinus pathology, and the influence of age, sex, type of tooth, root proximity to the sinus floor, the condition of the primary maxillary ostium, and the presence of an accessory maxillary ostium in this process. Computed Tomography scans were selected, and upper posterior teeth were evaluated for the presence of apical periodontitis (AP), bone loss with furcation involvement, and endoperiodontal lesion (EPL), subsequently, sinuses were evaluated for mucosal thickening (MT) and opacification of the maxillary sinus (OMS). Logistic regression models were constructed, and Chi-squared and Fisher's tests were applied.
