Skeletal muscle is composed of muscle fibers formed from myoblast differentiation. Recently, numerous researchers have demonstrated that microRNAs (miRNAs) play an essential role in modulating the proliferation and differentiation of myoblasts. Our previous study has shown that among the miR-17-92 cluster members, miR-17 and miR-20a together with miR-19b can efficiently promote the differentiation of murine C2C12 and bovine primary myoblasts. However, the role of miR-18 in this process remains elusive. In this study, we revealed that miR-18 inhibited the differentiation of bovine skeletal muscle-derived satellite cells (bMDSCs), whereas an miR-18 inhibitor significantly promoted cell differentiation (p < 0.001). Then, a target gene of miR-18 was found to be myocyte enhancer factor 2D (MEF2D), which is critical for myoblast differentiation. Furthermore, we found that the combination of the miR-18 inhibitor and miR-19 significantly improved the formation of bMDSCs-derived muscle fibers (p < 0.001). This study revealed the role of miR-18 in bovine skeletal muscle differentiation and contributed to the understanding of the regulatory mechanism of mammalian myogenic differentiation.

Defective β-catenin signaling is accompanied with compensatory neurogenesis process that may pave to anxiety. β-Catenin has a distinct role in alleviating anxiety in adolescence; however, it undergoes degradation by the degradation complex Axin and APC. Vilazodone (VZ) is a fast, effective antidepressant with SSRI activity and 5-HT partial agonism that amends somatic and/or psychic symptoms of anxiety.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Zishen Yutai pills (ZYP), a traditional Chinese patent medicine, was listed in China in 1981. It is composed of 15 traditional Chinese medicines and has the effects of regulating menstruation, helping pregnancy, and preventing abortion. In clinical practice, it is effective in preventing habitual and threatened miscarriages, and continuing to explore its mechanism of action is very meaningful research.

Angiotensin receptor/Neprilysin inhibitor effects in CRTd non-responders: From epigenetic to clinical beside.

Department of Advanced Medical and Surgical Sciences, University of Campania "Luigi Vanvitelli", Naples, Italy; "Mediterranea Cardiocentro", Naples, Italy. Electronic address:

Objectives: We evaluated whether Angiotensin receptor/Neprilysin inhibitors (ARNI) reduce heart failure (HF) hospitalizations and deaths in cardiac resynchronization therapy with defibrillator (CRTd) non-responders patients at 12 months of follow-up, modulating microRNAs (miRs) implied in adverse cardiac remodeling.

Background: adverse cardiac remodeling characterized by left ventricle ejection fraction (LVEF) reduction, left ventricular end-systolic volume (LVESv) increase, and the 6-minute walking test (6MWT) reduction are relevant pathological mechanisms in CRTd non-responders and could be linked to changes in miRNAs (miRs), regulating cardiac fibrosis, apoptosis, and hypertrophy.

Methods: miRs levels and clinical outcomes (LVEF, cardiac deaths, and 6MWT) were evaluated at baseline and one year of follow-up in CRTd non-responders divided into ARNI-users and Non-ARNI users.

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive terminal lung disease, and therapies aim to block fibrosis. Fibroblast proliferation is controlled by C/EBP-β, microRNA cluster 17-92 (miR17-92), and Erk1/2 mitogen-activated protein kinase. This study assessed the role of miR17-92 in IPF-fibroblast proliferation and its modification by treprostinil.
