Background: Monocyte-macrophage lineage cells are committed towards osteoclast differentiation in vitro by the downregulation of microphthalmia-induced transcription factor (MITF) by miRNA-155. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate miRNA-155 expression and explore the regulation of MITF by miRNA-155 during osteoclastogenesis in periodontitis.
Materials And Methods: Ninety-eight subjects were recruited and categorized into the following: group I (cases)-systemically healthy with localized stage III/IV periodontitis (N = 49) and group II (controls)-systemically and periodontally healthy (N = 49). Gingival tissue samples were procured and qRT-PCR analysis was carried out for relative gene expression.
Results: The mean ΔCT of miRNA-155 expression was -1.04 ± 2.26 and -0.01 ± 1.4 respectively for groups I and II. There was a statistically significant difference in the miRNA-155 expression (P ≤ 0.01) between the groups. The mean ΔCT of MITF expression for groups I and II was 4.15± 2.16 and 3.51± 1.57 respectively with no significant difference (P > 0.01) between the groups. In the periodontitis group, miRNA-155 expression increased by fivefolds (P ≤ 0.01) whereas MITF expression showed no significant difference in the fold change between the groups (P > 0.01). The site-specific clinical parameters showed a statistically significant strong negative and positive correlation with the ΔCT and fold change values of miRNA-155 respectively in the total 98 samples (P < 0.01). miRNA-155 was able to discriminate between periodontal health and disease with a diagnostic accuracy of 96.9% (95%CI: 91.38-98.95) and the AUC was 0.98 (95%CI: 0.97-1.0, SE = 0.008, P < 0.001) in ROC analysis with a sensitivity of 93.8% (95%CI: 83.48-97.9) and specificity of 100% (95%CI: 92.73-100).
Conclusions: miRNA-155 was dysregulated and upregulated by fivefolds in periodontal disease. It can be used as a potential biomarker to discriminate between periodontal health and disease. No difference in the MITF gene expression was demonstrated between periodontal health and disease. The result suggested that miRNA-155 does not affect the expression of MITF gene in the process of osteoclastogenesis in localized stage III/IV periodontitis within this study design and limitations.

The anomalous expression of microRNA poses a serious threat to human life and health safety, and serves as an important biomarker for cancer detection. In this study, a novel magnetic-assisted DNA logic gate nanomachine triggered by miRNA-21 and miRNA-155 was designed based on the trans-cleavage activity of CRISPR/Cas12a activated by a split DNA activator, using only a single crRNA and signal probe, which simplified the detection procedure and complex nucleic acid amplification. The presence of target molecules, miRNA-21 and miRNA-155, can stimulate the DNA walker machine assembled on magnetic beads, which releases activator under the action of DNAzyme.

Therefore, it is very important to develop sensitive miRNA-155 analysis methods for the early diagnosis, treatment, and prognostic evaluation of cervical cancer. In this study, a near-infrared light-driven fluorescent biosensor based on the metal-enhanced fluorescence effect of polydopamine-coated upconversion nanoparticle (UP/Au) and two toehold-mediated strand displacement (TMSD) steps was constructed for the detection of miRNA-155.

The development of an engineered RNA device capable of detecting multiple biomarkers to evaluate pathological states and autonomously implement responsive therapies is urgently needed. Here, we report InCasApt, an integrated nano CRISPR Cas13a/RNA aptamer theranostic platform capable of achieving both biomarker detection and biomarker-driven therapy. Within this system, a Cas13a/crRNA complex, a hairpin reporter (HR), a dinitroaniline caged Ce6 photosensitizer (Ce6-DN), and a DN-binding RNA aptamer precursor (DNBApt) are coloaded onto dendritic mesoporous silicon nanoparticles (DMSN) in a controlled manner.

Background/objectives: Cholesterol is vital in various bodily functions, such as maintaining cell membranes, producing hormones, etc. However, imbalances, like hypercholesterolemia, can lead to diseases such as cancer, kidney disease, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, and cardiovascular conditions. This study explores the impact of kiwifruit consumption, specifically cultivar Geneva and cultivar Hayward, on cholesterol and lipid metabolism in rat liver.
