Flavivirus non-structural protein 1 (NS1) is a highly conserved secreted protein that plays a crucial role in host-virus interaction during virus pathogenesis. Flavivirus-NS1 modulates the host's cellular and immunological responses. We explored miR-145-5p mediated expression of type I interferon (IFN) in flavivirus-NS1 triggered human cerebral microvascular endothelial cells (hCMEC/D3 cells) through scavenger receptor class B 1 (SR-B1). SR-B1 is an important lipoprotein receptor involved in cholesterol transport and lipid homeostasis. The increased expression of miR-145-5p in flavivirus-NS1 exposed hCMEC/D3 cells was reported using TaqMan-based quantitative PCR assay. The miR-145-5p mediated regulation of SR-B1 was validated by overexpression and knockdown of miR-145-5p in hCMEC/D3 cells. The increased expression of miR-145-5p led to the suppressed expression of SR-B1, which induced the expression of type I IFN - α/β. The protein expression patterns of SR-B1 and IFN- α/β were studied by immunoblotting. This study demonstrates miR-145-5p mediated type I IFN signaling by suppressing the SR-B1 expression through bystander effects of flavivirus-NS1 in human cerebral microvascular endothelial cells.

Mitochondria are a focus of biomedical research because of their role in apoptosis and diabetic retinopathy (DR) initiation and progression. However, the detailed mechanisms underlying mitochondrial disorders and endothelial dysfunction during DR remain elusive. We identified PDZ domain containing 1 (PDZK1) as a key factor linking endothelial mitochondrial dysfunction and cell apoptosis during DR progression.

Background: Abnormal expression of N-acetyltransferase 10 (NAT10) has been shown to promote the progression of various tumors, including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). This study was designed to investigate the role of NAT10 in NSCLC and the underlying mechanism.

Methods: Reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction and Western blot were used to analyze the levels of NAT10 in NSCLC cell lines.

Metal 3D printing is increasingly being used to manufacture titanium-aluminum-vanadium (Ti6Al4V) implants. In vitro studies using 2D substrates demonstrate that the osteoblastic differentiation of bone marrow stromal cells (MSCs) on Ti6Al4V surfaces, with a microscale/nanoscale surface topography that mimics an osteoclast resorption pit, involves non-canonical Wnt signaling; Wnt3a is downregulated and Wnt5a is upregulated, leading to the local production of BMP2 and semaphorin 3A (sema3A). In this study, it was examined whether the regulation of MSCs in a 3D environment occurs by a similar mechanism.

Background: Circular RNA (circRNA) plays a significant role in esophagus squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) progression. Nevertheless, circ-TTC17 roles in ESCC have not fully understood.

Methods: The levels of circ-TTC17, miR-145-5p and sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) were determined using qRT-PCR.
