Combined bioinformatics technology to explore pivot genes and related clinical prognosis in the development of gastric cancer.

To screen the key genes in the development of gastric cancer and their influence on prognosis. The GEO database was used to screen gastric cancer-related gene chips as a training set, and the R packages limma tool was used to analyze the differential genes expressed in gastric cancer tissues compared to normal tissues, and then the selected genes were verified in the validation set. The String database was used to calculate their Protein-protein interaction (PPI) network, using Cytoscape software's Centiscape and other plug-ins to analyze key genes in the PPI network.

Comparative study on clinical efficacy of different methods for the treatment of intramural aortic hematoma.

To explore the difference of curative effect between different treatment modalities, in order to provide reference for the treatment of aortic intramural hematoma (IMH). 168 patients with aortic intramural hematoma diagnosed and treated from January 2010 to July 2020 were selected in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University. Among them, 48 patients were diagnosed with Stanford A aortic intramural hematoma and 120 were diagnosed with Stanford B aortic intramural hematoma.

Therapeutic Effect of Epidermal Growth Factor Combined With Nano Silver Dressing on Diabetic Foot Patients.

To investigate the clinical efficacy of epidermal growth factor combined with nano silver dressing in the treatment of diabetic foot wounds. A total of 160 patients with diabetic foot ulcers admitted to the Second Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University from 2015-06 to 2018-06 were selected to participate in the experiment. A randomized table method was used to randomly divide 160 patients into 4 groups: 40 in the epidermal growth factor group, 40 in the nano-silver dressing group, 40 in the combined group, and 40 in the saline control group (normal saline).

miR-431 inhibits adipogenic differentiation of human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells via targeting insulin receptor substance 2.

Background: An understanding of the mechanism underlying adipogenic differentiation of human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) will provide new therapeutic approaches for many diseases, including osteoporosis. This study aimed to investigate the role of miR-431 in adipogenic differentiation of hMSCs.

Methods: hMSCs were induced for adipogenic differentiation and miR-431 was detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR).

Effects of Leukaemia Inhibitory Factor Receptor on the Early Stage of Osteogenic Differentiation of Human Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Cells.

Leukaemia inhibitory factor (LIF) has a wide variety of biological activities. While recent studies have focused on the role of LIF in osteoblast differentiation, the exact role of LIFR during the early stage of osteogenic differentiation remains unclear. We observed that LIFR expression gradually decreased during the early stage of osteogenic differentiation of hMSCs.

Exercise improved lipid metabolism and insulin sensitivity in rats fed a high-fat diet by regulating glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) and musclin expression.

This study aimed to evaluate the effects of exercise training on triglyceride deposition and the expression of musclin and glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) in a rat model of insulin resistance. Thirty male Sprague-Dawley rats (8 weeks old, weight 160±10 g) were fed a high-fat diet (40% calories from fat) and randomly divided into high-fat control group and swimming intervention group. Rats fed with standard food served as normal control.
