Protective role of naringin loaded solid nanoparticles against aflatoxin B1 induced hepatocellular carcinoma.

This study examines the hepatoprotective activity of naringin loaded solid nanoparticles (NRG-SLNs) and compared with free naringin (FNRG) against aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) induced hepatocellular carcinoma. The liver's self-healing ability was studied using a self-recovery group that received no therapy. Following AFB1 therapy, rats were given NRG-SLNs produced using the ion-gelation technique.

Dysregulation of the miR-1275/HK2 Axis Contributes to the Progression of Hypoxia/Reoxygenation-Induced Myocardial Injury.

Objective: This research was designed to investigate the function of miR-1275 in hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R)-induced myocardial injury and its in-depth mechanism.

Methods: Firstly, the differential expression of miR-1275 in patients with heart failure and healthy control were analyzed based on Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. Then H/R model was constructed in vitro with AC16 cells.

Upregulation of Long Noncoding RNA (lncRNA) X-Inactive Specific Transcript (XIST) is Associated with Cisplatin Resistance in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) by Downregulating MicroRNA-144-3p.

BACKGROUND Patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated with cisplatin, also termed cis-diamminedichloroplatinum (CDDP) or diamminedichloroplatinum (DDP), may develop chemoresistance. This study aimed to investigate the role of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) X-inactive specific transcript (XIST) and multidrug resistance-1 (MDR1) in tumor tissue samples and the chemoresistant human NSCLC cell lines, H460/DDP and A549/DDP, and in a murine A549/DDP tumor xenograft. MATERIAL AND METHODS Tissue samples were from patients with NSCLC who responded cisplatin (DDP-sensitive) (n=24), patients with NSCLC unresponsive to cisplatin (DDP-resistant) (n=30), and normal lung tissue (n=25).
