Objective: Multidrug resistance (MDR) to chemotherapeutic drugs is an important reason for clinical chemotherapy failure. So far, the relationship between FOS-like antigen1 (FOSL1) and chemotherapy sensitivity of breast cancer remains unclear. This study investigates the relationship between FOSL1 and chemotherapy sensitivity of breast cancer and its molecular mechanism.

Objective: Although the advent of chemotherapy has made some progress in the comprehensive treatment of breast cancer, drug resistance of tumor cells remains to be one of the main challenges for the treatment of breast cancers. Several microRNAs have been implicated in the resistant process, but the role of miR-130a in drug resistance in breast cancer remains unclear. The present study aims to investigate the role and mechanisms of miR-130a in drug resistance in breast cancer cells and tissues.

Whole grain and cereal fiber intake and the risk of type 2 diabetes: a meta-analysis.

Int J Mol Epidemiol Genet

June 2019

Department Epidemiology and Biostatistics, School of Public Health, Wannan Medical College Wuhu 241002, Anhui, China.

Article Synopsis
  • Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are a growing global concern, prompting investigations into the links between whole grain or cereal fiber intake and type 2 diabetes risk.
  • A review of relevant literature from various databases revealed eight studies involving 14,728 cases of type 2 diabetes among 434,903 participants.
  • The findings indicated an inverse relationship, showing that higher whole grain and cereal fiber intake is associated with a reduced risk of developing type 2 diabetes (overall relative risk of 0.68).

MicroRNA-22 (miR-22) was previously reported to elicit cardiac myocyte hypertrophy and had an anti-apoptotic effect on neurons. However, its effects on cardiac myocyte apoptosis and cardiac function during ischemia and reperfusion (I/R) are not clear. In the present study, we demonstrate that pre-administration of miR-22 mimic reduced I/R-induced cardiac dysfunction significantly in a rat model.
