Accumulation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) is associated with the severity of aortic stenosis in patients with concomitant type 2 diabetes
Authors: Kopytek, M., Ząbczyk, M., Mazur, P., Undas, A., & Natorska, J.
Journal: Cardiovascular Diabetology
Accumulation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) leads to chronic glycation of proteins and tissue damage, particularly in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). We aimed to evaluate whether increased accumulation of AGEs in patients with aortic stenosis (AS) and concomitant type 2 diabetes (DM) is associated with AS severity...

Antitumor effect of a WEE1 inhibitor and potentiation of olaparib sensitivity by DNA damage response modulation in triple-negative breast cancer
Authors: Ha, D.H., Min, A., Kim, S., Jang, H., Kim, S.H., Kim, H.J., Ryu, H.S, Ku, J.L...
Journal: Scientific Reports
Due to its regulation of CDK1/2 phosphorylation, WEE1 plays essentially roles in the regulations of G2/M checkpoint and DNA damage response (DDR). WEE1 inhibition can increase genomic instability by inducing replication stress and G2/M checkpoint inactivation, which result in increased cellular sensitivity to DNA damaging agents...

Cortistatin protects against intervertebral disc degeneration through targeting mitochondrial ROS-dependent NLRP3 inflammasome activation
Authors: Zhao, Y., Qiu, C., Wang, W., Peng, J., Cheng, X., Shangguan, Y., Xu, M., Li, J...
Journal: Theranostics
Background: Intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration is a common degenerative disease that can lead to collapse or herniation of the nucleus pulposus (NP) and result in radiculopathy in patients. Methods: NP tissue and cells were isolated from patients and mice, and the expression profile of cortistatin (CST) was analysed. In addition...

Bio-multifunctional alginate/chitosan/fucoidan sponges with enhanced angiogenesis and hair follicle regeneration for promoting full-thickness wound healing
Authors: Hao, Y., Zhao, W., Zhang, L., Zeng, X., Sun, Z., Zhang, D., Shen, P., Li, Z...
Journal: Materials & Design
Developing bio-multifunctional wound dressings with excellent hemostasis, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, enhanced angiogenesis and hair follicle regeneration for promoting full-thickness wound healing is highly valuable in clinical application. Herein, bio-multifunctional composite sponges were prepared by coupling alginate and chitosan with fucoidan...

TRPV1 Antagonist DWP05195 Induces ER Stress-Dependent Apoptosis through the ROS-p38-CHOP Pathway in Human Ovarian Cancer Cells
Authors: Wang, Y.Y., Lee, K.T., Lim, M.C., & Choi, J.H.
Journal: Cancers
In addition to their analgesic activity, transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) agonists and antagonists demonstrate profound anti-cancer activities in various human cancers. In the present study, we investigated the anti-cancer activity of a novel TRPV1 antagonist, DWP05195, and evaluated its molecular mechanism in human ovarian cancer cells...

Low-intensity pulsed ultrasound upregulates osteogenesis under inflammatory conditions in periodontal ligament stem cells through unfolded protein response
Authors: Li, H., Deng, Y., Tan, M., Feng, G., Kuang, Y., Li, J., & Song, J.
Journal: Stem Cell Research & Therapy
In periodontal tissue engineering, periodontal ligament stem cells derived from patients with periodontitis (P-PDLSCs) are among the most promising and accessible stem cells for repairing disrupted alveolar bone and other connective tissues around the teeth. However, the inflammatory environment influences the osteogenic...

Comparative studies of the expression of creatine kinase isoforms under immune stress in Pelodiscus sinensis
Authors: Li, C., Wang, W., Lee, J., Zeng, L., Yang, Y., Yin, S.J., Park, Y.D, & Qian, G.Y.
Journal: International Journal of Biological Macromolecules
The expression and localization of different isoforms of creatine kinase in Pelodiscus sinensis (PSCK) were studied to reveal the role of PSCK isozymes (PSCK-B, PSCK-M, PSCK-S) under bacterial infection-induced immunologic stress. The computational molecular dynamics simulations predicted that PSCK-S would mostly possess a kinase function in a structural...

MicroRNA-320d regulates tumor growth and invasion by promoting FoxM1 and predicts poor outcome in gastric cardiac adenocarcinoma
Authors: Chen, X., Gao, S., Zhao, Z., Liang, G., Kong, J., & Feng, X.
Journal: Cell & Bioscience
Recent evidences demonstrate that dysregulated expression of microRNA-320d (miR-320d) has been associated with several cancer development and progression. However the effect of miR-320d on gastric cardiac adenocarcinoma (GCA) and the association of miR-320d with its potential gene target FoxM1 remain unclear...

Hypoglycemic mechanism of polysaccharide from Cyclocarya paliurus leaves in type 2 diabetic rats by gut microbiota and host metabolism alteration
Authors: Li, Q., Hu, J., Nie, Q., Chang, X., Fang, Q., Xie, J., Li, H., & Nie, S.
Journal: Science China Life Sciences
Diabetes mellitus is a serious threat to human health. Cyclocarya paliurus (Batal.) Iljinskaja (C.paliurus) is one of the traditional herbal medicine and food in China for treating type 2 diabetes, and the C. paliurus polysaccharides (CP) were found to be one of its major functional constituents. This research aimed at...
