Aberrant expression of long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) HULC is associated with various human cancers. However, the role of HULC in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is unknown. In this study, we found that HULC was remarkably overexpressed in both leukemia cell lines and primary hematopoietic cells derived from CML patients. The increase in HULC expression was positively correlated with clinical stages in...
Naringenin (NR), a flavonoid abundant in citrus fruits has been reported to possess anti-inflammatory properties. The present study aimed to investigate the protective of naringenin in rats after spinal cord injury (SCI) and the underlying mechanisms associated with neuroinflammation. Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected to laminectomy at T9-T11 and compression with a vascular clip. The spinal...
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is an irreversible and progressive neurodegenerative disorder with observable memory impairment. The present study was performed to evaluate the beneficial effects of lentiviral vector-mediated overexpression of a combination of three transcription regulators, ABN (Ascl1, Brn2 and Ngn2), on learning and memory loss in a mouse model of AD. The AD model was established by injecting...
Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells offer many advantages for recombinant gene expression, including proper folding and post-translational modification of the recombinant protein. However, due to positional effects resulting from the neighboring chromatin, transgenes are often expressed at low levels in these cells. While previous studies demonstrated that matrix attachment regions (MARs) can be utilized...
Vincristine (VCR) is widely used in tumor treatment. However, long-term use of this drug can make tumor cells resistant to it. Furthermore, the mechanisms underlying resistance development are unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) associated with colon cancer drug resistance using next-generation sequencing. A cDNA library of HCT-8 VCR-resistant colon...
The MNS16A polymorphism in the telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) gene has been implicated in cancer risk in multiple populations and various types of cancers; however, the results of previous studies exploring this association were inconclusive. To more precisely evaluate the relationship between the TERT MNS16A polymorphism and cancer risk, we performed a meta-analysis based on 8 studies described...
The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) is a ligand-activated transcription factor and plays an important role in the development of cancer. Although there have been many epidemiological studies investigating the relationship between genetic polymorphisms in the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) gene and human cancer risk, the findings remain conflicting. To derive a more precise estimation of association...
