Flavin-containing monooxygenase 3 (FMO3) plays a critical role in catalyzing the conversion of trimethylamine (TMA) to trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO) in vivo. Despite the well-documented association between FMO3 mutations and a ‘fishy’ off-flavor eggs in chicken and quail, little information is available regarding the molecular characteristic of goose (Anser cygnoides) FMO3 and its relationship with...
Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs)-activated by transforming growth factor beta (lncRNA-ATB) is known to be involved in the invasion of hepatocellular carcinoma by regulating target genes of miR-200a. However, the role and molecular mechanisms of lncRNA-ATB/miR-200a in HCV-related liver fibrosis remains unclear. In this study, we examined the expression of lncRNA-ATB/miR-200a, and their target gene β-Catenin...
In this study, we aimed to assess the neuroprotective effect of sevoflurane preconditioning in a cerebral focal ischemia–reperfusion rat model. Sixty Sprague Dawley rats were divided into six groups: sham operated group, cerebral focal ischemia–reperfusion (CIR) group, CIR+sevoflurane preconditioning (SP) (2%) group, CIR+sevoflurane preconditioning (2.5%) group, CIR+sevoflurane preconditioning (3%)...
Tea polyphenols (TP) was investigated in rats for its protective effect on renal ischemia/reperfusion injury (RIRI). Rats were randomized into groups as follows: (I) sham group (n=10); (II) RIRI group (n=10); (III) RIRI+TP (100mg/kg) group (n=5); (IV) RIRI+TP (200mg/kg) group (n=5); (V) RIRI+TP+ Astragalus mongholicus aqueous extract (AMAE) (300mg/kg+100mg/kg) group (n=5). For the IRI+TP groups, rats...
Tricho–rhino–phalangeal syndrome (TRPS) is a rare autosomal dominant disorder. Deletion or mutation of the TRPS1 gene leads to the tricho–rhino–phalangeal syndromes type I or type III. In this article, we describe a Chinese patient affected with type I TRPS and showing prominent pilar, rhinal and phalangeal abnormalities. Mutational screening and sequence analysis of TRPS1 gene revealed a previously...
