The present study investigated whether 16 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), selected based on minor allele frequencies, Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium and reported SNPs related to the susceptibility of certain gastrointestinal cancer, were associated with esophageal cancer (EC) risk in a Chinese Han population. We genotyped 16 SNPs among 506 case...

LINC00689 acts one critical regulatory role in several tumors. However, the functional, regulatory mechanism and expression of LINC00689 remains unknown in gastric cancer. LINC00689 and miR-338-3p levels were determined using a quantitative reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction analysis and an enzyme-linked immunoassay and a cell-counting...

Dentin matrix protein 1 (DMP1) is highly expressed in mineralized tooth and bone, playing a critical role in mineralization and phosphate metabolism. One important role for the expression of DMP1 in the nucleus of preosteoblasts is the up-regulation of osteoblast-specific genes such as osteocalcin and alkaline phosphatase1 . The present study aimed...

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play important roles in the progression of tumors. However, the function and expression of SCARNA2 in cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) is still unreported. A quantitative polymerase chain reaction was applied to study the expression of SCARNA2 and miR-342-3p. Cell counting kit-8, flow cytometry and transwell a...

Pre-eclampsia (PE) is a major cause of maternal and neonatal mortality and morbidity. Abnormal invasion of trophoblast cells is a major pathogenesis observed in PE. In the present study, we aimed to explore the association between forkhead box A1 (FOXA1) and early-onset pre-eclampsia (EOPE) and to determine the effects of FOXA1 on trophoblast cell ...

Congenital muscular dystrophy (CMD) refers to hypotonia and delayed motor development that is manifested at or near the birth. Additional presentations have been observed in CMD syndromes. Thorough clinical examinations were performed on two unrelated Iranian families with typical symptoms of CMD and uncommon features such as intellectual disabilit...

The micro RNA (miRNA)/histone deacetylase 9 (HDAC9) signaling axis has been reported to be involved in initiating and developing multiple malignant tumors. In the present study, we aimed to determine whether miR-211-5p serves as a post-transcriptional regulator in bladder cancer (BCa) cell proliferation and apoptosis by targeting HDAC9. miRNA expre...

For cartilage regeneration, stem cells are a promising cell source; however, even the advances made in the differentiation of stem cells into precursor-differentiated cartilage cells have not been successful with respect to reprograming these cells to achieve complete differentiation and fully functioning cells until now. Previous findings suggest ...

Hymenoptera venom allergy (HVA) is of great concern because of the possibility of anaphylaxis, which may be fatal. Venom immunotherapy (VIT) is the only disease-modifying treatment in HVA and, although efficient, its mechanism remains partially unknown. Gene expression analysis may be helpful for establishing a proper model of tolerance induction d...

Numerous studies have shown that aberrant expression of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) is associated with the development and metastasis of osteosarcoma (OS). However, the role and function of LINC00319 with respect to regulating OS progression is unknown. The present study aimed to reveal the function and related mechanism of LINC00319 in OS. The ...
