Neuropathic pain remains a prevalent and persistent clinical problem because it is often poorly responsive to the currently used analgesics. It very urgent develop novel drugs alleviate neuropathic pain. Galectin-3 (gal3) multifunctional protein belonging carbohydrate-ligand lectin family, which expressed by different cells. Emerging studies showed that gal3 elicits pro-inflammatory response recruiting activating lymphocytes, macrophages microglia. In study we investigated whether inhibition...

Abstract Muscle atrophy is a frequently observed complication, characterized by the loss of muscle mass and strength, which diminishes quality life survival. No effective therapy except exercise currently available. In our previous study, repressing miR-29b has been shown to reduce atrophy. current we have constructed artificially engineered extracellular vesicles for delivery CRISPR/Cas9 target (EVs-Cas9-29b). EVs-Cas9-29b favorable functional effect with respect repression in specific...

Abstract Little is known about if and how circular RNAs (circRNAs) are involved in skeletal muscle atrophy. Here a conserved RNA Damage‐specific DNA binding protein 1 (circDdb1), derived from the host gene encoding (DDB1), as mechanism of atrophy identified. circDdb1 expression markedly increased variety types vivo vitro, human aging muscle. Both ectopic causes In contrast, multiple forms caused by dexamethasone, tumor necrosis factor‐alpha (TNF‐α), or angiotensin II (Ang II) myotube cells,...

The treatment of plantar heel pain is highly challenging. We report ultrasound-guided pulsed radiofrequency (UG-PRF) in the gastrocnemius to treat and minimize safety issues.This study compared UG-PRF with sham 100 patients pain. Primary outcome measures include subscale Foot Health Status Questionnaire (FHSQ-pain) "first step" as measured on a visual analogue scale (VAS-"first-step" pain). secondary FHSQ-foot function general foot health, health related quality life (assessed using Short...

Metformin is an important antidiabetic drug that has the potential to reduce skeletal muscle atrophy and promote differentiation of cells. However, exact molecular mechanism underlying these functions remains unclear. Previous studies revealed transcription factor zinc finger E-box-binding homeobox 1 (ZEB1), which participates in tumor progression, inhibits atrophy. Therefore, we hypothesized protective effect metformin might be related ZEB1. We investigated positive on IL-1β-induced by...

<title>Abstract</title> Posttranslational modifications (PTMs) of tubulin, termed as the "tubulin code", play important roles in regulating microtubule functions within subcellular compartments for specialized cellular activities. While numerous tubulin PTMs have been identified, a comprehensive understanding complete repertoire is still underway. In this study, we report that α-tubulin lactylation catalyzed by HDAC6 using lactate to increase dynamics neurons. We identified on lysine 40...
