Long-term exposure to ambient and household particulate matter (PM2.5) causes death health loss, both are the leading risk factor global disease burden. We assessed spatiotemporal trends of PM2.5 attributable burdens across various diseases at global, regional, national levels from 1990 2017.Data on PM2.5-attributable were extracted Global Burden Disease (GBD) study 2017. Numbers age-standardized rates (ASRs) deaths, disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) corresponding estimated annual...
It is well established that airway remodeling and inflammation are characteristics for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Moreover, cigarette smoke extract (CSE) promots inflammation, apoptosis oxidative stress in COPD. And, there evidence suggested alantolactone (ALT), a sesquiterpene lactone isolated from Inula helenium, plays an adverse role stress. However, few studies have investigated the function mechanism of ALT treatment on COPD pathological process.The levels IL-1 β,...
Several observational studies have found that idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is often accompanied by elevated circulating C-reactive protein (CRP) levels. However, the causal relationship between them remains to be determined. Therefore, our study aimed explore effect of CRP levels on IPF risk two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis.We analyzed data from two genome-wide association (GWAS) European ancestry, including (204,402 individuals) and (1028 cases 196,986 controls). We...
This study aimed to evaluate the potential association between body roundness index (BRI) and kidney stone prevalence in adults United States.
This study was aimed to explore if lncRNA MALAT1 would modify chemo-resistance of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells by regulating miR-197-3p and p120 catenin (p120-ctn). Within this investigation, we totally recruited 326 patients, purchased 4 NSCLC lines A549, H1299, SPC-A-1 H460. Moreover, cisplatin, adriamycin, gefitinib paclitaxel were arranged as chemotherapies, half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) values calculated evaluate the cells. Furthermore, mice models also...
Lung cancer is the most common malignancy worldwide. Thus, there a critical need for diagnostic biomarkers with adequate sensitivity and specificity lung detection. Glycans in glycoproteins are significantly altered cancer, may serve as tool identifying potential biomarkers. Recent studies have reported changes α-1-antitrypsin (A1AT) glycosylation serum, tissue cell lines. In this study, lectin microarray was used to detect serum A1AT from patients adenocarcinoma (ADC), squamous small-cell...
Abstract Background Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) is a major public health challenge worldwide. However, the aetiological and disease severity-related pathogens associated with CAP in adults China are not well established based on detection of both viral bacterial agents. Methods A multicentre, prospective study was conducted involving 10 hospitals located nine geographical regions from 2014 to 2019. Sputum or bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) samples were collected each recruited...
Abstract Background The novel Akt inhibitor, API-1, induces apoptosis through undefined mechanisms. current study focuses on revealing the mechanisms by which API-1 apoptosis. Results rapidly and potently reduced levels of Mcl-1 primarily in API-1-senstive lung cancer cell lines. Ectopic expression protected cells from induction API-1. treatment decreased half-life Mcl-1, whereas inhibition proteasome with MG132 rescued reduction induced accompanied a rapid increase phosphorylation...
The majority of lung cancer(LC) patients are diagnosed at advanced stage with a poor prognosis. However, there is still no ideal diagnostic and prognostic prediction model for cancer.Data CEA, CYFRA21-1 NSE test LC benign diseases (BLDs) or healthy people from Physical Examination Center was collected. Samples were divided into three data sets as needed. Reassign kinds tumor markers (TMs) according to their distribution characteristics in different populations. Diagnostic models thus...
BRAFV600E, the most common genetic alteration, has become a major therapeutic target in thyroid cancer. Vemurafenib (PLX4032), specific inhibitor of BRAFV600E kinase, exhibits antitumor activity patients with BRAFV600E-mutated However, clinical benefit PLX4032 is often limited by short-term response and acquired resistance via heterogeneous feedback mechanisms. Disulfiram (DSF), an alcohol-aversion drug, shows potent efficacy copper (Cu)-dependent way. its cancer effect on cellular to BRAF...
Abstract Background Phase III trials evaluating the efficacy of gefitinib (IRESSA) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) lend support to need for improved patient selection terms use. Mutation epidermal growth factor receptor ( EGFR ) gene is reported be associated with clinical responsiveness gefitinib. However, gefitinib-sensitive and prolonged stable-disease-defined tumors without mutation have also been reported. Methods To identify other key factors involved sensitivity, we analyzed...
The current study aims to investigate the fuctional role of miRNA-25 in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used detect expression miR-25 NSCLC lines and 11 pairs human non-cancerous tissues. inhibitor stably transfected into line A549 Then effects downregulating on proliferation, cycle arrest, chemosensitivity cisplatin, growth vivo xenograft were investigated. Direct regulation its target gene, division 42 (CDC42),...
Family of forkhead box transcription factors, including P4 (FOXP4), plays an important role in oncogenesis. The current study is to evaluate the FOXP4 regulating human non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Quantitative RT-PCR and Western blot were performed gene protein expressions six NSCLC lines 55 patients. Lentivirus small hairpin RNA (FOXP4-shRNA) was used downregulate A549 H1703 cells. Its effect on growth, invasion, cycle evaluated by proliferation assay, migration respectively. Dual...
Pulmonary silicosis is characterized by lung fibrosis, which leads to impairment of pulmonary function; the specific mechanism remains be fully elucidated Emodin shows antifibrotic effects in several organs with however, it has not been investigated silicosis. In present study, possible fibrosis and effect emodin silica inhalation‑induced were investigated. particle inhalation was used induce mice. or sirtuin 1 (Sirt1) inhibitor, nicotinamide, treat modeled animals. function assessed using...
