Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection usually induces chronic hepatic inflammation, which favors the initiation and progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Moreover, microRNA-155 (miR-155) plays an important role in regulating both inflammation tumorigenesis. However, little is known about whether how miR-155 provides link between cancer. In this study we found that levels were markedly increased patients infected with HCV. MiR-155 transcription was regulated by nuclear factor kappa B...

MyD88 gene mutation has been identified as one of the most prevalent driver mutations in activated B-cell-like diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (ABC DLBCL). The published literature suggests that interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase 1 (IRAK1) is an essential for ABC DLBCL harboring mutation. Importantly, scaffolding function IRAK1, rather than its activity, required tumor cell survival. Herein, we present our design, synthesis, and biological evaluation a novel series potent selective IRAK1...

The CRISPR/Cas systems offer a programmable platform for nucleic acid detection, and CRISPR/Cas-based diagnostics (CRISPR-Dx) have demonstrated the ability to target acids with greater accuracy flexibility. However, due configuration of reporter underlying labeling mechanism, almost all reported CRISPR-Dx rely on single-option readout, resulting in limitations end-point result readouts. This is also associated high reagent consumption delays diagnostic reports protocol differences. Herein,...
