Trimetazidine, as an anti-ischemic and antioxidant agent, has been demonstrated to have many cardioprotective effects. However, whether early administration of trimetazidine effect on diabetic cardiomyopathy the mechanisms underlying not yet elucidated. We established a type 2 DCM rat model by high-fat diet low-dose streptozotocin. Rats were separated into different groups: control, diabetes, diabetes + (n = 6, each). Cardiac autophagy, cardiac functions, cardiomyocyte apoptosis monitored....

Three hundred cDNAs containing putatively entire open reading frames (ORFs) for previously undefined genes were obtained from CD34+ hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs), based on EST cataloging, clone sequencing, in silico cloning, and rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE). The sizes ranged 360 to 3496 bp their ORFs coded peptides 58–752 amino acids. Public database search indicated that 225 exhibited sequence similarities identified across a variety species. Homology analysis led...

Ovarian maturation in crustaceans is temporally orchestrated by two processes: oogenesis and vitellogenesis. The peptide hormone vitellogenesis-inhibiting (VIH), far the most potent negative regulator of crustacean reproduction known, critically modulates ovarian suppressing vitellogenin (VTG) synthesis. In this study, cDNA encoding VIH was cloned from eyestalk Pacific white shrimp, Litopenaeus vannamei, a highly significant commercial culture species. Phylogenetic analysis suggests that L....

Abstract Background Sarcopenia causes several adverse events in elderly people. Muscle fibre atrophy and interstitial fibrosis are the main histopathological changes sarcopenia account for decreased muscle function. Tribbles homologue 3 (TRB3) was previously reported to exhibit age‐related expression play a vital role cell proliferation, differentiation, fibrosis. We aimed investigate how TRB3 affects sarcopenia. Methods Wild‐type knockout C57/BL6J mice were randomly divided into young old...

Epidermal growth factor-like domain-containing protein 7 (EGFL7) is upregulated in human epithelial tumors and so a potential biomarker for malignancy. Indeed, previous studies have shown that high EGFL7 expression promotes infiltration metastasis of gastric carcinoma. The epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) initiates the metastatic cascade endows cancer cells with invasive migratory capacity; however, it not known if by triggering EMT. We found was overexpressed multiple (GC) cell lines...

Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common aggressive malignancies. LACTB functions as a tumor suppressor, and previous findings have demonstrated that can inhibit epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) proliferation breast CRC cells. However, few studies investigated roles in autophagy CRC. The current study aimed to identify EMT associated with elucidate probable molecular mechanisms through which are involved these processes.

The osteogenic environment promotes vascular calcium phosphate deposition and aggregation of unfolded misfolded proteins, resulting in endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress chronic renal disease (CKD). Controlling ER through genetic intervention is a promising approach for treating calcification. In this study, we demonstrated positive correlation between stress-induced tribble 3 (TRIB3) expression progression calcification human rodent CKD. Increased TRIB3 promoted smooth muscle cell (VSMC) by...

Abstract Background Exercise rehabilitation is demonstrated to improve the prognosis of patients with coronary heart disease (CHD). Statins, as key medicine lower cholesterol in CHD, result skeletal muscle injury and impair exercise training adaptation. Energy metabolism dysfunction identified potential mechanism underlying statin‐induced injury. In this study, we investigated effects metabolic modulator trimetazidine on energy statin‐associated intolerance. Methods High‐fat fed...
