Breast cancer anti-estrogen resistance 4 (BCAR4) is closely associated with colorectal (CRC) initiation and propagation. However, the mechanisms underlying BCAR4 function in colon remains largely unknown. In this study, we hypothesized that could regulate stem/initiating cells (CSC) further facilitates progression.qRT-PCR was used to examine expression of various CSC markers. FACS, acetaldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) activity western blot assays were applicable test CCK8, tumorsphere formation...

The pulpotomy with pulp capping is aimed at retaining vital reparative dentin formation. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) plays a crucial role in regeneration; however, its constant administrations the human body still problematic. Chitosan was widely studied as an effective carrier to deliver bioactive molecules regenerative medicine. In this study, we conducted chitosan/β-glycerophosphate (CS/β-GP) hydrogel VEGF-sustained release system and explored effects on dental stem cells...

Abstract Objectives The odontoblastic differentiation of dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) contributes to tertiary dentin formation. Our previous study indicated that epiregulin (EREG) enhanced odontogenesis potential pulp. Here, we explored the effects EREG during DPSC differentiation. Methods changes in were detected DPSCs treated with recombinant human (rhEREG), receptor inhibitor gefitinib and short hairpin RNAs. was assessed ALP staining, activity assay, alizarin red S staining real‐time...

Abstract Background Epigenetic factors influence the odontogenic differentiation of dental pulp stem cells and play indispensable roles during tooth development. Some microRNAs can epigenetically regulate other epigenetic like DNA methyltransferases histone modification enzymes, functioning as epigenetic-microRNAs. In our previous study, microarray analysis suggested microRNA-93-5p (miR-93-5p) was differentially expressed bell stage in human germ. Prediction tools indicated that miR-93-5p...

Osteosarcoma (OS) is a primary malignant tumor of the bone, with tendency to metastasize early. Despite advances in treatment options, more than 30% patients develop distant metastases, and prognosis these metastases extremely poor. Celastrol has been demonstrated manifest multiple pharmacological activities, including induction apoptosis numerous types cancer cell lines. Our previous studies have also suggested that capable inducing human osteosarcoma cells via mitochondrial-dependent...

Aim: To investigate the association and prognostic value of ANKZF1 gene for survival in colorectal cancer, mechanism level alteration correlated signaling pathways is involved. Patients & methods: The Cancer Genome Atlas COREAD dataset was analyzed by bioinformatical investigation. Results: High expression associated with poor overall (hazard ratio [HR]: 2.094; 95% CI: 1.188–3.689; p = 0.011) recurrence-free (HR: 1.762; 1.021–3.042; 0.042) colon cancer. Bioinformatical analysis showed...

Enamel mineralization is accompanied by the release of protons into extracellular matrix, which buffered to regulate pH value in local microenvironment. The present study aimed investigate role microRNA 224 (miR-224) as a regulator SLC4A4 and CFTR, encoding key buffering ion transporters, modulating enamel mineralization. miR-224 was significantly downregulated ameloblasts differentiated, parallel with upregulation CFTR. Overexpression CFTR expression cultured human epithelial cells. A...

Metastasis is a crucial cause of the high mortality in patients with lung cancer. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are emerging as important players development and progression human cancers. Here, we aimed to identify metastasis-associated lncRNA study its roles migration invasion cancer cells.We screened differentially expressed lncRNAs between high- low-metastatic cell lines by using microarray identified target TM4SF1-AS1. The effect TM4SF1-AS1 on was evaluated through wound healing...

Abstract Odontogenesis is accomplished by reciprocal signaling between the epithelial and mesenchymal compartments. It generally accepted that inductive mesenchyme capable of inducing odontogenic commitment both dental non-dental cells. However, duration this signal in developing whether adult pulp tissue maintains its capability remain unclear. This study investigated contribution growth factors to regulating potential mesenchyme. Human oral cells (OEs) were co-cultured with either human...
