Abstract Background The use of epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) brings remarkable benefits for the survival patients with advanced NSCLC harboring EGFR mutations. Unfortunately, acquired resistance seems to be inevitable and limits application EGFR-TKIs in clinical practice. This study reported a common molecular mechanism sustaining potential treatment options overcome resistance. Methods resistant cells were established confirmed by MTT assay....

NCAPD3 is one of the three non-SMC subunits condensin II complex, which plays an important role in chromosome condensation and segregation during mitosis. Notably, elevated levels are found many somatic cancers. However, clinical role, biological functions cancers especially colorectal cancer (CRC) underlying molecular mechanisms remain poorly elucidated.Clinical CRC adjacent normal tissues were used to confirm expression NCAPD3. The association with clinicopathological characteristics...

Abstract Recent studies have demonstrated that microRNA-155-5p (miR-155-5p) plays an essential role in the regulation of allergen-induced inflammation and is overexpressed skin patients with atopic dermatitis (AD), although mechanism unknown. In this study, silencing miR-155-5p attenuated thickening epidermis AD model reduced infiltration inflammatory cells secretion Th2 cytokines. Protein kinase inhibitor α (PKIα) was identified as a direct target correlated negatively our model....

Abstract Recent studies have demonstrated that acquisition of cancer stem-like properties plays an essential role in promoting epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) resistance non-small cell lung (NSCLC); however, how to regulate and EGFR-TKI is largely unclear. In this study, we discovered increased iroquois-class homeodomain protein 4 (IRX4) was related gefitinib NSCLC cells. Knockdown IRX4 inhibited proliferation, sphere formation, the expression CD133,...

In this study, we examined anti-fungal and anti-inflammatory effects of the synthetic melanocortin peptide (Ac-Cys-Lys-Pro-Val-NH2)2 or (CKPV)2 against Candida albicans vaginitis. Our in vitro results showed that dose-dependently inhibited colonies formation. a rat vaginitis model, significantly vaginal survival macrophages sub-epithelial mucosa infiltration. For mechanisms observed phagocytosis albicans. Meanwhile, administration macrophage pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-1β IL-6)...

Claudins, the integral tight junction proteins that regulate paracellular permeability and cell polarity, are frequently dysregulated in cancer; however, their roles regulating EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) resistance non-small lung cancer (NSCLC) unknown. To this end, we performed GEO dataset analysis identified claudin1 was a critical regulator of EGFR-TKI NSCLC cells. We also found claudin1, which highly induced by continuous gefitinib treatment, significantly upregulated...

Clinically, the treatments against asthma like β2 agonist focus on controlling symptoms rather than inhibiting recurrence radically. This study aims to evaluate efficacy and mechanism of a potent Chinese prescription Yu-Ping-Feng-San (YPFS) recurrence. We here established an optimized house dust mite (HDM)-induced mice model with typical asthmatic responses such as significantly augmented airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR), elevated serum IgE, pulmonary type 2 cytokines IL-5 IL-13 levels,...
