Accumulated evidences suggested that microRNAs (miRs) play an important role in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, how miRs perform their functions adenocarcinoma stem cells (CSCs) remains unknown. Notably, most studies pay more attention to the effects of miRNAs on metastasis traits whereas growth activities CSCs are rather undervalued. In our report, using A549CD133+cells, we examined inhibitory and underlying mechanisms microRNA-31 (miR-31) CSC-like cells. Initially, determined...

Disorders of bone homeostasis are the key factors leading to metabolic disease, such as senile osteoporosis, which is characterized by age-related loss. Bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) possess high osteogenic capacity has been regarded a practical approach preventing Previous studies have shown that differentiation ability BMSCs significantly decreased in osteoporosis. Recently, circular RNAs (circRNAs) critical regulators controlling sponging microRNAs (miRNAs). Our study aimed discover...
