PGs derived from cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), in particular PGE2, play important roles the initiation of inflammation and pain. In present study, we evaluated role COX-2-derived PGE2 an animal model established hyperalgesia. Inflammation hyperalgesia were first induced by injection carrageenan into rat footpads. Then investigated effects subsequent therapeutic treatment with a selective COX inhibitor, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug anti-PGE2 antibody. Test compounds administered 1 to 3 hr...

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most prevalent causes cancer-related morbidity and mortality worldwide. Late-stage detection complex molecular mechanisms driving tumor progression contribute significantly to its poor prognosis. Dysregulated R-loops, three-stranded nucleic acid structures associated with genome instability, play a key role in malignant characteristics various tumors. However, detailed mechanism R-loops HCC remain elusive require further exploration. This study...

The mitotic kinase Aurora-A (Aur-A) is required to form the bipolar spindle and ensure accurate chromosome segregation before cell division. Aur-A dysregulation represents an oncogenic event that promotes tumor formation. Here, we report breast cancer metastasis. overexpression enhanced mammary migration by dephosphorylation activation of cofilin, which facilitates actin reorganization polymerization. Cofilin knockdown impaired Aur-A-driven protrusion membrane. Conversely, activated cofilin...

Due to lower farrowing rate and reduced litter size with frozen-thawed semen, over 90% of artificial insemination (AI) is conducted using liquid stored boar semen. Although substantial progress has been made towards optimizing the cryopreservation protocols for sperm, influencing factors underlying mechanisms related cryoinjury freeze tolerance sperm remain largely unknown. In this study, we report differential expression mRNAs miRNAs between fresh high-throughput RNA sequencing. Our results...

Endometriosis is a complex and enigmatic disease that arises from the interplay among multiple genetic environmental factors. The defining feature of endometriosis deposition growth endometrial tissues at sites outside uterine cavity. Studies to date have established heritable but not addressed causal variants for this disease. Here, we conducted whole-exome sequencing comprehensively search somatic mutations in both eutopic ectopic endometrium 16 patients five normal control using laser...

Routine semen parameters have limited clinical diagnostic value for predicting male infertility. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between sperm DNA fragmentation index (DFI) and quality, DFI pregnancy rate in vitro fertilization (IVF) intracytoplasmic injection (ICSI). A total 390 couples undergoing prior receiving conventional IVF (n = 238) or ICSI 152) were evaluated. We found that there no significant differences rate, good embryo high (≥30%) low (<30%) groups...

Capacitation, a prerequisite for oocyte fertilization, is complex process involving series of structural and functional changes in sperms such as membrane modifications, modulation enzyme activities, protein phosphorylation. In order to penetrate fertilize an oocyte, mammalian must undergo capacitation. Nevertheless, the sperm capacitation remains poorly understood requires further elucidation. current study, via high throughput sequencing, we identified explored differentially expressed...

Testosterone is overwhelmingly important in regulating erectile physiology. However, the associated molecular mechanisms are poorly understood. The purpose of this study was to explore effects and testosterone dysfunction (ED) castrated rats. Forty male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomized four groups (control, sham-operated, castration castration-with-testosterone-replacement). Reactive oxygen species (ROS) production measured by dihydroethidium (DHE) staining. Erectile function assessed...

N-acetylcysteine is a classic mucolytic agent. This study aimed to investigate the efficacy of on reducing risk exacerbations in bronchiectasis patients. A prospective, randomized, controlled trial was conducted between April 1, 2014 and December 31, 2016 five general hospitals Shandong Province, China. Adult patients with at least two past year were potentially eligible. Patients randomly assigned receive oral (600 mg, twice daily, 12 months) or on-demand treatment. total 161 eligible for...

Premature ejaculation (PE), despite its wide prevalence, is largely underdiagnosed and undertreated. Being a multifactorial dysfunction with strong cultural characteristics, PE requires skillful attitudes in the psychosexological support, necessary to manage patient's couple's expectations, as well medical treatment.
