Abstract MicroRNAs play important roles in regulating tumour development, progression and metastasis. Here we show that one of the miR-200 family members, miR-141, is under-expressed several prostate cancer (PCa) stem/progenitor cell populations both xenograft primary patient tumours. Enforced expression miR-141 CD44 + bulk PCa cells inhibits stem properties including holoclone sphere formation, as well invasion, suppresses regeneration Moreover, enforces a strong epithelial phenotype with...
microRNA-128 (miR128) is reduced in prostate cancer relative to normal/benign tissues, but causal roles are obscure. Here we show that exogenously introduced miR128 suppresses tumor regeneration multiple xenograft models. Cancer stem-like cell (CSC)-associated properties were blocked, including holoclone and sphere formation as well clonogenic survival. Using a sensor distinguish cells on the basis of expression, found miR128-lo possessed higher clonal, clonogenic, tumorigenic activities...
Abstract Purpose: We have shown that the phenotypically undifferentiated (PSA−/lo) prostate cancer cell population harbors long-term self-renewing stem cells (CSC) resist castration, and a subset of within PSA−/lo bearing ALDHhiCD44+α2β1+ phenotype (Triple Marker+/TM+) is capable robustly initiating xenograft tumors in castrated mice. The goal current project to further characterize biologic properties TM+ population, particularly context propagating castration-resistant (CRPC). Experimental...
Spermatogenesis is an intricate developmental process during which undifferentiated spermatogonia, containing spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs), undergo self-renewal and differentiation to generate eventually mature spermatozoa. occurs in seminiferous tubules within the testis, harbor Sertoli germ cells. are essential somatic cell type microenvironment that support steer male development, whereas spermatogonia primitive at onset of spermatogenesis. While progression has been well established...
Melanoma cells actively participate in tumor angiogenesis and vasculogenic mimicry. However, anti-angiogenic therapy patients with melanoma has not shown a significant survival gain. Thus, new anti-melanoma angiogenic drugs are highly desired. Using the metastatic cell line C8161 as model, we explored inhibitors found that lycorine hydrochloride (LH) effectively suppressed cell-dominant formation of capillary-like tubes vitro generation blood vessels vivo low toxicity. Mechanistic studies...
Human cancers exhibit significant cellular heterogeneity featuring tumorigenic cancer stem cells (CSCs) in addition to more differentiated progeny with limited tumor-initiating capabilities. Recent studies suggest that microRNAs (miRNAs) regulate CSCs and tumor development. A previous library screening for differential miRNA expression CD44+ (and other) prostate CSC vs. non-CSC populations identified miR-199a-3p be among the most highly under-expressed miRNAs CSCs. In this study, we...

Therefore, levels of acid, motility, membrane integrity, acrosome apoptosis evaluated. Moreover, enzymes...
Spermatogenesis is the process by which male gametes are formed from spermatogonial stem cells and it essential for reliable transmission of genetic information between generations. To date, dynamic transcriptional changes defined populations germ in pigs have not been reported.To characterize atlas porcine spermatogenesis, we profiled transcriptomes ~ 16,966 testicular a 150-day-old pig testis through single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq). The scRNA-seq analysis identified spermatogonia,...
Background and objective Extreme haemodilution occurring with cardiopulmonary bypass imposes a primary risk factor for blood transfusion in small adult cardiac surgical patients. Priming of the circuit patients' own [retrograde autologous priming (RAP)] is technique used to limit reduce requirements. We designed this study evaluate effects RAP on reducing perioperative adults. Methods One hundred twenty patients body surface area less than 1.5 m2 undergoing first-time, nonemergency surgery...
Anti-lymphoma therapy continues to present a major challenge. Even though cytotoxic therapy, immunotherapy and molecularly targeted have been used in the clinic treat disease, effective anti-lymphoma drugs are still needed. In this study, we explored novel agents found that scutellarin, an active component of traditional Chinese medicinal herb Erigeron breviscapus, executed effect. Scutellarin diminished proliferation B-lymphoma Namalwa cells vitro inhibited lymphoma growth...
As one of the 100 worst invasive alien species in world, red imported fire ant (Solenopsis invicta Buren) is great concern because its impact on human health, economic development, and native biodiversity. With ongoing global climate change situation, there an increased public health threat from invasion S. invicta. To understand distribution suitable habitats for under current future scenarios mainland China, nine models were constructed compared to which more predict The performance Random...
