The body temperature is considered a universal cue by which the master clock synchronizes peripheral clocks in mammals, but mechanism not fully understood. Here we identified two cold-induced RNA-binding proteins (RBPs), Cirbp and Rbm3, as important regulators for entrained circadian gene expression. depletion of or Rbm3 significantly reduced amplitudes core genes. PAR-CLIP analyses showed that 3′UTR binding sites were enriched near polyadenylation (PASs). Furthermore, shortened 3′UTR,...

Abstract Objective The adipokine asprosin, which was recently discovered, facilitates hepatic glucose production. aim of this study is to see whether serum asprosin concentrations are linked diabetic nephropathy (DN). Methods We performed investigation in a group 212 type 2 diabetes (T2DM) patients. These patients were classified into three subgroups: DN0 (normal mildly increased), DN1 (moderately and DN2 (severely increased) on the basis urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio (ACR). Results When...

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are 19- to 25-nucleotide-long small and noncoding RNAs now well-known for their regulatory roles in gene expression through posttranscriptional translational controls. Mammalian hibernation is a physiological process involving profound changes set-points food consumption, body mass growth, temperature, metabolic rate which miRNAs may play important roles. In an initial study, we analyzed the liver of extreme hibernating species, Arctic ground squirrel (Spermophilus...

Meteorin-like (Metrnl) is a newly discovered myokine. Plasma Metrnl decreased in subjects with diagnosed type 2 diabetes (T2D) and correlated insulin resistance. This study aims to determine the effects of on apoptosis proliferation β cell. Mouse insulinoma MIN6 cells were divided into six groups: normal control, low glucose, high Vehicle, Metrnl, Dickkopf 1 (DKK1) groups. group transfected recombinant pCDH-Metrnl vector. WNT/β-catenin pathway was inhibited using DKK1. Then detected flow...

The C-C motif chemokine ligand 2 (CCL2) has been implicated in chronic pain, but its exact mechanism of peripheral sensitization is unknown. In this study, we aimed to clarify the CCL2 regulation ion channels. Our behavioral experiments revealed that ZD7288, a blocker Ih current, can inhibit CFA and CCL2-mediated mechanical thermal nociceptive sensitization. Furthermore, patch clamp studies demonstrated CFA-induced primarily affects excitability small-diameter DRG neurons. Further...

Patients with chronic pain often experience an exacerbated response and complain of memory deficits. However, the mechanistic link between cognitive function remains unclear. The dorsal hippocampus (dHPC), a well-defined region responsible for learning memory, displays maladaptive plasticity upon injury, which involves activation N-methyl-d-aspartic acid receptors. Mounting evidence has shown that cyclic guanosine cGMP-dependent protein kinase I (PKG-I) serves as key downstream target...
