Plasma arginine, ornithine, arginine–to–ornithine ratio (AOR) were analysed by liquid chromatography‐tandem mass spectrometry (LC‐MS/MS). Urine samples measured colloid gold...
To investigate the correlation between miR-26b and non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC).NSCLC tissues normal that were more than 7 cm adjacent from tumor collected 154 NSCLC patients. Additionally, 63 specimens benign disease selected as control group. Real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR was used to detect expression in tissues.miR-26b significantly lower other two types of tissues. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis showed area under 0.856 with sensitivity specificity 79.9...
Gastric cancer cells are resistant to tumor necrosis factor‐related apoptosis‐inducing ligand (TRAIL) and the resistance mechanism is not fully understood. In human gastric MGC803 BGC823 cells, TRAIL induces insulin‐like growth factor‐1 receptor (IGF‐1R) pathway activation. Treatment with IGF‐1R inhibitor OSI‐906 or small interfering RNAs against IGF‐1R, prevents activation increases TRAIL‐induced apoptosis. The promoted by translocation into lipid rafts. Moreover, of rafts regulated Casitas...
Scutellarin is an important bioactive flavonoid extracted from Erigeron breviscapus (Vant.) Hand‐Mazz, and scutellarein the corresponding aglycone of scutellarin. The present study aims to compare inhibition potential scutellarin towards several UDP‐glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) isoforms, including UGT1A1, UGT1A6, UGT1A9 UGT2B7. It was demonstrated that exerted stronger tested UGT isoforms than Furthermore, kinetic type parameters (K i ) were determined for scutellarein's these isoforms....
