The integration of HPV DNA into human chromosomes plays a pivotal role in the onset papillomavirus-related cancers. often occurs by linearizing viral E1/E2 region, resulting loss critical early polyadenylation signal (PAS), which is essential for E6E7 bicistronic transcripts and expression E6 E7 oncogenes. Here, we provide compelling evidence that, despite presence numerous integrated copies, virus-host fusion originate from only single HPV16 HPV18 cervical cancers cancer-derived cell lines....
Identifying unknown drug interactions is of great benefit in the early detection adverse reactions. Despite existence several resources for drug-drug interaction (DDI) information, wealth such information buried a body unstructured medical text which growing exponentially.

Abstract Eukaryotic five-methylcytosine (m 5 C) is an important regulator of viral RNA splicing, stability, and translation. However, its role in HBV replication remains largely unknown. In this study, functional m C sites are identified hepatitis B virus (HBV) mRNA. The modification at nt 1291 not only indispensable for Aly/REF export factor (ALYREF) recognition to promote mRNA HBx translation but also the inhibition RIG-I binding suppress interferon-β (IFN-β) production. Moreover, NOP2/Sun...

This study was designed investigate whether emodin could the angiogenesis tissues its mechanism. Methodology/Principal Finding In accordance with study, inhibited cell growth, induced apoptosis, enhanced anti-tumor effect gemcitabine on caner vitro vivo by inhibiting activity NF-κB. Here, for first time, we demonstrated that implanted tissues, decreased...
Significance Persistent infections of oncogenic HPVs can lead to cervical, anogenital, and head-and-neck cancers. We report that HPV-infected cervical lesions display aberrant expression 194 long-noncoding RNAs, including lnc-FANCI-2 . show that, in cell tissue cultures, is induced primarily by the HPV E7 protein via interacting with a cellular transcription factor YY1. infection also increases YY1 reducing miR-29a, which targets 3′ UTR RNA. In vivo vitro, nearby DNA repair gene FANCI...

The biomedical text mining community has focused on developing techniques to automatically extract important relations between biological components and semantic events involving genes or proteins from literature. In this paper, we propose a novel approach for in the literature using approximate subgraph matching. Extraction of such knowledge is performed by searching an isomorphism key contextual dependencies input sentence graphs. Our significantly increases chance retrieving encoded...
Among cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors that control the G1 phase in cell cycle, only p18 and p27 can negatively regulate haematopoietic stem (HSC) self-renewal. In this manuscript, we demonstrate protein is a more potent inhibitor of HSC self-renewal than mouse models its deficiency promoted expansion long-term culture. Single-cell analysis indicated deleting gene favoured self-renewing division vitro. Based on structure in-silico screening, further identified novel small-molecule...
Gemcitabine resistance is a common problem of pancreatic cancer chemotherapy, and how to reverse it plays an important role in the treatment cancer.

SW1990/Gem was obtained by culture SW1990 vitro intermittently increasing concentration gemcitabine medium for 10 months, observing morphology using inverted microscopy. cells were pretreated with (10 µM) different...
We propose a method for automatic extraction of protein-specific residue mentions from the biomedical literature. The searches text amino acids at specific sequence positions and attempts to correctly associate each mention with protein also named in text. methods presented this work will enable improved functional site articles, ultimately supporting function prediction. Our made use linguistic patterns identifying acid Further, we applied an automated graph-based learn syntactic...
Increasing evidences suggest that the methyltransferase NSUN2 catalyzes 5-methylcytosine (m5C) modifications on viral RNAs, which are essential for replication of various viruses. Despite function m5C deposition is well characterized, other potential roles in regulating remain largely unknown. In this study, modified residues catalyzed by enterovirus 71 (EV71) RNAs were mapped. NSUN2, along with modifications, played multiple during EV71 life cycle. Functional nucleotides increased...
Abstract Background It has been demonstrated that swine waste is an important reservoir for resistant genes. Moreover, the bacteria carrying genes and originating from feces wastewater could spread to external environment. Fluoroquinolones (FQs) are widely used in livestock poultry treatment of bacterial infection. However, resistance FQs increased markedly. Results In this study, were sampled 21 farms seven provinces China investigate prevalence FQ resistance, including plasmid-mediated...
Colistin is the last line of defense for treatment multidrug-resistant gram-negative bacterial infections. However, colistin resistance gradually increasing worldwide, with commonly regulated by two-component system and mcr gene. Thus, this study aimed to investigate molecular epidemiology colistin-resistant mechanism mcr-positive mcr-negative Escherichia coli isolates from animal in Sichuan Province, China.
