ABSTRACT Biliary atresia (BA) is a pediatric liver disease of unknown underlying etiology, in which fibroinflammatory destruction the extrahepatic biliary system leads to obstructive cholestasis. MicroRNAs are class short (18–23 nucleotide), noncoding RNA molecules, act as negative regulators target mRNA stability and translation. The importance these molecules normal diseased has been demonstrated, but their potential role pathogenesis BA not addressed. We have profiled changes microRNA...

A 2‐year randomized placebo‐controlled double‐blind trial of 250 mg day −1 the aldose reductase inhibitor Sorbinil in severe symptomatic chronic peripheral neuropathy was performed 21 diabetic patients. Due to adverse reactions 8 patients completed on and 6 placebo. Despite differences baseline neurophysiological parameters, duration diabetes, presence retinopathy between placebo treatment groups, there were no initial vitro platelet aggregation, albumin excretion rate (AER) or muscle...
The incidence of eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) has increased in the past several years, yet our understanding its pathogenesis remains limited. To test hypothesis that microRNAs (miRNAs) are altered children with EoE, miRNAs were profiled esophageal mucosa biopsies obtained from patients active disease ( n = 5) and healthy control subjects 6). Fourteen significantly between groups; four these decreased EoE patients. A panel five (miR-203, miR-375, miR-21, miR-223, miR-142-3p) selected for...
BackgroundCoronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a viral pulmonary infection that can progress to cytokine storm syndrome because of widespread dysregulated inflammatory response. Many patients at risk for severe COVID-19 manifestation have been identified as those with preexisting conditions origin, well impair appropriate immune response, such obesity.ObjectivesThe aim this study describe the manifestation, clinical course, and biomarker milieu in obesity.SettingUniversity Hospital...
MicroRNAs have been found to play a profound role in embryonic and post-natal development through their regulation of processes such as cell proliferation, differentiation, morphogenesis. The microRNA-30 (miR-30) family is necessary for vertebrate hepatobiliary development; however, the mechanism which miR-30 regulates these not fully understood. Here, we identify genes directly regulated by that characterized key developmental factors. targets were confirmed via luciferase reporter assay,...
Smoking history is a known risk factor for significant chronic diseases as well pulmonary infections; however, the impact of smoking status on coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outcomes has not been conclusively characterized. This study aims to evaluate association COVID-19 outcomes, and explore mechanism by which smoking-related comorbidities relate outcomes.Patients admitted with SARS-CoV-2 infection from November 2020 through January 2021 were included in this study. Causal mediation...
