MicroRNA-27b expression in rats submitted to physical exercise and experimental cerebral ischemia

Int. j. morphol; 39 (3), 2021
SUMMARY: Cerebral ischemia has not only a high mortality rate, which is the second leading cause of death worldwide, but is also responsible for severe disabilities in working age individuals, generating enormous public expending for treatment and rehabilitation of the affected individuals. The role of m...

Expression of MicroRNA-1281, C-Reactive Protein, and Renal Function in Individuals with Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm and their Clinical Correlation after Endovascular Repair

Abstract Introduction: The treatment of infrarenal aortic aneurysms has changed in the last three decades. Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) has become the primary treatment option in anatomically suitable patients with infrarenal aortic aneurysms. However, there is no serum biomarker to be used in EV...

Evaluation of serum microRNA-30e-5p expression in systemic lupus erythematosus and its association with clinical manifestations: A cross-sectional study

Rev. colomb. reumatol; 28 (2), 2021
ABSTRACT Background: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are non-coding RNAs that regulate gene expression post-transcriptionally. Accumulating evidence indicates that the miR-30 family takes part in the development of multiple tissues and organs, and is a potential contributor to various dis eases, including autoimmun...

A Inibição do Metabolismo da Glicose por miR-34a e miR-125b Protege contra a Morte Celular de Cardiomiócitos Causada por Hiperglicemia

Arq. bras. cardiol; 116 (3), 2021
Resumo Fundamento: É sabido que a resistência à insulina e a hiperglicemia são causas patológicas importantes no desenvolvimento de cardiomiopatia diabética (CMD). Entretanto, seus mecanismos moleculares precisos na patogênese da CMD ainda não estão claros. Objetivos: Estudos recentes revelam ...

Efeito crônico da ingestão de suco de laranja sanguínea sobre o perfil de expressão de microRNA e resposta inflamatória em mulheres com sobrepeso

Introdução: A obesidade está diretamente envolvida na etiologia de doenças crônicas não transmissíveis (DCNT). A ingestão excessiva de nutrientes associada à obesidade culmina na ativação de vias de sinalização pró-inflamatórias em diferentes locais do organismo, acarretando uma inflamaç...

Estudo das vesículas extracelulares de Toxoplasma gondii e a correlação com a infecção humana

Toxoplasma gondii é causador da toxoplasmose, uma das doenças mais prevalentes no mundo. Estudos recentes mostraram que vesículas extracelulares (EVs) liberadas por parasitas participam no processo de invasão e replicação no hospedeiro, porém o mecanismo de infecção ainda não está completament...

Serum mir-195-5p exhibits clinical significance in the diagnosis of essential hypertension with type 2 diabetes

Clinics; 76 (), 2021
OBJECTIVES: Diagnosis and management of essential hypertension (EH) or type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) by combining comprehensive treatment and classificatory diagnosis have been continuously improved. However, understanding the pathogenesis of EH patients with concomitant T2DM and subsequent treatment r...

CircularRNA_0119872 regulates the microRNA-582-3p/E2F transcription factor 3 pathway to promote the progression of malignant melanoma

Clinics; 76 (), 2021
OBJECTIVES: Malignant melanoma (MM) is an invasive tumor that poses a threat to patient health. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are important regulators of MM carcinogenesis. In this study, we investigated the expression characteristics and biological functions of, and mechanism underlying, circ_0119872 express...

Diagnostic and prognostic value of serum miR-9-5p and miR-128-3p levels in early-stage acute ischemic stroke

Clinics; 76 (), 2021
OBJECTIVES: To investigate the clinical utility of serum microRNA levels (miR-9-5p and miR-128-3p) in the diagnosis and prognosis of early-stage acute ischemic stroke (AIS). METHODS: We compared the differences in serum miR-9-5p and miR-128-3p levels between patients with AIS and healthy individuals (co...

Trdmt1 3'-untranslated region functions as a competing endogenous RNA in leukemia HL-60 cell differentiation

Braz. j. med. biol. res; 54 (2), 2021
Severe blockage in myeloid differentiation is the hallmark of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Trdmt1 plays an important role in hematopoiesis. However, little is known about the function of Trdmt1 in AML cell differentiation. In the present study, Trdmt1 was up-regulated and miR-181a was down-regulated sig...
