Chemoresistance is a key obstacle in the clinical treatment and management of activated B cell-like diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (ABC-DLBCL), which leads to the poor prognosis of patients. Exploring novel biomarkers to early warn drug resistance and ameliorate the patients' outcome in ABC-DLBCL is urgent and crucial. Previously, we found that insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 3 (IGFBP3) was remarkably associated with immunochemotherapy treatment response through microarray screening.

Porphyromonas gingivalis plays an oncogenic role in development and progression of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). However, the impact of P. gingivalis on local recurrence of early ESCC or precancerous lesion after ESD treatment remains unknown. The present study aimed to evaluate the impact of P. gingivalis on local recurrence after ESD treatment of early ESCC or high-grade dysplasia (HGD).The amount of P. gingivalis was assessed by immunohistochemistry in 205 patients with early ESCC or HGD.

Shifts in normal aging set stage for neurodegeneration and dementia affecting 1 in 10 adults. The study demonstrates that lncRNA GAS5 is decreased in aged and Alzheimer's disease brain. The role and targets of lncRNA GAS5 in the aging brain were elucidated using a GAS5-targeting small molecule NPC86, a frontier in lncRNA-targeting therapeutic.

Embryonic ethanol exposure in zebrafish and rats, while stimulating hypothalamic hypocretin/orexin (Hcrt) neurons along with alcohol consumption and related behaviors, increases the chemokine receptor Cxcr4 that promotes neuronal migration and may mediate ethanol's effects on neuronal development. Here we performed a more detailed anatomical analysis in zebrafish of ethanol's effects on the Cxcl12a/Cxcr4b system throughout the entire brain as it relates to Hcrt neurons developing within the anterior hypothalamus (AH) where they are normally located.

The chronic use of morphine and other opioids is associated with opioid-induced hypersensitivity (OIH) and analgesic tolerance. Among the different forms of OIH and tolerance, the opioid receptors and cell types mediating opioid-induced mechanical allodynia and anti-allodynic tolerance remain unresolved. Here we demonstrated that the loss of peripheral μ-opioid receptors (MORs) or MOR-expressing neurons attenuated thermal tolerance, but did not affect the expression and maintenance of morphine-induced mechanical allodynia and anti-allodynic tolerance.

This review describes how advances in CyTOF and high-dimensional analysis methods have furthered our understanding of HIV transmission, pathogenesis, persistence, and immunity.CyTOF has generated important insight on several aspects of HIV biology: (1) the differences between cells permissive to productive vs.

Ameloblastoma (AB) is the most common benign, epithelial odontogenic tumor that occurs in the jawbone. AB is a slow-growing, benign epithelial tumor but shows locally invasive growth, with bone resorption or recurrence if not adequately resected. From these points of view, understanding the mechanism of AB-induced bone resorption is necessary for better clinical therapy and improving patients’ quality of life. In bone resorption, osteoclasts play critical roles, and RANKL is a pivotal regulator of osteoclastogenesis.

Development from single cells to multicellular tissues and organs involves more than just the exact replication of cells, which is known as differentiation. The primary focus of research into the mechanism of differentiation has been differences in gene expression profiles between individual cells. However, it has predominantly been conducted at low throughput and bulk levels, challenging the efforts to understand molecular mechanisms of differentiation during the developmental process in animals and humans.

Most cells in the body are mononuclear whereas skeletal muscle fibres are uniquely multinuclear. The nuclei of muscle fibres (myonuclei) are usually situated peripherally which complicates the equitable distribution of gene products. Myonuclear abundance can also change under conditions such as hypertrophy and atrophy. Specialised zones in muscle fibres have different functions and thus distinct synthetic demands from myonuclei.
