Inhibition of lncRNA < em > SNHG8 < /em > plays a protective role in  hypoxia-ischemia-reoxygenation-induced myocardial injury by regulating miR-335 and RASA1 expression
Mol Med Rep. 2021 Aug;24(2):597. doi: 10.3892/mmr.2021.12236. Epub 2021 Jun 24.ABSTRACTLong non‑coding (lnc)RNAs serve a role in a number of diseases, including different types of cancer and acute myocardial infarction. The aim of the present study was to investigate the protective role of lncRNA small nucleolar RNA host gene 8 (SNHG8) in hypoxia‑ischemia‑reoxygenation (HI/R)‑induced myocardial injury and its potential mechanism of action. Cell viability, proliferation, creatine kinase myocardial band, cell apoptosis and protein expression levels were determined by Cell Counting Kit‑8 assay, EdU assay, ELISA, flo...

Tripterygium glycoside suppresses epithelial ‑to‑mesenchymal transition of diabetic kidney disease podocytes by targeting autophagy through the mTOR/Twist1 pathway
Mol Med Rep. 2021 Aug;24(2):592. doi: 10.3892/mmr.2021.12231. Epub 2021 Jun 24.ABSTRACTTripterygium glycoside (TG) is a traditional Chinese medicine extract with immunosuppressive, anti‑inflammatory and anti‑renal fibrosis effects. Epithelial‑mesenchymal transition (EMT) and cell apoptosis are considered to be the major cause of podocyte injury in diabetic kidney disease (DKD). However, it remains unknown as to whether TG is able to alleviate podocyte injury to prevent DKD progression. Therefore, the present study aimed to clarify the podocyte protective effects of TG on DKD. TG, Twist1 small interfering RNA (siRNA) ...

Effects of sterol derivatives in cationic liposomes on  biodistribution and gene-knockdown in the lungs of mice systemically injected with siRNA lipoplexes
Mol Med Rep. 2021 Aug;24(2):598. doi: 10.3892/mmr.2021.12237. Epub 2021 Jun 24.ABSTRACTCationic liposomes can be intravenously injected to deliver short interfering (si)RNAs into the lungs. The present study investigated the effects of sterol derivatives in systemically injected siRNA/cationic liposome complexes (siRNA lipoplexes) on gene‑knockdown in the lungs of mice. Cationic liposomes composed of 1,2‑dioleoyl‑3‑trimethylammonium‑propane or dimethyldioctadecylammonium bromide (DDAB) were prepared as a cationic lipid, with sterol derivatives such as cholesterol (Chol), β‑sitosterol, ergosterol (Ergo) or stig...

MicroRNA ‑421 attenuates macrophage‑mediated inflammation by inhibiting PDCD4 < em > in  vitro < /em >
In conclusion, the present study demonstrated the protective effect of miR‑421 on ALI and showed that miR‑421 attenuates LPS‑induced ALI by inhibiting PDCD4 and NF‑κB. These findings provided a theoretical basis for the treatment of ALI.PMID:34036390 | DOI:10.3892/mmr.2021.12166

Transforming growth factor ‑β1 functions as a competitive endogenous RNA that ameliorates intracranial hemorrhage injury by sponging microRNA‑93‑5p
Mol Med Rep. 2021 Jul;24(1):499. doi: 10.3892/mmr.2021.12138. Epub 2021 May 6.ABSTRACTIntracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) has the highest mortality rate of all stroke subtypes but an effective treatment has yet to be clinically implemented. Transforming growth factor‑β1 (TGF‑β1) has been reported to modulate microglia‑mediated neuroinflammation after ICH and promote functional recovery; however, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Non‑coding RNAs such as microRNAs (miRNAs) and competitive endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs) have surfaced as critical regulators in human disease. A known miR‑93 target, nuclear factor eryth...
