Cortex Mori Radicis extract promotes neurite outgrowth in diabetic rats by activating PI3K/AKT signaling and inhibiting Ca2+ influx associated with the upregulation of transient receptor potential canonical channel 1.
Authors: Lu M, Yi T, Xiong Y, Wang Q, Yin N Abstract Cortex Mori Radicis extract (CMR) has various pharmacological properties, such as anti‑inflammatory, anti‑allergic and anti‑hyperglycemic effects. However, the effects and mechanisms of CMR in the neuroregeneration of diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) are unclear. In the present study, the effects of CMR on neurite outgrowth of dorsal root ganglia (DRG) neurons in diabetic rats were investigated and its underlying mechanisms were explored.

House dust mite induces Sonic hedgehog signaling that mediates epithelial ‑mesenchymal transition in human bronchial epithelial cells.
House dust mite induces Sonic hedgehog signaling that mediates epithelial‑mesenchymal transition in human bronchial epithelial cells. Mol Med Rep. 2019 Sep 26;: Authors: Zou Y, Song W, Zhou L, Mao Y, Hong W Abstract Epithelial‑mesenchymal transition (EMT) provides a valuable source of fibroblasts that produce extracellular matrix in airway walls. The Sonic hedgehog (SHH) signaling pathway plays an essential role in regulating tissue turnover and homeostasis. SHH is strikingly upregulated in the bronchial epithelia during asthma. Snail1 is a major target of SHH signaling, which regulates EMT and fib...

ACSS2/AMPK/PCNA pathway ‑driven proliferation and chemoresistance of esophageal squamous carcinoma cells under nutrient stress.
This study investigated the functions of nutrient stress (NS)‑mediated acetyl‑CoA synthetase short‑chain family member 2 (ACSS2) in cell proliferation and cisplatin‑resistance and examined its combined effects with proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), a key regulator of DNA replication and repair. Here, it was demonstrated that under NS, when the AMP‑activated protein kinase (AMPK) pathway was activated, ESCC cells maintained proliferation and chemoresistance was distinctly upregulated as determined by CCK‑8 assay. As determined using immunoblotting and RT‑qPCR, compared with normal esophageal epithelia...

Phospho ‑regulation of Cdc14A by polo‑like kinase 1 is involved in β‑cell function and cell cycle regulation.
In conclusion, PLK1 promoted cell proliferation and insulin secretion while inhibiting cellular apoptosis in β‑TC3 cell lines under both low and high glucose conditions. In addition, the phospho‑regulation of Cdc14A by PLK1 may be involved in β‑TC3 cell cycle regulation and insulin secretion under high glucose conditions.

Expression and significance of Annexin A3 in the osteosarcoma cell lines HOS and U2OS.
Authors: Zeng X, Wang S, Gui P, Wu H, Li Z Abstract Annexin A3 (ANXA3) is highly expressed in different types of cancers, but the impact of ANXA3 in bone tumors is still not clear. In the present study, the expression of ANXA3 in osteosarcoma cells was first confirmed by cellular immunofluorescence. Reverse transcription‑quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT‑qPCR) and western blot analysis were used to detect the expression of ANXA3 in osteoblasts in the osteosarcoma cell lines U2OS and HOS. Furthermore, small interfering (si)‑RNA were transfected into U2OS and HOS cells via a liposome‑mediated method....
