Review ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMicroRNA-92a: The Administrator of Certain DiseasesZhiyuan Sun, Qing Xu, Xiaoyi Tian et al.MicroRNA-92a (miR-92a) is an evolutionarily conserved noncoding small RNA that can regulate gene expression after transcription. Previous studies have found that miR-92a is overexpressed in many tumors and can regulate numerous tumor suppressor genes negatively, with relevant effects on the development of different tumors, by regulating the DUSP10/c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), phosphatase and tensin homologs (PTEN)/AKT, Wnt and EP4/Notch1 signaling … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 16, Issue 2 · 21 May 2020 · 6,494 accessesView PDF Cite

EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractNeutrophil Extracellular Traps as Therapeutic Targets for Inflammatory DiseaseRory R. KoenenNeutrophilic granulocytes, or neutrophils are the most abundant circulating white blood cell and constitute a first line of defense against pathogens. They are characterized by a large polymorphic lobular nucleus and the presence of many secretory granules in their cytoplasm. Neutrophils are essential for a functional host defense, as is evidenced by the occurrence of severe infections in individuals with … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 25 Feb 2015 · 8,737 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRadiation-Induced Cognitive Dysfunction After Different Schemes of Fractionated Whole Brain IrradiationZorkina Yana Alexandrovna, Zubkov Eugene Andreevich, Yusubalieva Gaukhar Maratovna et al.Radiation-induced cognitive dysfunction is a serious complication of radiation therapy. In humans, numerous cases of radiation damage have been recorded after irradiation for therapeutic purposes. The degree of cognitive dysfunctions and its dependence on biological effective doses should be tested in animal preclinical models to minimize radiation side effects. Fractionated whole brain irradiation was performed according to the following schemes: … …Neuroscience International, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 14 Jan 2015 · 7,256 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of D- and L-Glucose and Mannitol on Retinal Capillary Cells: Inhibition by Nanomolar AminoguanidineYongxin Yu, Wei Li, Barbara Wojciechowski et al.Hyperglycemia may contribute directly to pericyte loss and capillary leakage in early diabetic retinopathy. To elucidate relative contributions of glycation, glycoxidation, sugar autoxidation, osmotic stress and metabolic effects in glucose-mediated capillary damage, we tested the effects of D-glucose, L-glucose, mannitol and the potentially protective effects of aminoguanidine on cultured bovine retinal capillary pericytes and endothelial cells. Media (containing 5 mM … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,749 accessesView PDF Cite
