MiR-18a-5p Attenuates Oxidative Stress and Inhibits Lipid Accumulation in Alcoholic Fatty Liver by Activating the CYP1A1-PPAR Axis. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Lipid deposition in alcoholic fatty liver disease (AFL) represents an early stage in alcoholic liver disease progression and may contribute to carcinogenesis. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play critical regulatory roles in liver biological processes. Methods In this study, we explored the miR‐18a‐5p/CYP1A1/PPAR axis in AFL using bioinformatics

Meta-Analysis of CYP1A1 MspI and Ile462Val Polymorphisms in Cancer Susceptibility Among Different Ethnic Populations. [PDF]
ABSTRACT The Cytochrome P450 1A1 (CYP1A1) gene plays a crucial role in the production of enzymes involved in the metabolic activation and detoxification of harmful carcinogens, which are essential for genetic susceptibility to cancer. Due to the inconsistent findings obtained from population‐based studies, it is crucial to systematically investigate ...

Effects of Aerosol Extract From Heated Tobacco Products on Senescence-Associated Gene Expression in Human Lung Fibroblasts. [PDF]
Repeated exposure to aerosols from heated tobacco products may affect senescence‐associated factors. ABSTRACT Aim Cellular senescence is associated with an increased risk of various diseases. Although heated tobacco products (HTPs) have become widespread substitutes for conventional combustible cigarettes, their role in cellular senescence remains ...

Evaluation of Indigo Naturalis Prepared Using a Novel Method: Anti-Inflammatory Activities Against Colonic Cancer Cell Lines. [PDF]
Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and cancerous transformation of UC is closely associated with chronic inflammation of colonic tissues. Indigo naturalis (IN) prepared using a novel method (NIN) has exhibited beneficial efficacy against inflammatory and cancerous colonic cells.

Purification, molecular cloning, heterologous expression and characterization of pig CYP1A2 [PDF]
Porcine cytochrome P450 (CYP) 1A2 was purified to electrophoretic homogeneity from the hepatic microsomes of -naphthoflavone-treated male pigs. In a reconstituted system, this enzyme showed a good catalytic activity towards caffeine, acetanilide, and ...
