Comprehensive profiling of lncRNAs and mRNAs enriched in small extracellular vesicles for early noninvasive detection of colorectal cancer: diagnostic panel assembly and extensive validation

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Small extracellular vesicles are a promising source of diagnostic molecules. We conducted a comprehensive study, including transcriptome profiling and RT‐qPCR validation on large cohorts of samples. Diagnostic panels enabling sensitive detection of colorectal cancer and precancerous lesions were established. Some molecules were differentially expressed

Growth Differentiation Factor 15 Elevation in the Central Nervous System Is Associated With Failure to Thrive in Alexander Disease

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Alexander disease (AxD) is a severe neurodegenerative disorder caused by gain‐of‐function mutations in the gene for GFAP, which lead to protein aggregation and a primary astrocytopathy. Symptoms vary, but failure to thrive (FTT) and frequent emesis are common and cause significant morbidity. Here we investigate GDF15, a member of the

Modified triglyceride-glucose indices as novel predictors of metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease in US adolescents: a nationally representative study from NHANES 2017–2020

BMC Gastroenterology
Background Metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) has become the most prevalent chronic liver condition in adolescents. The triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index, a surrogate marker of insulin resistance, has shown promise in adult MAFLD

Glucose absorption in the duodenum is modulated by an estrogen receptor α-dependent regulation of glucose transporter functional expression

BMJ Open Diabetes Research & Care
Introduction The mechanisms of estrogen in glucose metabolism are well established; however, the role of this hormone in glucose absorption remains unclear. In this study, we investigated the effects of estrogen on glucose absorption in humans, mice, and

Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection of an Inverted Early Gastric Cancer-Forming False Gastric Diverticulum [PDF]

Clinical Endoscopy, 2016
Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is a standard treatment for early gastric cancer (EGC) that does not have any risk of lymph node or distant metastases. Here, we report a case of EGC resembling a diverticulum.
