DNA regulatory motif selection based on support vector machine (SVM) and its application in microarray experiment of Kashin-Beck disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Conserved DNA sequences are essential to investigate the regulation and expression of nearby genes. The conserved regions can interact with certain proteins and can potentially determine the transcription speed and amount of the corresponding mRNA in ...

Abnormal expression of TSG-6 disturbs extracellular matrix homeostasis in chondrocytes from endemic osteoarthritis

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2022
Background and aims: Kashin-Beck disease (KBD) is a unique endemic osteochondropathy with unclear pathogenesis in China. T-2 toxin exposure has been identified as a significant risk factor of KBD.

Extracellular vesicles derived from engineered BMSCs improve damaged cartilage in mice with osteoarthritis by delivering PBX1

open access: yesStem Cell Research & Therapy
Background The beneficial effects of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) have been linked to their secreted extracellular vesicles (EVs). These EVs can suppress cartilage degradation and prevent apoptosis in articular cells.

Epidemiological Support for a Multifactorial Aetiology of Kashin-Beck Disease in Tibet. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
We carried out a cross-sectional study in 12 rural villages in order to identify the risk factors for Kashin-Beck disease in Tibet. Children aged 5-15 years (n=575) were examined and their corresponding houses were visited.

Iodine Intake Increases IP-10 Expression in the Serum and Thyroids of Rats with Experimental Autoimmune Thyroiditis

open access: yesInternational Journal of Endocrinology, 2014
Here, we sought to establish an experimental autoimmune thyroiditis rat model induced by bovine thyroglobulin (bTg) injection and to investigate pathological changes and variations in serum interferon-γ-inducible protein of 10 kDa (IP-10) in thyroid ...

The role of humic substances in drinking water in Kashin-Beck disease in China

open access: yes, 1999
We conducted in vitro and in vivo assays in a selenium-deficient system to determine if organic matter (mainly fulvic acid; FA) is involved in a free radical mechanism of action for Kashin-Beck disease.
