Assessment of conjunctival, episcleral and scleral thickness in healthy individuals using anterior segment optical coherence tomography

Acta Ophthalmologica, Volume 102, Issue 5, Page 573-580, August 2024.
Abstract Purpose To determine the thickness of the conjunctiva, episclera and sclera in healthy individuals using anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS‐OCT). Methods We prospectively included 107 healthy individuals of different age groups (18–39 years, 40–54 years, 55–69 years and ≥70 years).

Overexpression of miR-340 inhibits cell proliferation and induces apoptosis of human bladder cancer via targeting Glut-1

BMC Urology, 2021
Background Bladder cancer (BC) has high mortality due to distant metastasis. Previous works suggested that microRNA (miRNA)-340 is a critical regulator for the development and progression of various cancers. The specific biological function of miR-340 in

Radiocarbon dates from the Netherlands and Doggerland as a proxy for vegetation and faunal biomass between 55 and 5 ka cal bp

Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 39, Issue 2, Page 248-260, February 2024.
ABSTRACT Three hundred forty‐one radiocarbon dates from the Groningen radiocarbon database are compiled in this study. They show for the first time that organic sediment samples from the eastern Netherlands and mammal bones from Doggerland reflect shifts in the presence and the density of vegetation (food for herbivores) and mammal biomass during the ...

LncRNA RUSC1-AS1 promotes osteosarcoma progression through regulating the miR-340-5p and PI3K/AKT pathway

Aging, 2021
Dysregulation of long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) is frequently involved in the progression and development of osteosarcoma. LncRNA RUSC1-AS1 is reported to be upregulated and acts as an oncogene in hepatocellular carcinoma, cervical cancer and breast cancer.

Strong Substrate Influence on Atomic Structure and Properties of Epitaxial VO2 Thin Films

Advanced Materials Interfaces, Volume 11, Issue 3, January 25, 2024.
Scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) is used to study cross‐sections of epitaxial VO2 films grown using pulsed laser deposition on three substrates – c‐sapphire, TiO2 (101), and TiO2 (001). The macroscale differences in the metal–insulator transition characteristics of the films are linked to the structures on the nanoscale, where oxygen ...

PNO1, which is negatively regulated by miR-340-5p, promotes lung adenocarcinoma progression through Notch signaling pathway

Oncogenesis, 2020
Many studies have shown that the hyperactivation of ribosome biogenesis plays essential roles in the initiation and progression of cancers. As a ribosome assembly factor, PNO1 plays an important role in ribosome biogenesis. However, little is known about

Dexmedetomidine Attenuates Neuroinflammation In LPS-Stimulated BV2 Microglia Cells Through Upregulation Of miR-340

Drug Design, Development and Therapy, 2019
Background Dexmedetomidine (Dex) was reported to exhibit anti-inflammatory effect in the nervous system. However, the mechanism by which Dex exhibits anti-inflammation effects on LPS-stimulated BV2 microglia cells remains unclear.

Control of PD-L1 expression by miR-140/142/340/383 and oncogenic activation of the OCT4–miR-18a pathway in cervical cancer

Oncogene, 2018
PD-L1, a key inhibitory immune receptor, has crucial functions in cancer immune evasion, but whether PD-L1 promotes the malignant properties of cervical cancer (CC) cells and the mechanism by which PD-L1 is regulated in CC remains unclear. We report that
