Complement factor B in high glucose–induced podocyte injury and diabetic kidney disease
Qingmiao Lu,Qing Hou,Kai Cao,Xiaoli Sun,Yan Liang,Mengru Gu,Xian Xue,Allan Z. Zhao,Chunsun Dai +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the role and mechanisms for upregulating complement factor B (CFB) expression in podocyte dysfunction in diabetic kidney disease (DKD) are not fully understood.
Journal ArticleDOI
Human C-reactive protein impedes entry of leptin into the CNS and attenuates its physiological actions in the CNS
Jie Li,Dong Wei,Mark A. McCrory,Alexander J. Szalai,Gangyi Yang,Ling Li,Li Fanghong,Allan Z. Zhao +7 more
TL;DR: Testing whether circulating human CRP not only diminishes signalling of leptin within the CNS, but also impedes this adipokine's access to the CNS found that peripheral infusion of human leptin was associated with significantly decreased leptin content in the CSF of ob/ob mice.
Journal ArticleDOI
An Ω-3 fatty acid desaturase-expressing gene attenuates prostate cancer proliferation by cell cycle regulation
Jinshun Pan,Zhou Sujin,Rong Xiang,Zhao Zhenggang,Shanshan Liu,Ning Ding,Gong Sijia,Lin Yan,Xiaoxi Li,Xiaoming Bai,Li Fanghong,Allan Z. Zhao +11 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that msdd17 gene transfection suppressed prostate cancer cell proliferation and induced G2 cell cycle arrest and reduced E2F transcription factor 1 expression in prostate cancer cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Whole transcriptome sequencing analyses of DHA treated glioblastoma cells.
Miaomiao Ruan,Miaomiao Ruan,Jiying Liu,Xueyang Ren,Chu Li,Allan Z. Zhao,Lin Li,Haiyuan Yang,Yifan Dai,Ying Wang +9 more
TL;DR: It is shown that DHA could repress the migration and invasion of GBM U251 cells and promote their apoptosis in a dose- and time-dependent manner, indicating that D HA has an anticancer effect on GBM cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cellular apoptosis susceptibility protein (CAS) suppresses the proliferation of breast cancer cells by upregulated cyp24a1.
TL;DR: Observations clarified the previous conflicting results on the cell fates of the breast cells regulated by CAS and provide new insight into the role of CAS in the development of breast cancer.
