[ 1 ] - Association of MiR-146a Expression and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: A Meta-Analysis

Although deregulation of miR-146a has been reported in type 2 diabetes repeatedly, the direction of deregulation events (up or down) remained to be inconsistent in literatures.  Therefore, in this study, we performed a meta-analysis on the possible association between miR-146a expression levels and type 2 diabetes. A systematic literature searching of PubMed, ISI Web of Science and Google ...

[ 2 ] - Study of Association Between TLR4 D299G and T399I Polymorphisms and Risk of Gastric Cancer

Introduction:Gastrointestinal cancers constitute more than one-third of the most common cancers and half of the fatal cancers worldwide. Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are identified as pivotal receptors in innate immunity responses. TLR4 is the main receptor that plays a role in lipopolysaccharide  (LPS)  sensing  of  gram-positive  bacteria.  D299G  (rs4986790)&...

[ 4 ] - The Effect of N-Acetylcysteine Administration to Prevent Anthracycline-Induced Cardiotoxicity in Breast Cancer Patients

Introduction: Anthracyclines are one of the classes of chemotherapy drugs that are widely used to treat many types of cancers including breast cancer. Taking this class of medications has a significant relationship with cardiac dysfunction. N-acetylcysteine has antioxidant properties and may be effective in preventing cardiac dysfunctions. In this study, we investigated the effect of N-acetylc...
