Accumulating evidence has indicated that microRNAs (miRNAs or miRs) play important roles in the developing rat brain. In this study, we investigated the role of miRNAs in the brains of immature (20-80 days) rats with liquid nitrogen lesion-induced focal cortical dysplasia. miRNA microarray demonstrated that the expression of miR-139‑5p was associated with cortical development. Bioinformatic ana...

INTRODUCTION Increasing evidence suggested that microRNAs (miRNAs) play a critical role in tumorigenesis. Decreased expression of miRNA-139-5p has been observed in various types of cancers. However, the biological function of miRNA-139-5p in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is still largely unknown. METHODS Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) was used to explore the expression level of miR...

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play an important role in the regulation of gene expression and are involved in almost biological procession. Recently, miR-139-5p has been reported to be downregulated in some types of cancer, and inhibits cancer cell invasion and metastasis. However, there are few reports on the role of miR-139-3p in cancer. In this study, we examined the expression level of miR-139-3p in 6...

This article documents the muon reconstruction and identification efficiency obtained by ATLAS experiment for 139 fb$^{-1}$ of $pp$ collision data at $\sqrt{s}=13$ TeV collected between 2015 2018 during Run 2 LHC. The increased instantaneous luminosity delivered LHC over this period required a reoptimisation criteria prompt muons. Improved newly developed algorithms were deployed to preserve hi...

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a serious monogenic disease characterized by cardiac hypertrophy, fibrosis, sudden cardiac death, and heart failure. Previously, we identified that miR-139-5p was down-regulated in HCM patients. However, the regulatory effects of miR-139-5p remain unclear. Thus, we investigated the role of miR-139-5p in the regulation of cardiac hypertrophy. The expression o...

The rise of bleeding and bleeding complications caused by oral anticoagulant use are serious problems nowadays. Strategies that block the initiation step in blood coagulation involving activated factor VII-tissue factor (fVIIa-TF) have been considered. This study explores toxic Microcystis aeruginosa K-139, from Lake Kasumigaura, Ibaraki, Japan, as a promising cyanobacterium for isolation of fV...
