Background: Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a non-ischemic heart disease that poses substantial global health burden, but its underlying molecular mechanisms remain poorly understood. Methods: Weighted gene co-expression network analysis, differential expression analysis of genes, enriched and LASSO model construction were performed in R software. miRWalk 2.0 StarBase v2.0 used to predict the t...

Introduction: Stomach cancer is the fourth most common and second leading cause of death in world. In addition to significant costs, it imposes many problems on families that a proper justification for identifying related biomarkers. Method : The miRBASE website was used find bioinformatics information. addition, mirWALK miRNASN databases were searched miRNAs To pathways, DAVID KEGG adopted. Re...

Background: In recent years, LncRNA acts as a member of competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA), playing an important role in drug resistance lung cancer. The aim this study was to identify potential biomarkers about cisplatin resistant cancer cells using comprehensive ceRNA network. Methods: GSE6410 (GPL-201) analyzed gene expression changes A549 NSCLC cells. GSE43249 (GPL-14613) included noncoding p...

The role of endothelial cells (ECs) in aortic valve (AV) disease remains relatively unknown; however, disease preferentially occurs in the fibrosa. We hypothesized oscillatory shear (OS) present on the fibrosa stimulates ECs to modify mRNAs and microRNAs (miRNAs) inducing disease. Our goal was to identify mRNAs and miRNAs differentially regulated by OS and laminar shear (LS) in human AVECs (HAV...

Mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM) participates in the process of mitochondrial DNA replication and transcription. microRNAs (miRNAs) serve an important role in the regulation of gene expression. However, the roles of TFAM and certain miRNAs and their associations in the development of numerous cancer types remain unclear. The current study demonstrated that the expression of TFAM was ...

Osteosarcoma remains a leading cause of cancer death in children and young adolescents. Although the introduction of multiagent chemotherapy, survival rates have not improved in two decades. Therefore, it is urgently needed to know the details regarding molecular etiology to driving therapeutic inroads for this disease. In this study we performed an integrated analysis of miRNA and mRNA express...

A crucial system severely affected in several neuromuscular diseases is the loss of effective connection between muscle and nerve, leading to a pathological non-communication between the two tissues. One of the best examples of impaired interplay between muscle and nerve is Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, a neurodegenerative disease characterized by degeneration of motor neurons and muscle atrop...

Objective: MicroRNAs (miRs) are class of small non-coding regulatory RNA aberrantly expressed in various types of malignancies including prostate cancer and serves as potential targets to develop new diagnostic and therapeutic strategies. In this quiet we investigated miRNAs expression profile in benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and prostate cancer (PCa) tissue samples and correlated their ex...

OBJECTIVE Increasing evidence has demonstrated that microRNAs (miRNAs) play a critical role in the progression of metabolic disorders, including obesity-induced non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). In the present study, the expression and function of miR-367 were investigated. MATERIALS AND METHODS C57BL/6 male mice aged 8 weeks were fed with a normal diet (ND) or high-fat-diet (HFD). T...

Epilepsy is the most common serious neurological disorder worldwide, however, the specific causative factors and mechanisms underlying epilepsy remain unclear. The current study aimed to study the potential genes or pathways associated with epilepsy, based on rat miRNA expression profiles. The microarray dataset GSE49850 was downloaded and analyzed with the TimeCourse R software package, which ...
