HER2-positive breast cancer is one of the most prevalent forms of cancer among women worldwide. Generally, the molecular characteristics of this breast cancer include activation of human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2) and hormone receptor activation. HER2-positive is associated with a higher death rate, which led to the development of a monoclonal antibody called trastuzumab, specifically targeting HER2. The success rate of HER2-positive breast cancer treatment has been increased; however, drug resistance remains a challenge...

BACKGROUND: Exercise training can promote cardiac rehabilitation, thereby reducing cardiovascular disease mortality and hospitalization rates. MicroRNAs (miRs) are closely related to heart disease, among which miR-574-3p plays an important role in myocardial remodeling, but its role in exercise-mediated cardioprotection is still unclear. METHODS: A mouse myocardial hypertrophy model was established by transverse aortic coarctation, and a 4-week swimming exercise training was performed 1 week after the operation...

BACKGROUND: Hyperglycemia can promote the development of prostate cancer (PCa). Differential expression levels of miRNAs between PCa patients and controls were also reported. Therefore, we examined the relationship between hyperglycemia and miRNA levels in PCa. METHODS: Relative expression of urinary miR-574-3p, miR-375, miR-205-5p, miR-200b-3p, miR-187-3p, miR-182-5p, and miR-100-5p were investigated in 105 PCa patients and 138 noncancer controls by Real-Time quantitative PCR...

Ovarian cancer is a malignant gynecologic disease rarely diagnosed in the early stages. Among the various types of ovarian cancer, clear cell carcinoma has a poor prognosis due to its malignant potential. MicroRNAs (miRNAs/miRs) regulate gene expression in cells by suppressing the translation of target genes or by degrading the target mRNA. miRNAs are also secreted from the cells in the blood, binding to proteins or lipids and assisting in cell-cell communication. Therefore, serum miRNAs may be considered potential diagnostic biomarkers for ovarian cancer...

Concurrent chemo-radiotherapy (CCRT) is linked with accelerated disease progression and early death (ED) in various cancers. This study aimed to assess the association of plasma levels of exosomal non-coding ribonucleic acid (RNA) (ncRNA) and blood cell dynamics with ED prediction in patients with cervical cancer undergoing CCRT. Using propensity score matching, a comparison of complete blood counts (CBCs) was performed among 370 CCRT-treated patients. Differences in ncRNA and messenger RNA (mRNA) expression before and after CCRT in 84 samples from 42 patients (cohort 2) were represented as logarithmic fold change (log2 FC)...

We established efficient first trimester prediction models for small-for-gestational age (SGA) and fetal growth restriction (FGR) without the presence of preeclampsia (PE) regardless of the gestational age of the onset of the disease [early FGR occurring before 32 gestational week or late FGR occurring after 32 gestational week]. The retrospective study was performed on singleton Caucasian pregnancies (n = 6440) during the period 11/2012-3/2020. Finally, 4469 out of 6440 pregnancies had complete medical records since they delivered in the Institute for the Care of Mother and Child, Prague, Czech Republic...

In our previous report, we presented evidence supporting the role of miR-574-3p in downregulating the expression of cullin 2 (CUL2) in gastric cancer (GC) cells. Expanding on those findings, the present study aims to confirm the direct interaction between miR-574-3p and the 3' untranslated region (3'UTR) of CUL2, which leads to the suppression of CUL2 expression and destabilization of the VCBCR complex. Based on these discoveries, we propose a novel pathway involving miR-574-3p, HIF-1α, and VEGF that contributes to angiogenesis...

We evaluated the potential of cardiovascular-disease-associated microRNAs to predict in the early stages of gestation (from 10 to 13 gestational weeks) the occurrence of a miscarriage or stillbirth. The gene expressions of 29 microRNAs were studied retrospectively in peripheral venous blood samples derived from singleton Caucasian pregnancies diagnosed with miscarriage ( n = 77 cases; early onset, n = 43 cases; late onset, n = 34 cases) or stillbirth ( n = 24 cases; early onset, n = 13 cases; late onset, n = 8 cases; term onset, n = 3 cases) and 80 selected gestational-age-matched controls (normal term pregnancies) using real-time RT-PCR...

This study investigated miRNA and cytokine expression changes in peritoneal fluid samples of patients with advanced ovarian cancer (OVCA) after receiving hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) during cytoreduction surgery (CRS). We collected samples prior to HIPEC, immediately after HIPEC, and 24/48/72 h after CRS from a total of 6 patients. Cytokine levels were assessed using a multiplex cytokine array, and a miRNA PanelChip Analysis System was used for miRNA detection. Following HIPEC, miR-320a-3p, and miR-663-a were found to be immediately down-regulated but increased after 24 h...
