Recent evidence indicates that miR-17-92 family might be an essential prognostic biomarker for human cancers. However, results are still inconsistent. We therefore performed a meta-analysis to evaluate the predictive role of miR-17-92 family in human cancer prognosis. We searched literatures published before March 31th, 2017 inPubMed, Cochrane and Embase databases. Twenty six studies were inclu...

The TRPC ion channels are candidates for the store-operated Ca(2+) entry pathway activated in response to depletion of intracellular Ca(2+) stores. Hydropathy analyses indicate that these proteins contain eight hydrophobic regions (HRs) that could potentially form alpha-helical membrane-spanning segments. Based on limited sequence similarities to other ion channels, it has been proposed that on...

Background: Natural medicines have been recently considered more reasonable for human use most notably due to their safety and tolerance. HESA-A is a marine-originated herbal medicine with a variety of healing effects. However, its exact biological mechanism is not clear. The pre-sent study aimed at the evaluation of the HESA-A antioxidant effect. Methods: Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) an...

Besides theoretical enthusiasm and knowledge-driven curiosity, there is no doubt that the growth in health and medical expenses during the last three decades and that this growth has exceeded the economic growth rate of every country in the world. In fact, these have been the major factors pushing the health economy and its’ affiliated disciplines. Health care expenses are increasingly growing ...
