Elevated level of platelet factor 4 in follicular fluid is associated with polycystic ovary syndrome.

Objective: This present study aimed to measure platelet factor 4 (PF4) protein level in follicular fluid of patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and analyzed the correlation between follicular PF4 level with clinical characteristics.

Methods: Sixty-seven women (36 PCOS patients vs. 31 non-PCOS women) were enrolled in the study.

[Retracted] Inhibiting proliferation and migration of lung cancer using small interfering RNA targeting on Aldo‑keto reductase family 1 member B10.

Following the publication of this paper, it was drawn to the Editor's attention by a concerned reader that data from the cell adhesion experiment shown in Fig. 11 were strikingly similar to data appearing in different form in Fig. 6B in another article written by different authors at different research institutes [Huang Z, Li J, Du S, Tang Y, Huang L, Xiao L and Tong P: FKBP14 overexpression contributes to osteosarcoma carcinogenesis and indicates poor survival outcome.

Effect of perioperative nursing for artificial knee replacement on patients with osteosarcoma of the distal femur.

Objective: To investigate the clinical application of perioperative nursing care for patients with osteosarcoma of the distal femur who received artificial knee replacement.

Methods: A total of 80 patients with osteosarcoma of the distal femur admitted to our hospital from March 2019 to March 2020 were selected as research subjects and divided into the control group and the study group according to their admission sequence. The control group was given routine nursing care, while the study group was given perioperative nursing care.

Inhibiting proliferation and migration of lung cancer using small interfering RNA targeting on Aldo-keto reductase family 1 member B10.

Lung cancer is the leading cause of global cancer‑associated mortality. Genomic alterations in lung cancers have not been widely characterized, however, the molecular mechanism of tumor initiation and progression remain unknown, and no molecularly targeted have been specifically developed for its treatment and diagnosis. The present study observed the upregulation of Aldo‑keto reductase family 1 member Bio10 (AKR1B10) lung cancer tissues by analyzing two public lung cancer gene expression datasets.

Inhibition of the growth of non-small cell lung cancer by miRNA-1271.

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is a common lung cancer of high incidence. Since NSCLCs often grow rapidly, it is critical to elucidate the underlying mechanisms. Previous studies have shown that microRNAs (miRNAs) play critical roles in the carcinogenesis of NSCLC.

Functional roles of PC-PLC and Cdc20 in the cell cycle, proliferation, and apoptosis.

Phosphatidylcholine-specific phospholipase C (PC-PLC) is the major enzyme in the Phosphatidylcholine (PC) cycle and is involved in many long-term cellular responses such as activation, proliferation, and differentiation events. Cell division cycle 20 homolog (Cdc20) is an essential cell-cycle regulator required for the completion of mitosis. Our previous studies identified the interaction between PC-PLC and Cdc20.
