Article Abstract
miRNAs represent a type of noncoding small molecule RNA. Many studies have shown that miRNAs are widely involved in the regulation of various pathways. The key to fully understanding the regulatory function of miRNAs is the determination of the pathways in which the miRNAs participate. However, the major pathway databases such as KEGG only include information regarding protein-coding genes. Here, we redesigned a pathway database (called miR+Pathway) by integrating and visualizing the 8882 human experimentally validated miRNA-target interactions (MTIs) and 150 KEGG pathways. This database is freely accessible at http://www.insect-genome.com/miR-pathway. Researchers can intuitively determine the pathways and the genes in the pathways that are regulated by miRNAs as well as the miRNAs that target the pathways. To determine the pathways in which targets of a certain miRNA or multiple miRNAs are enriched, we performed a KEGG analysis miRNAs by using the hypergeometric test. In addition, miR+Pathway provides information regarding MTIs, PubMed IDs and the experimental verification method. Users can retrieve pathways regulated by an miRNA or a gene by inputting its names.

This study investigates the effects of L-carnitine on nuclear maturation and fertilization in cattle and goat oocytes. Ovaries were collected from females with poor reproductive efficiency in the tropical climate, and cumulus-oocyte complexes (COCs) were retrieved from large antral follicles. COCs were cultured with varying concentrations of L-carnitine (0, 0.

Background: Initially limited to inpatient use, negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) is now frequently used in community settings. However, complexities in wound management step-down strategies in the United Kingdom, including regional variations in referral processes, lack of consensus on funding criteria, and limited availability of NPWT units, have led to extended hospital length of stay (LOS) for patients ready for discharge but still needing NPWT. Single-use NPWT (sNPWT) can serve as a bridge between hospital and community NPWT.

Disruptions in synaptic transmission and plasticity are early hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Endosomal trafficking, mediated by the retromer complex, is essential for intracellular protein sorting, including the regulation of amyloid precursor protein (APP) processing. The VPS35 subunit, a key cargo-recognition component of the retromer, has been implicated in neurodegenerative diseases, with mutations such as L625P linked to early-onset AD.

Background: PPM1D (protein phosphatase Mg⁺/Mn⁺ dependent 1D) is a Ser/Thr phosphatase that negatively regulates p53 and functions as an oncogenic driver. Its gene amplification and overexpression are frequently observed in various malignancies and disruption of PPM1D degradation has also been reported as a cause of cancer progression. However, the precise mechanisms regulating PPM1D stability remain to be elucidated.
