The cell growth inhibition was induced by apoptosis which was expressed via chromatin condensation and PS externalization. MOE decreased mitochondrial membrane potential. Additionally, MOE increased Bax/Bcl-2 ratio, activated Caspase-3/7, Caspase-9, PARP and AIF translocation, leading to apoptotic cell death. Our study indicated that MOE exerted significant anti-cancer effects on melanoma cells in vitro which involved mitochondria-mediated Caspase-dependent and Caspase-independent apoptosis pathways. These results provided a scientific approach for using Moringa oleifera leaves as an alternative therapy to treat skin cancer.The homeobox transcription factor MEIS1 is involved in cell fate decision, stem cells properties, gastrointestinal (GI) tract development, and progression of several malignancies such as esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). Increasing evidences suggest the crosstalk between MEIS1 and cell signaling pathways. Therefore, our aim in present study was to investigate the probable linkage of MEIS1 expression with key genes of different cell signaling pathways in ESCC tumorigenesis, and their correlation with clinicopathological feature of the patients. The gene expression profiling of MEIS1 and different cell signaling genes including SALL4, SIZN1, and HEY1 (stemness state, BMP, and NOTCH signaling pathways, respectively) was performed using quantitative real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in fresh tumoral compared to margin normal tissues of 50 treatment-naive ESCC samples. The mRNA expression of MEIS1/SIZN1, SIZN1/HEY1, and SIZN1/SALL4 were significantly associated to each other (P  less then  0.05). There were remarkable correlations between concomitant mRNA expression of MEIS1 and SIZN1 in tumors with invasion to adventitia, early stages of tumor progression and poorly differentiated tumors. Moreover, expression of MEIS1 and HEY1 was correlated to each other in primary stages of tumor progression and non-invaded tumors. Expression of MEIS1 was significantly associated with SALL4 in poorly differentiated tumors. Our results indicated that correlation between different cell signaling pathway-related genes may lead to esophageal tumorigenesis. It is illustrated that MEIS1 as a HOX gene has a significant correlation with stemness state, BMP, and NOTCH signaling pathways via the SIZN1.Here, we document changes in cell motility and organization of the contractile apparatus of human umbilical cord Wharton's jelly mesenchymal stem cells (MSCWJ-1) in the process of replicative senescence. Colocalization dynamics of F-actin and actin-binding proteins (myosin-9, α-actinin-4, RhoA) were examined in the MSCWJ-1 cell line. The results show that nuclear-cytoplasmic redistribution of RhoA occurs during replicative senescence, with maximal RhoA/nucleus colocalization evident at passage 15. At that time point, decreases in colocalization, namely myosin-9/F-actin and α-actinin-4/F-actin, were seen and myosin-9 was found in cytosolic extracts in the assembly-incompetent form. Using an automated intravital confocal cytometry system and quantitative analysis of MSCWJ-1 movements, we found that changes in cytoskeletal organization correlate with cell motility characteristics over a time period from passages 9 to 38. The factors examined (cytoskeleton structure, cell motility) indicate that the process by which cells transition to replicative senescence is best represented as three stages. The first stage lasts from cell culture isolation to passage 15 and is characterized by accumulation of actin-binding proteins in assembly-incompetent forms; nuclear RhoA accumulation; and an increase in movement tortuosity. The second stage extends from passages 15 to 28 and is characterized by an increase in the structural integrity of the actin cytoskeleton; exit of RhoA and alpha-actinin-4 from the nucleus; and a decrease in path tortuosity. The third stage extends from passage 28 to 38 and is marked by a plateau in actin cytoskeleton structural integrity; significant decreases in nuclear RhoA levels; and decreases in cell speed.BACKGROUND It is unclear whether subjective or objective measures of sleep during pregnancy are more pertinent to pregnancy outcomes. Moreover, it is unclear as to whether subjective indices (i.e., those likely influenced by psychological thoughts and emotions) are more likely than objective measures to modify inflammatory cytokines. METHOD Subjective and objective measures of sleep were collected from 166 pregnant women. Sleep data, both aggregate and variability measures, from diary and actigraphy, were ascertained for three 2-week periods during early gestation (10-20 weeks). selleck chemicals A fasting morning blood sample was assayed for the cytokines (IL-6, IFN-γ, and TNF-α). Sleep, stress, and depression questionnaires were also collected. Repeated measures ANOVAs, regression models, and independent t tests were used to analyze the data. RESULTS Diary-assessed total sleep time (p  less then  .05) and actigraphy-assessed sleep latency (p = .05) were negatively associated with gestational age. Variability in actigraphy-assessed sleep latency (p  less then  .01) was negatively associated with infant weight. None of the cytokines was associated with any of the outcomes. t tests revealed that those with a complication were older (p  less then  .05) and had higher pre-pregnancy BMI (p  less then  .05), higher self-reported stress (p  less then  .05), and lower IFN-γ (p  less then  .05). CONCLUSION Findings suggest that longer and more variable sleep latency, as well as shorter sleep duration, is associated with shorter gestational age or a lower birth weight infant. Overall, the findings suggest that among a low-risk, healthy sample of pregnant women, sleep disturbance does not pose a substantial risk for adverse delivery outcomes.To validate externally and recalibrate three European risk scores for all-cause mortality and transplantation in patients receiving cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) in an Asian population. Data were collected at our institution between January 2010 and December 2017. The primary endpoints were all-cause mortality and heart transplantation. Of the 506 patients who were followed for 2 years, 104 reached the primary endpoint. The Kaplan-Meier event-free survival analysis, stratified according to the three scores, yielded significant results (log-rank test, all P  0.05). The ScREEN score yielded the best discriminatory power for the primary endpoints compared with the VALID-CRT and EAARN scores. ScREEN was the best predictor of all-cause mortality and heart transplantation. Risk scores based on different populations should be selected cautiously. Graphical Abstract.
