Abstract Background Nuclear Yes1‐associated transcriptional regulator (YAP1) promotes tumor progression. However, the function of cytoplasmic YAP1 in breast cancer cells and its impact on survival patients remain unclear. Our research aimed to explore biological possibility as a predictive marker survival.

Aminoglycosides are commonly used for the treatment of life-threatening bacterial infections, however, aminoglycosides may cause irreversible hearing loss with a long-term clinical therapy. The mechanism and prevention ototoxicity still limited although amounts studies explored widely. Specifically, advancements in programmed cell death (PCD) provide more new perspectives. This review summarizes general signal pathways death, including apoptosis, autophagy, ferroptosis, as well mechanisms aminoglycoside-induced ototoxicity. Additionally, novel interventions, especially gene therapy strategies, also investigated or prospective applications.

Better understanding the mechanism of cisplatin-induced ototoxicity is great significance for clinical prevention and treatment cisplatin-related hearing loss. However, inflammatory response in cochlear stria vascularis marginal cell (MC) damage have not been fully clarified. In this study, a stable model MC was established vitro, results PCR Western blotting showed increased expressions NLRP3, Caspase-1, IL-1β, GSDMD MCs. Incomplete membranes including many small pores appearing on membrane were also observed under transmission electron microscopy scanning microscopy. addition, downregulation NLRP3 by interfering RNA can alleviate pyroptosis, reducing expression level TXNIP possesses inhibition effect inflammasome activation its mediated pyroptosis. Taken together, our suggest that may mediate pyroptosis vascularis, possible upstream regulator, which be promising therapeutic target alleviating

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic nonspecific inflammatory disease with complex causes. The main pathological changes were intestinal mucosal injury. Leucine-rich repeat-containing G protein coupled receptor 5 (LGR5)-labeled small intestine stem cells (ISCs) located at the bottom of recess and inlaid among Paneth cells. LGR5+ ISCs are active proliferative adult cells, their self-renewal, proliferation differentiation disorders closely related to occurrence diseases. Notch signaling pathway Wnt/β-catenin important regulators LGR5-positive together maintain function ISCs. More importantly, surviving after injury accelerate division, restore number multiply differentiate into mature epithelial repair damaged mucosa. Therefore, in-depth study multiple pathways transplantation may become new target for treatment UC.

Pathological changes such as decreased potential in cochlea, active cochlear amplification disorders, developmental disorders and macrophage activation have been observed various transgenic mouse models. In past, researchers generally believed that pathological mechanisms underlying -related hearing comprised a K + circulation defect abnormal ATP-Ca 2+ signals. However, recent studies shown rarely associated with process loss, while oxidative stress play an important, even critical, role occurrence loss. Nevertheless, these research has not systematically summarized. this review, we summarize including aspects circulation, organ Corti, nutrition delivery, Clarifying mechanism can help develop new prevention treatment strategies.
