Segmental analysis of human hair reveals intra-annual variation in 25(OH)D3 concentrations in modern and archaeological individuals by Kate Britton, Orsolya Czére, Eléa Gutierrez, Linda M. Reynard, Eamon Laird, Gary Duncan, Baukje de Roos

“…For the remaining participants, no statistically-significant correlations were determined between mean hair 25(OH)D3 levels and self-reported data, including age, sex, BMI, vitamin D supplementation, frequency of oily fish consumption, and hours spent outside. For a subset of our cohort (n = 4) isotope analysis highlighted potential relationships between elevated δ 18O values (which can indicate season of hair growth) and 25(OH)D3 concentrations in some individuals, which may reflect seasonally-increased UVB exposure. …”

Study on the protective effect of naringin-regulated lncRNA GAS5 against mitochondrial apoptosis in osteoarthritic chondrocytes by LIN Qin, ZHU Yingkai, LIN Yanming, LAN Shujie, CHEN Changxing, FU Changlong

“…In vitro experiments, Lenti-lncRNA GAS5 was used to infect sodium nitroprusside (SNP)-induced chondrocytes, and the expression of lncRNA GAS5 was detected by fluorescence in situ hybridization in rat chondrocytes; after silencing of lncRNA GAS5, the expression level of lncRNA GAS5 in rat chondrocytes was detected by Real-time PCR; Western blot detected the protein levels of Caspase-3, Bax, MMP-13 and Cyt-C.Results① Pathological changes of cartilage tissue: The articular cartilage matrix in naringenin group was relatively complete, the surface was relatively smooth, the structure was clear, the tide line was more complete, the number of chondrocytes was more full, the arrangement was more orderly, the cartilage staining was more uniform, and the structure was significantly restored than that in the model group. ② lncRNA GAS5 expression in cartilage tissue: Compared with model group, lncRNA GAS5 expression in naringin group was decreased (<italic>P</italic>&lt;0.01). ③ Expression of proteins related to mitochondrial apoptosis in cartilage tissues: Compared with model group, the expressions of Caspase-3, Bax, MMP-13 and Cyt-C in cartilage tissues of naringin group were decreased (<italic>P</italic>&lt;0.01). ④ Fluorescence expression of lncRNA GAS5 in chondrocytes: FISH results showed that the fluorescence expression of lncRNA GAS5 was decreased after naringin treatment of SNP-induced chondrocytes (<italic>P</italic>&lt;0.01). ⑤ The protein expressions of Caspase-3, Bax, MMP-13 and Cyt-C in chondrocytes: Compared with the model group, the protein expressions of Caspase-3, Bax, MMP-13 and Cyt-C in naringin group were significantly decreased (<italic>P</italic>&lt; 0.01). …”
