Principles of effective out-patient diagnostics of diffuse liver diseases by Komova A. G., M. V. Mayevskaya, V. T. Ivashkin

“…Abnormal liver functional tests were revealed in 30,6% of industrial city inhabitants — in 1461 of 4768 cases (232 patients were excluded from the study due to partial data loss), significantly more frequently in men in comparison to women, i.e. 49,7 and 25,5% respectively (p&lt;0,001). Prevalence of diffuse liver diseases in the studied sample (n=4768) was following: non-alcoholic fatty liver disease —7,4% (n=352), alcohol-induced liver disease — 6,9% (n=329), hepatitis C — 6,7% (n=322), hepatitis B — 1,9% (n=91), drug-induced liver disease — 0,82% (n=39), cholestatic liver diseases — 0,69 % (n=33), autoimmune hepatitis — 0,78% (n=37), others — 5,4% (n=258). …”

LncRNA GAS5 inhibits glioma progression through miR-135b-5p/APC axis by ZHANG Jidong, WANG Yutao, JI Jianwen

“…Further studies suggested that the effect of GAS5 on biological function in glioma cells was through targeting miR-135b-5p, and overexpression of APC reversed the promoting effect of miR-135b-5p on glioma cells (P<0.01). Western blotting displayed that enhancing miR-135b-5p expression inhibited the expression of APC (P<0.001), and GAS5 upregulated the expression of APC by targeting miR-135b-5p (P<0.01). …”
