T2DM and cancer are common diseases that are frequently diagnosed in the same individual and the relationship of them appears to be complex. Epidemiologic data have shown T2DM is significantly associated with cancer, but potential biologic links between the two diseases are not fully understood. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are endogenously expressed RNAs consisting of 20-24 nucleotides that influence the expression of hundreds of genes that involved in numerous biological processes, including organ development, lipid metabolism, differentiation, apoptosis, and brain morphogenesis. MiRNAs are now shown to be stably expressed in serum,~ plasma,2 or blood.3'4 Moreover, the unique expression patterns of these circulating miRNAs are correlated with specific human diseases,5 including various types of cancer and diabetes. Therefore, miRNAs in serum or plasma are emerging as novel blood-based fingerprints for the detection of human cancers with diabetes, especially at an early stage. Accumulating studies have association between T2DM demonstrated a significant and tumorigenesis. One of the mechanisms underlying is insulin resistance, which contributes to the development of T2DM and cancer. High expression of miRNAs 103 and 107 (miR-103/107) leads to insulin resistance by down regulating caveolin-1, which is the direct target gene of miR-103/1076 and also a critical regulator of insulin receptor. Downregulation of caveolin-1 is susceptible to be tumorigenesis.7 Emerging evidence suggests the important role of miR-103/107 in the development and progression of breast and colorectal cancer patients,8'9 which of them are associated with diabetes, yet their roles in linking diabetes and cancer are only now beginning to be recognized. In this review, we discuss the current understanding of the molecular roles of miR-103/107 linking diabetes and cancer展开更多

METHODS:Twelve dogs were randomly divided into 2 groups(6 in each group).A postinjury bile duct stenosis model was established and radioactive 103 Pd( 103 palladium) or ordinary bile duct stents were implanted into the bile ducts.HE staining,RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry were used to detect the proliferation and apoptosis of bile duct smooth muscle cells in proliferative endomembrane and the expression of related caspase-3,Bcl-2 and Fas genes. RESULTS:The expression of caspase-3 and Fas genes in the bile duct tissues of dogs with radioactive stents was higher than that of dogs with ordinary stents.There was significant apoptosis of proliferative smooth muscle cells in the bile ducts.The expression of the Bcl-2 gene in the bile duct tissues of dogs with radioactive stents was lower than that in those with ordinary stents.There was significant apoptosis of proliferative smooth muscle cells in the dogs with low Bcl-2 gene expression. CONCLUSIONS:Radiation increases the activity of caspase-3 and Fas genes and is associated with apoptosis. The radioactive 103 Pd stent may facilitate apoptosis of proliferative smooth muscle cells in the bile ducts of dogs by activating these genes.The Bcl-2 gene expression level is correlated with the occurrence of apoptosis and the radiosusceptibility of cells.展开更多

This study concentrates on the Commission’s regulations of 1991 and 2007 tagged ICRP 60 and ICRP 103 respectively, and seeks to suggest the better guideline for determination of detriment to patient especially from abdominopelvic computed tomography. With mean totals of 375.0 mSv for the ICRP 60 and 341.3 mSv for the ICRP 103 obtained from abdominopelvic computed tomography involving 20 different patients, a T-test calculated value of 6.716 was obtained and compared with the value in the T-table at 95% confidence limit and 18 degrees of freedom to confirm whether there is a significant difference in both ICRP 60 and 103 recommendations in the determination of the effective dose. Finally, it is concluded that there is a significant difference in the ICRP 60 and ICRP 103 as fewer effective doses are obtained from the ICRP 103 recommendations and this difference verifies that the ICRP 103 is more suitable for the determination of the effective dose.展开更多
