In this study, we aimed to decipher the impact of enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) in psoriasis as well as the underlying mechanism.

A mouse model of psoriasis was developed by means of imiquimod induction, with the expression of EZH2, microRNA-125a-5p (miR-125a-5p), and SFMBT1 determined. The role of EZH2, miR-125a-5p, and SFMBT1 in…[Read more]

RATIONALE Even though Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a disease with high morbidity and mortality and no cure, palliative care is rarely implemented, leading to high symptom burden and unmet care needs. In 2012 we implemented a Multidisciplinary Collaborative (MDC) care model linking clinic and community multidisciplinary teams to provide…[Read more]

Fusarium-derived mycotoxin deoxynivalenol (DON) usually induces diarrhea, vomiting and gastrointestinal inflammation. We studied the cytotoxic effect of DON on porcine small intestinal epithelium using the intestinal porcine epithelial cell line IPEC-J2. We screened out differentially expressed genes (DEGs) using RNA-seq and identified 320…[Read more]
