Background: MiRNAs belong to non-coding RNAs that are involved in cancer development. Acting as a mediator, they could regulate the expression level of numerous gens. However, the expression and function of miR-1299 in gastric cancer (GC) are not clear. Objective: To explore the role of miR-1299 in the process of GC. Methods: We detected the levels of miR-1299 in clinical samples of GC and investigated the role of miR-1299 in the regulation of the GC cells proliferation, apoptosis and metastasis. Luciferase reporter assay was employed to verify the target of miR-1299. Additionally, the proliferation, apoptosis and metastasis of AGS and SGC7901 cells were analyzed after the overexpression of miR-1299. Results: Our study showed the expression of miR-1299 was decreased in GC tissues and cell lines. It indicated that the cell proliferation, migration and invasion was inhibited, while the cell apoptosis was promoted by the over-expressed miR-1299. Also, we found that miR-1299 could directly target the 3'-untranslated region (3'UTR) of ARF6 genes. In addition, rescue assay demonstrated that miR-1299 overexpression promoted the cell apoptosis and inhibited cell growth, which could be attenuated by the overexpression of ARF6. Conclusions: These findings indicate that miR-1299 regulates cell progression in GC by targeting ARF6 genes, and suggest that miR-1299 may be a tumor suppressor in the GC progression.

Background: Gut microbiota is closely related to the occurrence and development of diabetes and affects the prognosis of diabetic complications, and the underlying mechanisms are only partially understood. We aimed to explore the possible link between the gut microbiota and vascular inflammation of diabetic mice.Methods: The <i>db/db</i> diabetic and wild-type (WT) mice were used in this study. We profiled gut microbiota and examined the and vascular function in both <i>db/db</i> group and WT group. Gut microbiota was analyzed by 16s rRNA sequencing. Vascular function was examined by ultrasonographic hemodynamics and histological staining. Clostridium butyricum (CB) was orally administered to diabetic mice by intragastric gavage every 2 days for 2 consecutive months. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) and expression of nuclear factor erythroid-derived 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) and heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) were detected by fluorescence microscopy. The mRNA expression of inflammatory cytokines was tested by quantitative polymerase chain reaction.Results: Compared with WT mice, CB abundance was significantly decreased in the gut of <i>db/db</i> mice, together with compromised vascular function and activated inflammation in the arterial tissue. Meanwhile, ROS in the vascular tissue of <i>db/db</i> mice was also significantly increased. Oral administration of CB restored the protective microbiota, and protected the vascular function in the <i>db/db</i> mice via activating the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway.Conclusion: This study identified the potential link between decreased CB abundance in gut microbiota and vascular inflammation in diabetes. Therapeutic delivery of CB by gut transplantation alleviates the vascular lesions of diabetes mellitus by activating the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway.

Background: Ginsenoside Rg3(S) and compound K (C-K) are pharmacologically active components of ginseng that promote human health and improve quality of life. The aim of this study was to produce Rg3(S) and C-K from ginseng extract using recombinant Lactococcus lactis. Methods: L. lactis subsp. cremoris NZ9000 (L. lactis NZ9000), which harbors ${\beta}$-glucosidase genes (BglPm and BglBX10) from Paenibacillus mucilaginosus and Flavobacterium johnsoniae, respectively, was reacted with ginseng extract (protopanaxadiol-type ginsenoside mixture). Results: Crude enzyme activity of BglBX10 values comprised 0.001 unit/mL and 0.003 unit/mL in uninduced and induced preparations, respectively. When whole cells of L. lactis harboring pNZBglBX10 were treated with ginseng extract, after permeabilization of cells by xylene, Rb1 and Rd were converted into Rg3(S) with a conversion yield of 61%. C-K was also produced by sequential reactions of the permeabilized cells harboring each pNZBgl and pNZBglBX10, resulting in a 70% maximum conversion yield. Conclusion: This study demonstrates that the lactic acid bacteria having specific ${\beta}$-glucosidase activity can be used to enhance the health benefits of Panax ginseng in either fermented foods or bioconversion processes.
