miR-317 regulates the proliferation and apoptosis of duck follicle granulosa cells by targeting VIPR1 by Li Li, Qingwu Xin, Linli Zhang, Zhongwei Miao, Zhiming Zhu, Xiaopan Liu, Qiannan Cai, Wenli Shi, Bangzhe Zhao, Changtao Liu, Zhengkui Zhou, Azheng Liang, Qinlou Huang, Nenzhu Zheng

“…More than 90 % of the cells were identified as duck follicle granulosa cells by immunofluorescence staining of FSHR and LHR. miR-317 expression was significantly higher in the miR-317 mimic-transfected group than in the miRNA-NC-transfected group (P < 0.01); similarly, miR-317 expression was significantly lower in the inhibitor-transfected group than in the miRNA inhibitor-transfected group (P < 0.01), indicating that miR-317 overexpression and interference vectors were successfully constructed and transfected into duck follicular granulosa cells. EdU staining revealed that the number of EdU-positive cells was significantly greater in the miR-317 mimic-transfected group than in the mimic-NC-transfected group (P < 0.05); after miR-317 silencing or inhibition, cell proliferation decreased, and the number of EdU-positive cells significantly decreased (P < 0.01). …”

“…Abstract In the current era of immune therapy, lenvatinib (LEN) continues to be vital for treating unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (uHCC) patients. This study investigates the importance of nutritional status in the prognosis of uHCC patients receiving LEN and evaluates a new prognostic scoring system that combines the geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI) and systemic inflammatory response. …”
