Materials and methods: We examined 106 patients diagnosed with NAFLD for the first time: 31 patients with liver steatosis (LS), 64 patients with weak (WA), moderate (MA) and high (HA) NASH activity and 11 patients at the stage of liver cirrhosis (LC). The control group consisted of 30 healthy donors. The mRNA level of the TUG1, DANCR, MALAT1, GAS5 genes in PBL was determined by RT-PCR. Results: A higher level of expression of the TUG1 gene was registered in the PBL of patients with NASH-WA compared to LS, and a tendency was revealed to increase the level of TUG1 mRNA in the PBL with increasing NASH activity, which indicates the possibility of using the level of TUG1 expression in the PBL as a minimally invasive diagnostic (to distinguish between LS and NASH-WA) and a prognostic marker (with the progression of NAFLD). Analysis of the expression level of lncRNA MALAT1 showed no significant differences between all studied groups. Results were obtained indicating complex dynamics of the GAS5 expression level: the level of transcripts increases during the formation of liver steatosis and then decreases during the transition to NASH. It was shown that the level of DANCR expression in the PBL of patients with NASH-WA is significantly lower than in patients with liver steatosis and NASH-MA. Conclusion: New data were obtained on the expression level of the MALAT1, GAS5, DANCR, TUG1 lncRNAs in the PBL of patients with NAFLD, indicating the possibility of using the level of TUG1 expression in the PBL as a minimally invasive diagnostic and prognostic marker in NAFLD. It has also been shown that the level of DANCR mRNA in PBL may have some diagnostic value in distinguishing between LS and NASH-WA.","PeriodicalId":12262,"journal":{"name":"Experimental and Clinical Gastroenterology","volume":"13 18","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140241180","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In recent decades, there has been a significant increase in patients with CP; the incidence in children is estimated at 2 cases per 100,000 people. According to the literature, pancreatic cancer in the outcome of chronic pancreatitis in childhood is 6.2%. Mortality rates for CP vary in different studies: 15-20% of children with CP die from complications and secondary disorders. The purpose of the study is to study current problems and determine the prospects for the treatment of chronic pancreatitis in children based on a review of modern literature. Materials and methods. As part of the preparation, a systematic review of the world and domestic literature on the surgical treatment of chronic pancreatitis in children was carried out. Results. A literature search confirmed the lack of consensus regarding the surgical treatment of CP in children. The small number of observations does not allow us to analyze the long-term results of surgical treatment of children with CP. Patients with hereditary pancreatitis pose a particular challenge; treatment algorithms for this group of patients are not described in the literature. Also in the literature there are isolated descriptions of complications with CP in children; there are no reliable results of the effectiveness of surgical intervention for endocrine and exocrine insufficiency in children. It is necessary to conduct scientific and practical research to develop indications for surgical treatment of children with CP and to verify specific complications.","PeriodicalId":12262,"journal":{"name":"Experimental and Clinical Gastroenterology","volume":"20 52","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140240748","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Results. After reviewing 693 scientific papers for duplication and inconsistency, 38 sources were selected. Conclusions. The analysis of scientific data revealed that despite the understanding of the pathogenetic causes of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and the complexity of this disease, liver biopsy still remains the gold standard for assessing liver health. In this regard, there is a need to introduce accessible non-imaging tools and accurate biomarkers, with the help of which it will be possible not only to make an adequate diagnosis, but also to analyze new treatments for NAFLD in clinical trials.","PeriodicalId":12262,"journal":{"name":"Experimental and Clinical Gastroenterology","volume":"124 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140237699","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Material and methods. An open-label cross-sectional study was performed including 175 participants aged 18 to 44 years (mean age 30.06 ± 6.15 years). Group 1 included 100 patients with IBS aged 18 to 44 years (mean age 30.63 ± 6.37 years, BMI 25.88 ± 6.28 kg/m2). In group 1, subgroup 1A included 50 people with IBS associated with overweight or obesity. Subgroup 1B included 50 IBS patients with normal weight. Group 2 included 75 people who did not suffer from IBS, aged from 19 to 43 years (mean age 29.31 ± 5.81 years, BMI 27.80 ± 6.20 kg/m2). Subgroup 2A included 50 participants who did not suffer from IBS and were overweight or obese. Subgroup 2B included 25 apparently healthy participants. The presence and severity of IBS symptoms were assessed using a 10-point scale. The severity of gastrointestinal symptoms, the presence of anxiety and depression, the level of specific anxiety, quality of life and eating habits were assessed using verified questionnaires. All participants underwent a study of the levels of leptin and adiponectin in the blood serum and zonulin in the feces. Results. The characteristic clinical stigmas in patients suffering from IBS associated with overweight and obesity are described: IBS with a predominance of constipation, severe course of the disease, high incidence of signs of depressive and anxiety disorders, special eating habits characterized by the predominance of flour, sweet, fatty and salty foods in the diet food, severe disturbances in the permeability of the intestinal epithelial barrier. High concentrations of leptin and low levels of adiponectin in the blood serum of such patients may play a significant role in the formation of IBS symptoms. Conclusion.

Materials and Methods: Cell cycle analysis, gene expression level, and cell proliferation assay are implanted in this study as investigational methods. Two-tailed student's t test is used to compare between the studied groups. Results: Cell cycle analysis for the transformed cell lines revealed increasing in G0/G1 phase and entering the cells the cell cycle arrest (quiescence) after knocking down ITGA2 expression. On the other hand, knocking down the ITGA2 effect, the mesenchymal to epithelial transition and the migration possibility of the cell lines by inhibiting the expression of metastatic marker vimentin. Furthermore, ITGA2 can manipulate the tumor microenvironment by downregulating extracellular matrix proteins (ECM-proteins) LAMB3, and LAMC2.
