Recent research indicates that circular RNAs are essential for the development of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease. This study sought to examine the functional role and molecular mechanism of circDock6 in metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease.MethodsQuantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction was performed to determine <i>circDock6</i> expression patterns in liver tissues from high-fat diet- and standard diet-fed mice in vivo. Triglyceride detection, western blot analysis, and oil red O staining were performed to evaluate the regulatory effect of circDock6 on metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease in vitro.Results<i>CircDock6</i> was found to be markedly overexpressed in high-fat diet liver tissues compared with that in standard diet tissues. Moreover, knockdown of <i>circDock6</i> expression lowered triglyceride content and lipid droplet formation. Mechanistically, circDock6 acted as a molecular sponge for mmu-let-7g-5p, which regulated insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor expression and contributed to the progression of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease. <i>CircDock6</i> knockdown suppressed metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease progression by modulating insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor via mmu-let-7g-5p targeting.ConclusionOur study identified circDock6 as a novel regulator of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease pathogenesis through the mmu-let-7g-5p/insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor axis, indicating its potential as a therapeutic target for metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease intervention.</p>","PeriodicalId":16129,"journal":{"name":"Journal of International Medical Research","volume":"53 8","pages":"3000605251362984"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12344330/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144821591","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

After origins testing, the effects of microparticles on the proliferation and migration (crucial processes in intimal hyperplasia) of human coronary artery smooth muscle cells were determined.

Patients were randomly divided into training and testing sets in a 7:3 ratio. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression method was used to identify potential prognostic factors for sepsis, followed by multivariate logistic regression to construct a nomogram prediction model. The predictive performance of the developed model was evaluated via receiver operating characteristic curves, decision curve analysis, and calibration curves.ResultsThe predictive factors included the platelet distribution width to count ratio, mean platelet volume, N-terminal proB-type natriuretic peptide level, lactate level, respiratory tract infections, and diabetes. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve for the nomogram model in the training set was 0.907, with sensitivity and specificity values of 0.846 and 0.831, respectively. The calibration curve demonstrated that the prediction results were consistent with the actual findings.
