Abstract

Oridonin, an ingredient used in traditional Chinese medicine, has been demonstrated to play an important role in antitumour effects, but the mechanism underlying its antitumour properties is still not clear. To verify the anti-cancer effects of oridonin via a miRNA-dependent mechanism, comprehensive miRNA expression profiling of oridonin-treated BxPC-3 human pancreatic cancer cells was performed using a miRNA microarray assay based on Sanger miR-Base Release 20, followed by a validation using real-time PCR. MicroRNA target prediction and Gene Ontology and KEGG pathway analysis were performed to investigate possible pathways involved. The results showed that 105 miRNAs were significantly differentially expressed (signal reading >500, p ≤ 0.01, |Log2-value| ≥1) in oridonin-treated BxPC-3 human pancreatic cancer cells. Our data indicates that oridonin inhibits BxPC-3 cells probably through regulating the expression of miRNAs. Interruption of miRNA profiling may provide new therapeutic methods for the clinical treatment of pancreatic cancer.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 30 October 2015.
All research outputs
#18,410,971
of 22,805,349 outputs
Outputs from BMC Complementary Medicine and Therapies
#2,510
of 3,630 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#193,000
of 264,354 outputs
Outputs of similar age from BMC Complementary Medicine and Therapies
#54
of 78 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,805,349 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 11th percentile – i.e., 11% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 3,630 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 8.5. This one is in the 18th percentile – i.e., 18% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 264,354 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 15th percentile – i.e., 15% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 78 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 19th percentile – i.e., 19% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
