Publication date: November 2019Source: Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy, Volume 119Author(s): Zhenxing Wei, Kunpeng Chang, Chongsheng FanAbstractCircular RNAs (circRNAs) have been reported to play critical roles in tumorigenesis. However, the roles of circRNAs in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) are still largely unknown. In our present study, we identified a novel circRNA hsa_circ_0042666, which was poorly expressed in LSCC. Low hsa_circ_0042666 expression was closely associated with advanced...

Key points Functional disorders (i.e., interstitial cystitis/painful bladder syndrome and irritable bowel syndrome) are associated with hyperexcitability of afferent nerves innervating the urinary tract and the bowel respectively. Various non‐5‐HT3 receptor mRNA transcripts are expressed in mouse urothelium and exert functional responses to 5‐HT. Whilst 5‐HT3 receptors were not detected in mouse urothelium, 5‐HT3 receptors expressed on bladder sensory neurons plays a role in bladder afferent...
