RETRACTED: Long Noncoding RNA SNHG1 Activates Autophagy and Promotes Cell Invasion in Bladder Cancer by Changcheng Guo, Xin Li, Jinbo Xie, Dan Liu, Jiang Geng, Lin Ye, Yang Yan, Xudong Yao, Ming Luo

“…Further analysis of the mechanism of action of SNHG1 showed that it functions as a sponge of miRNA-493 in bladder cancer. miRNA-493 binds on the 3’ -UTR of ATG14 mRNA thus affecting ATG14 protein expression, which is implicated in autophagy. …”

Effects of robot-assisted task-oriented upper limb motor training on neuroplasticity in stroke patients with different degrees of motor dysfunction: A neuroimaging motor evaluation... by Hui Xie, Hui Xie, Hui Xie, Xin Li, Wenhao Huang, Jiahui Yin, Cailing Luo, Zengyong Li, Zulin Dou

“…Moreover, the WPCO value of motor training between contralesional DLPFC and ipsilesional SFC, bilateral SFC, contralesional, S1, and ipsilesional M1 showed a significant decrease compared with the resting state in the mild group.ConclusionRobot-assisted task-oriented UL motor training could modify the neuroplasticity of SFC and contribute to control movements and continuous learning motor regularity for patients. fNIRS could provide a variety of real-time sensitive neural evaluation indicators for the robot, which was beneficial to formulating more reasonable and effective personalized prescriptions during motor training.…”
