Higher ratios of LDL-c/HDL-c, TG/HDL-c, and TC/HDL-c were all more likely associated with the decreased risks of T2DM prevalence with the ORs ranging from 0.45 to 0.62 in men (all P<0.05), but not in women. High LDL-c concentration was significantly associated with a lower T2DM prevalence in men. A gender difference of the associations between the lipid ratios and T2DM prevalence was observed for LDL-c/HDL-c and TC/HDL-c ratios, which might be validated in female T2DM prevalence in the future.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third major cause of cancer-related death worldwide, and fluorouracil (5-FU) is widely used in the treatment of CRC. However, acquired resistance to 5-FU has become an obstacle in the effective treatment of CRC. Adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-binding cassette sub-family G member 2 (ABCG2) has been found highly expressed in CRC patients with poor responsiveness to folinic acid/5-FU/irinotecan. However, the mechanisms of 5-FU resistance regulated by ABCG2 in CRC cells remain to be comprehensively understood. We aimed to explore the upstream mechanisms of ABCG2 involved in the regulation of chemoresistance in CRC cells. We investigated the potential mechanisms of 5-FU resistance in HCT116, RKO, RKO microRNA-21 (miR-21) knockout, and acquired 5-FU-resistant HCT116 (HCT116/FUR) cells. The biochemical and biological analyses were conducted using semiquantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), western blotting, transfe
