Furthermore, the underlying molecular mechanisms of BBR also will be explored systematically. Rats were infected by H. pylori. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and H. pylori were applied to induce M1 Mφs polarization, interleukin 4 (IL-4) and BBR were used to induce M2 Mφs polarization. Supernatants of polarized Mφs were collected as conditioned media (CM) for investigating the impact of Mφs and its' secreted cytokine on gastric epithelial cells (GES-1). Cell viability, morphology, proliferation, and quantitative analysis of RAW 264.7 cells and GES-1 cells were detected by high-content screening (HCS) imaging assay. To further investigate the potential mechanisms of BBR, relative mRNA, immunohistochemistry and protein expression were measured. BBR inhibited M1-polarized Mφs, which was induced by H. pylori and LPS, and advocated M2-polarized Mφs. The M1- BBR tightly related to M1-polarized Mφs inhibition and M2-polarized Mφs promotion. BBR activates IL-4-STAT6 signaling pathway, which is crucial exceedingly in M2 Mφs activation and anti-inflammatory response. Based on the theory that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) sponge microRNAs (miRNAs) to engage in cervical cancer development, this work was set out to investigate the possible role of lncRNA taurine upregulated gene 1 (TUG1) and miR-381-3p in the development of cervical cancer. TUG1, miR-381-3p and murine double minute 2 (MDM2) expression were measured in cervical cancer tissues and cells. The nexus between TUG1 and clinicopathological features of cervical cancer was discussed. The biological functions of TUG1, miR-381-3p and MDM2 on cervical cancer cell process were interpreted via gain- and loss-of-function experiments. Also, tumor xenograft in nude mice was conducted in vivo. The interactions
