hsa_circ_0020378 regulating miR-339-3p/COL1A1 promotes osteosarcoma progression
This study aimed to investigate a novel circRNA, hsa_circ_0020378 (circ_0020378), and elucidate its functions and underlying mechanisms during osteosarcoma progression. The expression levels of circ_0020378, miR-339-3p, and COL1A1 in osteosarcoma cells and tissues were determined using RT-qPCR or Western blotting. CCK8, transwell migration, colony formation, and xenograft experiments were performed to assess the malignancy of osteosarcoma cells. Luciferase and RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) experiments were employed to validate the interactions of miR-339-3p with circ_0020378 and COL1A1 3'UTR. Osteosarcoma cells and tissues...

Higher PD-1/Tim-3 expression on IFN- γ+ T cells is associated with poor prognosis in patients with acute myeloid leukemia
In this study, we first characterized the percentage of PD-1+ and T cell immunoglobulin mucin-domain-containing-3 (Tim-3) +IFN-γ+ T cells in peripheral blood (PB) in AML compared with healthy individuals (HIs) by flow cytometry and further discussed the possibility of the reversal of T cell exhaustion to restore the secretion capacity of cytokines in T cells in AML based on blockade of PD-1 or Tim-3 (anti-PD-1 and anti-Tim-3 antibody) in vitro using a cytokine protein chip. A significantly increased percentage of PD-1+, Tim-3+, and PD-1+Tim-3+ IFN-γ+ T cells was observed in PB from patients with AML in comparison with HI...

Clinical application of molecular residual disease detection by circulation tumor DNA in solid cancers and a comparison of technologies: review article
Cancer Biol Ther. 2023 Dec 31;24(1):2274123. doi: 10.1080/15384047.2023.2274123. Epub 2023 Nov 13.ABSTRACTMolecular residual disease (MRD), detected by circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) can be involved in the entire process of solid tumor management, including recurrence prediction, efficacy evaluation, and risk stratification. Currently, the detection technologies are divided into two main categories, as follows: tumor-agnostic and tumor informed. Tumor-informed assay obtains mutation information by sequencing tumor tissue samples before blood MRD monitoring, followed by formulation of a personalized MRD panel. Tumor-agnostic...

NAT10 promotes the tumorigenesis and progression of laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma through ac4C modification of FOXM1 mRNA
This study aimed to make an investigation into the role of NAT10-mediated ac4C modification in the malignant processes of LSCC cells. The NAT10 expression in LSCC tissues and cells was detected RT-qPCR and western blot. The ac4C dot blot was performed to detect ac4C level. Besides, the cell viability, migration, and invasion abilities were detected by CCK-8 and transwell assays. AcRIP-qPCR was performed to measure the abundance of ac4C on FOXM1 mRNA. RIP and Luciferase reporter assays were performed to demonstrate the interaction between NAT10 and FOXM1. Finally, the xenograft model was established to explore the role of N...

MiR-597-5p inhibits carcinogenesis and macrophage recruitment in colitis-related colorectal cancer via reducing the expression of CXCL5
Cancer Biol Ther. 2023 Dec 31;24(1):2274122. doi: 10.1080/15384047.2023.2274122. Epub 2023 Nov 9.ABSTRACTDespite being the subject of multiple cancer studies, nothing is known about miR-597-5p's role in colitis-associated colorectal cancer (CAC). We intend to explore how miR-597-5p influences the growth and development of CAC. In order to construct a CAC model, mice were stimulated with azoxymethane (AOM)/dextran sulfate sodium (DSS). The in situ hybridization (ISH) and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used for the detection of miR-597-5p expression. The protein expression of CXCL5 was determi...
