Abstract N6-Methyladenosine (m6A) is the most prevalent internal modification of mammalian mRNAs. Recent studies have shown that m6A methyltransferases METTL3 and METTL14 play important roles in urothelial bladder carcinoma (BLCA). To provide a more comprehensive understanding regulatory landscape cancer, we investigated role YTHDF2, crucial reader, BLCA. YTHDF2 was frequently upregulated at both RNA protein level Functionally, promoted proliferation tumor growth BLCA cells vitro vivo,...

Abstract Photodynamic therapy (PDT) by insertion of an optical fiber into the bladder cavity has been applied in clinic for noninvasive treatment tumors. To avoid systemic phototoxicity, intravesical instillation a photosensitizer may be ideal approach PDT cancer, comparison to conventional intravenous injection. However, instillation‐based cancer remains less effective due poor urothelial uptake photosensitizer, as well tumor hypoxia‐associated resistance. Herein, it is uncovered that...

Abstract Bladder cancer is one of the most common and highly vascularized cancers. To better understand its genomic structure underlying etiology, we conduct whole-genome targeted sequencing in urothelial bladder carcinomas (UBCs, type cancer). Recurrent mutations noncoding regions affecting gene regulatory elements structural variations (SVs) leading to disruptions are prevalent. Notably, find recurrent ADGRG6 enhancer FRS2 duplications which associated with higher protein expression tumor...

The genome sequence, genetic characterization and nblA gene function of Microcystis aeruginosa myovirus isolated from Lake Dianchi in China (MaMV-DC) have been analysed. DNA is 169 223 bp long, with 170 predicted protein-coding genes ( 001L – 170L ) a tRNA gene. About one-sixth these homologues the host cyanobacteria M. . carries homologous to , which encodes protein involved degradation cyanobacterial phycobilisome. Its expression during MaMV-DC infection was confirmed by reverse...

Bladder cancer is one of the most common malignancy in urinary tract with high recurrence and drug resistance clinics. Alternative treatments from existing drugs might be a promising strategy. Nitazoxanide (NTZ), an FDA-approved antiprotozoal drug, has got increasingly noticed because its favorable safety profile antitumor potential, yet effects bladder underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. Herein, we find that NTZ induces mitochondrial damage mitophagy initiation through...

Copy number variation (CNV) is a type of structural variation, which gain or loss event with abnormal changes in copy number. Methods to predict the pathogenicity CNVs are required realize relationship between these variants and clinical phenotypes. ClassifyCNV, X-CNV, StrVCTVRE, etc. have been trained CNVs, but few studies reported based on deleterious significance features.From single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), gene region dimensions, we collected 79 informative features that...
