Posttranscriptional modification of tumor-associated factors plays a pivotal role in breast cancer progression. However, the underlying mechanism remains unknown. M6A modifications cells are dynamic and reversible have been found to impact tumor initiation progression through various mechanisms. In this study, we explored regulatory cell proliferation metabolism m6A methylation Hippo pathway. METHODS: A combination MeRIP-seq, RNA-seq metabolomics-seq was utilized reveal map tissues cells. We...
MicroRNA-381 (miR-381) has been reported to play suppressive or promoting roles in different malignancies. However, the expression level, biological function, and underlying mechanisms of miR-381 gastric cancer remain poorly understood. Our previous study indicated that transmembrane protein 16A (TMEM16A) contributed migration invasion predicted poor prognosis. In this study, we found inhibited metastasis through targeting TMEM16A expression. MiR-381 was analyzed using bioinformatic software...
Therapeutic development is critical for preventing and treating continual MERS-CoV infections in humans camels. Because of their small size, nanobodies (Nbs) have advantages as antiviral therapeutics (e.g., high expression yield robustness storage transportation) also potential limitations low antigen-binding affinity fast renal clearance). Here, we developed novel Nbs that specifically target the receptor-binding domain (RBD) spike protein. They bind to a conserved site on RBD with...
Abstract The metabolic switch from oxidative phosphorylation to glycolysis is required for tumorigenesis in order provide cancer cells with energy and substrates of biosynthesis. Therefore, it important elucidate mechanisms controlling the switch. MTR4 a RNA helicase associated nuclear exosome that plays key roles processing surveillance. We demonstrate frequently overexpressed hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) an independent diagnostic marker predicting poor prognosis HCC patients. drives...
Abstract Background The transition of the myometrium from a quiescent to contractile state during labour is known involve inflammation, which characterized by infiltration immune cells and secretion cytokines. However, specific cellular mechanisms underlying inflammation in human parturition are not yet fully understood. Methods Through analysis transcriptomics, proteomics, cytokine arrays, was revealed. By performing single‐cell RNA sequencing (scRNA‐seq) spatiotemporal transcriptomic (ST)...
Objectives Oral and maxillofacial diseases affect approximately 3.5 billion people worldwide. With the continuous advancement of Artificial Intelligence technologies, particularly application generative pre-trained transformers like ChatGPT-4, there is potential to enhance public awareness prevention early detection these diseases. This study evaluated performance ChatGPT-4 in addressing oral disease questions using standard approaches Chain Thought (CoT) method, aiming gain a deeper...
One of the malignant transformation hallmarks is metabolism reprogramming, which plays a critical role in biosynthetic needs unchecked proliferation, abrogating cell death programs, and immunologic escape. However, mechanism metabolic switch not fully understood. Here, we found that S-nitrosoproteomic profile endogenous nitrogen oxide ovarian cancer cells targeted multiple components processes. Phosphofructokinase (PFKM), one most important regulatory enzymes glycolysis, was S-nitrosylated...
Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) depend on glycolysis for energy and substrates biosynthesis.To understand the mechanisms governing metabolism of hESCs, we investigated transcriptional regulation glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1, SLC2A1), a key glycolytic gene to maintain pluripotency.By combining genome-wide data binding sites core pluripotency factors (SOX2, OCT4, NANOG, denoted SON), chromosomal interaction histone modification in identified potential enhancer GLUT1 (GE) element.GE...
Abstract Background Phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate-binding protein GOLPH3L is overexpressed in human ductal carcinoma of the breast, and its expression levels correlate with prognosis breast cancer patients. However, roles tumorigenesis remain unclear. Methods We assessed biological function by combining bioinformatic prediction, metabolomics analysis RNA-seq to determine GOLPH3L-related pathways involved tumorigenesis. Dual-luciferase reporter assay coimmunoprecipitation (Co-IP) were used...
Abstract Background Placenta accreta spectrum disorders (PAS) are a severe complication characterized by abnormal trophoblast invasion into the myometrium. The underlying mechanisms of PAS involve complex interplay various cell types and molecular pathways. Despite its significance, both characteristics intricate this condition remain poorly understood. Methods Spatial transcriptomics (ST) single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq), were performed on tissue samples from four patients, including...
During labor, a variety of coordinated physiological and biochemical events cause the myometrium to transition from quiescent contractile state; molecular mechanisms responsible for this transition, however, remain unclear. To better understand at level, global transcriptome proteome human myometrial samples in labor those not were investigated through RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) quantitative liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) via data-independent acquisition (DIA)...
To the Editor: Spontaneous preterm labor (PTL) causes infant morbidity and mortality. Regular uterine contractions were common characteristics in spontaneous at term or PTL. Thus, effective decrease suppression of myometrial contraction could prevent delivery. We discovered that microRNA-206 (miR-206) was a myometrium contraction-associated miRNA based on transcriptome data human laboring indicated miR-206 suppressed contractility by targeting junction protein alpha 1 (GJA1) would be new...
The E3 ligase HERC4 is overexpressed in human breast cancer and its expression levels correlated with the prognosis of patients. However, roles mammary tumorigenesis remain unclear.
