Ferroptosis, a new form of regulated cell death triggered by the iron-dependent peroxidation phospholipids, is associated with cellular metabolism, redox homeostasis, and various signaling pathways related to cancer. Aspirin widely used non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) has been reported show therapeutic benefit in cancers harboring oncogenic PIK3CA, which encodes catalytic p110α subunit phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K). In this study, we found that aspirin sensitized cancer cells...

Genesis of novel gene regulatory modules is largely responsible for morphological and functional evolution. De novo generation cis-regulatory elements (CREs) much rarer than genomic events that alter existing CREs such as transposition, promoter switching or co-option. Only one case de has been reported to date, in fish without involvement phenotype alteration. Yet, this event likely occurs other animals helps drive genetic/phenotypic variation. Using a porcine model spontaneous hearing loss...

Mounting evidence suggests that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play important roles in the regulation of gene expression by acting as competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA). However, regulatory mechanisms lncRNA ceRNA gastric cancer (GC) are not fully understood. Here, we first constructed a dysregulated lncRNA-associated network integrating analysis profiles lncRNAs, microRNAs (miRNAs), and messenger (mRNAs). Then, determined three lncRNAs (RP5-1120P11, DLEU2, DDX11-AS1) hub which associated...
