Abstract TP53 is a classic tumor suppressor, but its role in kidney cancer remains unclear. In our study, we tried to explain the of p53 through p53-related enhancer RNA pathway. Functional experiments were used explore whether P53-bound regions 2 (p53BER2) has cell cycle and senescence response TP53-wild type (WT) renal cells vitro or vivo. RNA-sequencing was identify potential target p53BER2. The results showed that expression level P53BER2 downregulated tissues lines, further...

Methods The expression level was determined by RT-qPCR total 106 patients with urothelial different cell (BCC) lines. Bladder cells (BCSCs)...
Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have multiple functions in the cancer immunity response and tumor microenvironment.To investigate immune-related lncRNA (IRlncRNA) signature for predicting prognosis immunotherapeutic bladder (BLCA), we extracted BLCA data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database.Finally, a total of 405 cases were enrolled 8 prognostic IRlncRNAs (MIR181A2HG, AC114730.3,LINC00892, PTPRD-AS1, LINC01013, MRPL23-AS1, LINC01395, AC002454.1)were identified training set.Risk scores...
The progression of clear cell renal carcinoma (ccRCC) remains a major challenge in clinical practice, and elucidation the molecular drivers malignancy is critical for development effective therapeutic targets.Recent studies have demonstrated that N 6 -methyladenosine (m A) most abundant modification eukaryotic mRNA plays key role tumorigenesis progression.However, biological roles underlying mechanisms m A-mediated autophagy cancers especially ccRCC remain poorly elucidated.m A dot blot...
The management of advanced clear cell renal carcinoma (ccRCC) remains a major challenge in clinical practice, and the construction more reliable prognostic prediction models further elucidation key molecular mechanisms tumor progression are topics urgent need in-depth investigation.We used CIBERSORT to estimate proportion 22 tumor-infiltrating immune types TCGA-KIRC cohort. Weighted gene co-expression network analysis, least absolute shrinkage selection operator regression analysis were...
BackgroundCholesteryl ester (CE) accumulation in intracellular lipid droplets (LDs) is an essential signature of clear cell renal carcinoma (ccRCC), but its molecular mechanism and pathological significance remain elusive.MethodsEnabled by the label-free Raman spectromicroscopy, which integrated stimulated scattering microscopy with confocal spectroscopy on same platform, we quantitatively analyzed LD distribution composition at single level intact ccRCC tissue specimens situ without any...
Lysosomes are acidic organelles that have a crucial role in degrading intracellular macromolecules and during the final stage of autophagy. Tetrandrine (Tet), bisbenzylisoquinoline alkaloid, was reported as an autophagy activator. Here, contrast with previous studies, we show Tet is potent lysosomal deacidification agent able to block autophagic flux degradation stage. Single-agent induces significant apoptosis both vitro xenograft models. In presence Tet, preceded by robust accumulation...
Metastatic bladder cancer (BLCA) is a lethal disease with an unmet need for study. Transgelin (TAGLN) actin-binding protein that affects the dynamics of actin cytoskeleton indicating its robust potential as metastasis initiator. Here, we sought to explore expression pattern TAGLN and elucidate specific functioning mechanisms in BLCA.A comprehensive assessment BLCA was performed three cohorts total 847 patients. The effects on were further determined using clinical genomic analyses guided...
To explore the prognostic significance of preoperative nutritional index (PNI) in bladder cancer after radical cystectomy and compare ability inflammation-based indices. We retrospectively analyzed data for 516 patients with who underwent our institution between 2006 to 2012. Clinicopathologic characteristics indices (PNI, neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio [NLR], platelet/lymphocyte [PLR], lymphocyte/monocyte [LMR]) were evaluated by pre-treatment measurements. Overall survival (OS)...
N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most prevalent RNA modification. While role of m6A in prostate cancer remains unknown. We aim to measure effects methylation regulatory genes during development and progression cancer.
Prostate cancer (PCa) is a complex disease. An ongoing accumulation of mutations results in increased genetic diversity, with the tumor acquiring distinct subclones. However, non-genetic intra-tumoral heterogeneity, cellular differentiation state and interplay between subclonal evolution transcriptional heterogeneity are poorly understood. Here, authors perform single-cell RNA sequencing from 14 untreated PCa patients. They create an extensive cell atlas patients mapped developmental states...
Late-onset hypogonadism (LOH) is closely related to secondary androgen deficiency in aged males, but the mechanism remains unclear.In this study, we found that reduced testosterone production rat Leydig cells associated with decreased autophagic activity.Primary and TM3 mouse cell line were used study effect of on production.In from young rats, treatment wortmannin, an autophagy inhibitor, inhibited luteinising hormone (LH)-stimulated steroidogenic acute regulatory (StAR) protein expression...
5-Hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) is converted from 5-methylcytosine (5mC) by a group of enzymes termed ten-eleven translocation (TET) family dioxygenases. The loss 5hmC has been identified as hallmark most types cancer and related to tumorigenesis progression. However, the role in bladder seldom investigated. Vitamin C was recently reported induce generation acting cofactor for TET In this study, we explored therapeutic efficacy vitamin increasing pattern. decreased samples patient overall...
