Super-enhancers are important for controlling and defining the expression of cell-specific genes. With research on human disease biological processes, H3K27ac ChIP-seq datasets accumulating rapidly, creating urgent need to collect process these data comprehensively efficiently. More importantly, many studies showed that super-enhancer-associated single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) transcription factors (TFs) strongly influence processes. Here, we developed a comprehensive super-enhancer...
Super-enhancers (SEs) are cell-specific DNA cis-regulatory elements that can supervise the transcriptional regulation processes of downstream genes. SEdb 2.0 (http://www.licpathway.net/sedb) aims to provide a comprehensive SE resource and annotate their potential roles in gene transcriptions. Compared with 1.0, we have made following improvements: (i) Newly added mouse SEs expanded scale human SEs. contained 1 167 518 from 1739 H3K27ac chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP-seq)...
Abstract Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have a critical role in cancer initiation and progression, thus may mediate oncogenic or tumor suppressing effects, as well be new class of therapeutic targets. We performed high-throughput sequencing RNA (RNA-seq) to investigate the expression level lncRNAs protein-coding genes 30 esophageal samples, comprised 15 squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) samples their paired non-tumor tissues. further developed an integrative bioinformatics method, denoted...
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with sensitive epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations are successfully treated EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs); however, resistance to treatment inevitably occurs. Given lipid metabolic reprogramming is widely known as a hallmark of and intimately linked EGFR-stimulated growth. Activation signal pathway increased monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) metabolism key enzyme Stearoyl-CoA Desaturase 1 (SCD1) expression. However the...
Enhancers are a class of cis-regulatory elements that can increase gene transcription by forming loops in intergenic regions, introns and exons. Enhancers, as well their associated target genes, factors (TFs) bind to them, highly with human disease biological processes. Although some enhancer databases have been published, most only focus on enhancers identified high-throughput experimental techniques. Therefore, it is desirable construct comprehensive resource manually curated related...
Septic cardiomyopathy is one of the most severe and common complications in patients with sepsis poses a great threat to their prognosis. However, potential mechanisms effective therapeutic drugs need be explored. The control cardiac cell death by miRNAs has emerged as prominent area scientific interest diagnosis treatment heart disorders recent times. In present investigation, we discovered that overexpression miR-31-5p prevented LPS-induced damage H9C2 cells could inhibit BAP1 production...
In non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), estrogen (E2) significantly promotes NSCLC growth via receptor beta (ERβ). Discovery and elucidation of the mechanism underlying estrogen-promoted progression is critical for effective preventive interventions. IL6 has been demonstrated to be involved in development, metastasis several cancers overexpression associated with poor prognosis NSCLC. However, exact role played by progress remain unknown. Here, we evaluated expression biological effects cells...
Accessible chromatin is a highly informative structural feature for identifying regulatory elements, which provides large amount of information about transcriptional activity and gene mechanisms. Human ATAC-seq datasets are accumulating rapidly, prompting an urgent need to comprehensively collect effectively process these data. We developed comprehensive human accessibility database (ATACdb, http://www.licpathway.net/ATACdb), with the aim providing publicly available resources on data,...
A core transcription regulatory circuitry (CRC) is an interconnected self-regulatory that formed by a group of factors (TFs). These TFs collectively regulate gene expression binding not only to their own super enhancers (SEs) but also the SEs one another. For most human tissue/cell types, global view CRCs and has been generated. Here, we identified numerous using two identification methods detailed landscape driven in large cell/tissue samples. The comprehensive biological analyses,...
Abstract With the study of human diseases and biological processes increasing, a large number non-coding variants have been identified facilitated. The rapid accumulation genetic epigenomic information has resulted in an urgent need to collect process data explore regulation variants. Here, we developed comprehensive variation annotation database for (VARAdb, http://www.licpathway.net/VARAdb/), which specifically considers VARAdb provides 577,283,813 variations novel variants, prioritizes...

Competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) have received wide attention because they are a novel way to regulate genes through sharing microRNAs (miRNAs) that crucial for complex processes in many diseases. However, no systematic analysis of ceRNA mechanism cardiovascular disease (CVD) is known. To gain insights into the global properties ceRNAs multi-CVDs, we constructed view mRNA-related cross-talk eight major CVDs from ~2,800 samples. We found common features could be used uncover similarities...
Thoracoscopic mobilization of esophagus and laparoscopic stomach with cervical anastomosis is employed widely in minimally invasive esophagectomy (MIE) for esophageal carcinoma.
