Renal fibrosis is a common feature in various chronic kidney diseases (CKD). Tubular cell damage main characterization which results from dysregulated fatty acid oxidation (FAO) and lipid accumulation. Cannabinoid Receptor 2 (CB2) contributes to renal fibrosis, however, its role FAO dysregulation tubular cells not clarified. In this study, we found CB2 plays detrimental metabolism cells.

Abstract As the world's first oral nuclear export inhibitor, selinexor is increasingly being used in clinical applications for malignant tumors. However, there no extensive exploration on selinexor's adverse events (ADEs), necessitating a real-word assessment of its medication safety. FAERS data (July 2019–June 2023) were searched ADE reports across all indications. Use system organ class (SOC) and preferred terms (PT) from medical dictionary regulatory activities (MedDRA) to describe,...

Background OASL (Oligoadenylate Synthetase-Like), an interferon-induced protein in the OAS family, plays a significant role anti-viral response. Studies have demonstrated its association with prognosis of certain tumors. However, mechanism through which affects tumors is unclear. A systemic pan-cancer study needs to be illustrated. Methods Analysis expression across 33 was conducted utilizing TCGA, GTEx and CPTAC databases. COX Log-Rank regressions were employed calculate prognosis. We...

Background: Elevated estrogen has been found to contribute the pathological development of endometrial cancer (EC), potentially through alterations in tumor inflammatory immune microenvironment. However, exact mechanisms underlying this process remain unclear. Methods: Bioinformatics was used identify differentially expressed genes, analyze pathway enrichment, and assess their correlation with cell infiltration. Ishikawa cells ECC-1 were stimulated estradiol (E2) or selective receptor...

Compared with the traditional gene expression techniques of quantitative analysis, RT-qPCR is most widely used because its low cost, time-saving, and accuracy. It essential to introduce suitable internal reference genes as corrections in experiments reduce RNA quality reverse transcription efficiency different samples. In our study, we chose candidate alfalfa from transcriptome sequence datasets (162 RNA-seq sequencing data) through comparative analysis. Finally, 10 were selected. These...

Dysregulation of extracellular matrix (ECM) homeostasis plays a pivotal role in the accelerated degradation cartilage, presenting notable challenge for effective osteoarthritis (OA) treatment and cartilage regeneration. In this study, we introduced an injectable hydrogel based on streamlined-zinc oxide (ZnO), which is responsive to metallopeptidase (MMP), delivery miR-17-5p. This approach aimed address damage by regulating ECM homeostasis. The ZnO/miR-17-5p composite functions releasing zinc...

N6-methyladenosine (m6A) methylation of RNA by the methyltransferase complex (MTC), with core components including METTL3-METTL14 heterodimers and Wilms' tumor 1-associated protein (WTAP), contributes to breast tumorigenesis, but underlying regulatory mechanisms remain elusive. Here, we identify a novel cleaved form METTL3a (residues 239-580 METTL3). We find that is required for METTL3-WTAP interaction, m6A deposition, as well cancer cell proliferation. Mechanistically, essential...

Mitochondria play essential roles in cancer cell adaptation to hypoxia, but the underlying mechanisms remain elusive. Through mitochondrial proteomic profiling, we here find that prolyl hydroxylase EglN1 (PHD2) accumulates on mitochondria under hypoxia. substrate-binding region β2β3 loop is responsible for its translocation and contributes breast tumor growth. Furthermore, identify AMP-activated protein kinase alpha (AMPKα) as an substrate mitochondria. The EglN1-AMPKα interaction their...
