    Abstract: Laryngeal cancer accounts for 25%–30% of tumors in the head and neck. Cystatin SN (CST1) was revealed to show upregulated expression in this cancer, while its functions and upstream pathway remain unknown and need investigation. The current study was designed to solve this problem. We designed short hairpin RNAs targeting CST1 for the loss-of-function assays to probe the influences of CST1 in laryngeal cancer cell proliferation and motility. The upstream competitive endogenous RNA pattern of CST1 was searched using bioinformatics analysis and confirmed by luciferase reporter assays. The experimental results demonstrated that CST1 is a tumor facilitator in laryngeal cancer by stimulating cellular proliferative, migrative, and invasive abilities. CST1 is regulated by the long intergenic non-protein-coding RNA 1278 (LINC01278)/miR-185-5p axis. LINC01278 knockdown and miR-185-5p overexpression exert the same functions as CST1 knockdown to repress cancer cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. In conclusion, LINC01278 plays an oncogenic role in laryngeal cancer by suppressing miR-185-5p to enhance CST1 expression, which enriches the molecular mechanism for the carcinogenesis of laryngeal cancer.

    Abstract: Gastric cancer is the most common gastrointestinal tumor with an increasing incidence. Furthermore, advanced gastric cancer is more common, but the mechanism underlying the proliferation and metastasis of gastric cancer has not been thoroughly explored. N6-methyladenosine (m6A) methyltransferase 3 (METTL3) may be involved in the proliferation and metastasis of gastric cancer. Therefore, Yes-associated protein 1 (YAP1) in the Hippo pathway was selected as the target, and the relationship between METTL3 and the proliferation and metastasis of gastric cancer was proved through a series of experiments. This research showed that the expression of m6A and METTL3 was upregulated in human gastric cancer tissues and gastric cancer cell lines. After lentiviral transfection, METTL3 silencing in AGS (human gastric adenocarcinoma cell line AGS) and MKN-45 (human gastric cancer cell line MKN-45) gastric cancer cell lines directly inhibited the proliferation, aggressiveness, and migration of gastric cancer cells. Mechanically, the inhibition of the YAP1-TEAD signaling pathway by peptide 17 reduces m6A methylation and the total mRNA level of YAP1. It also eliminates the promoting effect of METTL3 on the proliferation and migration of gastric cancer cells. In turn, the overexpression of YAP1 eliminates the inhibitory effect of METTL3 silencing on the proliferation, migration, and invasion of gastric cancer cells. This article proved that m6A methyltransferase METTL3 promoted the proliferation and migration of gastric cancer cells through the m6A modification of YAP1.

    Abstract: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the third-highest cause of cancer-related death in the world. miRNAs have a role in cell division, differentiation, and death biological processes. They are typically dysregulated in cancers, affecting tumor progression. miRNA-296-3p appears to play a crucial role in cancer control, according to new research. However, its expression and roles in HCC are unknown. This study used qRT-PCR and western blotting to detect the miRNA-296-3p and male-specific lethal 2 (MSL2) expression. In addition, cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and apoptosis were studied using CCK-8, flow cytometric analysis, colony formation assay, wound healing test, and transwell assays. The results show that miRNA-296-3p is underexpressed in HCC cell lines, particularly in Huh-7 and HepG2 cells. miRNA-296-3p overexpression lowers the ability of HCC cells to proliferate, migrate, and invade while increasing cell death. Luciferase reporter experiments revealed that the MSL2 is a direct target of miRNA-296-3p. Furthermore, overexpression of miRNA-296-3p reduced MSL2 mRNA and protein levels considerably, according to our findings. Furthermore, the rescue experiments showed that the MSL2 overexpression partially blocked the inhibition effects of miRNA-296-3p mimic on the proliferation and migration of HCC cells. The above results show that miRNA-296-3p may have a repressive effect in HCC by targeting MSL2 and could be used as a therapeutic target for HCC treatment.

    Abstract: Background. Interleukin-2 (IL-2) is proved to play an irreplaceable role in antitumor regulation in numerous experimental and clinical trials. Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) are able to release exosomes to promote the development and progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) as essential component of microenvironment. In this study, our intention is to explore the effects of the exosomes from TAMs with IL-2 treatment on HCC development. TAMs were collected and cultured from HCC tissues. The exosomes from the TAMs treated with IL-2 (ExoIL2-TAM) or not (ExoTAM) were identified and used to treat HCC cells in vivo and in vitro. The proliferation, apoptosis, and metastasis of HCC cells were measured. The changes of miRNAs in exosomes were explored to clarify the possible mechanisms. Both decrease of cell proliferation and metastasis and increase of apoptosis were observed with ExoIL2-TAM treatment compared with ExoTAMin vivo and in vitro. miR-375 was obviously augmented in ExoIL2-TAM and HCC cells treated with ExoIL2-TAM. Taken together, IL-2 may modulate exosomal miRNAs from TAMs to ameliorate hepatocellular carcinoma development. This study provides a new perspective to explain the mechanism by which IL-2 inhibits hepatocellular carcinoma and implies the potential clinical value of exosomal miRNAs released by TAMs.

    Abstract: Background. Molecular features have been included in the categorization of gliomas because they may be excellent predictors of tumor prognosis. Lower-grade glioma (LGGs, which comprise grade 2 and grade 3 gliomas) patients have a wide variety of outcomes. The goal of this research is to investigate a pyroptosis-based long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) profile and see whether it can be used to predict LGG prognosis. Methods. The Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) and Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) datasets were utilized to get RNA data and clinical information for this research. Six considerably related lncRNAs (AL355574.1, AL355974.2, Z97989.1, SNAI3-AS1, LINC02593, and CYTOR) were selected using Cox regression (univariate and multivariate) and LASSO Cox regression. A variety of statistical techniques, including ROC curves, nomogram, and Kaplan-Meier curves, were utilized to verify the risk score’s accuracy. Following that, bioinformatics studies were carried out to investigate the possible molecular processes that influence LGG prognosis. The variations in pathway enrichment were investigated using GSEA. The immune microenvironment inconsistencies were investigated using CIBERSORT, ESTIMATE, MCPcounter, TIMER algorithms, and ssGSEA. Results. We discovered six lncRNAs with distinct expression patterns that are linked to LGG prognosis. Kaplan-Meier studies showed a signature of high-risk lncRNAs associated with a poor prognosis for LGG. Furthermore, the AUC of the lncRNA signature was 0.763, indicating that they may be used to predict LGG prognosis. In predicting LGG prognosis, our risk assessment approach outperformed conventional clinicopathological characteristics. In the high-risk group of people, GSEA identified tumor-related pathways and immune-related pathways. Furthermore, T cell-related activities such as T cell coinhibition and costimulation, check point, APC coinhibition and costimulation, CCR, and inflammatory promoting were shown to be substantially different between the two groups in TCGA analysis. Immune checkpoints including PD-1, CTLA4, and PD-L1 were expressed differentially in the two groups as well. Conclusion. This study found that pyroptosis-based lncRNAs were useful in predicting LGG patients’ survival, suggesting that they may be used as a therapeutic target in the future.

    Abstract: Background and Objective. Sentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy efficiency has been confirmed in various solid tumors. This study aimed to assess SLN biopsy feasibility in clinical application and explore how to improve its detection rates and diagnostic accuracy in cervical cancer laparoscopic surgery. Methods. A total of 100 cervical cancer patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery with SLN biopsy were included. Indocyanine green, carbon nanoparticles (CNPs), and a combination of both were used during surgeries. Detection rates, sensitivity, negative predictive value (NPV) of SLN biopsy, and related factors were analyzed. Results. The overall and bilateral SLN detection rates were 92% (92/100) and 74% (74/100), respectively. Combined tracers had higher bilateral SLN detection rates than CNPs alone ( p = 0.005 ). Menopause and lymph node metastasis were associated with lower overall and bilateral SLN detection rates ( p 〈 0.05 ). SLN biopsy sensitivity and NPV for lymph node metastasis in patients with at least one detected SLN were 81.8% (9/11) and 97.3% (72/74), respectively. Among those with bilateral detected SLNs, higher sensitivity and NPV of 87.5% (7/8) and 98.3% (57/58) were observed, respectively. SLN algorithm can ensure that all patients with lymph node metastasis are detected by SLN biopsy. Conclusion. SLN biopsy appears to be safe and effective for specific cervical cancer patients with high detection rates and NPV in laparoscopic surgery, especially for those with detected bilateral SLNs and undergoing the SLN algorithm. Selecting suitable patients for SLN mapping has prospects for clinical application.

    Abstract: Background. Circular RNA circ_0004771 (termed circNRIP1) was identified by RNA-Seq previously and was elevated in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) tissues. A series of studies also showed that circNRIP1 was upregulated in some tumors and could promote the malignant progression of tumors. This research intended to focus on the role of circNRIP1 in PTC progression and explore the mechanisms underlying circNRIP1 functions. Methods. RT-PCR or western blot determined circNRIP1, miR-653-5p, and pre-B-cell leukemia homeobox 3 (PBX3) expression. EdU, CCK-8, Tunel, and transwell assays determined cell proliferation, apoptosis, invasion, and migration, respectively. Luciferase reporter assay, RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP), and RNA pull down assays clarified the target relation between miR-653-5p and circNRIP1 or PBX3. Xenograft models were applied to explore the role of circNRIP1 in vivo. Results. circNRIP1 significantly increased in PTC tissues and PTC cell lines than that in normal ones. Higher circNRIP1 expression was associated with the TNM stage and poorer overall survival. circNRIP1 knockdown attenuated the malignant progression of PTC, specifically by inhibiting proliferation and invasion/migration and promoting apoptosis. circNRIP1 was a miR-653-5p sponge; miR-653-5p knockdown reversed the suppressive role of circNRIP1 silence in PTC progression. PBX3, a target of miR-653-5p, was positively medicated through circNRIP1 via competitively sponging miR-653-5p. Knockdown of circNRIP1 attenuated the PTC tumor progression via miR-653-5p/PBX3 axis. Conclusion. Silencing of circNRIP1 suppressed PTC development via miR-653-5p elevation and PBX3 reduction, providing a novel perspective for understanding PTC pathogenesis.

    Abstract: Pancreatic cancer (PC) has a high degree of malignancy and poor prognosis, and countless patients have distant metastasis when diagnosed. Gemcitabine (GEM) chemotherapy is one of the main ways of treatment. However, PC cells have been displayed chemoresistance to GEM during treatment. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been demonstrated to be the most popular diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers in PC with GEM resistance. Here, we assessed the potential of circLMTK2 in the GEM resistance of PC cells. Functional assays were implemented to measure the impacts of circLMTK2 on the proliferation, migration/invasion, and apoptosis of GEM-resistant PC cells. Bioinformatics analysis and mechanical experiments displayed the underlying mechanism of circLMTK2 in GEM-resistant PC cells. We found that circLMTK2 was upregulated in PC and GEM-resistant PC tissues and cells. CircLMTK2 knockdown suppressed proliferation, invasion, migration, and enhanced apoptosis in GEM-resistant PC cells. Moreover, circLMTK2 silencing could decrease GEM resistance-associated tumor size in vivo. In terms of mechanism, circLMTK2 served as a sponge for miR-485-5p, and miR-485-5p bound to p21 (RAC1) activated kinase 1 (PAK1), which were clarified via the dual-luciferase assay in PC cell lines. We confirmed that circLMTK2 knockdown attenuated GEM-resistant PC cells by regulating PAK1 via miR-485-5p. Our study demonstrated that circLMTK2 may be a novel diagnostic and prognostic biomarker in GEM-resistant PC cells.

    Abstract: Background. Patients with advanced gastric cancer (AGC) with peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) usually have poor outcomes and high mortality risk, even with cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). This study analyzed the prognostic factors of AGC with PC and evaluated laparoscopic HIPEC (LHIPEC) plus neoadjuvant intraperitoneal and systemic chemotherapy (NIPS) as a conversion surgery for AGC patients with PC with a poor initial prognosis. Patient and Methods. We retrospectively evaluated 127 patients with AGC and PC from January 1, 2012, to March 1, 2020. After the exclusion of 32 ineligible patients, the conversion group comprised 34 patients who underwent LHIPEC + NIPS as a conversion surgery followed by CRS plus HIPEC. The CRS + HIPEC group included 15 patients who underwent CRS with HIPEC alone. Additionally, the C/T group comprised 23 patients who received systemic chemotherapy, and the palliative group comprised 23 patients who received only conservative therapy or palliative gastrectomy. Results. The conversion group demonstrated a significantly better mean overall survival compared to the CRS + HIPEC, C/T, and palliative groups ( p 〈 0.001 ). Patients in the conversion group who underwent LHIPEC + NIPS had significantly decreased peritoneal cancer index (PCI) scores ( p 〈 0.001 ) and ascites ( p = 0.003 ). Malignant ascites amount also significantly decreased after treatment in the LHIPEC + NIPS group ( p 〈 0.001 ). Conclusions. LHIPEC + NIPS can significantly improve the overall survival, the PCI score, and malignant ascites amount in peritoneal cytology-positive gastric cancer with PC, and an initially high PCI score. Therefore, it may be a feasible conversion strategy for AGC patients with PC.

    Abstract: Cancer is a leading cause of death and disability worldwide. Epigenetic deregulation is one of the most critical mechanisms in carcinogenesis and can be classified into effects on DNA methylation and histone modification. MicroRNAs are small noncoding RNAs involved in fine-tuning their target genes after transcription. Various microRNAs control the expression of histone modifiers and are involved in a variety of cancers. Therefore, overexpression or downregulation of microRNAs can alter cell fate and cause malignancies. In this review, we discuss the role of microRNAs in regulating the histone modification machinery in various cancers, with a focus on the histone-modifying enzymes such as acetylases, deacetylases, methyltransferases, demethylases, kinases, phosphatases, desumoylases, ubiquitinases, and deubiquitinases. Understanding of microRNA-related aberrations underlying histone modifiers in pathogenesis of different cancers can help identify novel therapeutic targets or early detection approaches that allow better management of patients or monitoring of treatment response.
