Background: Diabetes is one of the most common diseases and major public health burdens worldwide. Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is associated with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, and lncRNAs play an important role in HCV-induced T2DM. We aimed to explore the effect of lncRNA AC040162.3 on HCV-induced T2DM.
Methods: HCV was used to infect MIN6 cells to establish an in vitro model. HCV copy number and miRNA expression were detected by Real Time Quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR). Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) was used to detect the secretion of insulin, and methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) was applied to analyze cell viability. Apoptosis was analyzed by Western blotting and flow cytometry. In addition, Western blotting and TdT-mediated dUTP Nick End Labeling (TUNEL) were used to analyze pyroptosis. Luciferase reporter assays were used to investigate the targeting relationship.
Results: The expression of LncRNA AC040162.3 and NLRP3 was markedly increased in HCV-T2DM, while the expression of miR-223-3p was remarkably inhibited. In vitro experiments demonstrated that lncRNA AC040162.3 silencing or miR-223-3p overexpression remarkably alleviated HCV-induced T2DM deterioration by inhibiting cell apoptosis and pyroptosis and enhancing cell viability. We then demonstrated that silencing lncRNA AC040162.3 promoted the expression of miR-223-3p and that miR-223-3p bound to lncRNA AC040162.3 and the NLRP3 binding site. In addition, the protective effects of LncRNA AC040162.3 silencing in HCV-infected MIN6 cells were reversed by overexpression of NLRP3 or silencing of miR-223-3p.
Conclusion: Silencing of lncRNA AC040162.3 alleviates the process of HCV-induced T2DM by governing the miR-223-3p/NLRP3 axis.
背景:糖尿病是世界范围内最常见的疾病之一,也是主要的公共卫生负担。2型糖尿病(T2DM)与慢性丙型肝炎病毒(HCV)感染相关,lncrna在HCV诱导的T2DM中发挥重要作用。我们旨在探讨lncRNA AC040162.3对hcv诱导的T2DM的影响。方法:采用HCV感染MIN6细胞建立体外模型。采用实时定量PCR (RT-qPCR)检测HCV拷贝数和miRNA表达。采用酶联免疫吸附法(ELISA)检测胰岛素分泌,甲基噻唑四氮唑(MTT)检测细胞活力。Western blotting和流式细胞术分析细胞凋亡。此外,使用Western blotting和tdt介导的dUTP Nick End Labeling (TUNEL)分析焦亡。荧光素酶报告基因检测用于研究靶向关系。结果:在HCV-T2DM中,LncRNA AC040162.3和NLRP3的表达明显升高,miR-223-3p的表达明显抑制。体外实验表明,lncRNA AC040162.3沉默或miR-223-3p过表达可通过抑制细胞凋亡和焦亡,增强细胞活力,显著缓解hcv诱导的T2DM恶化。然后,我们证明沉默lncRNA AC040162.3促进了miR-223-3p的表达,并且miR-223-3p结合到lncRNA AC040162.3和NLRP3结合位点。此外,LncRNA AC040162.3沉默在hcv感染的MIN6细胞中的保护作用被NLRP3过表达或miR-223-3p沉默逆转。结论:沉默lncRNA AC040162.3可通过调控miR-223-3p/NLRP3轴缓解hcv诱导的T2DM过程。

Stress has become a universal biological phenomenon in the body, which leads to pathophysiological changes. However, the molecular network interactions between endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and ferroptosis under stressful conditions are not clear. For this purpose, we screened the gene expression profile of GSE173795 for intersection with ferroptosis genes and screened 68 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) (63 up-regulated, 5 down-regulated), mainly related to lipid and atherosclerosis, autophagy-animal, mitophagy-animal, focal adhesion, DNA replication, proteasome, oocyte meiosis, toll-like receptor signaling pathway, cell cycle, etc. Immune infiltration analysis revealed that stress resulted in decreased B cells memory, T cells CD8 and T cells CD4 memory resting, monocytes, macrophages M2, and increased B cells naive, T cells follicular helper, and macrophages M1. 19 core-DEGs (ASNS, TRIB3, ATF4, EIF2S1, CEBPG, RELA, HSPA5, DDIT3, STAT3, MAP3K5, HIF1A, HNF4A, MAPK14, HMOX1, CDKN1A, KRAS, SP1, SIRT1, EGFR) were screened, all of which were up-regulated DEGs. These biological processes and pathways were mainly involved in responding to ER stress, lipid and atherosclerosis, cellular response to stress, cellular response to chemical stress, and regulation of DNA-templated transcription in response to stress, etc. Spearman analysis did not find MAPK14 to be significantly associated with immune cells. Other core-DEGs were associated with immune cells, including B cells naive, T cells follicular helper, and monocytes. Based on core-DEGs, 283 miRNAs were predicted. Among the 22 miRNAs with highly cross-linked DEGs, 11 had upstream lncRNA, mainly targeting STAT3, SP1, CDKN1A, and SIRT1, and a total of 39 lncRNA were obtained. 85 potential drugs targeting 11 core-DEGs were identified and were expected to be potential immunotherapeutic agents for stress injury. Our experiments also confirmed that Liproxstatin-1 alleviates common cross-linked proteins between ER stress and ferroptosis. In conclusion, our study explored the molecular mechanisms and network interactions among stress-ER stress-ferroptosis from a novel perspective, which provides new research ideas for studying stressful injury.

Background: CD36 is the receptor of oxidised low-density lipoprotein (OxLDL) in renal tubular epithelial cells. Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) is the key factor in the activation of the Nrf2 signalling pathway and the regulation of oxidative stress. Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (Keap1) is known as an Nrf2 inhibitor. Methods: We used OxLDL and Nrf2 inhibitors at different concentrations and durations to treat renal tubular epithelial cells; the expression of CD36 and cytoplasmic and nucleic Nrf2 and E-cadherin in those cells were observed by Western blot and reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction. Results: The protein levels of Nrf2 decreased in expression after 24 hours of OxLDL treatment. At the same time, the Nrf2 protein level in the cytoplasm did not change significantly compared with that of the control group, and the Nrf2 protein level expression in the nucleus increased. Both the messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) and protein expression of CD36 decreased following the treatment of cells with the Nrf2 inhibitor Keap1. Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 was overexpressed, and CD36 mRNA and protein expression were decreased in OxLDL-treated cells. Following the overexpression of Keap1, E-cadherin expression was reduced in NRK-52E cells. Conclusion: Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 can be activated by OxLDL; however, it can only alleviate OxLDL-induced oxidative stress by transferring from the cytoplasm to the nucleus. Additionally, Nrf2 may play a protective role by upregulating CD36.

Lung cancer is one of the most lethal malignant tumors in the world. Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most common pathological subtype. However, the molecular mechanism of NSCLC progress is still unclear. We extracted the expression data of the Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) gene in NSCLC tissues from the TCGA database. The results of paired t-test showed that the BTK gene was significantly underexpressed in NSCLC tissues. To further verify the above results, we detected the expression of the BTK gene in NSCLC cell lines A549, H1299, and H1650 at the RNA and protein levels by real-time fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction and Western Blot analysis, respectively. The results showed that BTK was low expressed in NSCLC tissues and cells. More importantly, the expression of the BTK gene is also significantly related to the patient's age, gender, tumor range (T), lymph node invasion (N), tumor stage, and prognosis, and its expression level gradually decreases with the progress of the disease. It is speculated that BTK may be an independent prognostic factor of NSCLC. Our experimental results are consistent with the above clinical correlation analysis results. Overexpression of BTK can significantly inhibit the proliferation, migration, and invasion of NSCLC cells and can block the G0/G1 tumor cell cycle, indicating that overexpression of BTK can inhibit the growth, migration, and invasion of NSCLC cells.

Introduction: This study aimed to examine the incidence of incidental papillary microcarcinoma (PMC) and papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) in patients with benign multinodular goiter (MNG) and to compare their relationship with some prognostic factors from a new perspective.
Methods: Bilateral total thyroidectomy (BTT) was used to evaluate the data of 716 patients who underwent a surgery for MNG. The prognostic data for these tumors and the relationship between patients with bilateral and multifocal tumors were evaluated using statistical tests.
Results: Papillary carcinomas were detected in 201 patients, PMC in 134 of them, and PTCs in 67. Bilaterality was more common in patients with PTCs than in those with PMC. The incidence of bilaterality in male patients with PTC was statistically more common. The presence of intra-tumoral lymphocytes was higher in multifocal PTC cases than in unifocal PTC cases.
Conclusion: The results revealed that the number of PMC s was high in incidental tumors, and patients with PTC with male sex, bilaterality, multifocality, and tumor capsule invasion were associated with poor prognosis.

Background: PTGES3 is upregulated in multiple cancer types and promotes tumorigenesis and progression. However, the clinical outcome and immune regulation of PTGES3 in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) are not fully understood. This study aimed to explore the expression level and prognostic value of PTGES3 and its correlation with potential immunotherapy in LUAD.
Methods: All data were obtained from several databases, including the Cancer Genome Atlas database. Firstly, gene and protein expression of PTGES3 were analyzed using Tumor Immune Estimation Resource (TIMER), R software, Clinical Proteomic Tumor Analysis Consortium (CPTAC), and Human Protein Atlas (HPA). Thereafter, survival analysis was conducted using the R software, Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis 2 (GEPIA2), and Kaplan-Meier Plotter. In addition, gene alteration and mutation analyses were conducted using the cBio Cancer Genomics Portal (cBioPortal) and Catalog of Somatic Mutations in Cancer (COSMIC) databases. The molecular mechanisms associated with PTGES3 were assessed via Search Tool for the Retrieval of Interacting Genes/Proteins (STRING), GeneMANIA, GEPIA2, and R software. Lastly, the role of PTGES3 in immune regulation in LUAD was investigated using TIMER, Tumor-Immune System Interaction Database (TISIDB), and SangerBox.
Results: The gene and protein expression of PTGES3 were elevated in LUAD tissues and compared to the normal tissues, and the high expression of PTGES3 was correlated with cancer stage and tumor grade. Survival analysis revealed that overexpression of PTGES3 was associated with poor prognosis of LUAD patients. Moreover, gene alteration and mutation analysis revealed the occurrence of several types of PTGES3 gene alterations in LUAD. Moreover, co-expression analysis and cross-analysis revealed that three genes, including CACYBP, HNRNPC, and TCP1, were correlated and interacted with PTGES3. Functional analysis of these genes revealed that PTGES3 was primarily enriched in oocyte meiosis, progesterone-mediated oocyte maturation, and arachidonic acid metabolism pathways. Furthermore, we found that PTGES3 participated in a complex immune regulation network in LUAD.
Conclusion: The current study indicated the crucial role of PTGES3 in LUAD prognosis and immune regulation. Altogether, our results suggested that PTGES3 could serve as a promising therapeutic and prognosis biomarker for the LUAD.
背景:PTGES3在多种癌症类型中上调,并促进肿瘤的发生和进展。然而,PTGES3在肺腺癌(LUAD)中的临床结果和免疫调节尚不完全清楚。本研究旨在探讨PTGES3在LUAD中的表达水平、预后价值及其与潜在免疫治疗的相关性。方法:所有数据均来自包括Cancer Genome Atlas数据库在内的多个数据库。首先,利用肿瘤免疫估计资源(Tumor Immune Estimation Resource, TIMER)、R软件、临床蛋白质组学肿瘤分析联盟(Clinical Proteomic Tumor Analysis Consortium, CPTAC)和人类蛋白质图谱(Human protein Atlas, HPA)分析PTGES3的基因和蛋白表达。随后,使用R软件、基因表达谱交互分析2 (GEPIA2)和Kaplan-Meier绘图仪进行生存分析。此外,基因改变和突变分析使用cBio癌症基因组学门户网站(cbiopportal)和癌症体细胞突变目录(COSMIC)数据库进行。通过Search Tool for Retrieval of Interacting Genes/Proteins (STRING)、GeneMANIA、GEPIA2和R软件评估与PTGES3相关的分子机制。最后,利用TIMER、肿瘤-免疫系统相互作用数据库(TISIDB)和SangerBox研究PTGES3在LUAD免疫调节中的作用。结果:与正常组织相比,LUAD组织中PTGES3基因及蛋白表达均升高,且PTGES3高表达与肿瘤分期、肿瘤分级相关。生存分析显示PTGES3过表达与LUAD患者预后不良相关。此外,基因改变和突变分析显示LUAD中存在几种类型的PTGES3基因改变。此外,共表达分析和交叉分析显示,CACYBP、HNRNPC和TCP1三个基因与PTGES3存在相关和相互作用。功能分析显示,PTGES3主要富集于卵母细胞减数分裂、孕激素介导的卵母细胞成熟和花生四烯酸代谢途径。此外,我们发现PTGES3在LUAD中参与了一个复杂的免疫调节网络。结论:本研究提示PTGES3在LUAD预后和免疫调节中具有重要作用。总之,我们的研究结果表明PTGES3可以作为LUAD治疗和预后的有希望的生物标志物。

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), which has become one of the most significant malignancies causing cancer-related mortality, presents genetic and phenotypic heterogeneity that makes predicting prognosis challenging. Aging-related genes have been increasingly reported as significant risk factors for many kinds of malignancies, including HCC. In this study, we comprehensively dissected the features of transcriptional aging-relevant genes in HCC from multiple perspectives. We applied public databases and self-consistent clustering analysis to classify patients into C1, C2, and C3 clusters. The C1 cluster had the shortest overall survival time and advanced pathological features. Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression analysis was adopted to build the prognostic prediction model based on six aging-related genes (HMMR, S100A9, SPP1, CYP2C9, CFHR3, and RAMP3). These genes were differently expressed in HepG2 cell lines compared with LO2 cell lines measured by the mRNA expression level. The high-risk score group had significantly more immune checkpoint genes, higher tumor immune dysfunction and exclusion score, and stronger chemotherapy response. The results indicated that the age-related genes have a close correlation with HCC prognosis and immune characteristics. Overall, the model based on six aging-associated genes demonstrated great prognostic prediction ability.

Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most prevalent malignancies and is associated with high mortality. Transmembrane protein 147 (TMEM147) is a seven-transmembrane protein that may mediate immune regulation. However, the relevance of TMEM147 to immune regulation in HCC and the prognosis of HCC patients are unclear.
Methods: We analyzed TMEM147 expression in HCC by using the Wilcoxon rank-sum test. Real time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) and Western blot analysis of tumor tissues and cell lines were used to verify TMEM147 expression in HCC. The influence of TMEM147 on HCC prognosis was assessed using Kaplan-Meier analysis, Cox regression analysis, and a prognostic nomogram. The functions of the TMEM147-related differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified by Gene Ontology (GO)/Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analyses and gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA). In addition, we examined the associations between TMEM147 expression and immune infiltration using single-sample gene set enrichment analysis (ssGSEA) and immunofluorescence staining of HCC tissues.
Results: Our results showed that the expression of TMEM147 was significantly higher in human HCC tissues than in adjacent normal liver tissues, with similar findings in human HCC cell lines. High TMEM147 expression was correlated with T stage, pathological stage, histological grade, race, alpha-fetoprotein level, and vascular invasion in HCC. Moreover, we revealed that high TMEM147 expression was associated with shorter survival times and that TMEM147 could be a risk factor for overall survival, along with T stage, M stage, pathological stage, and tumor status. Mechanistic studies revealed that high TMEM147 expression was linked to the B lymphocyte, antigen response, IL6 signaling pathway, cell cycle, Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (KRAS) signaling pathway, and myelocytomatosis oncogene (MYC) targets. Correspondingly, TMEM147 expression was positively associated with the infiltration of immune cells, including Th2 cells, follicular helper T cells, macrophages, and NK CD56 bright cells in HCC.
Conclusions: TMEM147 might be a biomarker for poor prognosis and is related to immune cell infiltration in HCC.

Objectives: To assess A-kinase anchor protein 95 (AKAP95), B-Raf, extracellular regulated protein kinases 1/2 (ERK1/2), and Elk-1 expression in colon cancer tissue, and characterize AKAP95 associations with B-Raf, ERK1/2, Elk-1, and colon cancer clinicopathological indices.
Methods: The immunohistochemistry streptavidin-perosidase (SP) method was used to determine protein expression levels in 64 colon cancer and 32 para-carcinoma tissue specimens.
Results: (1) Positive AKAP95 expression rates in colon cancer tissue were higher when compared with para-carcinoma tissue (92.19% vs. 59.38%, P < 0.05). Similar findings were determined for B-Raf (76.56% vs. 25%, P < 0.05), ERK1/2 (90.63% vs. 31.25%, P < 0.05), and Elk-1 levels (92.19% vs. 40.63%, P < 0.05). (2) No significant associations were identified between AKAP95, B-Raf, ERK1/2, and Elk-1 protein expression and degree of differentiation, histological type, and lymph node metastasis in colon cancer samples (P > 0.05); however, in The Cancer Genome Atlas and Gene Expression Omnibus datasets, AKAP95 was closely related to immune infiltration, and highly expressed AKAP95 was negatively associated with overall survival and relapse free survival rates in colon cancer patients. (3) Correlations were observed between AKAP95 and ERK1/2, AKAP95 and Elk-1, B-Raf and ERK1/2, B-Raf and Elk-1, and ERK1/2 and Elk-1 (all P < 0.05), but no correlation was observed between AKAP95 and B-Raf (P > 0.05).
Conclusions: AKAP95 may affect immune infiltration levels in colon cancer by participating in ERK1/2-Elk-1 signal transduction.
目的:评估a激酶锚定蛋白95 (AKAP95)、B-Raf、细胞外调节蛋白激酶1/2 (ERK1/2)和Elk-1在结肠癌组织中的表达,并表征AKAP95与B-Raf、ERK1/2、Elk-1和结肠癌临床病理指标的相关性。方法:采用免疫组化streptavidin-perosidase (SP)法检测64例结肠癌和32例癌旁组织的蛋白表达水平。结果:(1)AKAP95阳性表达率在结肠癌组织中高于癌旁组织(92.19% vs. 59.38%, P < 0.05)。B-Raf (76.56% vs. 25%, P < 0.05)、ERK1/2 (90.63% vs. 31.25%, P < 0.05)和Elk-1 (92.19% vs. 40.63%, P < 0.05)的表达结果相似。(2)结肠癌组织中AKAP95、B-Raf、ERK1/2、Elk-1蛋白表达与分化程度、组织学分型、淋巴结转移无显著相关性(P > 0.05);然而,在The Cancer Genome Atlas and Gene Expression Omnibus数据集中,AKAP95与免疫浸润密切相关,且高表达的AKAP95与结肠癌患者的总生存率和无复发生存率呈负相关。(3) AKAP95与ERK1/2、AKAP95与Elk-1、B-Raf与ERK1/2、B-Raf与Elk-1、ERK1/2与Elk-1均有相关性(P < 0.05),但与B-Raf无相关性(P > 0.05)。结论:AKAP95可能通过参与ERK1/2-Elk-1信号转导影响结肠癌免疫浸润水平。

Myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury seriously threats the health and life of patients with ischemia heart disease. Herein, we probed the potential influence of myosin 1b (myo1b) on hypoxia/reoxygenation- (H/R-) stimulated cardiomyocyte H9c2 cell apoptosis and autophagy. After H/R stimulation, the myo1b mRNA level in H9c2 cells was tested via qRT-PCR. Myo1b overexpression plasmid (OE-myo1b) and small interfering RNA (siRNA) targeting myo1b (si-myo1b) were transfected into H9c2 cells to alter myo1b expression in H9c2 cells. Following H/R stimulation and/or OE-myo1b (or si-myo1b) transfection, H9c2 cell apoptosis, proliferation, and autophagy were detected, respectively. We found that H/R stimulation reduced the mRNA level of myo1b in H9c2 cells and resulted in H9c2 cell apoptosis, proliferation inhibition, and autophagy. Overexpression of myo1b reversed the H/R-resulted H9c2 cell apoptosis, proliferation inhibition, and autophagy. Silence of myo1b had opposite effects, which promoted H9c2 cell apoptosis, reduced cell proliferation, and accelerated cell autophagy. Taken together, Myo1b took part in the modulation of H/R-stimulated cardiomyocyte apoptosis and autophagy, which might be serve as a potential endogenous target for prevention and therapy of I/R injury.
