Background: Abnormal dynamics of the Golgi apparatus reshape the tumor microenvironment and immune landscape, playing a crucial role in the prognosis and treatment response of cancer. This study aims to investigate the potential role of Golgi apparatus-related genes (GARGs) in the heterogeneity and prognosis of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC).
Methods: Transcriptional data and corresponding clinical information of HNSCC were obtained from public databases for differential expression analysis, consensus clustering, survival analysis, immune infiltration analysis, immune therapy response assessment, gene set enrichment analysis, and drug sensitivity analysis.
Lysosomes possess a multitude of biological functions and are known to play a crucial role in the proliferation and metastasis of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). This study aims to systematically investigate the potential role of lysosomes-related genes (LRGs) in the development of heterogeneity and prognosis in HNSCC. Publicly available transcriptome and clinical data of HNSCC were obtained and analyzed using consensus clustering to identify molecular subtypes.

Allergic rhinitis (AR) is one of the most common chronic diseases. This study examined whether microRNA (miR)-182-5p plays a role in AR by regulating toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4). First, data demonstrated that TLR4 was a target of miR-182-5p.

The response of soil enzyme activity to different land uses is important in addressing the issues of agricultural sustainability. The objectives of this study were to investigate the effects of short-term land use conversions on soil specific enzyme activity (per unit microbial biomass carbon) of sodic soils and compare the responses of soil absolute (per unit soil mass) and specific enzyme activities in northeastern China.
