Prognostic and biological function value of OSBPL3 in colorectal cancer analyzed by multi-omic data analysis.

Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common malignancies in the world. This study proposes to reveal prognostic biomarkers for the prognosis and treatment of CRC patients.

Methods: Differential analysis of OSBPL3 was performed in pan-cancer, and the correlation between clinical stage and OSBPL3 was analyzed.

Identification and verification of the prognostic value of CUL7 in colon adenocarcinoma.

CUL7, a gene composed of 26 exons associated with cullin 7 protein, is also an E3 ligase that is closely related to cell senescence, apoptosis, and cell transformation and also plays an important role in human cancer. However, there is no systematic pan-cancer analysis has been performed to explore its role in prognosis and immune prediction. In this study, the expression of CUL7 in colon adenocarcinoma (COAD) was investigated to determine its prognosis value.

Hsa-miR-1248 suppressed the proliferation, invasion and migration of colorectal cancer cells via inhibiting PSMD10.

Background: Lymph node metastasis (LNM) is a critical event during the colorectal cancer (CRC) development and is indicative of poor prognosis. Identification of molecular markers of LNM may facilitate better therapeutic decision-making.

Methods: Six pairs of CRC tissues and corresponding adjacent tissues [3 pairs diagnosed as pT1N0M0 (M_Low group) and 3 pairs diagnosed as pT4N2M0 (M_High group)] collected from CRC patients who underwent surgical resection were used.

A cholesterogenic gene signature for predicting the prognosis of young breast cancer patients.

Purpose: We aimed to establish a cholesterogenic gene signature to predict the prognosis of young breast cancer (BC) patients and then verified it using cell line experiments.

Methods: In the bioinformatic section, transcriptional data and corresponding clinical data of young BC patients (age ≤ 45 years) were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database for training set. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were compared between tumour tissue ( = 183) and normal tissue ( = 30).

Extracellular Vesicles Derived from Human Umbilical Cord Mesenchymal Stem Cells Protect Liver Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury by Reducing CD154 Expression on CD4+ T Cells via CCT2.

As a cause of postoperative complications and early hepatic failure after liver transplantation, liver ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI) still has no effective treatment during clinical administration. Although the therapeutic potential of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) for liver IRI has been previously shown, the underlying mechanisms are not completely clear. It is accepted that MSC-derived extracellular vesicles (MSC-EVs) are newly uncovered messengers for intercellular communication.

MSCs ameliorate hepatocellular apoptosis mediated by PINK1-dependent mitophagy in liver ischemia/reperfusion injury through AMPKα activation.

Hepatocyte apoptosis is the main pathophysiological process underlying liver ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. Mitochondrial abnormalities have a vital role in hepatocellular damage. The hepatoprotective effects of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been previously demonstrated.

Preconditioning of umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells by rapamycin increases cell migration and ameliorates liver ischaemia/reperfusion injury in mice via the CXCR4/CXCL12 axis.

Objectives: Transfusion of umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells (UC-MSCs) is a novel strategy for treatment of various liver diseases. However, the therapeutic effect of UC-MSCs is limited because only a few UC-MSCs migrate towards the damaged regions. In this study, we observed the effects of autophagy on the migration of UC-MSCs in vitro and in a model of liver ischaemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury.

Extracellular vesicles derived from human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells alleviate rat hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury by suppressing oxidative stress and neutrophil inflammatory response.

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been reported to exert therapeutic effects on immunoregulation, tissue repair, and regeneration from the bench to the bedside. Increasing evidence demonstrates that extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from MSCs could contribute to these effects and are considered as a potential replacement for stem cell-based therapies. However, the efficacy and underlying mechanisms of EV-based treatment in hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) remain unclear.
