The Oncogenic Role of TNFRSF12A in Colorectal Cancer and Pan-Cancer Bioinformatics Analysis.

Purpose: Cancer has become a significant major public health concern, making the discovery of new cancer markers or therapeutic targets exceptionally important. Elevated expression of tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 12A (TNFRSF12A) expression has been observed in certain types of cancer. This project aims to investigate the function of TNFRSF12A in tumors and the underlying mechanisms.

A combined amplicon approach to nematode polyparasitism occurring in captive wild animals in southern China.

Background: Gastrointestinal tract (GIT) nematodes prefer to live in the intestines of wild animals, causing damage and even death, and posing a zoonotic risk. The polyparasitism of GIT nematodes results in the complex dynamics of the nematode communities that occur naturally in wild animals. However, the nematode community in captive wild animals is poorly understood.

Single-cell RNA sequencing reveals immune cell dysfunction in the peripheral blood of patients with highly aggressive gastric cancer.

Highly aggressive gastric cancer (HAGC) is a gastric cancer characterized by bone marrow metastasis and disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). Information about the disease is limited. Here we employed single-cell RNA sequencing to investigate peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), aiming to unravel the immune response of patients toward HAGC.

Targeting AKT induced Ferroptosis through FTO/YTHDF2-dependent GPX4 m6A methylation up-regulating and degradating in colorectal cancer.

Ferroptosis is a new type of iron-dependent programmed cell death induced by lipid peroxidation. However, the underlying mechanisms and function in tumor therapy still remain undisclosed especially in post-transcription regulation. Here, we found that targeting AKT significantly induced GPX4 dependent ferroptosis and suppressed colorectal cancer growth both in vitro and in vivo.

Transcription factor EB (TFEB) improves ventricular remodeling after myocardial infarction by inhibiting Wnt/-catenin signaling pathway.

Background: Adverse left ventricular remodeling after myocardial infarction (MI) compromises cardiac function and increases heart failure risk. Until now, comprehension of the role transcription factor EB (TFEB) plays after MI is limited.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to describe the effects of TFEB on fibroblasts differentiation and extracellular matrix expression after MI.

CAPG interference induces apoptosis and ferroptosis in colorectal cancer cells through the P53 pathway.

Purpose: Given the high incidence and mortality rates of colorectal cancer (CRC) and the inadequacy of existing treatments for many patients, this study aimed to explore the potential of Capping Actin Protein (CAPG), a protein involved in actin-related movements, as a novel therapeutic target for CRC.

Methods: Bioinformatic analysis of gene expression was conducted using the UALCAN website. Cell proliferation was measured using the CCK-8 kit.

Non-canonical role of UCKL1 on ferroptosis defence in colorectal cancer.

Background: Pyrimidine nucleotides fuel the growth of colorectal cancer (CRC), making their associated proteins potential targets for cancer intervention. Uridine-Cytidine Kinase Like-1(UCKL1) is an enzyme involved in the pyrimidine salvage pathway. It is highly expressed in multiple cancers.

Targeted Activation of HNF4α by AMPK Inhibits Apoptosis and Ameliorates Neurological Injury Caused by Cardiac Arrest in Rats.

Previous studies have shown that AMPK plays an important role in cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury by participating in apoptosis, but the exact mechanism and target of action remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the protective mechanism of AMPK activation on brain injury secondary to cardiac arrest. HE, Nills and TUNEL assays were used to evaluate neuronal damage and apoptosis.

Neuroprotective Effect of miR-483-5p Against Cardiac Arrest-Induced Mitochondrial Dysfunction Mediated Through the TNFSF8/AMPK/JNK Signaling Pathway.

Substantial morbidity and mortality are associated with postcardiac arrest brain injury (PCABI). MicroRNAs(miRNAs) are essential regulators of neuronal metabolism processes and have been shown to contribute to alleviated neurological injury after cardiac arrest. In this study, we identified miRNAs related to the prognosis of patients with neurological dysfunction after cardiopulmonary resuscitation based on data obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database.

Identification and Validation of Novel Potential Pathogenesis and Biomarkers to Predict the Neurological Outcome after Cardiac Arrest.

Predicting neurological outcomes after cardiac arrest remains a major issue. This study aimed to identify novel biomarkers capable of predicting neurological prognosis after cardiac arrest. Expression profiles of GSE29540 and GSE92696 were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database to obtain differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between high and low brain performance category (CPC) scoring subgroups.

Targeting ERK induced cell death and p53/ROS-dependent protective autophagy in colorectal cancer.

In recent years, many studies have shown that autophagy plays a vital role in the resistance of tumor chemotherapy. However, the interaction between autophagy and cell death has not yet been clarified. In this study, a new specific ERK inhibitor CC90003 was found to suppress colorectal cancer growth by inducing cell death both in vitro and in vivo.
