Background: Solasonine has been demonstrated to exert an inhibitory effect on bladder cancer (BC), but the potential mechanisms remain unclear. Therefore, the aim of this study is to explore the association between microRNAs (miRNAs)-mediated regulation and the anti-tumor activities of solasonine in BC.
Methods: MiRNA sequencing was performed to identify the differentially expressed microRNAs (DE-miRNAs) associated with solasonine in BC cells.
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most aggressive primary nervous system brain tumor. There is still a lack of effective methods to control its progression and recurrence in clinical treatment. It is clinically found that Xiaoliu Decoction (XLD) has the effect of treating brain tumors and preventing tumor recurrence.

Wound healing is a major medical problem due to trauma and pathophysiological alterations suffered by patients. The aim of the present study was to search for potential autophagy genes associated with wound healing.

The study sought to screen important pyroptosis-related genes and their role in the prognosis of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) patients with brain metastasis (BM).
Methods: The Gene Expression Omnibus database was used to obtain transcriptome data from primary TNBC and from TNBC BM patients.

Background: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a common autoimmune disease that affects all organs. Recently, several studies have shown that pyroptosis playsa significant process in the occurrence and progression of SLE. However, no study has investigated the association between pyroptosis genes and SLE.

Background: The formation of portal vein tumor thrombus (PVTT) is closely related to the prognosis of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the mechanisms by which PVTTs form and the biomarkers involved are still little understood.
Methods: The Genome Expression Omnibus (GEO) and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) databases were used to obtain transcriptome data from normal tissue, HCC tissue, primary tumors (PTs) of HCC, and paired PVTT tissue.

Background: The immune microenvironment plays an essential role in osteosarcoma (OSs); however, differences in immune-related long non-coding ribonucleic acids (irlncRNAs) in children with localized OSs and metastatic OSs have not yet been investigated.
Methods: The clinical data and the transcriptome of OSs were obtained from the Therapeutically Applicable Research to Generate Effective Treatments (TARGET) database, and the immune-related genes were derived from the imported dataset. The correlations between immune-related genes and lncRNAs were examined.
Background: The immune microenvironment is a critical regulator of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) progression. However, the underlying mechanisms the regulatory role of immune-related long non-coding RNAs (irlncRNAs) in the ccRCC tumor microenvironment (TME) are still obscure. Herein, we investigated prognostics role of irlncRNAs for ccRCC.
