The pan-cancer landscape presented ITGA7 as a prognostic determinant, tumor suppressor, and oncogene in multiple tumor types.

Integrin α7 (ITGA7) is an extracellular matrix-binding protein. Integrins are the main type of cell adhesive molecules in mammals, playing a role in many biological pathways. Although various studies have shown correlations between ITGA7 and various types of cancer, a comprehensive study at a pan-cancer level has not yet been conducted.

Increased Expression Level of Human Blood Clotting Factor VIII Using NS0 Cell Line as a Host Cells.

Background: Coagulation factor VIII (FVIII) is applied for spontaneous hemorrhaging inhibition and excessive bleeding after trauma in patients with hemophilia A. High-quality human recombinant factor VIII (rFVIII) has been produced relatively in large quantities in cultured mammalian cells. NS0 is one of the most common mammalian cell lines for therapeutic protein production.

An in-silico study to determine susceptibility to cancer by evaluating the coding and non-coding non-synonymous single nucleotide variants in the gene.

Single Nucleotide Variant (SNVs) affect gene expression as well as protein structure and activity, leading to reduced signaling capabilities and ultimately, increasing cancer risk. SOCS3 (suppressor of cytokine signaling 3), a critical tumor suppressor providing a substantial part in the feedback loop of the JAK/STAT pathway, is abnormally suppressed in various cancer. This study aims to screen non-coding and potentially deleterious coding SNVs in the gene.

Molecular Mechanisms of miR-214 Involved in Cancer and Drug Resistance.

As a transcriptional regulation element, the microRNA plays a crucial role in many aspects of molecular biological processes, like cellular metabolism, cell division, cell death, cell movement, intracellular signaling, and immunity. Previous studies suggested that microRNA-214 (miR-214) is probably a valuable cancer marker. In this study, a brief updated overview of the vital dual role of miR-214 in cancer as a tumor suppressor or oncogene was provided.

Clinical significance of long non-coding RNA ZEB2-AS1 and EMT-related markers in ductal and lobular breast cancer.

Background: Breast cancer is considered the most prevalent type of cancer in women and accounts for a high rate of death. A body of research has demonstrated that lncRNAs have a regulatory function in human diseases, especially cancers. ZEB2-AS1 is known as an oncogenic lncRNA in various types of cancers, and its deregulation may contribute to cancer development and progression.

The expanding role of CDR1-AS in the regulation and development of cancer and human diseases.

CircRNAs are a superabundant and highly conserved group of noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) that are characterized by their high stability and integrity compared with linear forms of ncRNAs. Recently, their critical role in gene expression regulation has been shown; thus, it is not far-fetched to believe that their abnormal expression can be a cause of different kinds of diseases such as cancer, neurodegenerative, and autoimmune diseases. They can have a function in variety of biological processes such as microRNA (miRNA) sponging, interacting with RNA-binding proteins, or even an ability to translate to proteins.

lncRNA ZEB2-AS1: A promising biomarker in human cancers.

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are one of the ncRNAs that transcript with length more than 200 nt that are not translated into protein. Studies have shown that lncRNAs have regulatory function in human disease especially cancers. lncRNA dysfunction causes altered cellular behavior including proliferation, invasion, and migration, and also it can inhibit apoptosis.
