Ischemic stroke (IS) is a prominent type of cerebrovascular disease leading to death and disability in an aging society and is closely related to oxidative stress. Gene expression profiling (GSE222551) was derived from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO), and 1934 oxidative stress (OS) genes were obtained from the GeneCards database. Subsequently, we identified 149 differentially expressed genes related to OS (DEOSGs).

The objective of this study is to investigate the role and causal relationship between the target of tetrandrine and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) through transcriptome and single-cell sequencing data, summary-data-based Mendelian Randomization (SMR) and basic experiments. The aim is to provide a new perspective for the treatment of NSCLC.

Its aggressive nature, strong invasiveness, and rapid progression make it a significant health concern. In addition, oxidative stress can lead to the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) that surpass the body's antioxidant defense capacity, causing damage to proteins, lipids, and DNA, potentially promoting tumor development.

Oxidative stress (OS) is believed to contribute to neuronal death and dysfunction in AD. We conducted a study to identify differentially expressed OS-related genes (DEOSGs) through bioinformatics analysis and experimental validation, aiming to develop a diagnostic model for AD.

In this study, we obtained gene expression datasets for obesity (GSE151839) and PTC (GSE33630) from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO). We used the Perl program and R software to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and common genes, perform GO function and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis, construct a protein-protein interaction (PPI) network, identify hub genes, and perform transcription factors (TFs) analysis.

The datasets included 127 PCa cases and 52 normal controls. We filtered for differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and identified candidate PCa biomarkers using a least absolute shrinkage and selector operation (LASSO) regression model and support vector machine recursive feature elimination (SVM-RFE) analyses.

The potential of the heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) inhibitor 17-DMAG in promoting neuroprotection has been observed in certain vascular diseases. However, the precise role of 17-DMAG treatment in ICH is not yet fully understood.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFFerroptosis is a mode of programmed cell death that plays a crucial role in tumor biology processes. Although tetrandrine citrate (TetC) has been demonstrated to exert anti-tumor effects, it is still unclear whether TetC inhibits lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) progression by inducing ferroptosis. The study showcased the inhibitory effect of TetC on the viability and progression of tumor cells, including intracellular iron overload, accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), over-expression of malondial-dehyde (MDA), and depletion of glutathione (GSH).

View Article and Find Full Text PDFLung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) remains the most common subtype of lung malignancy. Cuproptosis is a newly identified cell death which could regulate tumor cell proliferation and progression. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are key molecules and potential biomarkers for diagnosing and treating various diseases.

Great efforts have been devoted to clarify the pathogenesis of BC, but the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unclear. To screen for the genes associated with the progression and carcinogenesis of BC, three datasets were obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus.

However, the underlying molecular mechanisms mediated by noncoding RNAs in these processes are unclear. Here, we obtained the expression profiles of long noncoding RNAs, microRNAs, and mRNAs from the Gene Expression Omnibus database and identified hepatocarcinogenesis-specific differentially expressed transcripts.
