Decreased PANK1 expression in kidney renal clear cell carcinoma: impact on cell apoptosis, invasion, migration, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition.

Objective: To investigate pantothenate kinases 1 (PANK1) expression in kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC) tissues, analyze its correlation with clinicopathological features and prognosis, and explore its impact on invasion, migration, and apoptosis in KIRC cells.

Methods: GEPIA (gene expression profiling interactive analysis), UALCAN and LinkedOmics, were employed to analyze PANK1 expression in KIRC tissues and its correlation with clinical characteristics. Comparative analyses were performed between KIRC (Caki-1 and 786-O) and noncancerous renal cells (HK-2 and RPTEC).

Multi-omics and single-cell sequencing analyses reveal the potential significance of circadian pathways in cancer therapy.

Background: Circadian rhythm disturbance is an independent risk factor for cancer. However, few studies have been reported on circadian rhythm related genes (CRGs) in cancer, so it is important to further explore the impact of CRGs in pan-cancer.

Research Design And Methods: The Cancer Genome Atlas database was used to collect cancer-related data such as copy number variation, single nucleotide variants, methylation, and survival differences.

Cuproptosis correlates with immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment based on pan-cancer multiomics and single-cell sequencing analysis.

Recent studies suggest that cuproptosis, a novel mode of cell death, may be associated with the development of cancer. However, no studies are showing its role in tumorigenesis, progression, and prognosis. In the present study, we comprehensively analyzed the expression difference, gene variation and methylation modification of cuproptosis-related genes (CRGs) in pan-cancer.

Comprehensive multi-omics analysis of the m7G in pan-cancer from the perspective of predictive, preventive, and personalized medicine.

Background: The N7-methylguanosine modification (m7G) of the 5' cap structure in the mRNA plays a crucial role in gene expression. However, the relation between m7G and tumor immune remains unclear. Hence, we intended to perform a pan-cancer analysis of m7G which can help explore the underlying mechanism and contribute to predictive, preventive, and personalized medicine (PPPM / 3PM).
