Ferroptosis is a new type of programmed cell death, which has been involved in the progression of tumours. However, the regulatory network of ferroptosis in pancreatic cancer is still largely unknown. Here, using datasets from GEO and TCGA, we screened HSPB1, related to the P450 monooxygenase signalling, a fuel of ferroptosis, to be a candidate gene for regulating pancreatic cancer cell ferroptosis.

We aimed to screen genes that regulate ferroptosis and doxycycline resistance in pancreatic cancer and to explore the underlying mechanisms. Bioinformatics analysis was performed to identify genes that respond to ferroptosis in two human pancreatic cancer cells with GOT1 knocked down or not.

Previous research revealed changes in the miRNA and mRNA expression profiles of brain tissues during fluvalinate exposure, as well as key genes and pathways. The role of circRNAs in this process, however, is unknown.

To date, the transcriptomic characteristics associated with fluvalinate-induced neuronal injury in the bee brain have not been reported. Here, we performed transcriptome sequencing on ligustica ( ligustica) brain tissues collected before and after fluvalinate treatment.

Objective: To investigate HMGB-1 expression and its extracellular release of cultured primary hepatic parenchymal cells (HC) and Kupffer cells (KC) that were induced by lipopolysaccharides (LPS).
Methods: Primary hepatic parenchymal cells and Kupffer cells were cultured in flasks, and some cells were treated with 500 microg/L LPS for 24 hours (induced group) and some were not treated with LPS and served as controls. All of the cells were repeatedly frozen-thawed, and the expression levels of HMGB1-mRNA and HMGB1 proteins were detected by semi-quantitative RT-PCR and Western blot respectively.
