KHDRBS1 regulates the pentose phosphate pathway and malignancy of GBM through SNORD51-mediated polyadenylation of ZBED6 pre-mRNA.

Glioblastoma is one of the most common and aggressive primary brain tumors. The aberration of metabolism is the important character of GBM cells and is tightly related to the malignancy of GBM. We mainly verified the regulatory effects of KHDRBS1, SNORD51 and ZBED6 on pentose phosphate pathway and malignant biological behavior in glioblastoma cells, such as proliferation, migration and invasion.

M6A-methylated circPOLR2B forms an R-loop and regulates the biological behavior of glioma stem cells through positive feedback loops.

Glioma is the most common primary brain tumor, and targeting glioma stem cells (GSCs) has become a key aspect of glioma treatment. In this study, we discovered a molecular network in which circRNA forms an R-loop structure with its parental gene to regulate the biological behavior of GSCs. Genes with abnormal expression in GSCs were screened using RNA-seq and circRNA microarray analyses.

m5C modification of LINC00324 promotes angiogenesis in glioma through CBX3/VEGFR2 pathway.

Angiogenesis plays a major role in tumor initiation, progression, and metastasis. This is why finding antiangiogenic targets is essential in the treatment of gliomas. In this study, NSUN2 and LINC00324 were significantly upregulated in conditionally cultured glioblastoma endothelial cells (GECs).

RBMS3-induced circHECTD1 encoded a novel protein to suppress the vasculogenic mimicry formation in glioblastoma multiforme.

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is a highly vascularized malignant cancer of the central nervous system, and the presence of vasculogenic mimicry (VM) severely limits the effectiveness of anti-vascular therapy. In this study, we identified downregulated circHECTD1, which acted as a key VM-suppressed factor in GBM. circHECTD1 elevation significantly inhibited cell proliferation, migration, invasion and tube-like structure formation in GBM.

SUMOylation of RALY promotes vasculogenic mimicry in glioma cells via the FOXD1/DKK1 pathway.

Human malignant gliomas are the most common and aggressive primary malignant tumors of the human central nervous system. Vasculogenic mimicry (VM), which refers to the formation of a tumor blood supply system independently of endothelial cells, contributes to the malignant progression of glioma. Therefore, VM is considered a potential target for glioma therapy.

Pseudogene MAPK6P4-encoded functional peptide promotes glioblastoma vasculogenic mimicry development.

Glioma is the most common primary malignancy of the central nervous system. Glioblastoma (GBM) has the highest degree of malignancy among the gliomas and the strongest resistance to chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Vasculogenic mimicry (VM) provides tumor cells with a blood supply independent of endothelial cells and greatly restricts the therapeutic effect of anti-angiogenic tumor therapy for glioma patients.

CircMTA1 promotes glioblastoma angiogenesis by encoding MTA1-134aa.

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most malignant brain tumor with rapid angiogenesis. How to inhibit GBM angiogenesis is a key problem to be solved. To explore the targets of inhibiting GBM angiogenesis, this study confirmed that the expression of circMTA1 (hsa_circ_0033614) was significantly upregulated in human brain microvascular endothelial cells exposed to glioma cell-conditioned medium (GECs).

A novel peptide P1-121aa encoded by STK24P1 regulates vasculogenic mimicry via ELF2 phosphorylation in glioblastoma.

Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common malignant tumor of the central nervous system. Vasculogenic mimicry (VM) is a hematological system composed of tumor cells that exert blood perfusion without relying on vascular endothelial cells. The current poor results of anti-vascular therapy for clinical GBM are associated with the presence of VM; therefore, it is important to investigate VM formation in GBM.

Mechanism of Dcp2/RNCR3/Dkc1/Snora62 axis regulating neuronal apoptosis in chronic cerebral ischemia.

RNA-binding proteins (RBPs), long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), and small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) were found to play crucial regulatory roles in ischemic injury. Based on GEO databases and our experimental results, we selected Dcp2, lncRNA-RNCR3, Dkc1, and Snora62 and Foxh1 as research candidates. We found that expression levels of Dcp2, RNCR3, Dkc1, Snora62, and Foxh1 were upregulated in oxygen glucose deprivation-treated HT22 cells and hippocampal tissues subject to chronic cerebral ischemia (CCI).

U3 snoRNA-mediated degradation of ZBTB7A regulates aerobic glycolysis in isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 wild-type glioblastoma cells.

Aims: The isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) phenotype is associated with reprogrammed energy metabolism in glioblastoma (GBM) cells. Small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) are known to exert an important regulatory role in the energy metabolism of tumor cells. The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of C/D box snoRNA U3 and transcription factor zinc finger and BTB domain-containing 7A (ZBTB7A) in the regulation of aerobic glycolysis and the proliferative capacity of IDH1 wild-type (IDH1 ) GBM cells.

SNORD17-mediated KAT6B mRNA 2'-O-methylation regulates vasculogenic mimicry in glioblastoma cells.

Glioblastoma (GBM) is a primary tumor in the intracranial compartment. Vasculogenic mimicry (VM) is a process in which a pipeline of tumor cells that provide blood support to carcinogenic cells is formed, and studying VM could provide a new strategy for clinical targeted treatment of GBM. In the present study, we found that SNORD17 and ZNF384 were significantly upregulated and promoted VM in GBM, whereas KAT6B was downregulated and inhibited VM in GBM.

A novel cuproptosis-related gene signature to predict prognosis in Glioma.

Glioma is primary brain tumour with a poor prognosis. Metabolic reprogramming is a hallmark of glioma, and is critical in the development of antiglioma agents and glioma therapy. Cuproptosis is a novel form of cell death mediated by protein lipidation and highly associated with mitochondrial metabolism.

The mechanism of BUD13 m6A methylation mediated MBNL1-phosphorylation by CDK12 regulating the vasculogenic mimicry in glioblastoma cells.

Vasculogenic mimicry (VM) is an endothelium-independent tumor microcirculation that provides adequate blood supply for tumor growth. The presence of VM greatly hinders the treatment of glioblastoma (GBM) with anti-angiogenic drugs. Therefore, targeting VM formation may be a feasible therapeutic strategy for GBM.

The MBNL1/circNTRK2/PAX5 pathway regulates aerobic glycolysis in glioblastoma cells by encoding a novel protein NTRK2-243aa.

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common tumor of the human central nervous system. Aerobic glycolysis has been strongly related to tumor development and malignant behavior. In this study, we found that MBNL1, circNTRK2, and NTRK2-243aa were markedly downregulated and inhibited glycolysis in GBM, whereas PAX5 was upregulated and promoted glycolysis.

CPEB2 m6A methylation regulates blood-tumor barrier permeability by regulating splicing factor SRSF5 stability.

The blood-tumor barrier (BTB) contributes to poor therapeutic efficacy by limiting drug uptake; therefore, elevating BTB permeability is essential for glioma treatment. Here, we prepared astrocyte microvascular endothelial cells (ECs) and glioma microvascular ECs (GECs) as in vitro blood-brain barrier (BBB) and BTB models. Upregulation of METTL3 and IGF2BP3 in GECs increased the stability of CPEB2 mRNA through its m6A methylation.

The different effect of tongue motor task training (TTT) and strength training (ST) on the modulation of genioglossus corticomotor excitability and upper airway stability in rats.

Study Objectives: The mechanical efficiency of upper airway (UA) muscles are pivotal in maintaining UA stability. We aimed to investigate if different tongue training approaches could differently induce signs of neuroplastic in the corticomotor pathways and upper airway stability changes.

Methods: 36 Sprague-Dawley rats were trained daily for eight weeks to lick an isotonic force-sensing disc at targeting forces using 30%-50% of maximal achieved lick force (MALF) for tongue task training (TTT) or targeting force set above 50%, 60%, and 70% of MALF progressively for tongue strength training (TST).
