LncRNA RPARP-AS1 promotes the progression of osteosarcoma cells through regulating lipid metabolism.

Osteosarcoma (OS) is a highly malignant tumor, and its dysregulated lipid metabolism is associated with tumorigenesis and unfavorable prognosis. Interestingly, long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have emerged as pivotal regulators of lipid metabolism, exerting notable impacts on tumor proliferation. Nevertheless, the involvement of RPARP-AS1, a novel lipid metabolism-associated lncRNA, remains unexplored in the context of OS.

LncRNA LBX2-AS1 impacts osteosarcoma sensitivity to JQ-1 by sequestering miR-597-3p away from BRD4.

Objective: Recent knowledge concerning the significance of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA)-mediated ceRNA networks provides new insight into their possible roles as specific biomarkers for the treatment of osteosarcoma (OS). Thus, this study aims to clarify the functional relevance and mechanistic actions of lncRNA LBX2-AS1 in OS.

Methods: Differential analysis was performed by integrating the TCGA and GTEx databases.

FKBP11 improves the malignant property of osteosarcoma cells and acts as a prognostic factor of osteosarcoma.

Background: Osteosarcoma has become the most common bone malignancy in adolescents. Although the clinical treatment of osteosarcoma has advanced considerably in recent years, the 5-year survival rate has not improved significantly. Recently, many studies have shown that mRNA has unique advantages as a target for drug therapy.

The synergistic anticancer effect of the bromodomain inhibitor OTX015 and histone deacetylase 6 inhibitor WT-161 in osteosarcoma.

Background: Osteosarcoma (OS) is a tumour with a high malignancy level and a poor prognosis. First-line chemotherapy for OS has not been improved for many decades. Bromodomain and extraterminal domain (BET) and histone deacetylases (HDACs) regulate histone acetylation in tandem, and BET and HDACs have emerged as potential cancer therapeutic targets.

The novel prognostic risk factor STC2 can regulate the occurrence and progression of osteosarcoma via the glycolytic pathway.

Osteosarcoma, a highly aggressive malignant tumor of the bone, usually occurs in children and young adults. However, although the considerable achievement in the clinical treatment of osteosarcoma recent years, the overall survival of osteosarcoma patients has not been obviously improved. Cancer cells preferentially use glycolysis instead of oxidative phosphorylation to meet their increased energetic and biosynthetic demands, a phenomenon known as the Warburg effect.

RNAi Silencing of IL-1β and TNF-α in the Treatment of Post-traumatic Arthritis in Rabbits.

Post-traumatic arthritis is a secondary complication to severe joint trauma. With the disease progression, it may eventually lead to osteoarthritis in patients whose age is considerably younger than patients with traditional bone arthritis. The main objective of this study was to explore the feasibility of using lentiviral-mediated RNA interference silencing of IL-1β and TNF-α to treat post-traumatic arthritis in rabbits.
