MicroRNA-494-3p facilitates the progression of bladder cancer by mediating the KLF9/RGS2 axis.

Bladder cancer (BC) is a familiar malignancy with high morbidity and mortality. The effect of treatment is unsatisfactory after the metastasis and invasion of BC. Hence, more studies should be carried out to explore the metastasis of BC.

MicroRNA 181a-2-3p Alleviates the Apoptosis of Renal Tubular Epithelial Cells via Targeting GJB2 in Sepsis-Induced Acute Kidney Injury.

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is the most common complication of sepsis. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play important roles in the sepsis-induced AKI. This paper aimed to explore the role of miRNA 181a-2-3p (miR-181a-2-3p) in the sepsis-induced AKI and the underlying mechanism.

circCELSR1 facilitates ovarian cancer proliferation and metastasis by sponging miR-598 to activate BRD4 signals.

Background: Ovarian cancer is one of the most common gynecologic cancers and has high mortality rate due to the lack of early diagnosis method and efficient therapeutic agents. circCELSR1 is up-regulated in ovarian cancer, but its role and mechanisms in ovarian cancer are unclear.

Methods: Gene expression of circCELSR1, miR-598 and BRD4 in ovarian cells was examined by qRT-PCR.

lncRNA ABHD11-AS1, regulated by the EGFR pathway, contributes to the ovarian cancer tumorigenesis by epigenetically suppressing TIMP2.

Objective: Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is a common gynecologic malignancy characterized by extensive peritoneal metastasis and high mortality rate. ABHD11 Antisense RNA1 (ABHD11-AS1) has recently been identified as a regulator of growth and metastasis in multiple tumors, including EOC. However, the biological function and potential mechanism of ABHD11-AS1 in EOC remains poorly understood.

M2-like tumor-associated macrophages-secreted EGF promotes epithelial ovarian cancer metastasis via activating EGFR-ERK signaling and suppressing lncRNA LIMT expression.

: Ovarian cancer (OC) is the gynecologic malignant tumor with high mortality. Accumulating evidence indicates that M2-like tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) can secret EGF to participate in ovarian cancer growth, migration, and metastasis. An EGF-downregulated lncRNA, LIMT (lncRNA inhibiting metastasis), was identified as a critical regulator of mammary cell migration and invasion.
