Fine particulate matter (PM) has attracted increasing attention due to its health-threatening effects. Although numerous studies have investigated the impact of PM on lung injuries, the specific mechanisms underlying the damage to the air-blood barrier after exposure to PM remain unclear. In this study, we established an in vitro co-culture system using lung epithelial cells and capillary endothelial cells.

The efficacy of adjuvant chloroquine for glioblastoma remains controversial. We conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis to explore the influence of adjuvant chloroquine on treatment efficacy for recurrent glioblastoma. We search PubMed, Embase, Web of science, EBSCO, and Cochrane library databases through January 2020 for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) assessing the efficacy of adjuvant chloroquine for glioblastoma.

Here, we report that cyclin-dependent kinase-like 5 (CDKL5) is highly expressed in gliomas, and CDKL5 overexpression promotes invasion, proliferation, migration and drug (β-lapachone) resistance of glioma cells. In vitro, CDKL5 overexpression enhanced invasion, growth and migration of glioma cells, and stimulated the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/AKT axis.

However, the corresponding mechanism is not clear in HCC. High BRCA1 direct pathway was constructed with 11 molecules from E2F1 feedback-interactive network in HCC by GRNInfer based on 39 Pearson mutual positive corelation CC ≥0.

Our identified BIK interactive total feedback molecular network showed FUT3 [fucosyltransferase 3 (galactoside 3(4)-L-fucosyltransferase Lewis blood group)], PMM2 (phosphomannomutase 2), SQSTM1 (sequestosome 1), SFN_2 [REX2 RNA exonuclease 2 homolog (S.

Our identified EGFR_1 inside-out upstream activated molecular network showed SLC2A1 (solute carrier family 2 (facilitated glucose transporter) member 1), CCNB2 (cyclin B2), HMMR (hyaluronan-mediated motility receptor (RHAMM)), KIF11 (kinesin family member 11), NUSAP1 (nucleolar and spindle associated protein 1), PRC1 (protein regulator of cytokinesis 1), UBE2C (ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2C) in high lung adenocarcinoma.

Molecular targeted therapy has become a trend in treating tumors, including gliomas. However, molecular characteristics vary among different kinds of tumors and ethnic groups.

Based on GO, KEGG, GenMAPP, BioCarta, and disease databases, our result showed that low SLC2A5-inhibited network included Golgi apparatus of AP1M2_1; cell cycle of CUL7, SAC3D1; protein amino acid dephosphorylation of STYXL1; pro-B cell-cell differentiation of SOX4_3; and FAD biosynthesis of FLAD1.

Based on GO, KEGG, GenMAPP, BioCarta and disease databases, we determined AGR2-mediated lung adenocarcinoma metastasis through repression with cytoskeleton of MAST1; steroid metabolism of SOAT2; humoral immune response of POU2AF1; interferon alpha-inducible of IFI6; immunoglobulin of IGKC_3, CTA_246H3.

Our result showed that CAMK1 transport subnetwork upstream KCNQ3, LCN2, NKX2_5, NUP62, SORT1, STX1A activated CAMK1, and downstream CAMK1-activated AFP, ENAH, KPNA2, SLC4A3; CAMK1 signal subnetwork upstream BRCA1, DKK1, GPSM2, LEF1, NR5A1, NUP62, SORT1, SSTR5, TBL3 activated CAMK1, and downstream CAMK1-activated MAP2K6, SFRP4, SSTR5, TSHB, UBE2C in HCC.

In the present study, a comparison of the biological processes and gene ontology (GO) in human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with high expression (fold change ≥2) of amelogenin Y-linked (AMELY)-activated upstream regulation networks with non-tumor hepatitis/cirrhotic tissues (HBV or HCV infection) with low expression of activated networks was performed. The principle biological processes involved in non-tumor hepatitis/cirrhotic tissues include positive regulation of mismatch repair, regulation of transcription from RNA polymerase II promoters, negative regulation of cell-cell adhesion, protein ubiquitinatin and protein catabolism. The main biological processes involved in the development of HCC include positive regulation of calcium ion transport into the cytosol, cell proliferation, DNA replication, fibroblast proliferation, immune response, microtubule polymerization and protein secretion.
