LncRNA GAS5-hnRNPK axis inhibited ovarian cancer progression via inhibition of AKT signaling in ovarian cancer cells.

Background: The incidence of ovarian cancer ranks third among gynecologic malignancies, but the mortality rate ranks first.

Methods: The expression of GAS5 is low in ovarian cancer and is associated with the low survival of ovarian cancer patients according to public ovarian cancer databases. GAS5 overexpression inhibited ovarian malignancy by affecting the proliferation and migratory abilities in OVCAR3 and A2780 cells.

Parasite reliance on its host gut microbiota for nutrition and survival.

Studying the microbial symbionts of eukaryotic hosts has revealed a range of interactions that benefit host biology. Most eukaryotes are also infected by parasites that adversely affect host biology for their own benefit. However, it is largely unclear whether the ability of parasites to develop in hosts also depends on host-associated symbionts, e.

The complete mitochondrial genome of (Hymenoptera: Diapriidae).

(Hymenoptera: Diapriidae) is an important pupal endoparasitoid of species, which has been found to be an ideal biocontrol agent to . In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome of (GeneBank accession number: MN966974) was sequenced using Illumina HiSeq X Ten system. The mitochondrial genome is 16,375 bp long and comprises 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes and 2 ribosomal RNA genes.

The developmental transcriptome of Trichopria drosophilae (Hymenoptera: Diapriidae) and insights into cuticular protein genes.

The pupal endoparasitoid wasp Trichopria drosophilae (Hymenoptera: Diapriidae) plays an important role in biological control of many frugivorous fruit fly species including Drosophila suzukii, a well-known invasive pest. Here, we report the transcriptomes of T. drosophilae among different developmental stages.
