This investigation delves into the complex role of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in the modulation of hypoxia-induced HCC progression, with a specific emphasis on delineating and functionally characterizing the novel KLF4/Lnc18q22.2/ULBP3 axis.

The LINC00511-133aa coding sequence vector and control vector were transfected into MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells, with subsequent assessment of peptide expression using PCR, western blotting, and immunofluorescence assays. Cell proliferation, invasion, and apoptosis were evaluated using CCK8, apoptotic, wound healing, and transwell invasion assays, while the characteristic changes of tumor stem cells were detected through sphere-forming assay and western blot analyses of the stemness markers Oct4, Nanog, and SOX2.

Recently, targeted therapy for CC has shown unprecedented advantages. To improve CC patients' prognosis, there are still urgent needs to develop more promising therapeutic targets.

The memory phenotype of CAR-T has been correlated positively with a therapeutic effect on and prognosis of cancer.
Method: The proliferation rates of novel CAR-T was determined by cell counting.
Lung adenocarcinomas injured greatly on the people worldwide. Although clinic experiments and gene profiling analyses had been well performed, to our knowledge, systemic coexpression analysis of human genes for this cancer is still limited to date. Here, using the published data GSE75037, we built the coexpression modules of genes by Weighted Gene Co-Expression Network Analysis (WGCNA), and investigated function and protein-protein interaction network of coexpression genes by Database for Annotation, visualization, and Integrated Discovery (DAVID) and String database, respectively.

The aim of this study was to investigate the association of IL-33 rs7025417 and ST2 rs3821204 with the risk of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Genotyping of IL-33 rs7025417 and ST2 rs3821204 was carried out using a Taqman assay.
