Interactions between the RNA transcript of the tumor suppressor cDNA clone, p14-6 (the 3'untranslated region of the nuclear factor for human interleukin-6; NF-IL6 3'UTR), and the reversion-related proteins BNF, were investigated. It was found that: (1) the recognition site of the RNA for BNFs was a 24-nucleotide segment located within the 3'-proximal U-rich sequence; (2) the BNFs were a group of proteins which may interact with each other before interacting with a site on the RNA as a protein complex; (3) possibly only one protein in the complex, namelyR62, directly bound to the RNA site.

Early antiretroviral therapy (ART) initiation is known to limit the establishment of the HIV reservoir, with studies suggesting benefits such as a reduced number of infected cells and a smaller latent reservoir. However, the long-term impact of early ART initiation on the dynamics of the infected cell pool remains unclear, and clinical evidence directly comparing proviral integration site counts between early and late ART initiation is limited. In this study, we used Linear Target Amplification-PCR (LTA-PCR) and Next Generation Sequencing to compare unique integration site (UIS) clonal counts between individuals who initiated ART during acute HIV infection stage (Acute-ART group) and those in the AIDS stage (AIDS-ART group).

Background & Aims: The ubiquitin receptor ADRM1/Rpn13 governs the specificity of eukaryotic protein degradation. By SMRT sequencing, we first discovered a novel spliced variant of ADRM1 with a skipped exon 9, termed ADRM1-ΔEx9, in human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). This study aimed to elucidate this novel ubiquitin receptor's underlying biology and clinical implications in HCC.

Gastric cancer (GC), among the most prevalent malignant tumors globally, demonstrates a rapid metastasis rate leading to high mortality. While microRNAs (miRNAs) have been recognized as critical regulators of tumor progression, the specific role of miR-28-3p in GC remains unclear. In this study, we demonstrate that miR-28-3p acts as a tumor suppressor by inhibiting GC cell proliferation and EMT-driven migration in vitro, as well as tumor growth and metastasis in vivo.

BRAF inhibitors (BRAFi) represent a cornerstone in melanoma therapy due to their high efficacy. However, the emergence of resistance causes a significant challenge to their clinical utility. This study aims to investigate the potential of diclofenac as a sensitizer for BRAFi therapy in melanoma and to elucidate its underlying mechanism.

INhibitor of Growth (ING1-5) proteins are epigenetic readers that target histone acetyltransferase (HAT) or histone deacetylase (HDAC) complexes to the H3K4Me3 mark of active transcription. ING5 targets Moz/Morf and HBO1 HAT complexes that alter acetylation of H3 and H4 core histones, affecting gene expression. Previous experiments in vitro indicated that ING5 functions to maintain stem cell character in normal and in cancer stem cells.
