AI Article Synopsis
- hnRNPs are a diverse group of proteins that play crucial roles in DNA repair, telomere maintenance, cell signaling, and gene expression regulation.
- Individual hnRNPs have potential implications in tumor development by influencing processes like apoptosis (cell death), angiogenesis (formation of new blood vessels), and cell invasion.
- This review aims to explore the various functions of hnRNPs in cancer progression and their abnormal expression in tumor tissues.
Article Abstract
The heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoproteins (hnRNP) are a family of proteins which share common structural domains, and extensive research has shown that they have central roles in DNA repair, telomere biogenesis, cell signaling and in regulating gene expression at both transcriptional and translational levels. Through these key cellular functions, individual hnRNPs have a variety of potential roles in tumour development and progression including the inhibition of apoptosis, angiogenesis and cell invasion. The aims of this review are to provide an overview of the multi functional roles of the hnRNPs, and how such roles implicate this family as regulators of tumour development. The different stages of tumour development that are potentially regulated by the hnRNPs along with their aberrant expression profiles in tumour tissues will also be discussed.

The DNA cross-link repair 1B (DCLRE1B) gene is involved in repairing cross-links between DNA strands, including those associated with Hoyeraal-Hreidarsson syndrome and congenital dyskeratosis. However, its role in tumours is not well understood. DCLRE1B expression profiles were examined in tumour tissues and normal tissues using TCGA, GTEx, and TARGET datasets.

Vaginal reconstruction is necessary for various congenital and acquired conditions, including vaginal aplasia, trauma, tumors, and gender incongruency. Current surgical and non-surgical treatments often result in significant complications. Decellularized vaginal matrices (DVMs) from human tissue offer a promising alternative, but require effective sterilization to ensure safety and functionality.

Cuproptosis, a newly identified form of cell death, has drawn increasing attention for its association with various cancers, though its specific role in colorectal cancer (CRC) remains unclear. In this study, transcriptomic and clinical data from CRC patients available in the TCGA database were analyzed to investigate the impact of cuproptosis. Differentially expressed genes linked to cuproptosis were identified using Weighted Gene Co-Expression Network Analysis (WGCNA).
