Understanding the genetic basis of drought tolerance in safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.) is essential for developing resilient varieties. In this study, we performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) using DArTseq markers to identify marker-trait associations (MTAs) linked to drought tolerance across 90 globally diverse safflower genotypes.

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have emerged as crucial regulators in cancer progression. We found lncRNA DNM1P35 is elevated in ovarian tumors compared to normal tissues, and demonstrated that lncRNA DNM1P35 promoted cancer cell proliferation, migration and invasion in SK-OV-3 and OVCAR-3 cell lines. Furthermore, lncRNA DNM1P35 also facilitated the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of ovarian cancer cells.

Lung cancer ranks as the most prevalent malignant neoplasm worldwide, contributing significantly to cancer-related mortality. Stemness is a well-recognized factor underlying radiotherapy resistance, recurrence and metastasis in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. Our prior investigations have established the role of IQ motif containing GTPase-activating protein 3 (IQGAP3) in mediating radiotherapy resistance in lung cancer, but its impact on lung cancer stemness remains unexplored.

R-loops are critical structures that play pivotal roles in regulating genomic stability and modulating gene expression. This study investigates the interactions between the 5-methylcytosine (mC) methyltransferase NOP2/Sun RNA methyltransferase 2 (NSUN2) and R-loops in the transcriptional dynamics and damage repair process of bladder cancer (BCa) cells. We observed markedly elevated levels of R-loops in BCa cells relative to normal urothelial cells.

Oncolytic viruses are emerging as promising cancer therapeutic agents, with several poxviruses, including vaccinia virus (VACV) and myxoma virus, showing significant potential in preclinical and clinical trials. Modified vaccinia virus Ankara (MVA), a laboratory-derived VACV strain approved by the FDA for mpox and smallpox vaccination, has been shown to be incapable of replicating in human cells unless zinc finger antiviral protein (ZAP) is repressed. Notably, ZAP deficiency is prevalent in various cancer types.
