Objective: To detect the expressions of receptor-interacting protein (RIP) and caspase-8 and investigate their roles in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) and oral precancerous lesions.
Methods: SABC immunohistochemical methods were used to detect the expressions of RIP and caspase-8 in 22 specimens of OSCC, 14 specimens of oral lichen planus (OLP), 14 specimens of oral leukoplakia (OLK) and 10 specimens of normal oral mucosa (NOM).
Results: The rate of weak or negative expression of RIP in normal mucosa was 50% (5/10). The rates of weak and positive expression of RIP in OLP, OLK and OSCC were 75% (36/50), and the rate of positive and strong expression of RIP was 63.7% (14/22) in OSCC, significantly higher that in the others groups (P<0.05). The rates of weak, positive and strong positive expression of caspase-8 in NOM, OLP, OLK and OSCC were 80% (8/10), 100% (14/14), 85.7% (12/14), and 100% (22/22), respectively.
Conclusion: Both RIP and caspase-8 may play important roles in the occurrence and progression of OSCC and oral precancerous lesions.

Background: Mounting evidence exhibits circRNAs as critical regulators in the progression of many tumors. The regulatory function and potential mechanism by which circ_0008126 in gastric cancer (GC) is unknown.
Methods: To validate and analyze the expression levels and clinical values of circ_0008126 in GC patients, the biological phenotypes of circ_0008126 in GC were investigated in vitro and in vivo.

Background: Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) zinc finger protein 667-antisense RNA 1 () is closely related to the advancement of a variety of cancers, but its functional role in colorectal cancer remains unclear. This study was designed to explore the function and molecular mechanisms of lncRNA in colorectal cancer.
Methods: Reverse transcriptase real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was used for the detection of and proline-rich nuclear receptor co-activator protein 2 () expression level.

Objective: The present study was implemented to unravel the effect of lncRNA GAS5 on renal fibrosis induced by diabetic nephropathy (DN) by regulating the miR-542-3p/ERBB4 axis.
Methods: db/db mice were injected with lncRNA GAS5 high expression or miR-542-3p low expression related vectors. Biochemical experiments were performed to assess blood glucose level and urine protein concentration.

Bisphenol F (BPF) has become a new risk factor for male semen quality, but its specific mechanism is still unclear. Therefore, this study explored the potential mechanism of BPF affecting male semen quality from the perspective of ferroptosis and m6A RNA methylation. In vivo experiments showed that BPF destroyed the structure of seminiferous tubules, reduced the layers of spermatogenic cells, and reduced semen quality in mice.
