Bacterial sRNAs are an emerging class of small regulatory RNAs, 40-500 nt in length, which play a variety of important roles in many biological processes through binding to their mRNA or protein targets. A comprehensive database of experimentally confirmed sRNA targets would be helpful in understanding sRNA functions systematically and provide support for developing prediction models. Here we report on such a database--sRNATarBase. The database holds 138 sRNA-target interactions and 252 noninteraction entries, which were manually collected from peer-reviewed papers. The detailed information for each entry, such as supporting experimental protocols, BLAST-based phylogenetic analysis of sRNA-mRNA target interaction in closely related bacteria, predicted secondary structures for both sRNAs and their targets, and available binding regions, is provided as accurately as possible. This database also provides hyperlinks to other databases including GenBank, SWISS-PROT, and MPIDB. The database is available from the web page http://ccb.bmi.ac.cn/srnatarbase/.

Securing Antarctica's Environmental Future, School of Biological Sciences, Monash University, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.

Antarctica is one of Earth's most untouched, inhospitable, and poorly known regions. Although knowledge of its biodiversity has increased over recent decades, a diverse, wide-ranging, and spatially explicit compilation of the biodiversity that inhabits Antarctica's permanently ice-free areas is unavailable. This absence hinders both Antarctic biodiversity research and the integration of Antarctica in global biodiversity-related studies.

Considering the potential detrimental impact of poverty on psychological development and the resulting harmful cycles, implementing poverty alleviation interventions is necessary for children and adolescents. Although several meta-analyses have demonstrated the effectiveness of monetary poverty reduction programs, there remains a significant gap in understanding how multidimensional poverty reduction strategies boost psychological development. This meta-analysis aims to address this gap by disclosing the impact of multifaceted anti-poverty interventions on the psychological development of children and adolescents.

Department of Breast Surgery, Thyroid Surgery, Huangshi Central Hospital, Affiliated Hospital of Hubei Polytechnic University, No.141, Tianjin Road, Huangshi, 435000, Hubei, China.

Background: The heterogeneity of breast cancer (BC) necessitates the identification of novel subtypes and prognostic models to enhance patient stratification and treatment strategies. This study aims to identify novel BC subtypes based on PANoptosis-related genes (PRGs) and construct a robust prognostic model to guide individualized treatment strategies.

Methods: The transcriptome data along with clinical data of BC patients were sourced from the TCGA and GEO databases.

A pan-cancer analysis: predictive role of ZNF32 in cancer prognosis and immunotherapy response.

Discov Oncol

January 2025

Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, Nanfang Hospital, Southern Medical University, Guangzhou, 510515, China.

The zinc finger protein 32 (ZNF32) has been associated with high expression in various cancers, underscoring its significant function in both cancer biology and immune response. To further elucidate the biological role of ZNF32 and identify potential immunotherapy targets in cancer, we conducted an in-depth analysis of ZNF32. We comprehensively investigated the expression of ZNF32 across tumors using diverse databases, including TCGA, CCLE, TIMER2.
