Background: Integrase interactor 1 (INI1), which encodes a component of the ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling hSWI-SNF complex, has been identified as a tumor suppressor in many tumors. Nonetheless, the role of INI1 in gastric tumor progression is not known exactly. The aim of this research was to investigate the effect of INI1 in the carcinogenesis and progression of gastric cancer.
Methods: Gastric tumor tissues with different differentiation levels from clinical gastric carcinoma samples and adjacent control normal tissues were taken. Expression levels of INI1 were detected by quantitative reverse transcriptation-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and Western blotting. Gastric cancer cell line SGC7901 was transfected with INI1 eukaryotic expressing vector INI1-GFP. Cell proliferation activities were assessed by MTT; cell count and cell cycle were detected by flow cytometry (FCM); cell apoptosis were measured by TUNEL and FCM; cell migration and invasiveness were evaluated by wound healing and transwell assays. Expression levels of INI1 and proliferation-related genes including p16, p21, cyclin D1 and cyclin A, apoptosis genes p53, B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2), Bcl-2-associated x protein (Bax) and caspase-3, and invasion-related genes including intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM1), matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP2), MMP9 and tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinase 1 (TIMP1), were detected by quantitative RT-PCR and Western blotting.
Results: INI1 expression levels were lower in gastric carcinoma compared with adjacent control normal tissues. Overexpression of INI1 in SGC7901 cells inhibited its proliferation and invasiveness, but increased anoikis and G(0)/G(1) cell number. INI1-GFP transfection upregulated expression of INI1 and proliferation related genes p16 and p21, apoptosis genes p53 and Bax, and invasion-related genes TIMP1; cyclin D1, cyclin A, Bcl2, ICAM1, MMP2 and MMP9 were downregulated, and there was no significant change in caspase 3 levels.
Conclusion: INI1 plays a key role in gastric carcinogenesis by affecting proliferation, apoptosis and invasion.

Background: Immune cells within tumor tissues play important roles in remodeling the tumor microenvironment, thus affecting tumor progression and the therapeutic response. The current study was designed to identify key markers of plasma cells and explore their role in high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC).
Methods: We utilized single-cell sequencing data from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database to identify key immune cell types within HGSOC tissues and to extract related markers via the Seurat package.

Background: The microbiome regulates the respiratory epithelium's immunomodulatory functions. To explore how the microbiome's biodiversity affects microbe-epithelial interactions, we screened 58 phylogenetically diverse microbes for their transcriptomic effect on human primary bronchial air-liquid interface (ALI) cell cultures.
Results: We found distinct species- and strain-level differences in host innate immunity and epithelial barrier response.

Background: The retinal degenerative diseases retinitis pigmentosa (RP) and atrophic age- related macular degeneration (AMD) are characterized by vision loss from photoreceptor (PR) degeneration. Unfortunately, current treatments for these diseases are limited at best. Genetic and other preclinical evidence suggest a relationship between retinal degeneration and inflammation.
