The aim of the study was to investigate the inhibitory effects of RNA interference on XIAP gene expression of human endometrial carcinoma RL95-2 cell and the cell apoptosis. Specific small interference RNA (siRNA) of XIAP was designed and composed. Transfection of siRNA was conducted in endometrial carcinoma cell line RL95-2. The XIAP gene mRNA was assessed by real-time PCR and the change of XIAP protein was assessed with Western Blotting. The cell proliferation and apoptosis was assessed by MTT and flow cytometry methods. After transfection of siRNA specifically targeting XIAP, the relative fold of mRNA transfection in the specific transfection group was (0.04 ± 0.06) and the relative protein expression was (0.590 ± 0.178), which was significantly decreased when compared with the control group (P < 0.05); the cell growth inhibition rate in the transfection group was (47.86 ± 4.46)%, which was significantly increased when compared to the control group (P < 0.05). In vitro experiment showed that synthetic siRNA could effectively inhibit the transfection and expression of XIAP gene of human endometrial carcinoma RL95-2 cell at the mRNA level and protein level, thus significantly promote the apoptosis of endometrial carcinoma cell. The mechanisms involved in the apoptosis still require further investigation.

Objective The purpose of this study was to investigate how miR-200b-3p inhibitors the proliferation and metastasis of endometrial cancer(EC) cells by inducing the expression of FOS-like antigen 2(FOSL2) of activator protein 1(AP1) transcription family. Methods Endometrial cancer cell line HEC-1-A was divided into 12 groups: NC-mimic (transfected with negative control NC mimic), miR-200b-3p mimic (transfected with miR-200b-3p mimic), NC-inhibitor (transfected with negative control NC inhibitor), miR-200b-3p inhibitor group (transfected with miR-200b-3p inhibitor), si-NC (transfected with negative control Si-NC), si-FOSL2 (transfected with si-FOSL2), oe-NC (transfected with negative control oe-NC), oe-FOSL2 group (oe-FOSL2), miR-200b-3p mimic+oe-NC group (co-transfected with miR-200b-3p mimic and oe-NC), miR-200b-3p mimic+oe-FOSL2 group (co-transfected with miR-200b-3p mimic and oe-FOSL2), miR-200b-3p inhibitor+si-NC group (co-transfected with miR-200b-3p inhibitor and si-NC), miR-200b-3p inhibitor+si-FOSL2 group (co-transfected with miR-200b-3p inhibitor and si-FOSL2). Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR, Western blot, CCK-8 assay, scratch test and Transwell assay were used to detect the expression of miR-200b-3p mRNA, FOSL2 mRNA and protein expression level, cell proliferation, migration and invasion.

P53-abnormal endometrial carcinomas are high-grade and aggressive tumors which should be treated with chemo-/radiotherapy. In low-grade endometrioid carcinoma (LGEC), abnormal expression of p53 is an exceptional finding and is typically accompanied by patchy p16 positivity and diffuse hormone receptor expression. Herein, we report a case of LGEC exhibiting both p53 and p16 overexpression, highlighting the diagnostic pitfalls related to such phenotype.

Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD) is a self-limited, idiopathic, non-neoplastic disorder characterized by the proliferation of phagocytic histiocytes, which can mimic malignant lymphoproliferative disease. Cases of RDD most commonly present as bilateral painless cervical lymphadenopathy, with lesser involvement of the axilla, inguinal, and mediastinal lymph nodes. We present the case of a 62-year-old woman with a history of endometrial serous carcinoma who underwent evaluation at a dedicated breast imaging department after positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) revealed breast masses and axillary nodes with increased uptake of fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG).

Although pyroptosis-related genes have been reported to contribute to tumor pathogenesis, the specific mechanism of pyroptosis in patients with UCEC remains elusive. We provide an overview of the landscape of pyroptosis-related genes in UCEC tissues through single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-Seq) datasets from the tissues of UCEC of 6089 cells.

Article Synopsis
- NCAPG contributes to the development of endometrial cancer by activating the PI3K-AKT signaling pathway, making it a potential tumor marker.
- The study utilized advanced techniques like ATAC-Seq, CHIP, and CoIP to demonstrate how NCAPG influences cell proliferation and invasion by modulating LEF1's interaction with chromatin, which subsequently affects the transcription of SEMA7A.
- The NCAPG/LEF1/SEMA7A pathway is linked to cancer progression and severity in patients, suggesting that targeting this molecular pathway could lead to new treatments for endometrial cancer.
