Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the second leading cause of cancer-related mortalities in China. Although advances have been made in treatments, the prognosis of HCC patients has not improved significantly. MicroRNAs (miRNA) play important roles in all stage of the progress of HCC. miR-4782-3p takes part in the pathogenesis of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, the role of miR-4782-3p in HCC remains unknown. In the present study, we found that miR-4782-3p had low expression in HCC tissues. The low expression of miR-4782-3p indicated shorter survival of HCC patients. Moreover, the low expression of miR-4782-3p promoted HCC cells growth and inhibited cell apoptosis. We confirmed that USP14 was targeted by miR-4782-3p in HCC cells.

Diabetic wounds are complicated by underlying peripheral vasculopathy. Reliance on vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) therapy to improve perfusion makes logical sense, yet clinical study outcomes on rescuing diabetic wound vascularization have yielded disappointing results. Our previous work has identified that low endothelial phospholipase Cγ2 (PLCγ2) expression hinders the therapeutic effect of VEGF on the diabetic ischemic limb.

Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a significant cause of lifelong disability, with no available disease-modifying treatments to promote neuroprotection and axon regeneration after injury. Photobiomodulation (PBM) is a promising therapy which has proven effective at restoring lost function after SCI in pre-clinical models. However, the precise mechanism of action is yet to be determined.

Clear cell renal cell carcinoma is a prevalent urological malignancy, imposing substantial burdens on both patients and society. In our study, we used bioinformatics methods to select four putative target genes associated with EMT and prognosis and developed a nomogram model which could accurately predicting 5-year patient survival rates. We further analyzed proteome and single-cell data and selected PLCG2 and TMEM38A for the following experiments.
