The prognostic value of forkhead box protein P1 (FOXP1) protein expression in tumors remains controversial. Therefore, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis, searching the PubMed, Embase and Web of Science databases to identify eligible studies. In total, we analyzed 22 articles that examined 9 tumor types and included 2468 patients. Overall, decreased expression of FOXP1 protein was associated with favorable overall survival (OS) in lymphoma patients (HR = 0.38, 95%CI: 0.30-0.48, p < 0.001). In patients with solid tumors, decreased FOXP1 expression correlated with unfavorable OS (HR = 1.82, 95%CI: 1.18-2.83, p = 0.007). However, when FOXP1 protein expression was nuclear, decreased expression was also associated with favorable OS (HR = 0.53, 95%CI: 0.32-0.86, p = 0.011). Furthermore, decreased FOXP1 expression resulted in the best OS in patients with mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphomas (HR = 0.26, 95%CI: 0.11-0.59, p = 0.001), but the worst OS was observed in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients (HR = 3.11, 95%CI: 1.87-5.17, p < 0.001). In addition, decreased FOXP1 expression was significantly correlated with an unfavorable relapse-free survival (RFS) in breast cancer patients (HR = 1.93, 95%CI: 1.33-2.80, p = 0.001).

To investigate the role and mechanism of miR-342 and FOXP1 on hepatocellular carcinoma cells. QRT-PCR was applied to determine the expression of miR-342, FOXP1 and MYCBP in normal hepatocyte cell lines (NHC), hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines (HEK-293 T) and human hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines (HepG2, MHCC97-L, Huh7 and SMMC7721). After knockdown or over-expression of miR-342 and FOXP1 in HepG2 cells respectively, cell proliferation and cell viability were measured using MTT assay and colony formation assay.

Background: The infiltration of macrophages into the lungs is a common characteristic of perivascular inflammation, contributing to vascular remodeling in pulmonary hypertension (PH). Peli1 (pellino E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase 1) plays a critical role in regulating the production of proinflammatory cytokines and the polarization of macrophages in various diseases. However, the role of Peli1 in PH remains to be investigated.

Circular RNA (circRNA) are a unique class of non-coding RNAs characterized by their covalently closed loop structures, which grant them properties such as stability and conservation. Among these, circFOXP1 has been implicated in various diseases, including cancers, respiratory, skeletal, and cardiovascular disorders. This review systematically examines circFOXP1's role in disease progression, highlighting its involvement in critical biological processes, including cell proliferation, invasion, apoptosis, and autophagy.

Up to 40% of patients with diabetes mellitus will develop diabetic kidney disease (DKD), characterized pathologically by the accumulation of extracellular matrix proteins, which leads to the loss of kidney function over time. Our previous studies showed that the pan-protease inhibitor alpha 2-macroglobulin (A2M) is increased in DKD and is a critical regulator of the fibrotic response in glomerular mesangial cells (MC), an initial site of injury during DKD development. How A2M is regulated by high glucose (HG) has not yet been elucidated and is the focus of this investigation.
