Purpose: The objective of this study was to identify seed pathway cross-talks in non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC), and to reveal potential pathological mechanism at molecular level systematically.

Methods: Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between NSCLC and normal controls were identified using quantile- adjusted conditional maximum likelihood (QCML) method. Subsequently, differential pathways (DPs) enriched by DEGs were determined according to the Ingenuity Pathways Analysis )IPA) pathways and Fisher's exact test. A discriminating score )DS) was computed for each pair of DPs also called as cross-talk, and random forest )RF) algorithm was implemented to investigated hub cross-talks. Finally, global cross-talks with repeated times > 5 were calculated by Monte Carlo Cross-Validation )MCCV). By taking intersections between hub cross-talks and global crosstalks, we obtained seed cross-talks.

Results: We obtained 122 DEGs and 5 DPs between NSCLC samples and normal controls. Based on DS and RF algorithm, 5 hub cross-talks with best area under the curve )AUC) were identified, of which Agranulocyte Adhesion and Diapedesis, and IL-17A Signaling in Fibroblasts were the best with AUC=0.996. After intersected with global cross-talks, we gained 2 seed cross-talks (Agranulocyte Adhesion and Diapedesis, Granulocyte Adhesion and Diapedesis and Agranulocyte Adhesion and Diapedesis, Glutathione Redox Reactions I).

Conclusions: Two seed cross-talks were identified and validated by MCCV, which may give insights for revealing pathological mechanism and potential biomarkers for target therapy in NSCLC.

Moringa leaves provide numerous health benefits due to their anti-inflammatory properties. This study presents the first evidence that endothelial cell inflammation can potentially be ameliorated by moringa leaf extract. Here, we established an experimental human blood vessel cell model of inflammation using EA.

  • Birch pollen (BP) exposure leads to significant changes in gene expression and cytokine levels in allergic individuals compared to non-allergic individuals, indicating distinct biological responses.
  • RNA sequencing identified 160 genes activated in allergic participants, with specific pathways related to inflammation and immune response being enriched in their nasal secretions.
  • The findings suggest that BP allergy triggers unique signaling mechanisms in predisposed individuals, providing insights for future research into allergy treatments.

C-terminal Src kinase (Csk) targets Src family kinases (SFKs) and thereby inactivates them. We have previously shown that Csk binds to phosphorylated tyrosine 685 of VE-cadherin, an adhesion molecule of major importance for the regulation of endothelial junctions. This tyrosine residue is an SFK target, and its mutation (VE-cadherin-Y685F) inhibits the induction of vascular permeability in various inflammation models.

Crossing the vascular endothelium is a necessary stage for circulating cells aiming to reach distant organs. Leukocyte passage through the endothelium, known as transmigration, is a multistep process during which immune cells adhere to the vascular wall, migrate and crawl along the endothelium until they reach their exit site. Similarly, circulating tumor cells (CTCs), which originate from the primary tumor or reseed from early metastatic sites, disseminate using the blood circulation and also must cross the endothelial barrier to set new colonies in distant organs.

As an indispensable inflammatory mediator during sepsis, granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) facilitates neutrophil production by activating G-CSFR. However, little is known about the role of intracellular downstream signalling pathways in the induction of inflammation. To explore the functions of molecules in regulating G-CSFR signalling, RNA sequencing and integrated proteomic and phosphoproteomic analyses were conducted to predict the differentially expressed molecules in modulating the inflammatory response after G-CSFR expression was either up- or downregulated, in addition to the confirmation of their biological function by diverse experimental methods.
