Article Abstract

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been wildly verified to modulate multiple tumorigenesis, especially nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). In present study, we aim to investigate the role of lncRNA FOXD2-AS1 in the NPC carcinogenesis. It was indicated that FOXD2-AS1 was markedly increased in NPC tissues and cells in comparison to their corresponding controls. Moreover, the aberrant overexpression of FOXD2-AS1 indicated the poor prognosis of NPC patients. Silence of FOXD2-AS1 was able to repress NPC cell growth in vitro while overexpression of FOXD2-AS1 inversed this process. Moreover, in vivo tumor xenografts were established using CNE-1/SUNE-1 cells to investigate the function of FOXD2-AS1 in NSCLC tumorigenesis. Rescue assay was performed to further confirm that FOXD2-AS1 contributed to NPC progression by regulating miR-363-5p/S100A1 signal pathway. Taken together, our study discovered the oncogenic role of FOXD2-AS1 in clinical specimens and cellular experiments, showing the potential FOXD2-AS1/miR-363-5p/S100A1 pathway. This results and findings provide a novel insight for NPC tumorigenesis.

Background/aim: Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) represents the most common type of renal cancer. When resectable, nephrectomy is the only radical treatment for ccRCC, however metastasis is already present at 30% of the patient population. Although great progress has been made in the field of targeted therapy with the emergence of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) the cure of metastatic ccRCC (mccRCC) remains far from achieved.

Article Synopsis
  • The study examined the role of lncRNA FOXD2-AS1 in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC), revealing its high expression in cancer and its potential as a therapeutic target.
  • Researchers identified that FOXD2-AS1 promotes ccRCC cell proliferation, migration, and invasion by upregulating EGLN3 expression through the recruitment of MYC to the EGLN3 promoter.
  • Both in vitro and in vivo experiments confirmed the FOXD2-AS1/MYC/EGLN3 regulatory axis, indicating its significant influence on the progression of ccRCC, which may aid in improving prognostic strategies for patients.

It is urgent to develop new therapeutic strategies for ovarian cancer (OC). Long-noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have participated in multiple biological processes including tumor recurrence and progression. This study aimed to determine the effects and potential regulatory mechanism of lncRNA FOXD2-AS1 in OC progression.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the underlying genetic factors of alopecia areata (AA) by analyzing gene expression differences between AA patients and healthy controls, identifying 173 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and constructing a regulatory network involving mRNAs, miRNAs, and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs).
  • A total of 24 hub genes were highlighted, with five being upregulated and linked to specific miRNAs; this includes a focus on the regulatory relationship between CD8A, mir-185-5p, and FOXD2-AS1 that may play a role in the pathogenesis of AA.
  • The findings suggest that CD8A and FOXD2-AS1 could serve

LncRNA is a major factor in the occurrence and development of many diseases. However, its mechanism in cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury (CIRI) is yet unknown. In this study, the transcriptional level and methylation modification level of LncRNAs before and after mechanical thrombectomy were compared by high-throughput sequencing.
