Despite a number of studies have emphasized the extensive role of microRNA (miRNA) in the development of multiple cancers, the role of miR-30a-5p in the progression of osteosarcoma (OS) and the underlying mechanism are still limited. We detected the expression level of MiR-30a-5p and forkhead box D1 (FOXD1) in Clinical OS specimens and found that miR-30a-5p was significantly decreased while FOXD1 was markedly increased. Dual luciferase assay confirmed that FOXD1 was directly regulated by miR-30a-5p. In vitro assay showed that inhibitior of FOXD1 suppressed cell proliferation, migration and invasion in MG63 and U2OS cells, while overexpression of FOXD1 promoted OS cell proliferation and migration. In vivo assay further showed the inhibition of tumor growth after knockdown of FOXD1. These results suggested that FOXD1 might play key roles in OS development and progression, and was negatively regulated by miR-30a-5p in OS.

Many lines of evidence suggest that circular RNAs (circRNAs) are closely associated with the occurrence and progression of colon cancer. The objective of this study was to investigate the regulatory effects and mechanisms of circ_0075829 on ferroptosis and immune escape in colon cancer. We utilized colon cancer cell lines and a xenograft mouse model to analyze the function of circ_0075829 in vitro and in vivo.

MTHFD2 is highly overexpressed in breast cancer tissues, indicating that it might be used as a target in breast cancer treatment. This study aims to determine the role of MTHFD2 in breast cancer cell proliferation and the molecular pathways involved. In order to investigate MTHFD2 gene expression and its downstream pathways in breast cancer, we started our inquiry with a bioinformatics analysis.

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a highly aggressive subtype of breast malignancy. Although some patients benefit from immune checkpoint therapy, current treatment methods rely mainly on chemotherapy. It is imperative to develop predictors of efficacy and identify individuals who will be sensitive to particular treatment regimens.
