Ring1 and YY1 binding protein (RYBP), a new member of the polycomb group protein family, has been reported to play an important role in various biological processes. Recently, more and more studies have demonstrated an implication of RYBP in cancer development. However, the specific role of RYBP in anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) remains unknown. In this study, we investigated for the first time the expression pattern and biological functions of RYBP in ATC. We showed that RYBP was lowly expressed in ATC tissues and cell lines. We also found that overexpression of RYBP inhibited ATC cell proliferation, invasion, and cisplatin resistance. Furthermore, we observed that upregulation of RYBP decreased the phosphorylation of EGFR and ERK1/2 in ATC cells. Taken together, our data indicated that RYBP might be considered as a promising therapeutic target for the treatment of ATC.

Previous studies have suggested that impaired spiral artery remodeling, placental dysfunction, and insufficient trophoblast infiltration are the etiology and pathogenesis of Preeclampsia (PE). Ring 1 and YY1 binding protein (RYBP) has been reported to be associated with trophoblast dysfunction. However, the molecular mechanism of RYBP involved in trophoblasts in the pathogenesis of PE is poorly defined.

RYBP (Ring 1 and YY1 binding protein) has been frequently reported to play an important role during body development, stem cell differentiation, apoptosis and tumorigenesis, but whether RYBP carries out additional functions remains mysterious. Here, we demonstrated that RYBP protein levels elevate with increasing glucose concentration in cell culture medium in human tumorigenic cell lines, but an opposite trend was observed in non-tumorigenic cells. Mechanistic exploration disclosed that glucose inhibits polyubiquitination and proteasomal degradation, leading to RYBP stabilization in tumor cells.

Ring1 and YY‑1 binding protein (RYBP) is a member of the polycomb repressive complex 1 and serves as a transcriptional suppressor via epigenetic modification. RYBP has a tumour‑suppressive role in solid tumours, but its function in colorectal cancer (CRC) remains unknown. The present study evaluated the expression of RYBP using immunohistochemistry in 140 cases of primary CRC and 11 patient‑matched cases of liver metastases.

Ring1 and YY1 Binding Protein (RYBP) is a member of the non-canonical polycomb repressive complex 1 (PRC1), and like other PRC1 members, it is best described as a transcriptional regulator. Previously, we showed that RYBP, along with other PRC1 members, is also involved in the DNA damage response. RYBP inhibits recruitment of breast cancer gene 1(BRCA1) complex to DNA damage sites through its binding to K63-linked ubiquitin chains.

An increasing number of data have shown the pathogenesis of preeclampsia (PE) involves circular RNA (circRNA). The study aims to investigate the function and the potential mechanism of circ_0043610 in PE. The study was performed on two human placental trophoblastic cell lines (JEG-3 and HTR-8/SVneo).
