miR-655-3p functions as a tumor suppressor in tumor metastases; however, its role and mechanism in regulating cell migration and invasion of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remain unclear. Here, we found that miR-655-3p expression was markedly decreased in the NSCLC cell lines A549, NCI-H1650, PC14/b, NCI-H1299, and HPAEpiC compared to levels observed in normal human lung fibroblasts. miR-655-3p overexpression significantly inhibited migration and invasion of A549 and PC14/b cells, and pituitary tumor-transforming 1 (PTTG1) expression was up-regulated in the NSCLC cells. Luciferase reporter assay indicated that PTTG1 was a direct target of miR-655-3p. Additionally, PTTG1 overexpression alleviated the inhibitory effect of miR-655-3p on migration and invasion abilities in A549 and PC14/b cells. In conclusion, miR-655-3p inhibits NSCLC migration and invasion by targeting PTTG1, suggesting that miR-655-3p may serve as a therapeutic target to provide a new approach for the clinical treatment of NSCLC.

Introduction: Osteosarcoma (OS), a prevalent metastatic cancer among young individuals, is associated with a grim prognosis. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), including C1QTNF1-AS1, are pivotal regulators of cancer cell proliferation and motility. As an oncogene, C1QTNF1-AS1 is implicated in various tumor types, such as colorectal, pancreatic, hepatocellular carcinomas, and OS.

Increasing evidence suggests that aberrant alternative splicing plays crucial roles in tumorigenesis. However, the function of EZH2 splice variants as well as the mechanism by which EZH2 alternative splicing occurs in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remain elusive. Here, we analyzed both our own and published transcriptomic data, obtaining 19 splice variants of EZH2 in addition to canonical full-length EZH2-A in HCC.

Fat mass and obesity-associated protein (FTO) was the earliest discovered m6A RNA demethylase. Previous studies have indicated that m6A modifications significantly influence the development, progression, and prognosis of various cancers. This study aimed to explore the role of FTO overexpression in colorectal cancer development, as well as its biological functions.

Breast carcinoma is one of the most common causes of cancer-related mortality among women worldwide. The primary objective of the present study was to eva-luate the expression of the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT)-related markers Lin28, MUC1, and lipocalin-2 in invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC) and to investigate their correlation with clinicopathological characteristics and patient survival. This prospective cohort study included 120 classic ILC cases investigated for immunohistochemical expressions of Lin28, MUC1, and lipocalin-2 and followed them for five years or until death.

Gastric cancer (GC) is a malignant tumor with high morbidity and mortality rates worldwide. This study aimed to investigate the effects and mechanisms of action of didymin, a dietary flavonoid glycoside, on GC treatment. Human GC cell lines Hs-746T and AGS were used to assess the effects of didymin on cell viability, cell proliferation, and cell cycle.
