Multiple myeloma (MM) is a common hematological malignancy and remains incurable. MiRNA-335 is a classic tumor suppressor, yet its expression pattern and biological role in MM is unclear. The aim of the present study was to determine the expression pattern, biological role, and mechanism of miR-335 in MM. In this study, we found that miR-335 expression was decreased in MM. The promoter of miR-335 was also hypermethylated in MM. It was found that over-expression of miR-335 or 5-azacytidine treatment suppressed migration of MM cells and down-regulated the expression of IGF-1R. MiR-335 thus acts as a metastatic suppressor by targeting IGF-1R in MM. Moreover, aberrant promoter hyper-methylation is critical for miR-335 silencing in MM. We also found that miR-335 assisted in predicting both the prognosis and progression of disease in MM patients. Observations might offer a new complementary diagnostic and therapeutic target in MM.

Background: Fractures are the prevalent traumatic conditions encountered in orthopedic practices. The rising incidence of fractures has emerged as a pressing global health concern. Although the majority of individuals with fractures experience complete recovery of bone structure and function, approximately 10% of those with fractures exhibit delayed fracture healing (DFH).

Objective: Psychosocial and genetic factors are considered to play roles in the etiological mechanisms of major depressive disorder (MDD). The involvement of miRNAs in the etiopathogenesis of depression and childhood traumas is still unclear. This study aims to reveal potential differences in miRNA levels between patients with depression and healthy individuals and assess their connection to childhood traumas.

Next-generation cancer phenomics by deployment of multiple molecular endophenotypes coupled with high-throughput analyses of gene expression offer veritable opportunities for triangulation of discovery findings in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) research. This study reports differentially expressed genes in NSCLC using publicly available datasets (GSE18842 and GSE229253), uncovering 130 common genes that may potentially represent crucial molecular signatures of NSCLC. Additionally, network analyses by GeneMANIA and STRING revealed significant coexpression and interaction patterns among these genes, with four notable hub genes-, , and -identified as pivotal in NSCLC progression.

It has been well validated that chronic psychological stress leads to bone loss, but the underlying mechanism remains unclarified. In this study, we established and analyzed the chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) mice to investigate the miRNA-related pathogenic mechanism involved in psychological stress-induced osteoporosis. Our result found that these CUMS mice exhibited osteoporosis phenotype that is mainly attributed to the abnormal activities of osteoclasts.

Background And Objectives: Melanoma remains a leading cause of skin cancer mortality despite advancements in targeted therapies and immunotherapies. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have emerged as potential biomarkers for cancer prognosis and treatment response. This study aims to analyze survival outcomes according to various miRNA subtypes, assess the association between specific miRNAs and treatment response, and include patient staging to evaluate their prognostic significance.
