Intravenous (i.v.) immunization of mice with irradiated (2000 rads) allogeneic lymphoid cells induces the generation of suppressor T cells. Such suppressor T cells can suppress the anti-host delayed type hypersensitivity (DTH) by other T cells during acute Graft-versus-Host reactions in irradiated recipient mice. Suppression of anti-host DTH is detectable at least 50 days after i.v. induction of the state of suppression in the donors. The generation of suppressor T cells in the donors is associated with proliferation. Furthermore, the suppressor T cells need to proliferate further in the irradiated allogeneic hosts in order to display a maximal suppressive effect. Two types of suppressor T cells were found to be required for suppression of the anti-host DTH response: a Lyt-1+2- cell population and a Lyt-1-2+ cell population.

Leukemia covers a broad category of cancer malignancies that specifically affect bone marrow and blood cells. While different kinds of leukemia have been identified, effective treatments are still lacking for most forms, and even those treatments considered effective can lead to relapses. MicroRNAs, or miRNAs, are short endogenous non-coding single-stranded RNAs that help control the epigenetics of gene expression.

Delayed wound closure is a significant hallmark associated with diabetes. A previous study from our laboratory identified decreased levels of Dicer and miRNAs together with altered levels of wound healing genes in the wounded tissues of diabetic rats. Comprehensive regulators of these wound healing genes mapped onto the PRC2 (polycomb repressive complex 2) complex.

The CDKN2A gene, responsible for encoding the tumor suppressors p16(INK4A) and p14(ARF), is frequently inactivated in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Herein, an uncharacterized long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) (ENSG00000267053) on chromosome 19p13.12 was found to be overexpressed in NSCLC cells with an active, wild-type CDKN2A gene.

Introduction: In recent years, there has been a rise in the incidence of renal cell carcinoma (RCC), with metastatic RCC being a prevalent and significant contributor to mortality. While a regulatory role for microRNAs (miRNAs) in the development and progression of RCC has been recognized, their precise functions, molecular mechanisms, and potential clinical implications remain inadequately elucidated. Hence, this study aimed to explore the role of miR-507 in RCC and identify STEAP3 as a downstream target of miR-507.

The tumor microenvironment (TME) is integral to cancer progression, impacting metastasis and treatment response. It consists of diverse cell types, extracellular matrix components, and signaling molecules that interact to promote tumor growth and therapeutic resistance. Elucidating the intricate interactions between cancer cells and the TME is crucial in understanding cancer progression and therapeutic challenges.
