No biomarker can effectively screen for early gastric cancer (EGC). Players in the A disintegrin and metalloproteinase (ADAM)-natural killer group 2 member D (NKG2D) receptor axis may have a role for that. As a proof-of-concept pilot study, the expression of ADAM8, ADAM9, ADAM10, ADAM12, ADAM17, and major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I chain-related sequence A (MICA), a ligand for NKG2D, in gastric cancer was investigated in silico using The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database.

Triple-negative breast cancer, a subtype of breast cancer, is characterized by a poor prognosis. Recent studies have shown that miRNA30b acts as an oncogene and is vital for the proliferation of malignancies across various systems. This study aimed to elucidate the impact of miRNA30b on the proliferation, migration, and invasion capabilities of breast cancer cells .

Genes Related to Motility in an Ionizing Radiation and Estrogen Breast Cancer Model.

Biology (Basel)

October 2024

Instituto de Alta Investigación, Universidad de Tarapacá, Arica 1000000, Chile.

Article Synopsis
  • Breast cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths among women, influenced by environmental radiation and hormonal factors, with cell motility playing a key role in its development and spread.
  • Research on an experimental breast cancer model exposed to radiation and estrogen revealed increased gene expression related to cell motility in irradiated cells compared to controls and malignant lines.
  • An analysis of patient data indicated that certain genes associated with motility showed varying expression levels in normal versus tumor tissues, highlighting their potential impact on patient survival and therapy options based on hormone receptor status.

Pulmonary fibrosis, including systemic sclerosis-associated interstitial lung disease (SSc-ILD), involves myofibroblasts and SPP1 macrophages as drivers of fibrosis. Single-cell RNA sequencing has delineated fibroblast and macrophages transcriptomes, but limited insight into transcriptional control of profibrotic gene programs. To address this challenge, we analyzed multiomic snATAC/snRNA-seq on explanted SSc-ILD and donor control lungs.

Electronic address:

Article Synopsis
  • Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease that current treatments struggle to effectively manage, prompting research to identify new biomarkers and therapeutic targets using advanced genetic analysis techniques.
  • The study utilized Mendelian randomization and single-cell analysis on large datasets to pinpoint 14 significant drug targets, classifying them into three tiers based on the strength of their association with periodontitis.
  • Results indicated that certain targets showed varying levels of evidence, with some (like TEK and SPP1) posing potential side effects, and further analysis revealed specific enrichment of target genes in immune cells, suggesting their roles in the disease.
