Objective: To construct a PA28γ overexpression cell line and determine its effects after infecting an oral squa-mous cell carcinoma (OSCC) cell line.
Methods: The PA28γ gene was cloned into the pLOV.CMV.cherry.2A.EF1a.PuroR lentiviral vector by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and PCR and DNA sequencing alignment analysis were used for identification. Then, 293T cells were used to package viral diseases. Infected OSCC cells were used to construct a cell line with stable PA28γ overexpression. Finally, the level of PA28γ expression in the OSCC cell line was detected through Western blot.
Results: The successful construction of PA28γ recombinant lentiviral vectors was confirmed by DNA sequencing. The results of immunofluorescence showed that the PA28γ overexpression lentivirus successfully infected the OSCC cells and showed cherry red fluorescence. The results of Western blot demonstrated that the constructed cells with stable PA28γ overexpression significantly increased the expression of PA28γ.
Conclusions: The PA28γ overexpression lentiviral vector can significantly increase its protein expression in OSCC cells. We provide a stable OSCC cell line for further study on the effect of PA28γ in OSCC.

Dihydromyricetin (Dih), a naturally occurring flavonoid, has been identified to exert a protective effect against ischemia/reperfusion injury. However, the detailed mechanisms remain unclear. Here we investigated the biological role of Dih in preventing hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) injury in cardiomyocytes.

This study indicated that the CCHC-type zinc finger protein PbrZFP719 involves into self-incompatibility by affecting the levels of reactive oxygen species and cellulose content at the tips of pollen tubes. S-RNase-based self-incompatibility (SI) facilitates cross-pollination and prevents self-pollination, which in turn increases the costs associated with artificial pollination in fruit crops. Self S-RNase exerts its inhibitory effects on pollen tube growth by altering cell structures and components, including reactive oxygen species (ROS) level and cellulose content.

CAR T-cell therapy has achieved remarkable clinical success in treating hematological malignancies. However, its clinical efficacy in solid tumors is less satisfactory, partially due to poor in vivo expansion and limited persistence of CAR-T cells. Here, we demonstrated that the overexpression of glucocorticoid-induced tumor necrosis factor receptor-related protein ligand (GITRL) enhances the anti-tumor activity of CAR-T cells.

Background: Fibrosis of the connective tissue in the vaginal wall predominates in pelvic organ prolapse (POP), which is characterized by excessive fibroblast-to-myofibroblast differentiation and abnormal deposition of the extracellular matrix (ECM). Our study aimed to investigate the effect of ECM stiffness on vaginal fibroblasts and to explore the role of methyltransferase 3 (METTL3) in the development of POP.
Methods: Polyacrylamide hydrogels were applied to create an ECM microenvironment with variable stiffness to evaluate the effects of ECM stiffness on the proliferation, differentiation, and expression of ECM components in vaginal fibroblasts.

Background: Vocal fold leukoplakia (VFL), a precancerous lesion of the larynx, is characterized by white plaques on the vocal fold mucous membrane. Currently, there are no reliable biomarkers to predict the recurrence and malignant transformation of VFL. Considering chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan 4 (CSPG4) as a biomarker for malignant tumors such as laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC), we conducted this cohort study to evaluate the prognostic influence of CSPG4 expression on VFL patients.
