Gallbladder cancer (GBC) is a malignant tumors that develops insidiously and rapidly. In this work, we explored the function of long non-coding RNA plasmacytoma variant translocation 1 (lncRNA PVT1) in modulating GBC development. PVT1 and miR-30d-5p expression were detected by real-time fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). The relationship of PVT1 and miR-30d-5p was analyzed by Dual luciferase activity and Spearman correlation analysis. The effect of PVT1 on GBC progression was detected by cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) and Transwell assay. In GBC tissues and cell lines, upregulation of PVT1 and downregulation of miR-30d-5p were observed. PVT1 silencing suppressed cell proliferation and invasion of GBC cells. Based on the analysis of Dual luciferase activity and Spearman correlation, miR-30d-5p was confirmed as a target of PVT1, and their expression had a negative correlation in GBC tissues. Additionally, miR-30d-5p inhibitor could reverse the effects of PVT1 knockdown. These data demonstrated that PVT1 facilitated to GBC tumorigenesis by promoting cell proliferation and invasion via miR-30d-5p, indicating that PVT1 may be a potential biomarker of GBC diagnosis and treatment.

Objective: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a reproductive endocrine disease characterized by reproductive dysfunction and metabolic abnormalities. The purpose of this study was to explore the expression characteristics of coding and non-coding RNAs in granulosa cells of PCOS, and to provide data support for understanding the pathogenesis of PCOS.

Methods: Three patients with PCOS (according to the 2003 Rotterdam diagnostic criteria) and three normal controls were selected.

Ischemic stroke is a serious cerebrovascular disease, highlighting the urgent need for reliable biomarkers for early diagnosis. Recent reports suggest that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) can be potential biomarkers for ischemic stroke. Therefore, our study seeks to investigate the potential diagnostic value of lncRNAs for ischemic stroke by analyzing existing research.

Background: Digestive system malignancies, including esophageal carcinoma (ESCA), stomach adenocarcinoma (STAD), liver hepatocellular carcinoma (LIHC), and colon adenocarcinoma (COAD), pose significant global health challenges. Identifying shared and distinct regulatory mechanisms across these cancers can lead to improved therapies. This study aims to construct and compare competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) networks across ESCA, STAD, LIHC, and COAD to identify RNA biomarkers that could serve as precision therapeutic targets to enhance clinical outcomes and advance personalized cancer care.

Background: Acoustic cavitation is a foundational mechanism in ultrasound therapy, primarily through inertial cavitation resulting from microbubble collapse. Sonodynamic therapy, with inertial acoustic cavitation threshold and low-dose radiation in the presence of sensitizers, may provide significant effects for cancer treatment, potentially overcoming resistance encountered with single therapies.

Methods: MCF7 breast cancer cells were subjected to sonodynamic therapy either alone or combined with ionizing radiation, gold nanoparticles coated with apigenin, and methylene blue.
