LncRNA growth arrest special 5 (GAS5) and microRNA-106b (miR-106b) have been reported to be involved in the regulation of gliomas. However, their precise mechanisms in regulating the progression and development of gliomas remain unclear. We aimed to investigate the interaction between GAS5 and miR-106b, and their influence on the proliferation, migration, and invasion of gliomas cells. Western blotting and qRT-PCR were applied for measuring expression of protein and mRNA, respectively. The proliferation, migration, and invasion of cells were measured by MTT, wound healing, and transwell assays, respectively. Dual luciferase reporter assay was applied for confirming the binding site between miR-106b and GAS5, miR-106b and PTEN. Significant higher expression of miR-106b, and lower expression of GAS5 and PTEN in the glioma tissues were observed. The binding sites between GAS5 and miR-106b, miR-106b and PTEN were identified. GAS5 could regulate the expression of PTEN through targeting miR-106b, and further influence EMT process, and the proliferation, migration, and invasion of gliomas cells. Meanwhile, PTEN could remarkably inhibited the proliferation, migration and invasion of glioma cells. The influence of PTEN on glioma cells and EMT was similar to GAS5. GAS5 could regulate the EMT process, and the migration of gliomas cells through miR-106b targeting PTEN. Therefore, our findings may provide a new thought for the study of pathogenesis and treatment of glioma.

Center of Gene Sequencing, Shanxi Bethune Hospital, Shanxi Academy of Medical Sciences, Tongji Shanxi Hospital, Third Hospital of Shanxi Medical University, Taiyuan, P. R. China.

FBXW7 is a tumor suppressor gene that regulates metabolism and is associated with the onset and progression of colorectal cancer (CRC)), however, the precise mechanism whereby FBXW7 participates in the metabolic reprogramming of CRC remains unclear. Here, the research aims to reveal the association between the expression of FBXW7 and clinical variables and to investigate the molecular mechanism by which FBXW7 plays a critical role in the development of CRC. The clinical importance of FBXW7 in CRC was determined by immunohistochemistry.

Trophoblast glycoprotein (TPBG) plays a significant part in the growth of specific cancers, yet its connection to gastric cancer (GC) remains uncertain. This research seeks to analyse the fluctuation in TPBG levels in GC and evaluate how TPBG expression relates to the prognosis of GC patients. TPBG expression in GC and normal gastric tissues was investigated in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) database, further extracting the immunohistochemistry images from HPA database and validating by Western blot.
