Purpose: To investigate the molecular mechanism of LncRNA NEAT1 regulating proliferation, migration and invasion of tongue squamous cell carcinoma cells by regulating miR-339-5p/ITGA3 axis.
Methods: qRT-PCR and Western blot were used to detect the expression of NEAT1, miR-339-5p, ITGA3 mRNA and ITGA3 protein in 25 cases of human tongue squamous cell carcinoma, its corresponding adjacent tissues, human normal oral mucosal cell line HOK and human tongue squamous cell carcinoma cell lines TSCCA, CAL27, SCC15 and HN13. CAL27 cell lines that inhibited NEAT1 and overexpressed miR-339-5p were constructed, respectively. Cell viability was detected by MTT assay, cell numbers of migration and invasion were detected by Transwell assay, and the expression of Cyclin D1 and MMP-9 proteins were detected by Western blotting. The dual luciferase reporter gene was used to verify the targeting relationship of NEAT1, miR-339-5p and ITGA3, and the regulatory relationship was detected by Western blotting and qRT-PCR. SPSS 17.0 software package was used for statistical analysis of the data.
Results: Compared with normal human oral mucosal cell line HOK, the expression of NEAT1 and ITGA3 was up-regulated, while the expression of miR-339-5p was down-regulated in human tongue squamous cell carcinoma cell lines. Inhibition of NEAT1 or over-expression of miR-339-5p significantly inhibited proliferation, migration and invasion of CAL27 cells, and significantly inhibited expression of Cyclin D1 and MMP-9 proteins. Dual luciferase reporter gene assay confirmed that NEAT1 directly interacted with miR-339-5p and suppressed its expression. miR-339-5p negatively regulated ITGA3 expression. Inhibition of NEAT1 reversed the inhibitory effect of the inhibition of miR-339-5p on proliferation, migration and invasion of CAL27 cells.
Conclusions: LncRNA NEAT1 promotes proliferation, migration and invasion of tongue squamous cell carcinoma cells by down-regulating miR-339-5p/ITGA3 axis.

Studies have shown that circRNAs play an important regulatory role in trophoblast function and embryonic development. Based on sequencing and functional experiments, we found that hsa_circ_0069443 can regulate the function of trophoblast cells, and its presence is found in the exosomes secreted by trophoblast cells. It is known that exosomes mediate the interaction between the uterus and embryo, which is crucial for successful pregnancy.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most prevalent malignant tumors in the world, and its occurrence and development are closely related to the complex immune regulatory mechanisms. As the first barrier of the body's defense, innate immunity plays a key role in tumor immune surveillance and anti-tumor response, in which type I/III interferon (IFN) is an important mediator with significant antiviral and anti-tumor functions. 5-methylcytosine (m5C) modification of RNA is a key epigenetic regulation that promotes the expression of CRC oncogenes and immune-related genes.

Background: Bladder cancer (BCa) is one of the most common malignancies worldwide, and its prognostication and treatment remains challenging. The fast growth of various cancer cells requires reprogramming of its energy metabolism using aerobic glycolysis as a major energy source. However, the prognostic and therapeutic value of glycolysis-related genes in BCa remains to be determined.

Exosomes, small extracellular vesicles secreted by various cells, play crucial roles in the pathogenesis and treatment of oral diseases. Recent studies have highlighted their involvement in orthodontics, periodontitis, oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), and hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD). Exosomes have a positive effect on the inflammatory environment of the oral cavity, remodeling and regeneration of oral tissues, and offer promising therapeutic options for bone and periodontal tissue restoration.

Unlabelled: Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) have been shown to play a crucial role in the progression of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Exosomes derived from CAFs have emerged as important mediators of intercellular communication in the tumor microenvironment, contributing to cancer progression. Therefore, it is essential to further investigate the mechanisms by which CAF-derived exosomes regulate NSCLC.
