Background: Glioma is one of the most deadly malignant tumors in humans. Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) plays a key role in the occurrence, development and invasion of tumors by regulating oncogenic and tumor suppressor pathways. However, the role and action mechanism of long intergenic non-coding RNA 00707 (LINC00707) in gliomas have not been elucidated. This study aimed to investigate the interaction between LINC00707 and miR-613 as well as its role in gliomas.
Materials And Methods: The expression levels of LINC00707 and miR-613 were detected by qRT-PCR. The chi-square test was used to analyze the correlation between LINC00707 expression and clinicopathological parameters. CCK-8 and colony formation assays were used to detect glioma cell proliferation; and wound healing and transwell assays were used to detect glioma cell migration and invasion. The relationship between LINC00707 and miR-613 was predicted by Starbase, and verified by qRT-PCR and dual luciferase reporter gene assay.
Results: LINC00707 was up-regulated in gliomas. Up-regulated LINC00707 increased the proliferation, migration and invasion of glioma cells, and silenced LINC00707 reduced these abilities. The increase of the expression level of LINC00707 down-regulated miR-613 in glioma cells, while the inhibition of the expression level of LINC00707 up-regulated miR-613 in glioma cells. The high expression of LINC00707 was related to the Karnofsky performance status (KPS) score and WHO staging. LINC00707 could offset the ability of miR-613 to inhibit glioma proliferation and invasion.
Conclusion: LINC00707 promotes proliferation and invasion of glioma cells by sponging miR-613. The regulatory axis of LINC00707/miR-613 provides new insights into the mechanism and treatment of gliomas.

The prevalent tumor-supporting glioblastoma-associated macrophages (GAMs) promote glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) progression and resistance to multiple therapies. Repolarizing GAMs from tumor-supporting to tumor-inhibiting phenotype may troubleshoot. However, sufficient accumulation of drugs at the GBM site is restricted by blood-brain barrier (BBB).

Objectives: Prostate cancer (PCa) is a leading cause of cancer death in men worldwide. Approximately 30% of castrate-resistant PCa becomes refractory to therapy due to neuroendocrine differentiation (NED) that is present in <1% of de-novo tumors. First-in-class imipridone ONC201/TIC10 therapy has shown clinical activity against midline gliomas, neuroendocrine tumors, and PCa.

Limited advancements in managing malignant brain tumors have resulted in poor prognoses for glioblastoma (GBM) patients. Standard treatment involves surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy, which lack specificity and damage healthy brain tissue. Boron-containing compounds, such as boric acid (BA), exhibit diverse biological effects, including anticancer properties.

The primary source of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), now recognized as critical mediators of host health, particularly in the context of neurobiology and cancer development, is the gut microbiota's fermentation of dietary fibers. Recent research highlights the complex influence of SCFAs, such as acetate, propionate, and butyrate, on brain cancer progression. These SCFAs impact immune modulation and the tumor microenvironment, particularly in brain tumors like glioma.

The foremost feature of glioblastoma (GBM), the most frequent malignant brain tumours in adults, is a remarkable degree of intra- and inter-tumour heterogeneity reflecting the coexistence within the tumour bulk of different cell populations displaying distinctive genetic and transcriptomic profiles. GBM with primitive neuronal component (PNC), recently identified by DNA methylation-based classification as a peculiar GBM subtype (GBM-PNC), is a poorly recognized and aggressive GBM variant characterised by nodules containing cells with primitive neuronal differentiation along with conventional GBM areas. In addition, the presence of a PNC component has been also reported in IDH-mutant high-grade gliomas (HGGs), and to a lesser extent to other HGGs, suggesting that regardless from being IDH-mutant or IDH-wildtype, peculiar genetic and/or epigenetic events may contribute to the phenotypic skewing with the emergence of the PNC phenotype.
