Background: Recent studies have revealed that serpin peptidase inhibitor clade E member 2 (SERPINE2) is associated with tumorigenesis. However, SERPINE2 expression and its role in lung adenocarcinomas are still unknown.
Methods: The expression levels of SERPINE2 in 74 consecutively resected lung adenocarcinomas were analyzed by using immunostaining. Inhibition of SERPINE2 expression by small interfering RNA (siRNA) was detected by quantitative PCR. Cell number assays and cell apoptosis assays were performed to clarify the cell-autonomous function of SERPINE2 in A549 and PC9 lung cancer cells.
Results: The overall survival of patients with high SERPINE2 expression was significantly worse than that of patients with low SERPINE2 expression (P = 0.0172). Multivariate analysis revealed that SERPINE2 expression was an independent factor associated with poor prognosis (P = 0.03237). The interference of SERPINE2 decreased cell number and increased apoptosis in A549 and PC9 cells CONCLUSION: These results suggest that SERPINE2 can be used as a novel prognostic marker of lung adenocarcinoma.

Background: Epigenetic modifications have been proved to play important roles in the spinal degenerative diseases. As a type of noncoding RNA, the microRNA (miRNA) is a vital class of regulatory factor in the epigenetic modifications, while the role of miRNAs in the regulation of epigenetic modifications in ligamentum flavum hypertrophy (LFH) has not been fully investigated.
Methods: The miRNA sequencing analysis was used to explore the change of miRNA expression during the fibrosis of ligamentum flavum (LF) cells caused by the TGF-β1 (10 ng/ml).

Article Synopsis
- This study focuses on understanding how synovial cells and chondrocytes interact in osteoarthritis (OA), aiming to clarify their roles in OA development.
- Using single-cell sequencing, researchers analyzed the characteristics of synovial fibroblasts and their interactions with chondrocytes, revealing significant correlations between these cell types in both damaged and healthy cartilage.
- The findings indicated that some genes in synovial fibroblasts promote chondrocyte health, while others contribute to chondrocyte degradation and inflammation, highlighting a complex balance that affects OA progression.

Background: Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is one of the main causes of end-stage renal disease (ESRD), but its mechanism has not been clearly studied. We utilized integrative transcriptome analysis to explore the pathogenesis of DN.
Methods: We conducted an analysis by combining bulk dataset and single-cell transcriptome dataset.

Article Synopsis
- Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis features an unbalanced fibrinolytic system, with Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) showing both anti-fibrotic and pro-fibrotic tendencies depending on the organ.
- This study explored how curcumin influences tissue remodeling related to PAI-1 in lung fibrosis, utilizing both in vitro (NIH3T3 fibroblasts) and in vivo (C57BL/6 mice) approaches.
- Results indicated that curcumin treatment inhibited the elevated expression of collagen, fibronectin, MMP-2, and MMP-9, ultimately reducing pulmonary fibrosis and preventing thickening of the alveolar septum.
