Background: Fatty acid synthase (FASN) is a lipogenic enzyme that participates in tumor progression. We previously showed that FASN is dysregulated in OS malignancy, but the molecular mechanism(s) of these effects remained unclear.
Methods: We examined differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) in FASN-silenced osteosarcoma 143B cells and their parental cells by isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ). Differentially expressed proteins were classified using GO and KEGG analysis. The association between FASN and heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein A1 (HNRNPA1) was confirmed using qPCR, Western blot, and immunohistochemistry. The function of HNRNPA1 in osteosarcoma was determined using CCK-8, colony formation, wound healing, transwell migration, and invasion assays.
Results: Among the 4971 identified proteins, 567 DEPs (325 upregulated and 242 downregulated) were identified. The top 10 upregulated proteins comprised HIST1H2AB, INA, INTS5, MTCH2, EIF1, MAPK1IP1L, PXK, RPS27, PM20D2, and ZNF800, while the top 10 downregulated proteins comprised NDRG1, CNTLN, STON2, GDF7, HECTD3, HBB, TPM1, PPP4R4, PTTG1IP, and PLCB3. Bioinformatic analysis indicated that the DEPs were related to cellular processes, metabolic processes, biological regulation, binding, and catalytic activity. HNRNPA1 was dysregulated in FASN-silenced 143B and HOS cells. qPCR, Western blot, and immunohistochemistry showed that FASN expression positively correlates with HNRNPA1 expression. Further studies indicated that HNRNPA1 correlates with OS diagnosis and prognosis. And HNRNPA1 silence inhibits the proliferation, migration, and invasion in OS cells.
Conclusion: HNRNPA1 acts as targets downstream of FASN and potential biomarker and oncogene in OS.

Fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLS) are key cells promoting cartilage damage and bone loss in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). They are activated to assume an invasive and migratory phenotype. While mechanisms of FLS activation are unknown, evidence suggests that pre-damaged extracellular matrix (ECM) of the cartilage can trigger FLS activation.

Endometrial cancer (EC) is a common gynecological malignancy for which polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) has been identified as a significant risk factor. Quercetin, a widely distributed natural flavonoid, has demonstrated potential therapeutic effects in managing both PCOS and EC. However, the specific molecular targets of quercetin in the context of PCOS comorbid with EC (PCOS-EC) remain poorly defined.

Lipid imaging mass spectrometry (LIMS) allows for establishing the bidimensional distribution of lipid species within a tissue section. One of the main advantages is the generation of spatial information on lipid species distribution at a spatial (lateral) resolution bordering on single-cell resolution with no need to isolate cells. Thus, LIMS images demonstrate, with a level of detail never described before, that lipid profiles are highly sensitive to cell type and pathophysiological state.

Prokaryotes (Bacteria and Archaea) encode a highly diversified arsenal of defence systems that protect them against mobile genetic elements, such as phages and plasmids. In turn, mobile genetic elements encode anti-defence systems that allow them to escape the activity of these defence systems. This has resulted in an evolutionary arms race in which defence systems and anti-defence systems evolve and adapt continuously, driving intriguing innovation and enormous diversification on both sides.

Background: The causal relationship between PM (particulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter ≤2.5 μm) and common mental disorders, along with its neuropathological mechanisms, remains unclear.
Methods: We used genome-wide association study datasets from the UK Biobank and Psychiatric Genomics Consortium to systematically investigate the causal relationship between PM and nine common psychiatric disorders using two-sample Mendelian randomization (TSMR) methods.
