Hypertrophic scar (HS), a fibroproliferative disorder caused by abnormal wound healing after skin injury, which is characterized by excessive deposition of extracellular matrix and invasive growth of fibroblasts. Recent studies have shown that some non-coding RNA implicated the formation of HS, but the mechanism remains unclear. In this study, we found that lncRNA TRHDE-AS1 was downregulated in HS tissues and HSFs, and the level of lncRNA TRHDE-AS1 negatively correlated with the level of miR-181a-5p in HS tissue and HSFs. Overexpressed lncRNA TRHDE-AS1 significantly suppressed miR-181a-5p level, while promoted HSFs apoptosis and inhibited HSFs proliferation. Further study shown that PTEN was a direct target of miR-181a-5p, and lncRNA TRHDE-AS1 served as a molecular sponge for miR-181a-5p to regulate the expression of PTEN. Overexpression of PTEN could eliminate lncRNA TRHDE-AS1-mediated proliferation suppression of HSFs. In conclusion, our study suggested that lncRNA TRHDE-AS1/miR-181a-5p/PTEN axis plays an important role in promoting hypertrophic scar formation, which may be effectively used as a therapeutic target for hypertrophic scar treatment.

Propofol has become a microtubule-stabilizing drug for prostate cancer (PC) therapy, but propofol resistance impairs the therapeutic effect. This study aimed to explore the regulatory mechanism of propofol in the pathogenesis of PC through mechanisms involving N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification. The changes in PC cell malignancy were evaluated by means of transwell, cell counting kit 8 (CCK-8), western blotting and tumour xenograft model assays.

Despite advancements in cancer research, the prognostic implications of competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) networks in prostate cancer (PCa) remain incompletely understood. This study aimed to elucidate the prognostic relevance of ceRNA networks in PCa, utilizing a comprehensive bioinformatics approach alongside experimental validation. After searching The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database, RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) data were extracted to identify differentially expressed RNAs (DERs) between 491 PCa samples and 51 normal prostate tissues, following which a comprehensive bioinformatics strategy was implemented to construct a ceRNA network.

Identification of a lncRNA/circRNA-miRNA-mRNA ceRNA Network in Alzheimer's Disease.

J Integr Neurosci

October 2023

Department of Basic Medicine, Hebei North University, 075000 Zhangjiakou, Hebei, China.

Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) occurs in the elderly and pre-elderly, characterized by decline of memory, cognitive dysfunction, impairment of learning capacity, and motor dysfunction. Recently a competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) network has been found to be related to AD progression, but there is still little understanding of the ceRNA regulatory network in AD. This study aims to explore the important regulatory mechanisms of ceRNA regulatory networks containing long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), circular RNAs (circRNAs), microRNAs (miRNAs), and messenger RNAs (mRNAs) in AD.

Expression analysis of PPAR-related lncRNAs in breast cancer.

Pathol Res Pract

November 2023

Department of Pathology, Loghman Hakim Hospital, Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran. Electronic address:

Breast cancer is a genetically heterogeneous disorder associated with dysregulation of several genes. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) is a ligand-dependent transcription factor that is expressed by many tumoral cells such as transformed breast cancer cells. We investigated expressions of nine PPARγ-related lncRNAs, namely KCNIP2-AS1, TRHDE-AS1, FAM13A-AS1, ALDH1A1-AS2, SH3BP5-AS1, HID1-AS1, LINC01140, LIPE-AS1 and ABCA9-AS1 in paired breast cancer samples and non-tumoral tissues.

Article Synopsis
  • Research highlights the increasing importance of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in cancer, specifically noting significant roles for various lncRNAs in glioma development.
  • The study focuses on TRHDE-AS1, revealing its correlation with tumor prognosis and differences in expression across various glioma classification types, suggesting its relevance in glioma pathology.
  • Findings indicate that TRHDE-AS1 may influence synapse-related functions and is linked to key cancer driver genes, as well as the glioma immune microenvironment, positioning it as a potential biomarker for glioma prognosis.
