Introduction: This study aimed to explore the biological functions of in lung adenocarcinoma and investigate the interaction between and miR-338-3p.
Material And Methods: Sixty-one differentially expressed genes in lung adenocarcinoma and adjacent normal tissues were first analyzed by TCGA. Immunohistochemistry and quantitative reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR) were further utilized to confirm aberrant expression in tumor tissues. The influences of on proliferation, invasion and migration, and apoptosis of lung adenocarcinoma were investigated by clone formation assay and MTT assay, transwell assay, and flow cytometry analysis respectively. TargetScan and miRanda databases predicted the binding sites of miRNAs on 3'-UTR and structure changes were validated by RNA folding form. The target relationship between miR-338-3p and was confirmed by the dual-luciferase reporter system. Disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) curves were generated with Kaplan-Meier plotter according to the TCGA data and the correlation among expression, miR-338-3p expression and prognosis was also analyzed.
Results: was upregulated in lung adenocarcinoma tissues and cells (all < 0.01), and negatively correlated with prognosis outcomes of patients (both < 0.05). High expression of promoted proliferation, invasion and migration of cancer cells, and inhibited cell apoptosis (all < 0.05). MiR-338-3p could directly bind to the 3'-UTR of and showed most significant suppression on expression among four predicted miRNAs (all < 0.01). Additionally, miR-338-3p could suppress in lung adenocarcinoma, improving prognosis (all < 0.05).
Conclusions: acts as a tumor promoter in lung adenocarcinoma development. Upregulation of MiR-338-3p could suppress expression in lung cancer cells and contribute to a better prognosis.

Background: Circular RNAs play an important role in regulating lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). Bioinformatics analysis identified circ_0015278 as differentially expressed in LUAD. However, the biological mechanism of circ_0015278 in LUAD has not been fully clarified, especially in ferroptosis.

To investigate the potential mechanisms underlying neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) confer ferroptosis resistance and CD8(+) T cell inhibition in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). By the intravenous injection of LLC cells into the tail vein, a LUAD mouse model was created. Phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA) stimulated neutrophils to facilitate NETs formation and combined with NETs inhibitor DNase I to explore NETs mechanism on LLC cell proliferation, migration, ferroptosis resistance, and CD8(+) T cell activity.

Human carbonic anhydrase IX (CAIX) plays a key role in maintaining pH homeostasis of malignant neoplasms, thus creating a favorable microenvironment for the growth, invasion, and metastasis of tumor cells. Recent studies have established that inhibition of CAIX expressed on the surface of tumor cells significantly increases the efficacy of classical chemotherapeutic agents and makes it possible to suppress the resistance of tumor cells to chemotherapy, as well as to increase their sensitivity to drugs (in particular, to reduce the required dose of cytostatic agents). In this work, we studied the ability of new CAIX inhibitors based on substituted 1,2,4-oxadiazole-containing primary aromatic sulfonamides, to potentiate the cytostatic effect of gefitinib (selective inhibitor of epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase domain) under hypoxic conditions.

Activation of the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathways is vital in regulating cell growth, differentiation, apoptosis, and stress response, significantly affecting tumorigenesis and cancer progression. We developed a bioinformatic technique to construct an interactome network-based molecular pathways for genes of interest and quantify their activation levels using high-throughput gene expression data. This study is focused on the p38α, p38β, p38γ, and p38δ kinases, examining their activation levels (PALs) based on transcriptomic data and their associations with survival and drug responsiveness across various cancer types.

To investigate the impact of SMARCA4 mutations on the outcomes of patients with advanced lung adenocarcinoma with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations. In the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK) MetTropism study, 960 patients with advanced EGFR-mutated lung adenocarcinoma were screened and included in the MSK cohort, composing of 313 males and 647 females, with a median [(, )] age of 64 (56, 72) years. A retrospective analysis was conducted on the data of 178 patients with advanced EGFR-mutated lung adenocarcinoma who received EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) treatment in the Department of Oncology, the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University, from January 2018 to December 2022.
