Objective: To investigate the molecular mechanism of PPARγ impacting the paroxysm of endometriosis.

Methods: Immunohistochemistry, qRT-PCR and Western Blot were used to determine the expression level of PPARγ and MAT2A in Eu, Ec and normal endometrial tissue (control). ESC and NSC were separately isolated. PPARγ was silenced in NSC and was up-regulated in ESC. Rosiglitazone (RSG) were used to incubate with ESC. Proliferation, apoptosis, invasion, and ultrastructure of cells were evaluated in vitro. The combination between PPARγ and the promoters of MAT2A was detected by dual-luciferase reporter assay.

Results: MAT2A was up-regulated and PPARγ was down-regulated in Eu and Ec. The cell viability and the ability of migration and invasion declined greatly after up-regulating the expression of PPARγ or treating with RSG in ESC. Meanwhile, the expression level of MAT2A was significantly inhibited. Plenty of vacuoles and classical morphological changes of apoptotic cells were observed in the ESC with PPARγ over-expressed. The cell viability and the ability of migration and invasion of NSC with PPARγ silenced were promoted greatly. Meanwhile, the expression level of MAT2A was significantly up-regulated.

Conclusion: The paroxysm and development of endometriosis were impacted by over-expressing PPARγ or introducing of RSG by inhibiting the transcription of MAT2A.

A common digestive system cancer with a dismal prognosis and a high death rate globally is breast cancer (BRCA). BRCA recurrence, metastasis, and medication resistance are all significantly impacted by cancer stem cells (CSCs). However, the relationship between CSCs and the tumor microenvironment in BRCA individuals remains unknown, and this information is critically needed.

Leishmania presents a complex life cycle that involves both invertebrate and vertebrate hosts. By regulating gene expression, protein synthesis, and metabolism, the parasite can adapt to various environmental conditions. This regulation occurs mainly at the post-transcriptional level and may involve epitranscriptomic modifications of RNAs.

The developmental competence and epigenetic progression of oocytes gradually become dysregulated with increasing maternal age. However, the mechanisms underlying age-related epigenetic regulation in oocytes remain poorly understood. Zygote arrest proteins 1 and 2 (ZAR1/2) are two maternal factors with partially redundant roles in maintaining oocyte quality, mainly known by regulating mRNA stability.

β-secretase (BACE1) is instrumental in amyloid-β (Aβ) production, with overexpression noted in Alzheimer's disease (AD) neuropathology. The interaction of Aβ with the receptor for advanced glycation endproducts (RAGE) facilitates cerebral uptake of Aβ and exacerbates its neurotoxicity and neuroinflammation, further augmenting BACE1 expression. Given the limitations of previous BACE1 inhibition efforts, the study explores reducing BACE1 expression to mitigate AD pathology.
