Background: Nuptial pads, a typical sexually dimorphic trait in anurans, are located on the first digit of the male forelimb in Rana chensinensis and exhibit morphological changes synchronized with breeding cycles. However, the genetic mechanisms underlying its formation and seasonal changes remain poorly understood.

Results: To identify genes and biological processes associated with the development and seasonal variations of nuptial pads, we conducted a comprehensive transcriptome analysis on nuptial pads and hind toe skin across both sexes at different breeding periods in R.

AKR1C3 mediates gastric cancer cell invasion and metastasis via the AKT and JNK/p-NF-κB signaling pathways.

Sci Rep

December 2024

Department of Gastroenterology and Fujian Institute of Digestive Disease, Fujian Medical University Union Hospital, 29 Xinquan Road, Fuzhou, 350001, Fujian, China.

Article Synopsis
  • * The study highlights the downregulation of AKR1C3 in GC tissues, which is associated with a more aggressive cancer phenotype and poorer patient prognosis.
  • * AKR1C3 shows potential as a tumor suppressor by inhibiting cell invasion and metastasis through interference with the p-JNK pathway, suggesting its value as a diagnostic and prognostic marker for gastric cancer treatment.
