miR-101 is downregulated in various types of cancer, leading to the notion that miR-101 acts as a suppressor in cancer cell progression. The comprehensive mechanisms underlying the effects of miR-101 and the exact role of miR-101 dysregulations in esophagogastric tumors have not been fully elucidated. This review aims to summarize all current knowledge on the association between miR-101 expression and esophagogastric malignancies and to clarify the pathogenetic pathways and the possible prognostic and therapeutic role of miR-101 in those cancer types. miR-101 seems to play crucial role in esophageal and gastric cancer biology and tumorigenesis. It could also be a promising novel diagnostic and therapeutic target, as well as it may serve as a significant predictive biomarker in esophagogastric cancer.

The role of transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) is dual, such that, it inhibits tumor development in initial stage and promotes metastasis in later stage. The present study is aimed to analyse the relevance of different types of TGF-β and their receptors on the overall survival (OS) and TGF-β driven gene expression in individuals with cervical cancer (CC) using ONCODB and GEPIA databases. The in-silico gene expression analysis showed, TGF-β1 and TGFβR2 are upregulated in cells infected with human papilloma virus (HPV)16, whereas, TGF-β2, TGFβR1 and TGFβR3 expression were downregulated.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short RNA molecules, typically 21-25 nucleotides long, synthesized within eukaryotic cells. They play a crucial role in coordinating complex gene expression regulatory networks. The miRNAs are involved in post-transcriptional regulation, either by degrading target mRNA or suppressing their transcription, thereby influencing protein translation.

Article Synopsis
- - The study investigates the role of miR-101-3p in the proliferation of orbital fibroblasts in thyroid eye disease (TED) and seeks to identify its targets, particularly focusing on pentraxin-3 (PTX3).
- - Research methods involved harvesting orbital adipose tissues from TED patients and control subjects, followed by various assays to assess fibroblast proliferation and apoptosis after manipulating miR-101-3p levels.
- - Results showed that miR-101-3p is downregulated in TED, and its overexpression inhibits fibroblast proliferation by targeting PTX3, enhancing understanding of TED's pathological mechanisms.
Article Synopsis
- - CKD is marked by fibrosis and inflammation in the kidneys, with a particular focus on a type of cell death called PANoptosis, which involves interactions among various programmed cell death pathways, although its role in CKD is not fully understood.
- - Researchers utilized bioinformatics to analyze gene expressions from a specific dataset, identifying 57 PANoptosis-related genes and selecting nine crucial hub genes, which were further validated using additional datasets and experimental techniques.
- - Key findings include two hub genes, FOS and PTGS2, potentially linked to the progression of PANoptosis-related CKD, along with a common miRNA and three transcription factors that may influence this process; a drug-gene network revealed several drugs that target these hub genes

Shell color is an important economic trait and one of the target traits in breeding and production. Non-coding RNA (ncRNA) refers to RNA molecules transcribed from the genome and do not encoding proteins, which can regulate the expression of target genes after transcription and participate in the regulation of many important traits, such as the formation of shell color and body color. In this study, we detected the porphyrins in the shells of three Manila clams with different shell colors, explored the expression pattern and function of Uroporphyrinogen III synthetase (UROS) in the shell color pigmentation of Ruditapes philippinarum, and found that it might be involved in the synthesis of porphyrins and potentially in the synthesis of melanin.
