Background: It was reported that long-noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) had been identified as a novel class of regulators related to various cancers. RPARP-AS1, a differentially-expressed gene, was found in analysis of the gene expression profile of CRC from GEO database. However, its function has not been clear.
Methods: RPARP-AS1 expression was determined by qPCR and Startbase3 analysis. Knockdown of RPARP-AS1 in CRC cell lines was performed by RNAi technology, named si-RPARP-AS1 HCT116 and si-RPARP-AS1 LoVo. Cell proliferation was examined by CCK8 and colony formation assay. RNA pull-down and Luciferase reporter assay were performed to confirm the interaction between RPARP-AS1 and miR-125a-5p.
Results: In the study, we found that the expression of RPARP-AS1 was significantly up-regulated in CRC tissues and multiple CRC cell lines, which was closely related to poor prognosis of CRC patients. Loss-of-function studies indicated that knockdown of RPARP-AS1 inhibited CRC cell proliferation, migration and invasion in HCT116 and LoVo cell lines. Results of research on the mechanisms showed that RPARP-AS1 functioned as a competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) to sponge miR-125a-5p, therefore promoting CRC procession.
Conclusion: In summary, these results indicated that RPARP-AS1/miR-125a-5p axis played a positive role in promoting cell proliferation, migration and invasion in CC. It may be as a biomarker used to evaluate CRC prognosis.

Umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stromal/stem cells (UC-MSCs) present low immunogenicity and potent immunomodulatory effects for treating various diseases. Human UC-MSCs are a heterogeneous population consisting of three main subpopulations with different cell shapes, proliferation rates, differentiation abilities, and immune regulatory functions. Previously, BAMBIMFGE8 UC-MSCs, the first subgroup successfully isolated from UC-MSCs were found to fail to alleviate lupus nephritis.

Only a few human ovarian endometrioid carcinoma cell lines are currently available, partly due to the difficulty of establishing cell lines from low-grade cancers. Here, using a cell immortalization strategy consisting of i) inactivation of the p16-pRb pathway by constitutive expression of mutant cyclin-dependent kinase 4 (R24C) (CDK4) and cyclin D1, and ii) acquisition of telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) activity, we established a human ovarian endometrioid carcinoma cell line from a 46-year-old Japanese woman. That line, designated JFE-21, has proliferated continuously for over 6 months with a doubling time of ~ 55 h.

Purpose: To investigate whether in diabetic cataract (DC), FoxO1 regulates high glucose (HG)-induced activation of NLRC4/IL-6 inflammatory mediators in human lens epithelial cells (SRA01/04) via the JAK1/STAT1 pathway, leading to cataract formation.
Methods: Expression levels of FoxO1, inflammatory factor IL-6 and inflammatory vesicle NLRC4 were examined in SRA01/04 under high glucose (HG) stress at 25-150 mM. Rat lenses were also cultured using HG medium with or without the addition of the FoxO1 inhibitor AS1842856 and the JAK1 agonist RO8191.
