Purpose: Glioma is the most common primary intracranial tumor. Owing to the poor prognosis associated with high-grade gliomas, there is an urgent need to identify biomarkers related to prognosis and treatment sensitivity. Here, we analyze the expression of FXYD2 mRNA in gliomas, and explore its clinical prognostic value and significance in this disease.
Methods: Clinical features, FXYD2 mRNA expression levels, and survival data were analyzed for 516 glioma patients from the Chinese Glioma Genome Map Project, 481 from the cancer genome map datbase and 268 from the molecular braintumor database. The expression patterns for FXYD2 mRNA were compared using the chi-square test, and overall survival (OS) of glioma patients was evaluated according to FXYD2 mRNA expression levels. The factors affecting glioma survival were evaluated by Cox univariate and multivariate regression analysis.
Results: FXYD2 mRNA expression was related to the grade of gliomas. The higher the level, the lower the expression. Meanwhile related to the pathological classification of gliomas. Oligodendroglioma, IDH-mutant and 1p/19q-codeleted was higher than Astrocytoma, IDH-mutant, higher than Glioblastoma, IDH-wildtype. Moreover, temozolomide (TMZ) chemotherapy was found to be an independent factor affecting survival in patients with high FXYD2 mRNA expression, but not in patients with low expression.
Conclusion: FXYD2 mRNA expression represents a new independent factor affecting the survival of glioma patients and may serve as an independent prognostic indicator to predict the sensitivity of gliomas to TMZ.

Background: Gallstone disease (GS) is an important risk factor for Gallbladder cancer (GBC). However, the mechanisms of the progression of GS to GBC remain unclear. Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA), modulates DNA/RNA/proteins at epigenetic, pre-transcriptional, transcriptional and posttranscriptional levels, and plays a potential therapeutic role in various diseases.

Chronic pain, whether of inflammatory or neuropathic origin, affects about 18% of the population of developed countries, and most current treatments are only moderately effective and/or cause serious side effects. Therefore, the development of novel therapeutic approaches still represents a major challenge. The Na,K-ATPase modulator FXYD2 is critically required for the maintenance of neuropathic pain in rodents.

Background: A salient effect of addictive drugs is to hijack the dopamine reward system, an evolutionarily conserved driver of goal-directed behavior and learning. Reduced dopamine type 2 receptor availability in the striatum is an important pathophysiological mechanism for addiction that is both consequential and causal for other molecular, cellular, and neuronal network differences etiologic for this disorder. Here, we sought to identify gene expression changes attributable to innate low expression of the gene in the striatum and specific to striatal indirect medium spiny neurons (iMSNs).

is a desert-dwelling animal that has various adaptations to cope with drought. The kidney maintains water and acid-base balance mainly through the vasopressin-regulated water reabsorption pathway and proximal tubular bicarbonate reabsorption pathway. In this study, we compared the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and transcription factors in the kidneys of and to explore the relationship between the DEGs in kidneys and the animals' adaptations.
