Published: October 2021

TAR-DNA-binding protein-43 (TDP-43) is a member of hnRNP family and acts as both RNA and DNA binding regulator, mediating RNA metabolism and transcription regulation in various diseases. Currently, emerging evidence gradually elucidates the crucial role of TDP-43 in human cancers like it is previously widely researched in neurodegeneration diseases. A series of RNA metabolism events, including mRNA alternative splicing, transport, stability, miRNA processing, and ncRNA regulation, are all confirmed to be closely involved in various carcinogenesis and tumor progressions, which are all partially regulated and interacted by TDP-43. Herein we conducted the first overall review about TDP-43 and cancers to systematically summarize the function and precise mechanism of TDP-43 in different human cancers. We hope it would provide basic knowledge and concepts for tumor target therapy and biomarker diagnosis in the future.

Germline inactivating mutations of the SLC25A1 gene contribute to various human disorders, including Velocardiofacial (VCFS), DiGeorge (DGS) syndromes and combined D/L-2-hydroxyglutaric aciduria (D/L-2HGA), a severe systemic disease characterized by the accumulation of 2-hydroxyglutaric acid (2HG). The mechanisms by which SLC25A1 loss leads to these syndromes remain largely unclear. Here, we describe a mouse model of SLC25A1 deficiency that mimics human VCFS/DGS and D/L-2HGA.

Tilapia lake virus (TiLV) disease is highly contagious and causes substantial mortality in tilapia. Currently, no effective treatments or commercial vaccines are available to prevent TiLV infection. In this study, TiLV segment 4 (S4) was cloned into the pET28a(+)vector and transformed into Escherichia coli BL21(DE3).

Lines of evidence have indicated that type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is an independent risk factor for osteoarthritis (OA) progression. However, the study focused on the relationship between T2DM and OA at the transcriptional level remains empty. We downloaded OA- and T2DM-related bulk RNA-sequencing and single-cell RNA sequencing data from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) dataset.

Sponge exhalent metabolites influence coral reef picoplankton dynamics.

Sci Rep

December 2024

Marine Chemistry and Geochemistry, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, Falmouth, USA.

Coral reef sponges efficiently take up particulate and dissolved organic matter (DOM) from the water column and release compounds such as nucleosides, amino acids, and other dissolved metabolites to the surrounding reef via their exhalent seawater, but the influence of this process on reef picoplankton and nutrient processing is relatively unexplored. Here we examined the impact of sponge exhalent on the reef picoplankon community and subsequent alterations to the reef dissolved metabolite pool. We exposed reef picoplankton communities to a sponge exhalent water mixture (Niphates digitalis and Xestospongia muta) or filtered reef seawater (control) in closed, container-based dark incubations.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a severe neurodegenerative disease, and the most common type of dementia, with symptoms of progressive cognitive dysfunction and behavioral impairment. Studying the pathogenesis of AD and exploring new targets for the prevention and treatment of AD is a very worthwhile challenge. Accumulating evidence has highlighted the effects of fatty acid metabolism on AD.
