Inhibition of aerobic glycolysis is a hopeful method for cancer treatment. In this study, we aimed to explore LINC00665/miR-214-3p/MAPK1 role in regulating cell viability and aerobic glycolysis in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The expressions of LINC00665 in 50 paired HCC tissues and normal tissues were determined by qRT-PCR. Pearson analysis was applied to evaluate the association between the expression levels of miR-214-3p, LINC00665, and MAPK1 in HCC tissues. The interactions between miR-214-3p and LINC00665 or MAPK1 were determined by luciferase reporter assay and RNA immunoprecipitation. CCK-8 and colony formation assays were used for cell viability evaluation. Lactate production, glucose consumption, and ATP levels were measured to assess Warburg effect. The results showed that LINC00665 was overexpressed in HCC, which positively associated with MAPK1 level and negatively associated with miR-214-3p level in HCC tissues. Overexpression of LINC00665 led to significant enhancements in cell viability and colony formation, whereas this effect was weakened when miR-214-3p was overexpressed or MAPK1 was downregulated. In addition, deletion of LINC00665 expression repressed tumor formation . Mechanically, LINC00665 increased MAPK1 expression through binding to miR-214-3p. Collectively, this study revealed that LINC00665 accelerated cell growth and Warburg effect through sponging miR-214-3p to increase MAPK1 expression in HCC.

Rationale: ROS proto-oncogene 1 (ROS1) fusion is a rare but important driver mutation in non-small cell lung cancer, which usually shows significant sensitivity to small molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitors. With the widespread application of next-generation sequencing (NGS), more fusions and co-mutations of ROS1 have been discovered. Non-muscle myosin heavy chain 9 (MYH9) is a rare fusion partner of ROS1 gene as reported.

Background: In patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) following sorafenib failure, regorafenib has been used as an initial second-line drug. It is unclear the real efficacy and safety of sorafenib-regorafenib sequential therapy compared to placebo or other treatment (cabozantinib or nivolumab or placebo) in advanced HCC.

T-helper 17 (Th17) cells significantly influence the onset and advancement of malignancies. This study endeavor focused on delineating molecular classifications and developing a prognostic signature grounded in Th17 cell differentiation-related genes (TCDRGs) using machine learning algorithms in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). A consensus clustering approach was applied to The Cancer Genome Atlas-HNSCC cohort based on TCDRGs, followed by an examination of differential gene expression using the limma package.

Pollen germination and pollen tube (PT) growth are extremely sensitive to high temperatures. During heat stress (HS), global translation shuts down and favors the maintenance of the essential cellular proteome for cell viability and protection against protein misfolding. Here, we demonstrate that under normal conditions, the Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) eukaryotic translation initiation factor subunit eif3m1/eif3m2 double mutant exhibits poor pollen germination, loss of PT integrity and an increased rate of aborted seeds.

The growth and survival of cells with different fitness, such as those with a proliferative advantage or a deleterious mutation, is controlled through cell competition. During development, cell competition enables healthy cells to eliminate less fit cells that could jeopardize tissue integrity, and facilitates the elimination of pre-malignant cells by healthy cells as a surveillance mechanism to prevent oncogenesis. Malignant cells also benefit from cell competition to promote their expansion.
