Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) SEMA3B antisense RNA 1 (head to head) (SEMA3B-AS1) is a recently identified tumor suppressor in gastric cancer. However, its role in glioblastoma (GBM) is unclear. This study was conducted to explore the role of SEMA3B-AS1 in GBM. In this study, the expression of SEMA3B-AS1, cyclin D1 and miR-195 were determined by RT-qPCR. Gene interactions were evaluated by dual-luciferase assay and overexpression experiments. BrdU assay was performed to monitor cell proliferation. We observed downregulation of SEMA3B-AS1 in GBM. The expression of SEMA3B-AS1 was inversely correlated with the expression of cyclin D1 but positively correlated with the expression of miR-195. In GBM cells, overexpression of SEMA3B-AS1 and miR-195 caused reduced expression levels of cyclin D1. MiR-195 inhibitor reduced the effects of overexpression of SEMA3B-AS1 on the expression of cyclin D1. Moreover, overexpression of SEMA3B-AS1 increased the expression levels of miR-195. Cell proliferation data showed that, SEMA3B-AS1 and miR-195 decreased cell proliferation, while overexpression of cyclin D1 increased GBM cell proliferation. In addition, miR-195 inhibitor inhibited the role of overexpression of SEMA3B-AS1 in cancer cell proliferation. Moreover, miR-195 interacted with cyclin D1, but not SEMA3B-AS1. Furthermore, SEMA3B-AS1 decreased the methylation of the promoter region of miR-195. Therefore, we concluded that miR-195 links lncRNA SEMA3B-AS1 and cyclin D1 to regulate the proliferation of GBM cells.

Background: Overdose of acetaminophen (APAP), a commonly used antipyretic analgesic, can lead to severe liver injury and failure. Current treatments are only effective in the early stages of APAP-induced acute liver injury (ALI). Therefore, a detailed examination of the mechanisms involved in liver repair following APAP-induced ALI could provide valuable insights for clinical interventions.

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) generated by oxidative stress have emerged as critical factors in the pathophysiology of malignancies. This study investigated the antioxidant and anticancer properties of zinc (Zn), selenium (Se), and silver (Ag) nanoparticles (NPs) against the A2780 human ovarian cancer cell line. Here, the bioinformatics approach was used to determine the top differentially expressed genes associated with oxidative stress.

Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is a sympathetic neurotransmitter widely distributed in the peripheral and central nervous system, affecting many physiological functions. Consequently, dysregulation of the NPY system contributes to numerous pathological disorders, including stress, obesity, and cancer. The pleiotropic functions of NPY in humans are mediated by G protein-coupled receptors (Y1R, Y2R, Y5R), which activate several signaling pathways and thereby regulate cell growth, differentiation, apoptosis, proliferation, angiogenesis, and metabolism.

As the global population continues to age, understanding the complex role of cellular senescence and its implications in healthy lifespans has gained increasing prominence. Cellular senescence is defined as the irreversible cessation of cell proliferation, accompanied by the secretion of a range of pro-inflammatory factors, collectively termed the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP), in response to various cellular stresses. While the accumulation of senescent cells has been strongly implicated in the aging process and the pathogenesis of age-related diseases owing to their pro-inflammatory properties, recent research has also highlighted their essential roles in processes such as tumour suppression, tissue development, and repair.
