Long intergenic noncoding RNA 00963 (LINC00963) is located on human chromosome 9q34.11. Aberrantly expressed LINC00963 often exerts oncogenic effects by regulating various cellular processes including proliferation, migration, invasion, EMT, and apoptosis. Overexpressed LINC00963 is associated with cancer clinicopathological features and poor cancer prognosis, and can be used in the diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma. LINC00963 can build a complex ceRNA network by competitively binding to 22 miRNAs in 14 cancers. LINC00963 can also directly regulate four downstream protein-coding genes. Specifically, LINC00963 promotes the transition of prostate cancer from an androgen-dependent mode to an androgen-independent mode by participating in the transactivation of EGFR. LINC00963 can bind EZH2 and inhibit p21 expression, thereby promoting glioma cell proliferation and invasion. In non-small cell lung cancer, LINC00963 can recruit NONO and CRTC, forming a positive feedback loop of LINC00963/NONO/CRTC/CREB/LINC00963, thereby promoting cancer cell metastasis. LINC00963 is involved in the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway, Wnt signaling pathway, AMPK signaling pathway, and MAPK signaling pathway. Furthermore, LINC00963 is associated with drug resistance in oral squamous cell carcinoma (cisplatin and 5-fluorouracil) and gastric cancer (oxaliplatin) and predicts neoadjuvant efficacy of taxane-anthracyclines in breast cancer. This work systematically reviewed the clinical value of abnormal expression of LINC00963 in various tumors, demonstrated the complex molecular mechanism of LINC00963, and provided directions for future related research.

Purpose: Less than 5% of GI stromal tumors (GISTs) are driven by the loss of the succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) complex, resulting in a pervasive DNA hypermethylation pattern that leads to unique clinical features. Advanced SDH-deficient GISTs are usually treated with the same therapies targeting KIT and PDGFRA receptors as those used in metastatic GIST. However, these treatments display less activity in the absence of alternative therapeutic options.

Objective: To explore more and better liquid biopsy markers of exosomal microRNAs (exo-miRNAs) in renal interstitial fibrosis (RIF) and to preliminary investigate the biological functions and signaling pathways involved in these markers.
Materials And Methods: High-throughput miRNA sequencing was performed on blood and urine exo-miRNAs from three RIF patients and three healthy volunteers, and differential expression analysis and bioinformatic processing were performed.
Results: There were 13 differentially expressed exo-miRNA (DEexo-miRNA) between RIF and healthy blood, and 20 DEexo-miRNAs in urine.

The extracellular matrix (ECM) stores signaling molecules and facilitates mechanical and biochemical signaling in cells. However, the influence of biomimetic "rejuvenation" ECM structures on aging- and degeneration-related cellular activities and tissue repair is not well understood. We combined physical extrusion and precise "on-off" alternating cross-linking methods to create anisotropic biomaterial microgels (MicroRod and MicroSphere) and explored how they regulate the cell activities of the nucleus pulposus (NP) and their potential antidegenerative effects on intervertebral discs.

Protein arginine methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5), which catalyzes the symmetric dimethylation of arginine residues on target proteins, plays a critical role in gene expression regulation, RNA processing, and signal transduction. Aberrant PRMT5 activity has been implicated in cancers and other diseases, making it a potential therapeutic target. Here, we report the discovery of a methylthioadenosine (MTA) cooperative PRMT5 inhibitor.

This work established the cytotoxic, antioxidant and anticancer effects of copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) manufactured with fennel extract, especially on non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) as well. CuNPs caused cytotoxicity in a dose-dependent manner for two NSCLC cell lines, A549 and H1650. At 100 μg/ml, CuNPs reduced cell viability to 70% in A549 cells and 65% in H1650 cells.
