Esophageal cancer (ESCA) is a malignant tumor of the upper gastrointestinal tract, with a high mortality rate and poor prognosis. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play a role in the malignant progression of tumors by regulating autophagy. This study is aimed at establishing a prognostic model of autophagy-related lncRNAs in ESCA and provide a theoretical basis to determine potential therapeutic targets for ESCA. The transcriptome expression profiles were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). We identified autophagy-related mRNAs and lncRNAs in ESCA using differential expression analysis and the Human Autophagy Database (HADb). Four differentially expressed autophagy-related lncRNAs with a prognostic value were identified using Cox regression and survival analyses. Furthermore, the combination of the selected lncRNAs was able to predict the prognosis of patients with ESCA more accurately than any of the four lncRNAs individually. Finally, we constructed a coexpression network of autophagy-related mRNAs and lncRNAs. This study showed that autophagy-related lncRNAs play an important role in the occurrence and development of ESCA and could become a new target for the diagnosis and treatment of this disease.

Background: Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is still a threaten to human health due to its high occurrence and poor prognosis. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in bone marrow microenvironment (BMM) play a critical role in the development of AML. This study elucidated the interaction between MSCs and AML cells and its underlying mechanism.

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the role of the autophagy-related long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) MIR210HG in hepatocellular carcinoma and its potential as a therapeutic target.
Methods: LncRNA MIR210HG expression and its correlation with survival outcomes in hepatocellular carcinoma patients were analyzed using data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression analyses were conducted to assess survival correlations.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), the most common primary liver cancer, is marked by a high mortality rate, with the misregulation of long non-coding RNAs (LncRNAs) playing a key role in its development. Here, we studied the role of LINC02987 in HCC. We employed bioinformatics tools to identify LncRNAs and miRNAs that exhibit differential expression in HCC.

Background: Coronary artery disease (CAD) has become a dominant economic and health burden worldwide, and the role of autophagy in CAD requires further clarification. In this study, we comprehensively revealed the association between autophagy flux and CAD from multiple hierarchies. We explored autophagy-associated long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) and the mechanisms underlying oxidative stress-induced human coronary artery endothelial cells (HCAECs) injury.

Background: Long noncoding RNA, LINC01106 exhibits high expression in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) tumor tissues, but its functional role and regulatory mechanism in LUAD cells remain unclear.
Methods: LINC01106 expression was analyzed in LUAD tissues and its functional impact on LUAD cells was assessed. LUAD cells were silenced with sh-LINC01106 and injected into nude mice to investigate tumor growth.
