Background: MicroRNA-129 (miR-129) is known to promote chemosensitivity of many types of cancer cells. However, the role of miR-129 in acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) is unclear. We predicted that premature miR-129 might interact with circEHBP1, a well-characterized oncogene in bladder cancer, and analyzed the interaction between circEHBP1 and miR-129 in AML.
Methods: Expression of circEHBP1 and miR-129 in AML patients before and after adriamycin (ADR) treatment was determined by RT-qPCR. CircEHBP1 distribution in nuclear and cytoplasm fractions of AML cells was determined using a cellular fractionation assay. The direct interaction of circEHBP1 with premature miR-129 was explored with an RNA-RNA pull-down assay. Finally, the role of circEHBP1 in regulating miR-129 maturation was analyzed in overexpression cells by RT-qPCRs.
Results: Compared to the controls, AML patients exhibited increased circEHBP1 and premature miR-129 levels but decreased mature miR-129 levels. Altered gene expression was more obvious in ADR resistant group than in ADR sensitive group. CircEHBP1 was detected in both nuclear and cytoplasm fractions of AML cells and directly interacted with premature miR-129. CircEHBP1 overexpression increased premature miR-129 level but decreased mature miR-129 level. In AML cells, circEHBP1 suppressed ADR-induced cell apoptosis and attenuated the enhancing effects of miR-129 on cell apoptosis. More importantly, the role of circEHBP1 in regulating cell apoptosis was more obvious in ADR resistance cells.
Conclusion: CircEHBP1 may suppress miR-129 maturation to increase the chemoresistance of cancer cells to ADR in AML.

Primary ovarian insufficiency (POI) is a common condition leading to the pathological decline of ovarian function in women of reproductive age, resulting in amenorrhea, hypogonadism, and infertility. Biochemical premature ovarian insufficiency (bPOI) is an intermediate stage in the pathogenesis of POI in which the fertility of patients has been reduced. Previous studies suggest that granulosa cells (GCs) play an essential role in the pathogenesis of POI, but their pathogenetic mechanisms remain unclear.

Introduction: Patients with kidney failure with replacement therapy (KFRT) suffer from a disproportionately high cardiovascular disease burden. Circulating small non-coding RNAs (c-sncRNAs) have emerged as novel epigenetic regulators and are suggested as novel biomarkers and therapeutic targets for cardiovascular disease; however, little is known about the associations of c-sncRNAs with premature cardiovascular death in KFRT.
Methods: In a pilot case-control study of 50 hemodialysis patients who died of cardiovascular events as cases, and 50 matched hemodialysis controls who remained alive during a median follow-up of 2.

Neonatal sepsis (NS) occurs in neonates within 28 days, especially preterm infants. The dysregulation of miRNAs is widely detected in NS. The study investigated the expression changes and clinical significance of miR-129-5p in NS patients and further explored the regulatory role of miR-129-5p in the LPS-induced inflammatory response in monocytes.
