Glioma is one of the most common intracranial malignant tumors worldwide, accounting for 30%-40% of primary brain tumors. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been implicated in cancer malignant progression. Glioma is classified into multiple subtypes, but lncRNA expression pattern in different subtypes are not fully described. Here, we reported that lncRNA-LINC00941 was highly expressed in all glioma subtypes. Overexpression of lncRNA-LINC00941 in U87 cells promoted cellular proliferation and invasiveness, and suppressed apoptosis. Our findings suggest that lncRNA-LINC00941 may function as an oncogenic factor in glioma, and targeting lncRNA-LINC00941 could be developed into a strategy for glioma management.

Analysis of key lncRNA related to Parkinson's disease based on gene co-expression weight networks.

Neurosciences (Riyadh)

January 2025

From the School of Clinical Medicine (Liang, Luo, Jia), Shandong Second Medical University, Weifang, from the Department of Neurology (Liang, Zhao, Lin, Li, Luo, Jia) , Beijing Shijingshan Hospital, Shijingshan Teaching Hospital of Capital Medical University, Beijing, and from the Department of Neurology (Li), Affiliated Hospital of Weifang Medical University, Weifang, China.

Objectives: To identify a key Long chain non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) related to PD and provide a new perspective on the role of LncRNAs in Parkinson's disease (PD) pathophysiology.

Methods: Our study involved analyzing gene chips from the substantia nigra and white blood cells, both normal and PD-inclusive, in the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database, utilizing a weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA). The technique of WGCNA facilitated the examination of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in the substantia nigra and the white blood cells of individuals with PD.

Sepsis is a life-threatening syndrome characterized by organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection. Sepsis-associated acute liver injury (SA-ALI) is a frequent and serious complication of sepsis that considerably impacts both short-term and long-term survival outcomes. In intensive care units (ICUs), the mortality rate of patients with SA-ALI remains high, mostly due to the absence of effective early diagnostic markers and suitable therapeutic strategies.

Diabetic Retinopathy (DR), a leading complication of diabetes mellitus, has long been considered as a microvascular disease of the retina. However, recent evidence suggests that DR is a neurovascular disease, characterized by the degeneration of retinal neural tissue and microvascular abnormalities encompassing ischemia, neovascularization, and blood-retinal barrier breakdown, ultimately leading to blindness. The intricate relationship between the retina and vascular cells constitutes a neurovascular unit, a multi-cellular framework of retinal neurons, glial cells, immune cells, and vascular cells, which facilitates neurovascular coupling, linking neuronal activity to blood flow.

Article Synopsis
  • The study focuses on the role of miR-483-5p in regulating the overexpression of IGF2 and H19, which are linked to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
  • miR-483-5p enhances IGF2 and H19 expression by binding to their enhancer, activating transcription, and promoting new interactions between the enhancer and gene promoters through chromatin loops.
  • The research highlights that MED1 is crucial in this process, influencing both chromatin structure and the aggressive behavior of HCC cells, indicating potential targets for therapeutic interventions.
