Doublesex and Mab-3 related Transcription Factor 3 (DMRT3) is associated with the prognosis of some tumors. It is possible to explore the role of DMRT3 in the cancer process using bioinformatic approaches and experimental validation. We comprehensively explored the clinical and immunological characteristics of DMRT3. The DMRT3 expression is abnormal in human cancers and correlates with clinical staging. A high DMRT3 expression is significantly associated with poor overall survival (OS) in KIRC, KIRP, LUAD, and UCEC. Amplification was the greatest frequency of the DMRT3 alterations in pan-cancer. The OS was significantly lower in the DMRT3 altered group than in the DMRT3 unaltered group (P = 0.0276). The DMRT3 expression was significantly associated with MSI in three cancer types and TMB in six cancer types. The DMRT3 expression was significantly correlated with the level of the immune cell infiltration and the immune checkpoint genes. The DMRT3 was involved in some pathways in pan-cancer. DMRT3 may play a role in chemotherapy and may be associated with chemoresistance. A ceRNA network of KCNQ1OT1/miR-335-5p/DMRT3 was constructed in LUAD. DMRT3 was significantly upregulated in the LUAD cell lines. DMRT3 was aberrantly expressed in pan-cancer and may promote tumorigenesis and progression via different mechanisms. DMRT3 can be used as a therapeutic target to treat cancer in humans.

Article Synopsis
  • Chakouyi (CKY) horses from the Qinghai‒Xizang Plateau are specifically noted for their unique gaits and adaptations to high altitudes, but the genetic reasons behind these traits are still not well understood.
  • A study analyzed the genomes of CKY horses and other horse breeds, finding CKY horses genetically closer to other highland breeds and showing signs of reduced genetic diversity and lower inbreeding, likely due to selective pressures.
  • The research identified a key mutation in the DMRT3 gene linked to CKY's lateral gaits and highlighted the importance of the EPAS1 and CAT genes for high-altitude resilience, suggesting that preserving genetic diversity is crucial for maintaining these unique traits in CKY horses

Background: Colorectal cancer is a common condition with an uncommon burden of disease, heterogeneity in manifestation, and no definitive treatment in the advanced stages. Renewed efforts to unravel the genetic drivers of colorectal cancer progression are paramount. Early-stage detection contributes to the success of cancer therapy and increases the likelihood of a favorable prognosis.

The mud crab (Scylla paramamosain) is a commercially significant marine decapod crustacean. Due to its obvious sexual dimorphism, the mechanism of sex differentiation and gonadal development has attracted significant research interest. The Dmrt (double-sex and mab-3 related transcription factor) genes are vital in animal gonadal development and sex differentiation.
