Objective: The objective of this study was to screen lymphoma radiotherapy-resistant genes using CRISPR activation (CRISPRa).

Methods: The Human CRISPRa library virus was packaged and then transfected into lymphoma cells to construct an activation library cell line, which was irradiated at the minimum lethal radiation dose to screen radiotherapy-resistant cells. Radiotherapy-resistant cell single-guide RNA (sgRNA) was first amplified by quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) in the coding region and then subject to next-generation sequencing (NGS) and bioinformatics analysis to screen radiotherapy-resistant genes. Certain radiotherapy-resistant genes were then selected to construct activated cell lines transfected with a single gene so as to further verify the relationship between gene expression and radiotherapy resistance.

Results: A total of 16 radiotherapy-resistant genes, namely, , and , were screened based on the NGS results and bioinformatics analysis of the radiotherapy-resistant cells. Activated cell lines transfected with a single gene were constructed using 10 radiotherapy-resistant genes. The qPCR findings showed that, when compared with the control group, the experimental group had significantly up-regulated mRNA expression of , and (p < 0.05). No significant difference in the mRNA expression of or (p > 0.05) was found between the two groups (p > 0.05).

Conclusion: The 16 genes screened are potential lymphoma radiotherapy-resistant genes. It was initially determined that the high expression of 8 genes was associated with lymphoma radiotherapy resistance, and these genes could serve as the potential biomarkers for predicting lymphoma radiotherapy resistance or as new targets for therapy.

Background: Radioresistance is the leading cause of death in advanced cervical cancer (CC). Dysregulation of RNA modification has recently emerged as a regulatory mechanism in radiation and drug resistance. We aimed to explore the biological function and clinical significance of 5-methylcytosine (mC) in cervical cancer radiosensitivity.

Background And Objective: Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is a pernicious tumor with high incidence and mortality rates. The incidence rate of NSCLC increases with age and poses a serious danger to human health. The aim of this study was to determine the mechanism by which (-)-epicatechin (EC) alleviates NSCLC.

Article Synopsis
  • The study looked at how a substance called mogrol affects the treatment of a type of lung cancer called non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) when combined with radiation therapy.
  • Researchers found that mogrol helps make cancer cells more sensitive to radiation, which means the radiation can kill more cancer cells.
  • They discovered that mogrol works by reducing the levels of a protein called USP22, which is linked to cancer growth, by using specific pathways in the cells.

Background: Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is a common malignant tumor with no obvious clinical symptoms in its early stages. Patients can be divided into radiotherapysensitive groups (RS) and radiotherapy-resistant groups (RR) due to their varying conditions. The therapeutic effect of radiotherapy is quite different between the two groups.
