AI Article Synopsis

  • Gastric cancer (GC) is a widespread and deadly cancer, with long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) playing a role in its development.
  • MALAT1 is a well-researched lncRNA that influences gene expression, contributing to cancer progression by interacting with microRNAs and proteins.
  • The review discusses MALAT1's molecular mechanisms in GC and explores its potential as a biomarker, especially for use in non-invasive liquid biopsies.

Article Abstract

Gastric cancer (GC) remains among the most common cancers worldwide with a high mortality-to-incidence ratio. Accumulated evidence suggests that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are involved in gastric carcinogenesis. These transcripts are longer than 200 nucleotides and modulate gene expression at multiple molecular levels, inducing or inhibiting biological processes and diseases. Metastasis-associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1 (MALAT1) is one of the best-studied lncRNAs with comprehensive actions contributing to cancer progression. This lncRNA regulates gene expression at the transcriptional and posttranscriptional levels through interactions with microRNAs and proteins. In the present review, we discussed the molecular mechanism of MALAT1 and summarized the current knowledge of its expression in GC. Moreover, we highlighted the potential use of MALAT1 as a biomarker, including liquid biopsy.

Metastasis-associated in colon cancer-1 (MACC1) was identified as a new player in lung cancer development, and some stemness-related genes can be novel transcriptional targets of MACC1. Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are responsible for sustaining tumorigenesis and plasticity. Both CSCs and non-CSCs are plastic and capable of undergoing phenotypic transition, especially the dedifferentiation of non-CSCs switch to CSC-like cells.

Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common cardiac arrhythmia associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Rapid electrical stimulation (RES) of atrial fibroblasts plays a crucial role in AF pathogenesis, but the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unclear. This study investigates the regulatory axis involving MALAT1, miR-499a-5p, and SOX6 in human cardiac fibroblasts from adult atria (HCF-aa) under RES conditions.

Metastasis-associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1 (MALAT1), is a long non-coding RNA localized in the cell nucleus, known for its multifunctional roles, including potential involvement in spermatogenesis. This study investigates the mechanism by which MALAT1 dysregulation contributes to the pathogenesis of idiopathic non-obstructive azoospermia (iNOA). We analyzed MALAT1 levels in two gene expression profiling datasets comprising patients with obstructive azoospermia (OA) who have normal spermatogenesis and 13 patients with iNOA.

Purpose: To explore the expressions and functions of lncRNAs in the pathogenesis of pathologic myopia complicated with cataract (PMC).

Methods: The anterior capsular tissues were collected from patients with age-related cataract (ARC) and PMC. One group of the samples was used to detected by whole-transcriptome sequencing (LC-Bio, Hangzhou, China) and investigated by GO and KEGG enrichment analysis.

Electronic address:

Objective: Resveratrol (Res) is a promising anticancer drug against hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), but whether its anti-HCC effects implicate mitophagy remains unclear. Therefore, we aimed to explore the specific role of Res in mitophagy and the related mechanisms during the treatment of HCC.

Methods: HepG2 cells and tumor-grafted nude mice were used to investigate the effects of low-, middle- and high-dose of Res on HCC progression and mitophagy in vitro and in vivo, respectively.
