Background: We tested the hypothesis that overexpression of cellular-prion-protein in adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (PrPC-ADMSCs) effectively protected the kidney against ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury in rat.
Methods: Part I of cell culture was categorized into A1(ADMSCs)/A2(ADMSCs+p-Cresol)/A3(PrPC in ADMSCs)/A4 (PrPC in ADMSCs+p-Cresol). Part II of cell culture was divided into B1(ADMSCs)/B2[ADMSCs+lipopolysaccharide (LPS)]/B3(PrPC in ADMSCs)/B4(PrPC in ADMSCs+LPS). Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats (n = 50) were equally categorized into groups 1 (sham-operated-control)/2 (IR)/3 (IR+ADMSCs/6.0 × 10 equally divided into bilateral-renal arteries and 6.0 × 10 intravenous administration by 1 h after IR)/4 [IR+PrPC-ADMSCs (identical dosage administered as group 3)]/5 [IR+silencing PRNP -ADMSCs (identical dosage administered as group 3)], and kidneys were harvested post-day 3 IR injury.
Results: Part I results demonstrated that the cell viability at 24/48/72 h, BrdU uptake/number of mitDNA/APT concentration/mitochondrial-cytochrome-C+ cells and the protein expressions of ki67/PrPC at 72 h-cell culturing were significantly higher in PrPC-ADMSCs than in ADMSCs (all < 0.001). The protein expressions of oxidative-stress (NOX-1/NOX2/NOX4/oxidized protein)/mitochondrial-damaged (p22-phox/cytosolic-cytochrome-C)/inflammatory (p-NF-κB/IL-1ß/TNF-α/IL-6)/apoptotic (cleaved caspase-3/cleaved-PARP) biomarkers were lowest in A1/A3 and significantly higher in A2 than in A4 (all < 0.001). Part II result showed that the protein expressions of inflammatory (p-NF-κB/IL-1ß/TNF-α/IL-6)/apoptotic (cleaved caspase-3/cleaved-PARP) biomarkers exhibited an identical pattern of part I among the groups (all < 0.001). The protein expressions of inflammatory (p-NF-κB/IL-1ß/TNF-α/MMP-9)/oxidative-stress (NOX-1/NOX-2/oxidized-protein)/mitochondrial-damaged (cytosolic-cytochrome-C/p22-phox)/apoptotic (cleaved caspase-3/cleaved-PARP/mitochondrial-Bx)/autophagic (beclin-1/ratio of LC3B-II/LC3B-I)/fibrotic (Smad3/TGF-ß) biomarkers and kidney-injury-score/creatinine level were lowest in group 1, highest in group 2, significantly higher in group 5 than in groups 3/4 (all < 0.0001).
Conclusion: PrPC in ADMSCs rejuvenated these cells and played a cardinal role on protecting the kidney against IR injury.

We aimed to explore the protective effects and underlying mechanisms of taurine on retinal cells during acute ocular hypertension (AOH)-induced damage. Retinal morphology, apoptosis, mitochondrial structure, electroretinography, expression of GTP binding protein 3 (GTPBP3), and molecules in the unfolded protein response (UPR) were examined in an AOH mouse model and wild-type (WT) mice with or without intravitreal injection of taurine. For in vitro experiments, the GTPBP3 expression and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress were examined in R28 cell line under hydrogen peroxide (HO)-induced damage or hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R)-induced damage, with or without taurine pretreatment.

Circular RNA (circRNA) can sponge miRNA participate in the tumorigenesis and progression of various cancers. We substantiate for the first time that the fusion circular RNA (F-circRNA) F-circEA1 is involved in driving the echinoderm microtubule associated-protein like 4-anaplastic lymphoma kinase variant 1-positive (EML4-ALK1) lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) progression and the expression of the parental gene EML4-ALK1, molecular mechanisms of F-circEA1 in the EML4-ALK1 LUAD remain unknown. Bioinformatics analysis showed that only miR-4673 can bind to F-circEA1 and bind to EML4-ALK1 3'-UTR to regulate the expression of EML4-ALK1.

Nerves are often overlooked as key components of the tumor microenvironment. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the reciprocal interactions between tumors and nerves remain largely unknown. In this study, we analyzed data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and identified a significant association between DKK1 expression and poor prognosis, as well as a correlation between DKK1 expression and myeloid-derived suppressor cell (MDSC) infiltration in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), two cancer types characterized by pronounced tumor-nerve interactions.

Objective: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a metabolic and endocrine disease that entails dysregulated ovulation, hyperandrogenism, and polycystic ovaries. While Wnt5a has been suggested to play key roles in follicular development and female fertility under normal conditions, its functions in the context of PCOS have yet to be established. This study was thus designed to explore the impact of Wnt5a on ovarian granulosa cell autophagy in PCOS, providing in vitro evidence in support of its role in this setting.
