The present study examines the relationship between circular RNA (circRNA) derived from three genes of the family a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs (ADAMTSs): , and and the host gene expression in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with regard to various clinical factors. Notably, an association was identified between expression and specific circRNA molecules, as well as certain expression patterns of and its derived circRNA that were specific to histopathological subtypes. The survival analysis demonstrated that a lower expression in squamous cell carcinoma was associated with extended survival. Furthermore, the higher expression was linked to prolonged survival, while the overexpression of was correlated with a shorter survival. These findings suggest that circRNA molecules may serve as potential diagnostic or prognostic biomarkers for NSCLC, highlighting the importance of considering molecular patterns in distinct cancer subtypes.

Diabetes is a chronic metabolic disease that is endemic worldwide and is characterized by persistent hyperglycemia accompanied by multiple severe complications, including cardiovascular disease, kidney dysfunction, neuropathy, and retinopathy. The pathogenesis of diabetes mellitus and its complications is multifactorial, involving various molecular and cellular pathways. In recent years, research has indicated that mechanisms of cell death play a significant role in the advancement of diabetes and its complications.

Background: Circular RNAs (circRNAs) play multifaceted roles to precisely control expression of broad gene networks. These highly stable molecules are often accumulated in the mammalian brain and thought to serve as "memory molecules" that govern the long process of aging. Mounting evidence demonstrated circRNA dysregulation in the postmortem brains of Alzheimer's disease (AD).

Metabolic reprogramming fuels cancer cell metastasis and remodels the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME). We report here that circPETH, a circular RNA (circRNA) transported via extracellular vesicles (EVs) from tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells, facilitates glycolysis and metastasis in recipient HCC cells. Mechanistically, circPETH-147aa, encoded by circPETH in an m6A-driven manner, promotes PKM2-catalyzed ALDOA-S36 phosphorylation via the MEG pocket.

Infertility is a prevalent problem among 10% of people within their reproductive years. Sometimes, even advanced treatment options like assisted reproduction technology have the potential to result in failed implantation. Because of the expected changes in gene expression during both in vitro and in vivo fertilization processes, these methods of assisting fertility have also been associated with undesirable pregnancy outcomes related to infertility.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are classified as small, non-coding RNAs that play crucial roles in diverse biological processes, including cellular development, differentiation, growth, and metabolism. MiRNAs regulate gene expression by recognizing complementary sequences within messenger RNA (mRNA) molecules. Recent studies have revealed that miR-145-5p functions as a tumor suppressor in several cancers, including lung, liver, and breast cancers.
