Background: Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is the most common histological type of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Platinum-based chemotherapy, such as cisplatin chemotherapy, is the cornerstone of treatment for LUAD patients. Nevertheless, cisplatin resistance remains the key obstacle to LUAD treatment, for its mechanism has not been fully elucidated.
Methods: HSD17B6 mRNA expression data were accessed from TCGA-LUAD database and differential expression analysis was performed. Enrichment analysis of HSD17B6 was conducted by GSEA, and its upstream transcription factors were predicted by hTFtarget. mRNA and protein expression levels of HSD17B6 and GATA1 were assayed by qRT-PCR and WB, and the binding relationship between them was verified by chromatin immunoprecipitation assay and dual luciferase reporter assay. Cell viability and IC value of cisplatin-treated cells were measured by cell counting kit-8 assay. Cell cycle was assayed by flow cytometry. DNA damage level and DNA damage marker γ-H2AX expression were assayed by comet assay and western blot, respectively.
Results: HSD17B6 was lowly expressed in LUAD tissues and cells and mainly enriched in homologous recombination and mismatch repair pathways. As cell function experiments revealed, overexpression of HSD17B suppressed malignant phenotypes and cisplatin resistance in LUAD cells through DNA damage. Bioinformatics analysis revealed that GATA1 is the upstream regulator of HSD17B6, which was markedly reduced in LUAD tissues and cells. ChIP and dual luciferase reporter assays ascertained the binding of GATA1 to HSD17B6. Knockdown of GATA1 attenuated the effect of overexpression of HSD17B6 on LUAD cell behaviors and cisplatin resistance.
Conclusion: Transcription factor GATA1 could activate HSD17B6 to inhibit cisplatin resistance in LUAD through DNA damage, suggesting that GATA1/HSD17B6 axis may be a potential therapeutic target for chemotherapy resistance in LUAD patients.

Identifying novel targets for molecular radiosensitization is critical for improving the efficacy of colorectal cancer (CRC) radiotherapy. Alpha-thalassemia/mental retardation X-linked (ATRX), a member of the SWI/SNF-like chromatin remodeling protein family, functions in the maintenance of genomic integrity and the regulation of apoptosis and senescence. However, whether ATRX is directly involved in the radiosensitivity of CRC remains unclear.

Background: Lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC) is a significant health concern, characterized by a lack of specific therapies and limited treatment options for patients in advanced stages. This study aims to identify key molecules of prognostic importance in LUSC and provide an experimental foundation for their potential therapeutic applications.
Methods: Immune-related transcriptome expression analysis was performed on LUSC samples using the NanoString digital gene analysis system to develop a prognostic transcriptomic signature.

The widespread application of quantum dots (QDs) in recent years has raised concerns about potential environmental and human health risks. Although the toxicity of cadmium telluride quantum dots (CdTe QDs) has been partially studied, their effects on stem cells, tissue regeneration, neurodevelopment, and neurobehavioral toxicity remain unclear. This study aimed to investigate the combined toxic effects and mechanisms of CdTe QDs on planarians at the individual, tissue, cellular, and molecular levels.

Nanoceria, or cerium dioxide nanoparticles (CeO NP), are increasingly employed in a number of industrial and commercial applications. Hence, the environmental presence of these nanoparticles is growing progressively, enhancing the global concern on their potential health effects. Recent studies suggest that nanoceria may also have promising biomedical applications particularly in neurodegenerative and brain-related pathologies, but studies addressing their toxicity, and specifically on the nervous system, are still scarce, and their potential adverse effects and action mechanism are not totally understood yet.
