Background: Long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) long intergenic non-protein-coding RNA, p53-induced transcript (LINC-PINT) has shown a crucial role in cancer cells. However, its function in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is unclear.

Methods: The expression levels of LINC-PINT and miR-767-5p in AML patients were measured through quantitative real-time PCR. The interaction between miR-767-5p and LINC-PINT or suppressor of zeste 12 (SUZ12) was verified by RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) assay and luciferase reporter assay. SUZ12-mediated JAK/STAT signaling pathway was further confirmed using western blotting and immunoprecipitation. Cell proliferation, cell cycle distribution, and apoptosis were evaluated by CCK-8 and flow cytometry. Tumor formation was examined by a nude mice model in vivo.

Results: The low expression of LINC-PINT was significantly related to ELN risk stratification (p = 0.028). Ectopic expression of LINC-PINT restrained the proliferation and cell cycle G1/S transition and promoted apoptosis in AML cell lines (THP-1 and HL-60). LINC-PINT overexpression curbed tumor growth. LINC-PINT positively regulated SUZ12 by functioning as a sponge of miR-767-5p. There was a negative correlation between miR-767-5p and LINC-PINT in AML (r = -0.3316, p = 0.0336). Co-expression of miR-767-5p reversed the impacts of LINC-PINT on AML cells. MiR-767-5p enhanced the aggressiveness of AML, which was counteracted by overexpression of SUZ12. Additionally, SUZ12 downregulated HDAC1 to reduce STAT3 phosphorylation and acetylation in AML cells.

Conclusions: Overall, LINC-PINT serves as a tumor suppressor in AML through the miR-767-5p/SUZ12-mediated JAK/STAT signaling pathway, presenting a potential therapeutic target for AML.

While immunotherapy has shown some efficacy in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) patients, many respond only partially or not at all. One limitation in improving outcomes is the lack of a complete understanding of immune checkpoint regulation. Here, we investigated a possible link between an environmental chemical receptor implicated in lung cancer and immune regulation, the AhR, a known but counterintuitive mediator of immunosuppression (interferon (IFN)-γ), and regulation of two immune checkpoints (PD-L1 and IDO).

The development of standard drugs for some unusual cancers, including estrogen-nonresponsive breast cancer, is somewhat difficult within a very short time. So, considering the current situation, phytoestrogen may be a potential candidate for unraveling chemotherapeutics agents. The reason for this review article is to manifest overall information regarding the effects of phytoestrogen on triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), along with its related cellular and molecular pathways in different TNBC models.

Secondary hair follicles (SHFs) in cashmere goats produce high-value cashmere fibers, which cyclic regulation is critical for optimizing cashmere yield and quality. This study explores the phenotypic changes and differential protein expression profiles involved in the telogen-to-anagen transition of SHFs. Through histological observations, proteomic analyses, and immunohistochemical validation, we identified key molecular features and regulatory pathways underlying SHF cyclic renewal.

Background: Exercise improves insulin sensitivity and lipid metabolism while the mechanisms remain unclear. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been linked to the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and served as a potential therapeutic target. The study aimed to explore how aerobic exercise prevents chronic inflammation and insulin resistance (IR) in skeletal muscle.

Moscatilin, a biphenyl compound derived from Dendrobium nobile, exhibits significant anti-tumor activity. However, the specific role of moscatilin in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) and its underlying molecular mechanisms have not been fully studied. This study aims to fill this gap by demonstrating through a series of experiments that moscatilin can effectively inhibit the proliferation and migration of ccRCC and induce its apoptosis process.
