Cervical cancer (CC) patients have a poor prognosis and a low 1-year survival rate due to recurrence or pelvic metastasis. The GSE9750 dataset was analyzed to identify hub genes in CC. CCK-8, colony formation assay, EdU, TUNEL, Transwell assays, and western blot analysis for apoptosis-associated markers were conducted to examine CC cell malignant phenotype after different lentiviral vector treatments. Dual-luciferase assay, ChIP, and MSP were used for regulatory assays. P53-regulated apoptosis-inducing protein 1 (TP53AIP1) was lowly expressed in CC tissues and cell lines, and TP53AIP1 overexpression repressed proliferation, migration, and invasion, and induced apoptosis of CC cells by activating the p53 signaling. DNMT3A bound to the TP53AIP1 promoter and transcriptionally repressed TP53AIP1 expression. DNA-methyltransferase 3A (DNMT3A) silencing inhibited CC development and lung metastasis in vivo, but further TP53AIP1 knockdown reversed this phenomenon by disrupting p53-mediated apoptosis. In summary, DNMT3A transcriptionally repressed TP53AIP1 expression to promote CC progression and metastasis.

Breast cancer ranks the first in the incidence of female cancer and is the most common cancer threatening the life and health of women worldwide.Tumor protein p53-regulated apoptosis-inducing protein 1 (TP53AIP1) is a pro-apoptotic gene downstream of p53. However, the role of TP53AIP1 in BC needs to be investigated.

Background: Breast cancer (BC) ranks as the most prevalent malignancy affecting women globally, with apoptosis playing a pivotal role in its pathological progression. Despite the crucial role of apoptosis in BC development, there is limited research exploring the relationship between BC prognosis and apoptosis-related genes (ARGs). Therefore, this study aimed to establish a BC-specific risk model centered on apoptosis-related factors, presenting a novel approach for predicting prognosis and immune responses in BC patients.

Background: Early screening is the most effective way to control breast cancer. Due to the lack of accurate biomarkers, early diagnosis of breast cancer is still very difficult. Therefore, it is necessary to discover new candidate genes of breast cancer and improve the early diagnosis and prognosis.

Approximately 25% of all cases of ovarian cancer (OVCA) cases are associated with inherited risk. However, accurate risk assessment is limited by the presence of variants of unknown significance (VUS). Previously, we performed whole-exome sequencing on 48 OVCA patients with familial predisposition, yet negative for pathogenic BRCA1/2 mutations.
