title: Silencing of long non-coding RNA HCP5 inhibits proliferation, invasion, migration, and promotes apoptosis via regulation of miR-299-3p/SMAD5 axis in gastric cancer cells

description: Gastric cancer (GC) is a common malignant gastrointestinal tumor with high mortality. Previous study has reported that the overexpression of lncRNA HCP5 was observed in gastric cancer tissues. The purpose of this study was to investigate the molecular mechanism underlying the effect of lncRNA HCP5 on the proliferative, migratory, and invasive abilities of GC cells. The relative mRNA expression of HCP5, miR-299-3p, and SMAD5 were determined by RT-qPCR. The expressions of proteins associated with apoptosis and invasion were detected by western blot. The interaction of HCP5 with miR-299-3p and SMAD5 with miR-299-3p was confirmed by luciferase reporter assay. The cellular behaviors of AGS cells were, respectively, detected by CCK-8 assays, colony formation assays, migration and invasion assays, and flow cytometry. In our study, lncRNA HCP5 was highly expressed in GC cell lines compared with normal gastric epithelial cell. LncRNA HCP5 silencing inhibited AGS cells proliferation, migration, and invasion, while promoted cell apoptosis. Moreover, miR-299-3p downregulation could abolish the effect of HCP5 knockdown on cellular behaviors of AGS cells. Interestingly, SMAD5 is identified as the downstream target of miR-299-3p, and its expression was inhibited by miR-299-3p. More importantly, SMAD5 silencing inhibited proliferation, migration, and invasion of GC cells, and promoted cell apoptosis. In a word, lncRNA HCP5 silencing inhibits GC cell proliferation, invasion, and migration while promoting its apoptosis via regulation of miR-299-3p/SMAD5 axis. Hence, lncRNA HCP5 could be a novel and promising target for GC treatment.

title: The gut microbial diversity of colon cancer patients and the clinical significance

description: The microbial diversity and communities in the excrement of healthy and patients suffered from cancer were identified by 16SrDNA sequencing performed on the Illumina Hi Seq sequencing platform. The microbial difference was also analyzed. The sequencing results showed high quality of the data, and the microbial communities were more various in the excrement of cancer patients. And the abundance of Firmicutes phylum was significantly reduced in cancer group. The phylum of Fermicutes, Bacteroidetes in cancer group are significantly down-regulated and up-regulated compared with normal group. The species of <i>Faecalibacterium prausnitzii, Bateroides vulgatus</i> and <i>Fusicatenibacter saccharivorans</i> are significantly lower in cancer group than that in normal group (<i>P</i>&lt; 0.05). The species of <i>Prevetella copri, M. uniformis,</i> and <i>Escherichia coli</i> are significantly higher in the cancer group than that in normal group. The comparative results indicated that beneficial bacterium significantly decreased in colorectal cancer (CRC) group, and harmful bacterium significantly increased in the colon cancer group, meanwhile the acidity, sugar increased whereas the oxygen content decreased to facilitate the growth of harmful bacterium. The results would provide microbial approaches for the treatment of colon cancer by the intake of beneficial microbial communities.

title: CKS2 (CDC28 protein kinase regulatory subunit 2) is a prognostic biomarker in lower grade glioma: a study based on bioinformatic analysis and immunohistochemistry

description: Gliomas account for the highest cases of primary brain malignancies. Whereas previous studies have demonstrated the roles of CDC28 Protein Kinase Regulatory Subunit 2 (CKS2) in various cancer types, its functions in lower grade gliomas (LGGs) remain elusive. This study aimed to profile the expression and functions of CKS2 in LGG. Multiple online databases such as The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), the Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas (CGGA), Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis 2nd edition (GEPIA2), Tumor Immune Estimation Resource 2nd edition (TIMER2.0) as well as Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) were used in this study. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) was performed to evaluate CKS2 protein expression. Our data demonstrated upregulation of CKS2 in LGG tissues at both mRNA and protein level, especially in grade III gliomas. Similarly, there was increased expression of CKS2 in isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) wildtype gliomas. In addition, increased DNA copy number and DNA hypomethylation might be associated with the upregulation of the CKS2 in LGG. Using the Kaplan–Meier survival analysis and the Cox regression analysis, CKS2 was shown to be independently associated with poor prognosis of LGG patients. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis revealed that CKS2 could effectively predict the 1-, 3- and 5-year survival rates of LGG patients. Enrichment analyses revealed that CKS2 was mainly involved in the regulation of the cell cycle in LGG. Taken together, our study demonstrated that CKS2 might be a candidate prognostic biomarker for LGG and could predict the survival rates of LGG patients. <b>Abbreviations:</b> LGG: lower grade glioma; CKS2: CDC28 protein kinase regulatory subunit 2; TCGA: The Cancer Genome Atlas; CGGA: the Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas; GEO: Gene Expression Omnibus; GEPIA: Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis; TIMER: Tumor Immune Estimation Resource; IHC: immunohistochemistry; qRT-PCR: quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction; PBS: phosphate buffered saline; DAB: diaminobenzidine tetrachloride; OS: overall survival; CAN: copy number alteration; IDH: Isocitrate dehydrogenase; GSEA: Gene Set Enrichment Analysis; DEG: differentially expressed gene; KEGG: Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes; GO: Gene ontology; BP: biological process; CC: cellular component; MF: molecular function; NES: normalized enrichment score; NOM: nominal; FDR: false discovery rate

title: A genomic instability-derived risk index predicts clinical outcome and immunotherapy response for clear cell renal cell carcinoma

description: This study aims to originate agenomic instability-derived risk index (GIRI) for prognostic analysis of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) and explore the mutation characteristics, immune characteristics, and immunotherapy response defined by GIRI. Differentially expressed genome instability-associated genes were obtained from the genomic unstable (GU) group and the genomic stable (GS) group. Rigorous screening conditions were assigned to the screening of hub genes, which were then used to generate the GIRI through multivariate Cox regression analysis. The selected samples were assigned to the high-risk group or the low-risk group based on the median GIRI. Possible reasons for the prognostic differences in risk subgroups were explored from the aspects of mutation profiles, immune profiles, immunomodulators, and biological pathway activities. The possibility of immunotherapy response was predicted by Tumor Immune Dysfunction and Exclusion analysis results. The prediction of drugs that might reverse the expression profiles of the risk subgroups was discovered through theonnectivity Map (CMap). High-risk populations manifested poor overall survival than low-risk populations and were characterized by elevated cumulative mutation counts and tumor mutation burden. Also, high-risk populations had higher immune scores, immunomodulator (PD-1, CTLA4, LAG3, and TIGIT) expression, and genomic instability-related pathway activities, and were more likely to reap benefits from immunotherapy. Besides, we predicted several drugs (PI3K inhibitor, ATPase inhibitor, and phenylalanyl tRNA synthetase inhibitor) targeting risk subgroups. The well established GIRI was an effective cancer biomarker for predicting ccRCC prognosis and provided apotential reference value for identifying immunotherapy response.

title: MicroRNA miR-92a-3p regulates breast cancer cell proliferation and metastasis via regulating B-cell translocation gene 2 (BTG2)

description: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) dysregulation contributes to tumorigenesis, and it is reported that abnormal miR-92a-3p expression participates in multiple cancers’ occurrence and progression. This study focuses on miR-92a-3p’s functions and regulatory mechanism in breast cancer (BC). The current study proved miR-92a-3p expression was enhanced in BC tissues and cells, and its high expression was related to increased TNM stage and larger tumor size of BC patients. Functionally, transfection of miR-92a-3p mimics facilitated BC cell proliferation and metastasis, yet transfection of miR-92a-3p inhibitors functioned oppositely. In addition, BTG2 was verified as a direct miR-92a-3p target in BC cells. This research indicated that miR-92a-3p facilitates BC cell proliferation and metastasis through repressing BTG2 expression.

title: Long non-coding RNA CASC9 promotes tumor progression in oral squamous cell carcinoma by regulating microRNA-545-3p/laminin subunit gamma 2

description: Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) CASC9 is reported to be a tumor promoter in oral cancer, but its mechanism in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) has not been fully explored. Our study aimed to identify the interaction between lncRNA CASC9, microRNA-545-3p (miR-545-3p), and laminin subunit gamma 2 (LAMC2) in OSCC cells. Our study confirmed that lncRNA CASC9 and LAMC2 were upregulated in OSCC, whereas miR-545-3p expression was reduced. After performing a series of cell functional experiments, it was found that knockdown of lncRNA CASC9 or LAMC2 resulted in the inhibition of proliferation, colony formation, and migration of OSCC cells, but their negative effects could be partly impaired by the miR-545-3p inhibitor. In addition, we proved for the first time that lncRNA CASC9 can sponge miR-545-3p to upregulate LAMC2. In conclusion, our study revealed that lncRNA CASC9 promotes the malignancy of OSCC cells by sponging miR-545-3p to enhance LAMC2 expression, implying that lncRNA CASC9/miR-545-3p/LAMC2 may be an intervention approach in OSCC therapy.
