{"title":"Magnetic mitohormesis: A non-invasive therapy for inflammatory disorders?","authors":"Alfredo FRANCO-OBREG覰","doi":"10.32604/biocell.2023.025357","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.32604/biocell.2023.025357","url":null,"abstract":"An organism's survival depends on its ability to adapt to stress. Mitochondria are the cellular integrators of environmental stressors that ultimately translate their responses at the organismal level, and are thus central to the process whereby organisms adapt to their respective environments. Mitochondria produce molecular energy via oxidative phosphorylation that then allows cells to biosynthetically respond and adapt to changes in their environment. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are by-products of oxidative phosphorylation that can be either beneficial or damaging, depending on the context;ROS are hence both the conveyors of environmental stress as well as cellular \"adaptogens”. Mitohormesis refers to the process whereby low levels of oxidative stress spur survival adaptations, whereas excessive levels stymie survival. Low energy and frequency pulsing electromagnetic fields have been recently shown capable of stimulating mitochondrial respiration and ROS production and instilling mitohormetic survival adaptations, similarly to, yet independently of, exercise, opening avenues for the future development of Magnetic Mitohormetic interventions for the improvement of human health. This viewpoint explores the possibilities and nuances of magnetic-based therapies as a form of clinical intervention to non-invasively activate magnetic mitohormesis for the management of chronic diseases. © 2023 Centro Regional de Invest.

With the alterations of host immune competence, the homeostatic balance existing between the oral microbiota and host may be disturbed and result in the development of diseases. Numerous observations have suggested that small RNAs are key regulators of bacterial pathogenesis and bacteria-host interactions. Further, bacterial small RNAs are considered to be promising biomarkers for the development of novel, and efficacious therapies for oral dysbiosis. Mechanistic insights into how oral pathogens communicate with other bacteria or host cells in oral cancers via small RNAs are hot topics of research. Current studies also have begun to elucidate the key role of oral microbiota in the development of systemic diseases. This article discusses existing findings and nascent mechanisms governing the small RNA-based interactions between oral microbiota and associated diseases. The knowledge of such interactions is key in planning approaches to reverse dysbiosis to achieve health.","PeriodicalId":55384,"journal":{"name":"Biocell","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135505973","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is hence important to identify reliable biomarkers to facilitate early detection of EC. Signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) family members play an important role in several tumors, however, their impact on EC development and progression remains unclear. <b>Methods:</b> Machine learning methods were used to investigate the importance of STAT5B in EC. <b>Results:</b> Hence, we explored the UALCAN data mining platform and found that while STAT1 and STAT2 were upregulated, STAT5A, STAT5B, and STAT6 were downregulated in EC. This high expression of STAT5B and STAT6 predicted favorable clinical outcomes, whereas the increased expression of STAT1 and STAT2 predicted poor clinical outcomes. Subsequent pathway enrichment analysis revealed that the STAT family was mainly involved in apoptosis pathway activation, cell cycle disruption, and epithelial–mesenchymal transition. Drug sensitivity analysis demonstrated that STAT5A/5B expression was negatively correlated with drug resistance in EC. Further, the expression of STAT5B mRNA and protein was correlated with several clinicopathological characteristics. Tumor Immune Estimation Resource (TIMER) analysis revealed that STAT5B expression was positively correlated with the abundance of infiltrating CD8+ T cells and neutrophils while its copy number variation was associated with the overall immune cell infiltration. The data on the correlations between STAT5B expression and related genes in uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma (UCEC) in cBio Cancer Portal showed the closest correlation of STAT5B expression with that of KIAA0753 (also known as moonraker and OFIP), followed by COL27A1 in EC. Pathway enrichment analysis further showed that STAT5B-related genes were involved in the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and Ras signaling pathways. <b>Conclusion:</b> Collectively, our findings provided new insights into the role of the STAT family in EC. It also highlighted new targets for future research on diagnostic and prognostic markers and STAT5B as a novel marker for drug sensitivity screening.","PeriodicalId":55384,"journal":{"name":"Biocell","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135506341","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
