This study highlights the essential protective role of the type II transmembrane serine protease (TTSP), hepsin, in mitigating acetaminophen-induced liver injury, particularly through its regulation of gap junction (GJ) abundance in response to reactive oxygen stress in the liver. We previously reported that reduced levels of activated hepatocyte growth factor and the c-Met receptor tyrosine kinase—both of which are vital for maintaining cellular redox balance—combined with increased expression of GJ proteins in hepsin-deficient mice. Here, we show that hepsin deficiency in mice exacerbates acetaminophen toxicity compared to wild-type mice, leading to more severe liver pathology, elevated oxidative stress, and greater mortality within 6 h after exposure. Administering hepsin had a protective effect in both mouse models, reducing hepatotoxicity by modulating GJ abundance. Additionally, transcriptome analysis and a functional GJ inhibitor have highlighted hepsin's mechanism for managing oxidative stress. Combining hepsin with relatively low doses of N-acetylcysteine had a synergistic effect that was more efficacious than high-dose N-acetylcysteine alone. Our results illustrate the crucial role of hepsin in modulating the abundance of hepatic GJs and reducing oxidative stress, thereby offering early protection against acetaminophen-induced hepatotoxicity and a new, combination approach. Emerging as a promising therapeutic target, hepsin holds potential for combination therapy with N-acetylcysteine, paving the way for novel approaches in managing drug-induced liver injury.</p><h3 data-test=\"abstract-sub-heading\">Graphical Abstract</h3><p>1.

We propose the novel hypothesis that the methyltransferase TRMT10C mediates the m7G modification of circFAM126A and that the stability of m7G-modified circFAM126A is reduced. circFAM126A is downregulated in lung cancer and significantly inhibits lung cancer growth both in vitro and in vivo.

This study not only broadens the knowledge regarding the expression and regulatory mode of circRNAs but also provides new insights into the molecular mechanisms that regulate tumour cell metabolism and affect tumour cell fate from an epigenetic perspective.

Due to this, there is a pressing need for innovative strategies to identify and treat GI cancers. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short ncRNAs that can be considered either cancer-causing or tumor-inhibiting molecules. MicroRNA-155, also known as miR-155, is a vital regulator in various cancer types. This miRNA has a carcinogenic role in a variety of gastrointestinal cancers, including pancreatic, colon, and gastric cancers. Since the abnormal production of miR-155 has been detected in various malignancies and has a correlation with increased mortality, it is a promising target for future therapeutic approaches. Moreover, exosomal miR-155 associated with tumors have significant functions in communicating between cells and establishing the microenvironment for cancer in GI cancers. Various types of genetic material, such as specifically miR-155 as well as proteins found in cancer-related exosomes, have the ability to be transmitted to other cells and have a function in the advancement of tumor. Therefore, it is critical to conduct a review that outlines the diverse functions of miR-155 in gastrointestinal malignancies. As a result, we present a current overview of the role of miR-155 in gastrointestinal cancers. Our research highlighted the role of miR-155 in GI cancers and covered critical issues in GI cancer such as pharmacologic inhibitors of miRNA-155, miRNA-155-assosiated circular RNAs, immune-related cells contain miRNA-155. Importantly, we discussed miRNA-155 in GI cancer resistance to chemotherapy, diagnosis and clinical trials.
