According to bioinformatics analysis, long noncoding RNA PCBP1-AS1 is downregulated in OSCC. In this work, the functions and mechanism of PCBP1-AS1 in OSCC were further investigated. PCBP1-AS1 expression in OSCC cells was measured by quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Cell viability and proliferation were detected using CCK-8 assays and colony-forming assays. TUNEL assays as well as flow cytometry analyses were carried out to detect OSCC cell apoptosis. Binding relationship between PCBP1-AS1 and miR-34c-5p or that between miR-34c-5p and ZFP36 in OSCC cells was identified using RNA immunoprecipitation assays, RNA pulldown assays, and luciferase reporter assays. Experimental results revealed that PCBP1-AS1 was downregulated in OSCC cells. PCBP1-AS1 overexpression hampered cell proliferation and enhanced cell apoptosis in OSCC. PCBP1-AS1 interacted with miR-34c-5p in OSCC and negatively regulated miR-34c-5p. ZFP36 3'untranslated region was targeted by miR-34c-5p. PCBP1-AS1 positively regulated ZFP36 expression. ZFP36 silencing abrogated the suppressive impact of PCBP1-AS1 on OSCC cell growth. In summary, PCBP1-AS1 suppresses cell growth in OSCC by upregulating ZFP36 through interaction with miR-34c-5p.","PeriodicalId":9802,"journal":{"name":"Cellular and molecular biology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2024-10-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142388360","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}

Our work was designed to identify the TIL-related hub genes in TNBC and construct a prognostic signature for TNBC. TNBC gene expression files were obtained from the TCGA database. CIBERSORT algorithm and random forest risk model were used for immune infiltration group division. The TIL-related differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were then selected and subject to GO, KEGG analyses and GSEA. Next, Lasso cox regression analyses were adopted for constructing a prognostic risk model, followed by evaluation using time-dependent ROC curves. The copy number variation between the two risk groups was also analyzed, and major genomic mutation types were identified. Additionally, the nomogram was constructed with calibration curve for clinical prognosis analysis. Our results showed that totally 113 TNBC samples were allocated into the high or low-immune risk groups. We identified 243 DEGs between groups, namely TIL-related DEGs, with 128 upregulated and 115 downregulated genes. Among the TIL-related DEGs, 6 hub genes (SLITRK3, PCDHGB3, NELL2, SRRM4, ASIC2 and B4GALNT2) were screened out and constructed a prognostic risk signature, which had good performance for long-term prognosis prediction. Analysis of genomic mutation showed that the TP53, PIK3CA, TTH, etc. showed high mutation frequency in the two prognostic risk groups. Moreover, the higher risk score of the prognostic risk model predicted poor overall survival in TNBC patients, and nomogram and calibration curve confirmed the potent prediction ability of this model. To sum up, six TIL-related biomarkers (SLITRK3, PCDHGB3, NELL2, SRRM4, ASIC2 and B4GALNT2) were identified and used for the construction of the prognostic risk model, which might provide novel insight for the clinical decisions.","PeriodicalId":9802,"journal":{"name":"Cellular and molecular biology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2024-10-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142388424","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}

Results showed that compared to the normal control plasma group, the expression levels of TLR7, 8, IRF3, 7 and PD-1 and CTLA-4, on days 3, 5 and 7 after convalescent plasma infusion, were significantly decreased. On the other hand, Gene expression results showed that the expression levels of Tbet, RORγ3 and Foxp3 on days 3, 5 and 7 after convalescent plasma infusion were significantly increased compared to the normal control plasma group. After convalescent plasma infusion, the viral load was significantly decreased compared to the normal control plasma group. Convalescent plasma infusion also reduced the plasma cytokines levels, including IL-6, IL-10, and IL-4, and enhanced the level of IL-2, IFN- γ and perforin comparing the normal control plasma group. According to the results, the convalescent plasma infusion led to a decrease in the expression of innate immunity receptors and an increase in the expression of transcription factors of adaptive immunity.

The medicinal qualities of the leaves of the argel plant (Solanum argel, or S. argel) have been recognized in traditional medicine for quite some time. The medicinal potential of these leaves may be due to the presence of bioactive substances such as alkaloids, flavonoids, and phenolic acids. S. argel leaf antibacterial, phytochemical, and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) characteristics are the focus of this investigation. To conduct the study, bioactive compounds would be extracted from the leaves and tested against a panel of bacterial pathogens. Then, the compounds would be identified using GC-MS analysis. Mean inhibition zones of 15.30±1.0 mm, 14.67±0.42 mm, 15.0±0.01 mm, and 15.56±0.22 mm for the bacteria E. coli, Staph. aureus, and Sal. typhimurium, respectively, were seen in the antibacterial results at a concentration of 3 µg/disc. Secondary metabolites such as alkaloids, flavonoids, phenolic substances, and tannins were identified using phytochemical investigation. Antimicrobial, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory are just a few of the many bioactivities associated with these phytochemicals. Argel plant leaves contain bioactive chemicals that show they could be a source of new pharmaceuticals. Argel leaves were analyzed using GC-MS and 37 different chemicals were found.

HPV has been shown to induce senescence. Cellular senescence is involved in cancer progression and tumorigenesis. Identification and isolation of cells of tumor origin before tumorigeneses is an important step in cancer prevention and treatment. This study aimed to investigate the early cervical atypical senescent cytological preneoplastic change in non-menopausal women. Cervical smears of 121 patients were randomly selected and included in the study which cytopathologically diagnosed as atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance (AS-CUS) in correlation to HPV status, parakeratosis (PK), p16 immunostaining, enlarged Squamous cells nuclei (ES) and inflammatory cells infiltration (ICI). Results revealed that out of the total 121 patients, 32 cases (26%) were positive for high-risk HPV (HR-HPV), 26 cases (22%) were positive for low-risk HPV (LR-HPV) and 63 (52%) were negative for HPV. HPV infections were significantly associated with age groups (p<0.026), PK (p = 0.043), p16 (p = 0.001), ES (p = 0.002) and ICI (p = 0.049). The positive immunostaining expression of p16 was only noticed in two HR-HPV patients. ES cells were found in 9.5% of HPV-negative cases, 27% of LR-HPV cases and 40.5% of HR-HPV cases. High PK cell positivity was seen only in HR-HPV. High ICI scores were seen in 40.6% of HR-HPV patients, 26.9 % of LR-HPV and 17.4 % of negative HPV patients. It was concluded that high PK positivity, high ICI score, positive p16 immunostaining and ES were correlated with HR-HPV in non-menopausal women. These findings could provide potential diagnostic clues for HPV-harboring senescent cells as a strategy for reducing HPV risk of cervical cancer development and identifying the cell of tumor origin, which could be beneficial for improving the utility of senolytic agents and immunotherapy in clinical practice.","PeriodicalId":9802,"journal":{"name":"Cellular and molecular biology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2024-10-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142388418","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}
