Abstract

TIPE1 is a gene in the TNFAIP8 family involved in immune regulation and tumorigenesis. Although previous studies demonstrated that TIPE1 might play different roles in different tumors, its expression and role in lymphoma are unclear. Here we observed TIPE1 expression in diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Two microarrays containing 96 tumor tissue specimens were obtained from the Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University biobank. All specimens came from patients with a clear pathological diagnosis of lymphoma, lymphadenitis, breast cancer, or bladder cancer, and we performed immunohistochemical experiments on these tissue specimens. GEPIA and TIMER platforms were used for bioinformatic analyses. We found higher TIPE1 expression in tumor tissues from patients with lymphoma compared with those with lymphadenitis, breast cancer, or bladder cancer. The GEPIA and TIMER analyses revealed that TIPE1 was upregulated in DLBCL tissues but not in invasive breast carcinoma, urothelial bladder carcinoma, or liver hepatocellular carcinoma tissues. TIPE1 expression was irrelevant for pathological stage, overall survival, or DLBCL immune infiltration levels. However, TIPE1 expression was correlated with MKI67 expression in DLBCL. Overall, TIPE1’s high expression levels in DLBCL may contribute to tumor growth in DLBCL.

Abstract

Background: Kawasaki disease (KD) is an immune vasculitis of unknown origin, characterized by transient inflammation. The activation of the cGAS-STING pathway, triggered by mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) release, has been implicated in the onset of KD. However, its specific role in the progression of inflammation during KD's acute phase remains unclear. Methods: We measured mtDNA and 2'3'-cGAMP expression in KD patient serum using RT-qPCR and ELISA. A murine model of KD was induced by injecting Lactobacillus casei cell wall extract (LCWE), after which cGAS-STING pathway activation and inflammatory markers were assessed via immunohistochemistry, western blot, and RT-qPCR. Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were treated with KD serum and modulators of the cGAS-STING pathway for comparative analysis. Mitochondrial function was evaluated using Mitosox staining, mPTP opening was quantified by fluorescence microscopy, and mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) was determined with JC-1 staining. Results: KD patient serum exhibited increased mtDNA and 2'3'-cGAMP expression, with elevated levels of pathway-related proteins and inflammatory markers observed in both in vivo and in vitro models. TEM confirmed mitochondrial damage, and further studies demonstrated that inhibition of mPTP opening reduced mtDNA release, abrogated cGAS-STING pathway activation, and mitigated inflammation. Conclusion: These findings indicate that mtDNA released through the mPTP is a critical activator of the cGAS-STING pathway, contributing significantly to KD-associated inflammation. Targeting mtDNA release or the cGAS-STING pathway may offer novel therapeutic approaches for KD management. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Objectives: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a common carcinoma of the gastrointestinal tract with high incidence and mortality worldwide. Studies have shown that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play important roles in CRC. Our purpose is to investigate the potential of serum Linc01836 as a diagnostic and prognostic marker in CRC.Methods: We evaluated the expression of Linc01836 via quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). The serum CEA, CA19-9, Cyfra21-1, and CA72-4 concentrations were measured by Architect I4000 SR. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were plotted to estimate the diagnostic value in CRC. Relationship between serum Linc01836 expression and clinicopathological characteristics of CRC cases was analyzed via chi-square test. The underlying mechanism of Linc01836 on the development and prognosis in CRC was predicted by bioinformatic analysis.Results: The method of qRT-PCR for Linc01836 detection was confirmed with high precision and specificity. Serum Linc01836 expression in CRC patients was significantly higher than that in healthy donors (p p p p = 0.002) and lymph node metastasis (p = 0.006). In addition, serum Linc01836 could effectively differentiate CRC patients from the healthy folks, with favorable area under the curve (AUC) of 0.809 (95% CI: 0.757–0.861, p < 0.001). What is more, the combination of serum Linc01836, CEA, and Cyfra21-1 could improve diagnostic sensitivity (92.0%). Linc01836 was averagely located in the nucleus and cytoplasm, suggesting that it might participate in CRC progression and prognosis through the crosstalk among lncRNAs, miRNAs, and mRNAs.Conclusion: Linc01836 may serve as a valuable noninvasive biomarker for population screening, early detection, and clinical surveillance of CRC.

Abstract

Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the common malignant tumors with high mortality. The abundance of miRNAs in serum exosomes has proved to have a high application value as a new noninvasive diagnostic method. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether serum exosomal miR-92a-3p could be used as a new biomarker for early diagnosis of GC and evaluate its clinical application value by detecting the expression of serum exosomal miR-92a-3p in 131 patients with primary GC and 122 healthy controls by real-time quantitative (qRT)-PCR. The results showed that the expression level of serum exosomal miR-92a-3p in GC patients was significantly lower than that in normal controls (p < 0.0001). In addition, the level was closely correlated with lymph node metastasis and tumor node metastasis stage of GC patients. The area under the curve for serum exosomal miR-92a-3p was 0.829, significantly higher than for other indicators. Furthermore, combined detection of serum exosomal miR-92a-3p, CEA and CA19-9 was more sensitive than any of the three alone or any pair. These results showed that serum exosomal miR-92a-3p could be used as a novel new tumor biomarker to improve diagnostic efficiency in GC.
