Circpip5k1a Facilitates Gastric Cancer Progression Via Mir-376C-3P Ma et al. Cancer Cell Int (2020) 20:81 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12935-020-1122-5 Cancer Cell International PRIMARY RESEARCH Open Access CircPIP5K1A facilitates gastric cancer progression via miR-376c-3p/ZNF146 axis Yan Ma1†, Xiliang Cong1†, Yiyun Zhang2, Xin Yin1, Ziyu Zhu1 and Yingwei Xue1* Abstract Background: Recently, many emerging circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been studied in human malignancies, includ- ing gastric cancer (GC). Researches concerning cancers have revealed that aberrant expression of circRNAs play a big part in tumorigenesis and development of diverse malignant tumors. Although hsa_circ_0014130 (circPIP5K1A) has been confrmed to be closely related to non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) progression, the knowledge of its function on GC progression remains unclear. Therefore, it is of great interest to uncover the underlying role of circPIP5K1A in GC. Methods: The expression and characteristic of circPIP5K1A were separately analyzed by RT-qPCR, nucleic acid elec- trophoresis, RNase R and Actinomycin D treatment. CCK-8, colony formation, EdU, transwell, TUNEL, fow cytometry, luciferase reporter, RIP and RNA pull-down assays were employed to testify the regulatory role of circPIP5K1A in GC. Results: In current study, circPIP5K1A, featured with closed-loop structure, was proved to be highly expressed in tis- sues and cells of GC. Loss-of-function assays depicted that silencing circPIP5K1A suppressed GC development. Follow- up mechanism tests unveiled that circPIP5K1A bound with miR-376c-3p and inhibition of miR-376c-3p reversed circ- PIP5K1A downregulation-mediated efect on GC progression. Additionally, ZNF146 was verifed to be the downstream molecule of circPIP5K1A/miR-376c-3p axis in modulating GC progression. Conclusions: circPIP5K1A stimulates GC progression by sponging miR-376c-3p to upregulate ZNF146 expression.

We utilized an informatics-based approach to develop a transcriptional signature of β-cell GA stress using existing RNA sequencing and microarray datasets generated using human islets from donors with diabetes and islets where type 1(T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) had been modeled ex vivo. To narrow our results to GA-specific genes, we applied a filter set of 1,030 genes accepted as GA associated.

    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN A fexible microfuidic system for single‑cell transcriptome profling elucidates phased transcriptional regulators of cell cycle Karen Davey1,7, Daniel Wong2,7, Filip Konopacki2, Eugene Kwa1, Tony Ly3, Heike Fiegler2 & Christopher R. Sibley 1,4,5,6* Single cell transcriptome profling has emerged as a breakthrough technology for the high‑resolution understanding of complex cellular systems. Here we report a fexible, cost‑efective and user‑ friendly droplet‑based microfuidics system, called the Nadia Instrument, that can allow 3′ mRNA capture of ~ 50,000 single cells or individual nuclei in a single run. The precise pressure‑based system demonstrates highly reproducible droplet size, low doublet rates and high mRNA capture efciencies that compare favorably in the feld. Moreover, when combined with the Nadia Innovate, the system can be transformed into an adaptable setup that enables use of diferent bufers and barcoded bead confgurations to facilitate diverse applications. Finally, by 3′ mRNA profling asynchronous human and mouse cells at diferent phases of the cell cycle, we demonstrate the system’s ability to readily distinguish distinct cell populations and infer underlying transcriptional regulatory networks. Notably this provided supportive evidence for multiple transcription factors that had little or no known link to the cell cycle (e.g. DRAP1, ZKSCAN1 and CEBPZ). In summary, the Nadia platform represents a promising and fexible technology for future transcriptomic studies, and other related applications, at cell resolution. Single cell transcriptome profling has recently emerged as a breakthrough technology for understanding how cellular heterogeneity contributes to complex biological systems. Indeed, cultured cells, microorganisms, biopsies, blood and other tissues can be rapidly profled for quantifcation of gene expression at cell resolution.

  • Genome-Wide Analysis of Promoter Methylation Associated with Gene Expression Profile in Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma
    Published OnlineFirst May 24, 2011; DOI: 10.1158/1078-0432.CCR-10-3431 Clinical Cancer Human Cancer Biology Research Genome-Wide Analysis of Promoter Methylation Associated with Gene Expression Profile in Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma Audrey Vincent1, Noriyuki Omura1, Seung-Mo Hong1, Andrew Jaffe4, James Eshleman1,2, and Michael Goggins1,2,3 Abstract Purpose: The goal of this study was to comprehensively identify CpG island methylation alterations between pancreatic cancers and normal pancreata and their associated gene expression alterations. Experimental Design: We employed methylated CpG island amplification followed by CpG island microarray, a method previously validated for its accuracy and reproducibility, to analyze the methylation profile of 27,800 CpG islands covering 21 MB of the human genome in nine pairs of pancreatic cancer versus normal pancreatic epithelial tissues and in three matched pairs of pancreatic cancer versus lymphoid tissues from the same individual. Results: This analysis identified 1,658 known loci that were commonly differentially methylated in pancreatic cancer compared with normal pancreas. By integrating the pancreatic DNA methylation status with the gene expression profiles of the same samples before and after treatment with the DNA methyltransferase inhibitor 5-aza-20-deoxycytidine, and the histone deacetylase inhibitor, trichostatin A, we identified dozens of aberrantly methylated and differentially expressed genes in pancreatic cancers including a more comprehensive list of hypermethylated and silenced genes that have not been previously described as targets for aberrant methylation in cancer. Conclusion: We expected that the identification of aberrantly hypermethylated and silenced genes will have diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic applications. Clin Cancer Res; 17(13); 4341–54.

Interaction between FLAG-GST-SALL4, -PLZF, or IKZF1 and bls-CRB-WT or - CRBN-YW/AA in the presence of DMSO or 50 µM thalidomide was analysed by in vitro binding assay using AlphaScreen technology. c, In vitro binding assay using pull-down and immunoblot analysis. bls-CRBN-WT or -CRBN-YW/AA was used as bait protein, and thalidomide-dependent interactions between bls-CRBN and FLAG-GST-SALL4, PLZF, and IKZF were confirmed by procedures described in Methods.

  • Down-Regulation of Siglec-2 (CD22) Predicts Worse Overall Survival from HBV-Related Early-Stage Hepatocellular Carcinoma: a Preliminary Analysis
    Bioscience Reports (2018) 38 BSR20181423 https://doi.org/10.1042/BSR20181423 Research Article Down-regulation of siglec-2 (CD22) predicts worse overall survival from HBV-related early-stage hepatocellular carcinoma: a preliminary analysis from Gene Expression Omnibus Downloaded from http://portlandpress.com/bioscirep/article-pdf/38/6/BSR20181423/809073/bsr-2018-1423.pdf by guest on 29 September 2021 Xiaojing Ren, Yuanyuan Ji, Xuhua Jiang and Xun Qi Department of Liver Disease, Shanghai Public Health Clinical Center, Fudan University, Shanghai 201508, China Correspondence: Xun Qi ([email protected]) Sialic-acid-binding immunoglobulin-like lectin (siglec) regulates cell death, anti-proliferative effects and mediates a variety of cellular activities. Little was known about the relationship between siglecs and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) prognosis. Siglec gene expression between tumor and non-tumor tissues were compared and correlated with overall survival (OS) from HCC patients in GSE14520 microarray expression profile. Siglec-1 to siglec-9 were all down-regulated in tumor tissues compared with those in non-tumor tissues in HCC patients (all P < 0.05). Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that siglec-2 overexpression could predict better OS (HR = 0.883, 95%CI = 0.806–0.966, P = 0.007). Patients with higher siglec-2 levels achieved longer OS months than those with lower siglec-2 levels in the Kaplan–Meier event analysis both in training and validation sets (P < 0.05). Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) levels in siglec-2 low expression group were signifi- cantly higher than those in siglec-2 high expression group using Chi-square analysis (P = 0.043).
