Summary: Aberrant expression of GINS2 and miR-502-5p has been associated with ovarian cancer progression. Upregulation of miR-502-5p inhibited cell proliferation and migration levels, while GINS2 overexpression enhanced proliferation and migration but hampered apoptosis in OC cells. miR-502-5p targeting GINS2 suppressed OC progression by inhibiting cell growth and promoting cell apoptosis.

Summary: In this study, it was found that MSC-AS1 and miR-425-5p were aberrantly expressed in ovarian cancer, with MSC-AS1 inhibiting ovarian cancer progression by modulating the levels of miR-425-5p. These findings may provide a promising therapeutic target for the treatment of ovarian cancer.

Summary: miR-34a is downregulated and associated with inhibition of tumor growth and invasion in ovarian cancer, while FOXP1 is reported as either an oncogene or tumor suppressor. It is found that miR-34a and FOXP1 are reversely correlated, and inhibition of miR-34a leads to upregulation of FOXP1 expression and increased cellular invasion. miR-34a could be a potential biomarker for improving the diagnostic efficiency of ovarian cancer, and its overexpression may reduce pathogenesis by targeting FOXP1.

Summary: METTL3 promotes the maturation of miR-126-5p through m6A modification, which in turn targets PTEN to activate the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway in ovarian cancer progression. This study provides potential targets for future ovarian cancer treatment and reveals tumorigenic mechanisms regulated by m6A modification.

Summary: The aim of this research was to explore the diagnostic value of circDENND4C in EOC and the corresponding mechanism. The expression of circDENND4C and miR-200b/c in tissues, serum, and cell lines of EOC were analyzed. It was found that circDENND4C was lowest while miR-200b/c was highest in EOC tissues and serums. Furthermore, circDENND4C was involved in the malignant progression of EOC by suppressing cell proliferation and stimulating apoptosis through downregulating miR-200b/c. Serum circDENND4C showed a higher specificity and accuracy than serum CA125 or HE4 in EOC diagnosis.

Summary: In this study, the regulatory effect of the CRM1-Survivin axis on the progression of ovarian cancer was explored. The results showed that CRM1 silencing inhibited the proliferation and colony formation of ovarian cancer cells and promoted cell apoptosis by promoting Caspase-3 activation. Survivin was positively regulated by CRM1 and promoted the development of ovarian cancer. This suggests that the CRM1-Survivin axis may serve as a potential therapeutic target for ovarian cancer.

Summary: Ovarian cancer is a common gynecological disease with high mortality rates. The microRNA miR-638 has been found to be associated with tumorigenesis. In this study, it was demonstrated that miR-638 acts as a suppressor of ovarian cancer by regulating HMGA1 expression, presenting a potential therapeutic target for this disease.

Summary: This study found that miR-4268 is downregulated and KRT80 is upregulated in gastric cancer tissues and cells. Interfering with KRT80 expression inhibits proliferation and migration of gastric cancer cells and promotes apoptosis. MiR-4268 targets KRT80 and negatively regulates its expression, and it may suppress gastric cancer through inhibiting the PI3K/AKT/JNK pathway by targeting KRT80.

Summary: Our study demonstrated that miR-486 is significantly upregulated in ovarian cancer tissues and cells, while CADM1 expression is downregulated. miR-486 targets CADM1, and interference with miR-486 can inhibit cell proliferation and invasion while promoting apoptosis. Knocking down both miR-486 and CADM1 enhances cell proliferation and invasion, shifts cell cycle progression, and reduces apoptosis in SKOV3 cells.

Summary: This study found that miR-222-3p inhibits the migration and proliferation of OC cells and is negatively correlated with CDK19. Hotair, on the other hand, promotes the proliferation and migration of OC cells by inhibiting miR-222-3p and is positively correlated with CDK19 expression. These findings are important for a better understanding of the mechanism of occurrence and development of OC.
