Summary: This study identified miRNAs associated with resistance to fg-SRLs treatment in acromegaly using miRNA sequencing and bioinformatic analysis. It was found that miR-181a-5p, miR-181b-5p, and miR-383-5p were differentially expressed, with miR-181a-5p and miR-181b-5p downregulated and miR-383-5p upregulated in the uncontrolled group. ROC curve analysis showed that miR-383-5p had an NPV of 84.3% and a PPV of 84.5%. Thus, these miRNAs can serve as biomarkers and tools to guide clinical decisions in response to fg-SRLs treatment.

Summary: Detection of miR-181a in circulating tumor cells (CTCs) of ovarian cancer patients may allow for early diagnosis and prognostic evaluation. MiR-181a could be involved in the development and progression of ovarian cancer as an oncogene. The expression of miR-181a in CTCs captured by EpCAM liposome magnetic beads (Ep-LMBs) correlates with clinical characteristics of ovarian cancer.

Summary: BAP31 regulates colorectal cancer (CRC) angiogenesis by manipulating the tumor microenvironment. Exosomes from BAP31-overexpressing CRCs induce the transformation of normal fibroblasts into proangiogenic cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs). Moreover, miR-181a-5p, a microRNA present in the exosomes, directly targets the RECK gene and promotes endothelial cell angiogenesis.

Summary: Polysaccharides have various biological activities, including tumor suppression by regulating the polarization of tumor-associated macrophages. In this study, the correlation between CD24 expression and colorectal cancer (CRC) was investigated. The results showed that CD24 expression was significantly correlated with advanced nuclear grade, lymph node metastasis, Duke's stage, and age of CRC patients.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the promise of sarcopenia as a prognostic indicator in individuals with colorectal cancer. Through systematic search and analysis of the literature, it was found that sarcopenia is associated with survival rates and disease-free survival rates in colorectal cancer patients.

Summary: High expression of CXCR4 is clearly associated with increased risk of death and progression in colorectal cancer. However, methodologic heterogeneity in CXCR4 assessment hinders direct translation into clinical practice, indicating the need for a consensus to streamline detection and scoring of CXCR4 expression in colorectal cancer.

Summary: The study found that regardless of differences in frailty screening and treatment approaches, outcomes for frailty patients were less favorable in all studies. Compared with the non-frail group, the frail group had higher mortality, more serious complications, more postoperative blood transfusions and delirium, and more support outside the home.

Summary: The tumor microenvironment plays a crucial role in the development of colorectal cancer (CRC). This study demonstrates that tumor-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) release exosomes containing miR-181b-3p, which promote CRC progression by regulating SNX2 expression.

Summary: miR-181a-2-3p promotes GC cell progression by targeting MYLK and enhancing tumor growth. The promoting effect of miR-181a-2-3p on GC cells is reversed when miR-181a-2-3p and MYLK are simultaneously overexpressed.

Summary: This meta-analysis suggests that low miR-638 expression is associated with poor prognosis in cancer patients, particularly in those with digestive system cancers. Additionally, low miR-638 expression is correlated with clinical features such as tumor size, lymph node metastasis, and TNM stage.

Summary: This study developed a novel method to predict microsatellite instability (MSI) in colorectal cancer (CRC) using transcriptomic profile and tumor microenvironment (TME). The method showed robustness and predictive power in predicting MSI status and has additional advantages compared to existing classifiers and other cancer types.

Summary: This meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the prognostic value of HLA-G in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients based on published literature and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) datasets. The results showed that HLA-G expression was significantly associated with poor overall survival in CRC patients. However, the prognostic significance was inconsistent with the TCGA data. Further research is needed to clarify the prognostic role of HLA-G in CRC.
