Summary: A long non-coding RNA (CFRL) associated with cardiac fibrosis has been identified, which can promote the proliferation and migration of cardiac fibroblasts. Silencing CFRL significantly alleviates cardiac fibrosis and improves ventricular function. Interfering with CFRL may be considered as a multitarget strategy for treating cardiac fibrosis and heart failure.

Summary: The dysregulation of non-coding RNAs, particularly lncRNA-ATB and its downstream targets miR-29b-2-5p and miR-34c-3p, plays a crucial role in regulating EMT and fibrosis in pulmonary diseases. Overexpression of miR-29b-2-5p or miR-34c-3p can inhibit EMT progression and counteract the pro-fibrotic effects of lncRNA-ATB, providing potential therapeutic targets for pulmonary fibrosis.

Summary: This study reveals that circ-TRIO plays a crucial role in TNBC and is associated with the recurrence and prognosis of TNBC patients. The findings demonstrate that knockdown of circ-TRIO inhibits the proliferation, migration, and invasion of TNBC cells, while overexpression of circ-TRIO has the opposite effects. Mechanistically, circ-TRIO interacts with miR-432-5p to regulate the expression of CCDC58.

Summary: This study investigated the effect and underlying mechanism of Trillin on myoblast differentiation using a myoblast differentiation model established with mice C2C12 cell line in vitro. The results showed that Trillin significantly inhibited C2C12 differentiation in a dose-dependent manner and increased autophagy. Mechanistically, the activity of AKT/mTOR declined during the inhibition of differentiation by Trillin.

Summary: This research focuses on how to safely mine in close multi coal seams, especially for large-dip coal seams with complex geological and mechanical conditions. The study found that the overburden strata deform asymmetrically around the coal pillar, leading to non-uniform stress distribution on the floor of the coal pillar and ribs. The results provide a theoretical foundation for a reasonable layout and support technique for roadways in deep zone mining.
