Purpose: This study investigated the relationships of TRAF6 expression with clinical pathologic parameters and the prognosis of patients with gastric cancer. This study also explored the roles of TRAF6 in cell apoptosis and invasiveness, as well as underlying molecular mechanism of gastric cancer cell line in vitro. Methods: A total of 90 cases of tissue microarrays were immunohistochemically analyzed for TRAF6 expression. Cell proliferation was measured by MIT assay. Flow cytometry was used for analyzing cell apoptosis and cell invasion ability was detected by a Transwell invasion assay. Protein expression was assessed by Western blotting. Results: TRAF6 was expressed in 53 of 90 (58.9%) cases of gastric cancer. TRAF6 expression was significantly positively correlated with advanced N stage, pathological stage and a poor prognosis, but not an independent predictor of a poor prognosis in gastric cancer (p = 0.083). The knockdown of TRAF6 increased cell apoptosis and reduced invasive ability of BGC-823 cell. Moreover, TRAF6 down-regulation decreased protein levels of phosphor-Akt, Bcl-2 and MMP9 and up-regulation of Bax in BGC-823 cell. Inversely, overexpression of TRAF6 in SGC-7901 cells increased protein levels of phosphor-Akt, Bcl-2 and MMP9 and down-regulation of Bax. Conclusions: The expression of TRAF6 was positively correlated with an advanced N stage and acted as a predictor of a poor prognosis in patients with gastric cancer. Moreover, TRAF6 regulating cell apoptosis and invasive ability of gastric cancer cells might be associated with Akt activation and alterations of protein expression of Bc12, Bax and MMP9.

The use of Clinicopathological, immunohistochemistry and molecular detection in the diagnosis of fumarate hydratase-deficient uterine leiomyomas

Xiaobo Zhang, Chen Wang, Danhua Shen

Summary: This study investigated the Clinicopathological features and FH mutation in FH-dUL. FH-dUL is rare and the combination of predictive Clinicopathological evaluation, FH and 2SC IHC test, and molecular test were helpful for the screening of FH-dUL or even HLRCC.

Emerging roles of SnoRNAs in the pathogenesis and treatment of autoimmune disorders

Gaurav Dubey, Mithilesh Singh, Himmat Singh, Mohit Agarwal, Shailendra Singh Chandel, Anurag Mishra, Ravindra Pal Singh, Neelima Kukreti

Summary: SnoRNAs play a crucial role in autoimmune diseases, influencing gene expression, immune cell development, and immune regulation. They have the potential to be biomarkers or therapeutic targets for disease management. However, further research is needed to elucidate their precise molecular mechanisms.

PPY-cell hyperplasia accompanying NENs: Immunohistochemical and nuclear medicine analysis

P. Suhaj, D. Do, T. Olejar, R. Pichova, O. Lang, R. Matej

Summary: Pancreatic polypeptide cell hyperplasia (PPY-H) is a multiplication of neuroendocrine cells producing pancreatic polypeptide (PPY). The development and role of PPY-H still need to be further elucidated. This study analyzed 12 cases of PPY-H accompanying pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasias (NEN) and found that gastrointestinal symptoms may be more related to PPY-H rather than NEN hormonal production. Strong SSTR2 expression in PPY-H suggests the potential utility of radiotracers in clinical diagnostics, but further studies are needed.

Unraveling the role of Xist RNA in cardiovascular pathogenesis

Waleed Hassan Almalki

Summary: Understanding the molecular pathways behind cardiovascular illnesses is crucial. Recent studies have revealed the role of Xist RNA in cardiovascular diseases, including epigenetic changes, gene expression, cellular identity, and sex chromosomal inactivation. Dysregulation of Xist RNA expression is associated with conditions such as atherosclerosis, hypertrophy, and cardiac fibrosis.

TESC acts as a prognostic factor and promotes epithelial-mesenchymal transition progression in esophageal squamous carcinoma

Yanxin Dong, Boshi Fan, Mingyang Li, Jiale Zhang, Shun Xie, Shouyin Dia, Qingge Jia, Taiqian Gong

Summary: Tescalcin (TESC) is upregulated in esophageal squamous carcinoma (ESCC) and is associated with poor prognosis, tumor infiltration, staging, and lymph node metastasis. TESC promotes proliferation, invasion, migration, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) progression in ESCC, as well as activates the AKT pathway. TESC may serve as a prognostic factor and provide a new therapeutic strategy for ESCC.
