Pathol Res Pract 2024; 256:155257. [PMID: 38537524 DOI: 10.1016/j.prp.2024.155257] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/24/2024] [Revised: 03/05/2024] [Accepted: 03/08/2024] [Indexed: 04/14/2024]
Abstract
Circular RNAs (circRNAs) constitute a recently identified category of closed continuous loop RNA transcripts, serving as a subset of competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs) with the capacity to modulate genes by acting as microRNA sponges. In the context of cancer growth, numerous investigations have explored the potential functions of circRNAs, revealing their diverse functions either as oncogenes, promoting cancer progression, or as tumor suppressors, mitigating disease development. Among these, circRNA ADAM9 (Circ-ADAM9) is now recognized as an important player in a variety of mechanisms, both physiological and pathological, especially in cancer. The aberrant expression of Circ-ADAM9 has been observed across multiple human malignancies, implying a significant involvement in tumorigenesis. This comprehensive review aims to synthesize recent findings elucidating the function of Circ-ADAM9 in many malignancies. Additionally, the review explores the possibility of Circ-ADAM9 as a valuable biomarker, offering insights into its prognostic, diagnostic, and therapeutic implications. By summarizing the latest discoveries in this field, the review contributes to our understanding of the multifaceted contribution of Circ-ADAM9 in tumor biology and its potential applications in clinical settings.

Wei L, Li B, Long J, Fu Y, Feng B. circ_UTRN inhibits ferroptosis of ARJ21 cells to attenuate acute pancreatitis progression by regulating the miR-760-3p/FOXO1/GPX4 axis. 3 Biotech 2024; 14:84.

Abstract
Aim To explore the function of circ_UTRN in acute pancreatitis (AP). Methods After exposing AR42J cells to caerulein, the levels of circ_UTRN, miR-760-3p, and glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) were determined by quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Additionally, GPX4 and forkhead box O1 (FOXO1) protein levels were assessed by western blot. The levels of oxidative stress and ferroptosis in the supernatant of the treated AR42J cells were also assessed using commercial kits. Results circ_UTRN inhibited caerulein-induced oxidative stress and ferroptosis by binding with miR-760-3p. Additionally, miR-760-3p directly targeted FOXO1, thereby regulating GPX4 levels. Furthermore, GPX4 knockdown abolished the effect of miR-760-3p downregulation in AP. Conclusion circ_UTRN inhibited oxidative stress and ferroptosis by regulating the miR-760-3p/FOXO1/GPX4 axis. This is a potential new treatment strategy for AP.

Blood routine examination: a simple way for differential diagnosis of immunoglobulin A vasculitis with abdominal involvement and appendicitis in children. Updates Surg 2022; 74:1683-1689. [PMID: 35737259 DOI: 10.1007/s13304-022-01299-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/09/2021] [Accepted: 05/04/2022] [Indexed: 10/17/2022]
Abstract
To explore the value of blood routine examination indexes in the differential diagnosis of immunoglobulin A vasculitis (IgAV) with abdominal involvement and appendicitis in children. Forty-seven patients with IgAV and abdominal involvement, 95 cases with appendicitis, and 48 healthy children were enrolled in this study. Demographic and laboratory data were retrospectively recorded from medical files. The levels of serum percentage of lymphocytes (LYM%), percentage of eosinophils (E%), red cell volume distribution width (RDW) and platelet (PLT) count were higher, while blood cells (WBC) count, percentage of neutrophils (N%), percentage of monocytes (M%), mean platelet volume (MPV), platelet distribution width and C-reactive protein were lower in the group of IgAV with abdominal involvement compared to appendicitis group (P < 0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed LYM% (odds ratio (OR) = 1.34, P = 0.001) and RDW (OR = 2.96, P = 0.045) were independent risk factors for IgAV with abdominal involvement. N% (OR = 1.270, P = 0.006) and MPV (OR = 51.15, P = 0.042) were independently associated with appendicitis. Using receiver operating characteristic analysis, the optimal cut-off values (sensitivity and specificity) respectively were 42.17% (95.7%, 100.0%) for LYM%, 12.65% (83.0%, 83.2%) for RDW, 61.5% (91.6%, 97.9%) for NE% and 10.1fL (78.9%, 75.4%) for MPV, with the AUC values of 0.989, 0.881, 0.985, 0.810, respectively. Blood routine examination indices, especially the N%, LYM%, RDW, and MPV, can be used for simple differential diagnosis of IgAV with abdominal involvement and appendicitis.
