Abstract
Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is a kind of oral malignant tumor with the highest incidence. This study investigated whether sevoflurane (SEV) inhibited OSCC cell progression by regulating circular RNA_0000857 (circ_0000857). OSCC cells were anesthetized with SEV at different concentrations. The expression of circ_0000857 and microRNA-145-5p (miR-145-5p) were detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Cell viability was assayed by the Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8), and cell migration and invasion were examined by the wound-healing assay and transwell. Tube formation assay detected angiogenesis. Western blot was used to detect the expression of related proteins. Compared with the control group, SEV inhibited OSCC cell migration, invasion, and angiogenesis. SEV treatment significantly decreased circ_0000857 expression level, but increased miR-145-5p expression level in SCC4 and HSC3 cells. MiR-145-5p was a target of circ_0000857, and miR-145-5p inhibitor reversed the suppressing effects mediated by circ_0000857 silencing on OSCC cell migration, invasion, and angiogenesis. SEV inhibited the level of matrix metalloproteinases 2 (MMP2), MMP9, and vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA) protein by regulating the circ_0000857/miR-145-5p axis. In all, SEV regulated the migration, invasion, and angiogenesis of OSCC cells through the circ_0000857/miR-145-5p axis, which provided a basis for the potential role of SEV in the treatment of OSCC.

Abstract
Ovarian cancer is one of the female reproductive system tumors. Chemotherapy is used for advanced ovarian cancer patients; however, drug resistance is a pivotal cause of chemotherapeutic failure. Hence, it is critical to explore the molecular mechanisms of drug resistance of ovarian cancer cells and to ameliorate chemoresistance. Noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) have been identified to critically participate in drug sensitivity in a variety of human cancers, including ovarian cancer. Among ncRNAs, circRNAs sponge miRNAs and prevent miRNAs from regulation of their target mRNAs. CircRNAs can interact with DNA or proteins to modulate gene expression. In this review, we briefly describe the biological functions of circRNAs in the development and progression of ovarian cancer. Moreover, we discuss the underneath regulatory molecular mechanisms of circRNAs on governing drug resistance in ovarian cancer. Furthermore, we mention the novel strategies to overcome drug resistance via targeting circRNAs in ovarian cancer. Due to that circRNAs play a key role in modulation of drug resistance in ovarian cancer, targeting circRNAs could be a novel approach for attenuation of chemoresistance in ovarian cancer.

Sevoflurane exerts protection against myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury and pyroptosis through the circular RNA PAN3/microRNA-29b-3p/stromal cell-derived factor 4 axis. Int Immunopharmacol 2023; 120:110219. [PMID: 37270931 DOI: 10.1016/j.intimp.2023.110219] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/09/2023] [Revised: 04/04/2023] [Accepted: 04/18/2023] [Indexed: 06/06/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Sevoflurane is suggested to exert protective functions against myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI). However, the particular mechanism remains elusive. Therefore, this research explored the mechanism of sevoflurane in MIRI-induced damage and pyroptosis. METHODS Subsequent to gain-or loss-of-function assays or/and sevoflurane treatment, the MIRI model was developed in rats. Cardiac function and body and heart weight of rats were evaluated, followed by measurement of apoptosis and creatine kinase MB (CK-MB), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), and pyroptosis-related protein levels. After loss-of-function assays or/and sevoflurane treatment in human cardiomyocytes (HCMs), the hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) model was constructed. In HCMs, cell viability, apoptosis, and pyroptosis-related proteins were detected. Circular RNA PAN3 (circPAN3), microRNA (miR)-29b-3p, and stromal cell-derived factor 4 (SDF4) expression was determined in rat myocardial tissues and HCMs. Mechanistically, interactions among circPAN3, miR-29b-3p, and SDF4 were analyzed. RESULTS MIRI modeling increased miR-29b-3p expression and diminished circPAN3 and SDF4 expression in H/R-treated HCMs and MIRI rats, which was nullified by sevoflurane preconditioning. Mechanistically, circPAN3 negatively targeted miR-29b-3p to upregulate SDF4. Moreover, sevoflurane preconditioning reduced heart weight/body weight ratio, LDH, CK-MB, myocardial infarct size, left ventricular end-diastolic pressure, apoptosis, and pyroptosis, while elevating the increase and decrease of left ventricular pressure (±dp/dt max) and left ventricular systolic pressure in MIRI rats. In addition, sevoflurane preconditioning augmented viability while diminishing apoptosis and pyroptosis in H/R-treated HCMs. Moreover, circPAN3 silencing or miR-29b-3p overexpression abrogated alleviatory effects of sevoflurane on myocardial injury and pyroptosis in vitro. CONCLUSION Sevoflurane treatment ameliorated myocardial injury and pyroptosis in MIRI via circPAN3/miR-29b-3p/SDF4 axis.

Abstract
Background Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have emerged as vital regulators of the initiation and progression of diverse kinds of human cancers. In this study, we explored the role of hsa_circ_0000231 and its downstream pathway in CRC. Methods The expression profile of circRNAs in 5 pairs of CRC tissues and adjacent normal tissues were analyzed by Microarray. Quantitative real-time PCR and in situ hybridization and Base Scope Assay were used to determine the level and prognostic values of hsa_circ_0000231. Then, functional experiments in vitro and in vivo were performed to investigate the effects of hsa_circ_0000231 on cell proliferation. Mechanistically, fluorescent in situ hybridization, dual luciferase reporter assay, RNA pull-down and RNA immunoprecipitation experiments were performed to confirm the interaction between hsa_circ_0000231 and IGF2BP3 or has_miR-375. Results We acquired data through circRNA microarray profiles, showing that the expression of hsa_circ_0000231 was upregulated in CRC primary tissues compared to adjacent normal tissues, which was indicated poor prognosis of patients with CRC. Functional analysis indicated that inhibition of hsa_circ_0000231 in CRC cell lines could suppress CRC cell proliferation as well as tumorigenesis in vitro and in vivo. The mechanistic analysis showed that hsa_circ_0000231 might, on the one hand, act as a competing endogenous RNA of miR-375 to promote cyclin D2 (CCND2) and, on the other hand, bind to the IGF2BP3 protein to prevent CCND2 degradation. Conclusions The findings suggested that hsa_circ_0000231 facilitated CRC progression by sponging miR-375 or binding to IGF2BP3 to modulate CCND2, implying that hsa_circ_0000231 might be a potential new diagnostic and therapeutic biomarker of CRC.

Abstract
Many factors affect the prognosis of patients undergoing tumor surgery, and anesthesia is one of the potential influencing factors. In general anesthesia, inhalation anesthesia is widely used in the clinic because of its strong curative effect and high controllability. However, the effect of inhalation anesthetics on the tumor is still controversial. More and more research has proved that inhalation anesthetics can intervene in local recurrence and distant metastasis of tumor by acting on tumor biological behavior, immune response, and gene regulation. In this paper, we reviewed the research progress of diverse inhalation anesthetics promoting or inhibiting cancer in the critical events of tumor recurrence and metastasis, and compared the effects of inhalation anesthetics on patients' prognosis in clinical studies, to provide theoretical reference for anesthesia management of patients undergoing tumor surgery.

Abstract
Circular RNAs (circ) have been reported to serve crucial roles in the regulation of cancer occurrence and development. The present study aimed to investigate the role of circ-acetyl-CoA carboxylase α (ACACA) in the progression of cervical cancer (CC). The expression levels of circ-ACACA in several CC cell lines were first determined using reverse transcription-quantitative PCR. circ-ACACA expression was subsequently knocked down to evaluate its effects on the viability, proliferation, apoptosis, invasion and migration of CC cells using MTT, colony formation, TUNEL, transwell and wound healing assays, respectively. 13C-labeling of intracellular metabolites and analysis of glucose consumption and lactate production were performed to determine the levels of glycolysis. In addition, the expression levels of endoplasmic reticulum oxidoreductase 1α (ERO1α; ERO1A) and glycolysis-related proteins were analyzed using western blotting. The binding interactions among circ-ACACA, microRNA (miR)-582-5p and ERO1A were validated using dual-luciferase reporter assays. Subsequently, rescue experiments were performed to determine the potential underlying mechanism by which circ-ACACA affected CC cell functions. The results revealed that circ-ACACA expression was significantly upregulated in CC cells and silencing of circ-ACACA significantly reduced the proliferation, invasion and migration, and promoted the apoptosis of CC cells. Knockdown of circ-ACACA markedly inhibited glycolysis in CC cells. However, the effects of silencing of circ-ACACA on CC cells were reversed following transfection with the miR-582-5p inhibitor or pcDNA3.1-ERO1A overexpression plasmid. In conclusion, to the best of our knowledge, the present study was the first to investigate the role of circ-ACACA in CC progression. The results suggested that circ-ACACA may promote CC tumorigenesis and glycolysis by targeting the miR-582-5p/ERO1A signaling axis. Therefore, circ-ACACA may be a promising biomarker for CC diagnosis and treatment.
