Abstract
PURPOSE Disulfidptosis, a newly identified form of cell death, is triggered by disulfide stress. Herein, a unique signature was developed based on disulfidptosis-related lncRNAs (DRlncRNAs) for the prognostic and immune landscape prediction of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). METHODS Transcriptome, somatic mutation, and clinical data were acquired at The Cancer Genome Atlas database. Individuals were partitioned into training and test cohorts at a 1:1 ratio to facilitate the development of a DRlncRNA signature using the least absolute shrinkage and selection operation method. Based on the median risk score, all HNSCC individuals were stratified into the high-risk group (HRG) and low-risk group (LRG). Kaplan-Meier survival and time-dependent receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analyses were used to estimate the prognostic value, and a nomogram was generated for survival prediction. To provide a more comprehensive assessment, the tumor microenvironment, functional enrichment, immune cell infiltration, and immunotherapeutic sensitivity were explored between LRG and HRG. RESULTS A DRlncRNA signature was established with 10 DRlncRNAs. The corresponding values of areas under the ROC curves for 1-, 3-, and 5-year overall survival were 0.710, 0.692, and 0.640. A more favorable prognosis was noted in the patients with lower risk, along with higher immune scores, increased immune-related functions, and immune cell infiltration, as well as improved response to the immunotherapeutic intervention in comparison with individuals at higher risk. CONCLUSION These findings demonstrate that the developed DRlncRNA signature holds promise as a reliable prognostic marker and predictor of immunotherapy response in HNSCC patients.

Abstract
Long non-coding RNA [LncRNA] dysregulation has been seen in many human cancers, including several kinds of leukemia, which is still a fatal disease with a poor prognosis. LncRNAs have been demonstrated to function as tumor suppressors or oncogenes in leukemia. This study covers current research findings on the role of lncRNAs in the prognosis and diagnosis of leukemia. Based on recent results, several lncRNAs are emerging as biomarkers for the prognosis, diagnosis, and even treatment outcome prediction of leukemia and have been shown to play critical roles in controlling leukemia cell activities, such as proliferation, cell death, metastasis, and drug resistance. As a result, lncRNA profiles may have superior predictive and diagnostic potential in leukemia. Accordingly, this review concentrates on the significance of lncRNAs in leukemia progression based on their chromosomal position.

Arch Dermatol Res 2023; 315:1593-1601.

Abstract
Hypertrophic scar (HS) is a fibrotic disease caused by skin injury. Competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) has been demonstrated to implicate in the regulation of cell malignant phenotypes. This research aims to reveal the effect of catenin beta 1 (CTNNB1) on the functions of hypertrophic scar fibroblasts (HSFBs) and its role in a ceRNA network. RNA expression level was assessed by quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). The proliferation and apoptosis of HSFB was detected via Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay and flow cytometry analysis. Mechanism experiments included RNA pull down assay, luciferase reporter assay and RNA-binding protein immunoprecipitation (RIP) assay were applied to analyze the upstream molecular mechanism of CTNNB1. CTNNB1 was highly expressed in HSFB. CTNNB1 depletion repressed malignant growth of HSFB. Mechanically, CTNNB1 was targeted by microRNA-320b (miR-320b) in HSFB. Small nucleolar RNA host gene 1 (SNHG1) aced as a ceRNA to upregulate CTNNB1 expression via sponging miR-320b in HSFB. CTNNB1 overexpression could reverse the impact of SNHG1 depletion on the proliferation and apoptosis of HSFB. SNHG1 acts as a ceRNA in modulating HSFB proliferation and apoptosis through miR-320b/CTNNB1 axis. SNHG1 act as a ceRNA to promote HSFB growth by sponging miR-320b to upregulate CTNNB1.

Abstract
Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) represent an important group of endogenous RNAs with limit protein-encoding capability, with a length of more than 200 nucleotides. Emerging evidence have demonstrated that lncRNAs are greatly involved in multiple cancers by playing critical roles in tumor initiation and progression. Long intergenic non-protein coding RNA 460 (LINC00460), a novel cancer-related lncRNA, exhibits abnormal expression and oncogenic function in multiple cancers, and positively correlates with poor clinical characteristics of cancer patients. LINC00460 has also been shown to be a promising biomarker for diagnosis as well as prognostic evaluation in cancer patients. In this review, we briefly summarized recent knowledge on the expression, functional roles, molecular mechanisms, and diagnostic and prognostic values of LINC00460 in human malignancies.

Abstract
Long intergenic non-coding RNAs (lincRNAs) establish a group of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) that have no overlap with protein-coding genes. These transcripts have been found to affect chromatin configurations, arrange high-order nuclear structures, function as scaffolds for proteins and RNAs and serve as molecular decoys. LINC00460 is a member of this group of lincRNAs that participate in the pathoetiology of cancers. This lincRNA has been found to serve as a sponge for a number of tumor suppressor miRNAs, including miR-539, miR-1224-5p, miR-612, miR-342-3p, miR-485-5p and miR-149-5p, and increase expression of oncogenic targets of these miRNAs. Moreover, through targeting miRNAs that regulate sensitivity to chemotherapeutic agents, it can affect response of cancer cells to these agents. In the current manuscript, we tended to describe the role of LINC00460 in this process through summarizing the results of in vitro, in vivo and human studies.

Abstract
Preeclampsia (PE) and Intrauterine Growth Restriction (IUGR) are two pregnancy-specific placental disorders with high maternal, fetal, and neonatal morbidity and mortality rates worldwide. The identification biomarkers involved in the dysregulation of PE and IUGR are fundamental for developing new strategies for early detection and management of these pregnancy pathologies. Several studies have demonstrated the importance of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) as essential regulators of many biological processes in cells and tissues, and the placenta is not an exception. In this review, we summarize the importance of lncRNAs in the regulation of trophoblasts during the development of PE and IUGR, and other placental disorders.
