Abstract
CEMIP is a protein known for inducing cell migration and binding to hyaluronic acid. Functioning as a hyaluronidase, CEMIP primarily facilitates the breakdown of the extracellular matrix component, hyaluronic acid, thereby regulating various signaling pathways. Recent evidence has highlighted the significant role of CEMIP in different cancers, associating it with diverse pathological states. While identified as a biomarker for several diseases, CEMIP's mechanism in cancer seems distinct. Accumulating data suggests that CEMIP expression is triggered by chemical modifications to itself and other influencing factors. Transcriptionally, chemical alterations to the CEMIP promoter and involvement of transcription factors such as AP-1, HIF, and NF-κB regulate CEMIP levels. Similarly, specific miRNAs have been found to post-transcriptionally regulate CEMIP. This review provides a comprehensive summary of CEMIP's role in various cancers and explores how both transcriptional and post-transcriptional mechanisms control its expression.

Abstract
Sinonasal neoplasms are uncommon diseases, characterized by heterogeneous biological behavior, which frequently results in challenges in differential diagnosis and treatment choice. The aim of this review was to examine the pathogenesis and molecular mechanisms underlying the regulation of tumor initiation and growth, in order to better define diagnostic and therapeutic strategies as well as the prognostic impact of these rare neoplasms. A systematic review according to Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis criteria was conducted between September and November 2022. The authors considered the three main histological patterns of sinonasal tumors, namely Squamous Cell Carcinoma, Intestinal-Type Adenocarcinoma, and Olfactory Neuroblastoma. In total, 246 articles were eventually included in the analysis. The genetic and epigenetic changes underlying the oncogenic process were discussed, through a qualitative synthesis of the included studies. The identification of a comprehensive model of carcinogenesis for each sinonasal cancer subtype is needed, in order to pave the way toward tailored treatment approaches and improve survival for this rare and challenging group of cancers.

Abstract
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has becoming globally public health threat. Recently studies were focus on SARS-CoV-2 RNA to design vaccine and drugs. It was demonstrated that virus RNA could play as sponge to host noncoding RNAs to regulate cellular processes. Bioinformatic research predicted a series of motif on SARS-CoV-2 genome where are targets of human miRNAs. In this study, we used dual-luciferase reporter assays to validate the interaction between 3’UTR of SARS-CoV-2 S (S-3’UTR) gene and bioinformatic predicted targeting miRNAs. The growth of 293T cells and HUVECs with overexpressed S-3’UTR was determined, while miRNAs and IL6, TNF-α levels were checked in this condition. Then, miR-296 and miR-602 mimic were introduced into 293T cells and HUVECs with overexpressed S-3’UTR, respectively, to reveal the underlying regulation mechanism. In results, we screened 19 miRNAs targeting the S-3’UTR, including miR-296 and miR-602. In 293T cell, S-3’UTR could inhibit 293T cell growth through down-regulation of miR-296. By reducing miR-602, S-3’UTR could induce HUVECs cell proliferation, alter the cell cycle, reduce apoptosis, and enhanced IL6 and TNF-αlevel. In conclusion, SARS-CoV-2 RNA could play as sponge of host miRNA to disturb cell growth and cytokine signaling. It suggests an important clue for designing COVID-19 drug and vaccine.

Abstract
Objective Sinonasal inverted papilloma (IP) and its clinical features have been widely studied, but there are few studies delving into its etiology and risk factors. A narrative review was conducted to summarize a contemporary understanding of the potential etiologies of IP, including immunologic/inflammatory, viral, genetic, and environmental causes. Study Design Review. Methods A MEDLINE search was conducted through August 11, 2021, focusing on studies investigating the etiology and risk factors for sinonasal IP and its malignant transformation. Results High‐ and low‐risk human papillomavirus have been connected with the formation of IP, but conflicting evidence exists regarding their role. Occupational and industrial exposures may also contribute to IP formation, while smoking may increase the odds of malignant progression. Exon 20 mutations in EGFR are an active area of research in IP with mixed evidence. Finally, several cell cycle and angiogenic factors such as Ki67, VEGF, and Akt/mTOR have been implicated in the development and progression of IP. Conclusion There continues to be conflicting evidence around the development of IP, but significant progress has been made in recent years. Further study is needed for all these potential etiologies to elucidate risk factors and therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
Simple Summary Inverted papillomas are benign sinonasal tumors that can recur or become cancerous. The mainstay of treatment is surgical resection. We summarize the biology of inverted papillomas and review surgical outcomes in an effort to define the current treatment strategy. Abstract Inverted papillomas (IP) are the most common sinonasal tumor with a tendency for recurrence, potential attachment to the orbit and skull base, and risk of malignant degeneration into squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). While the overall rate of recurrence has decreased with the widespread adoption of high-definition endoscopic optics and advanced surgical tools, there remain challenges in managing tumors that are multiply recurrent or involve vital neurovascular structures. Here, we review the state-of-the-art diagnostic tools for IP and IP-degenerated SCC, contemporary surgical management, and propose a surveillance protocol.

Abstract
Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a novel class of potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets for the treatment of neoplasms. The purpose of this study was to explore the expression profile, potential functions, and diagnostic and clinical significance of lncRNAs in sinonasal inverted papilloma (SNIP). The expression profiles of lncRNAs and mRNAs were analyzed using a microarray. The potential functions and clinical implications of specific lncRNAs were further analyzed by bioinformatics and statistical methods. Microarray analysis identified 1,668 significantly upregulated and 1,767 downregulated lncRNAs in SNIP. Several mRNAs coexpressed with lncRNAs were enriched in some biological processes and cellular signaling pathways related to tumorigenesis. Lnc-AKTIP might interact with a variety of tumor-associated proteins and transcription factors, such as PCBP2, IRF-1, and p53. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis for lnc-AKTIP showed an area under the curve of 0.939. Notably, its expression level was significantly decreased in SNIP tissues versus normal tissues and was associated with SNIP staging. Lnc-AKTIP may serve as a valuable diagnostic biomarker and a therapeutic target for SNIP.

NGS-based miRNome identifies miR-449 cluster as marker of malignant transformation of sinonasal inverted papilloma. Oral Oncol 2021; 122:105554.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE identification of the miRNA expression profile in sinonasal inverted papilloma (SNIP) as a tool to evaluate the risk of transformation into sinonasal squamous cell carcinoma (SNSCC). MATERIALS AND METHODS paired tumour tissues and adjacent normal tissues were obtained from SNIP and SNSCC patients who had undergone surgical resection and used for next-generation sequencing (NGS)-based miRNome analysis. SNIP tissues with concomitant dysplasia (SNIP-DISP) were used as malignant transition samples. By comparing the deregulated miRNAs in SNIP and SNSCC, an miRNA cluster was identified and its physio- and clinical-pathological value was predicted. RESULTS NGS identified 54 miRNAs significantly down- and upregulated in SNIP. Among them, the miR-449 cluster was upregulated in SNIP and could differentiate the benign tumour from normal tissue. Notably, the miR-449 cluster was found to be significantly underexpressed in SNSCC, and the cluster markedly changed in SNIP during the malignant transition into SNSCC. miRNA enrichment analysis and GO analysis revealed that miR-449 is involved in apoptotic and cell proliferation pathways. CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggest that miR-449 may be involved in the molecular pathogenesis of SNIP and its malignant transformation into SNSCC. miR-449 might therefore be a useful tumour biomarker in patients with SNIP and may also have the potential to be used as a tool for detecting and monitoring the course of the possible malignant transformation.

BIOLOGY 2021; 10:biology10090832. [PMID: 34571708 PMCID: PMC8467863 DOI: 10.3390/biology10090832] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/12/2021] [Revised: 08/22/2021] [Accepted: 08/24/2021] [Indexed: 12/28/2022]
Abstract
Several researchers have testified that feeding with diets high in rice grain induces subacute ruminal acidosis and increases the risk of gastrointestinal inflammation. However, whether diets high in rice grain affect spleen growth and related molecular events remains unknown. Therefore, the present study was conducted to investigate the effects of feeding a high-concentrate (HC) diet based on rice on the growth and microRNA expression profiles in goat spleen. Sixteen Liuyang black goats were used as an artiodactyl model and fed an HC diet for five weeks. Visceral organ weight, LPS (lipopolysaccharide) concentration in the liver and spleen, and microRNA expression were analyzed. The results showed that feeding an HC diet increased the heart and spleen indexes and decreased the liver LPS concentration (p < 0.05). In total, 596 microRNAs were identified, and twenty-one of them were differentially expressed in the spleens of goats fed with the HC diet. Specifically, several microRNAs (miR-107, miR-512, miR-51b, miR-191, miR-296, miR-326, miR-6123 and miR-433) were upregulated. Meanwhile, miR-30b, miR-30d, miR-1468, miR-502a, miR-145, miR-139, miR-2284f, miR-101 and miR-92a were downregulated. Additionally, their target gene CPPED1, CDK6, CCNT1 and CASP7 expressions were inhibited (p < 0.05). These results indicated that the HC diet promoted the growth of the heart and spleen. The HC diet also regulated the expression of miR-326, miR-512-3p, miR-30b, miR-30d, miR-502a and their target genes (CPPED1, CDK6 and CCNT1) related to the enhancement of splenocyte proliferation. The HC diet also modulated the expression of miR-15b-5p, miR-1468 and miR-92a, related to the suppression of splenocyte apoptosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Smokeless Tobacco (SLT) contains 9 times more nicotine than Smoked Tobacco (SMT). The carcinogenic effect of nicotine is intensified by converting nicotine-to-nicotine-derived Nitrosamines (NDNs). METHODS A review of the literature was conducted with a tailored search strategy to unravel the novel pathways and mechanisms of nicotine-induced oral carcinogenesis. RESULTS Nicotine and NDNs act on nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptors (nAChRs) as agonists. Nicotine facilitates cravings through α4β2nAChR and α7nAChR, via enhanced brain dopamine release. Nicotine binding to nAChR promotes proliferation, migration, invasion, chemoresistance, radioresistance, and metastasis of oral cancer cells. Nicotine binding to α7nAChR on keratinocytes triggers Ras/Raf-1/MEK1/ERK cascade promoting anti-apoptosis and pro-proliferative effects. Furthermore, the nicotine-enhanced metastasis is subdued on nAChR blockade through reduced nuclear localization of p-EGFR. CONCLUSION Protracted exposure to nicotine/NDN augments cancer-stimulatory α7nAChR and desensitizes cancer inhibitory α4β2nAChR. Since nAChRs dictate both addictive and carcinogenic effects of nicotine, it seems counterintuitive to designate nicotine just as an addictive agent devoid of any carcinogenicity.

Abstract
Phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome 10 (PTEN) is a key tumor suppressor in the development and progression of different tumor types. Emerging data indicate that small reductions in PTEN protein levels can promote cancer. PTEN protein levels are tightly controlled by a plethora of mechanisms beginning with epigenetic and transcriptional regulation and ending with control of protein synthesis and stability. PTEN messenger RNA (mRNA) is also subject to exquisite regulation by microRNAs, coding and long noncoding RNAs, and RNA-binding proteins. Additionally, PTEN mRNA is markedly influenced by alternative splicing and variable polyadenylation. Herein we provide a synoptic description of the current understanding of the complex regulatory landscape of PTEN mRNA regulation including several specific processes that modulate its stability and expression, in the context of PTEN loss-associated cancers.

Abstract
Background Inverted papilloma (IP) is an unusual type of benign tumor that has high recurrence rates and the potential to transform into squamous cell carcinomas (SCC). The mechanism of the transformation process from IP to IP-SCC is uncertain and there is no consensus regarding the best practice for IP-SCC detection. The goal of this study is to identify the best clinical methods to detect for IP-SCC. Methods An evidence-based review was performed using Medline and Ovid to obtain all articles up to October 10th, 2019 pertaining to identification of IP malignant transformation. All manuscripts discussing clinical methods or biomarkers were included. Results Based on clinical research studies, convoluted cerebriform pattern and apparent diffusion coefficient values on Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) can help differentiate benign IP from SCC and increased SUVmax on PET/CT is associated with higher probability of malignancy although not as specific. No consensus about the best biomarker for IP-SCC has been reached among researchers and continues to be exploratory. Conclusion Endoscopy with biopsy is the gold standard practice to identify IP-SCC; however, MRI is the preferred imaging modality to recognize malignant transformation in cases where biopsy is difficult. Multiple biomarkers have shown positive results, but no single indicator with clinical significance for monitoring malignant transformation process has been found.

Comparative transcriptome analysis of sinonasal inverted papilloma and associated squamous cell carcinoma: Out-HOXing developmental genes. Head Neck 2019; 41:3090-3104. [PMID: 31041828 DOI: 10.1002/hed.25795] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/15/2019] [Revised: 03/26/2019] [Accepted: 04/23/2019] [Indexed: 12/20/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Sinonasal papilloma has a tendency toward local destruction, recurrence, and malignant transformation. This study aimed to unravel mechanisms in the malignant transformation of sinonasal papillomas using RNA-seq. METHODS The cohort consisted of 37 consecutive patients; tumor histology included a continuum spectrum (sinonasal papillomas/dysplastic/carcinomas-in-situ/invasive squamous cell carcinomas). These were microdissected and RNA was subjected to whole-transcriptome shotgun sequencing. RESULTS RNA-seq and pathway analysis showed that the highest expressed genes/potential drivers were development- and differentiation-related genes. The protein expression of six highly upregulated genes (HOXA9, EN1, DUX4, CA9, CD1a, and CK5/6) validated the RNA-seq results. HOXA9 and CA9 were found to be expressed in most of the carcinoma samples but were largely negative in papillomas; all of the CA9-negative carcinomas were recurrent. CONCLUSIONS We conclude that sinonasal carcinomas arising from papillomas are mainly defined by overexpressed developmental/homeobox genes, which provide the potential for transformation/plasticity, along with differentiation and proliferation behavior of neoplastic cells. Our results support HOXA9 and CA9 as biomarkers for carcinomas, with CA9 emerging as a predictive marker of recurrence.

Abstract
Aim: To analyze the expression profile, diagnostic and clinicopathological significances of miRNAs in sinonasal inverted papilloma (SNIP). Materials & methods: The expression profile of miRNAs was analyzed using a miRNA microarray approach. The potential functions and clinical significances of specific miRNAs were further analyzed by bioinformatics and statistical methods. Results: The microarray assay identified 37 significantly upregulated and 21 downregulated miRNAs in SNIP. Of nine miRNAs randomly selected, the expression levels of seven miRNAs were confirmed by quantitative real-time PCR. The potential target genes of several candidate miRNAs were enriched in some biological processes and cellular signaling pathways related to tumorigenesis. Receiever operating characteristic curve analysis for miR-214-3p indicated an area under the curve of 0.932. Notably, its expression level was significantly decreased in SNIP tissues and associated with SNIP staging and recurrence. Conclusion: MiR-214-3p can possibly serve as a valuable biomarker and a therapeutic target for SNIP.

Abstract
Atherosclerosis has been recognized as an inflammatory disease involving the vascular wall. MicroRNAs are a group of small noncoding RNAs to regulate gene expression at the transcriptional level through mRNA degradation or translation repression. Recent studies suggest that miR-296 may play crucial roles in the regulation of angiogenesis, inflammatory response, cholesterol metabolism, hypertension, cellular proliferation and apoptosis. In this review, we primarily discussed the molecular targets of miR-296 involved in the development of atherosclerosis, which may provide a basis for future investigation and a better understanding of the biological functions of miR-296 in atherosclerosis.
