HIPK2 (Homeodomain Interacting Protein Kinase 2)

The S. typhimurium-regulated circHIPK2/miR-124-3p axis is pivotal in CRC pathogenesis and holds promise as a molecular therapeutic target for treating colitis-associated colorectal cancer.

In conclusion, an axis involving circHIPK2, miR-889-3p, MCTS1 and IL-6 regulates the malignant progression of LSCC. circHIPK2 expression may serve as a novel diagnostic and prognostic biomarker for LSCC.

Spatial transcriptome analysis is one of the breakthroughs in the field of medical biotechnology as this can map the analytes such as RNA information in their physical location in tissue sections. Our findings illuminate previously unexplored spatial expression profiles of key biomarkers in diffuse high-grade glioma, offering novel insight for the development of therapeutic strategies in glioma.

OSER1, HIPK2, and DDRGK1 were identified as biomarkers for DR. The study findings provide novel insights into the pathogenesis of DR.

These findings revealed a previously unknown regulation, function, and underlying mechanism of circHIPK2 in cancer cells. Hence, circHIPK2 may have a prognostic value and serve as a potential target for colon cancer treatment.

Verbascoside inhibited the progression of OSCC by inhibiting the METTL3-regulated miR-31-5p/HIPK2 axis. These findings suggested that verbascoside might be an effective drug for OSCC therapy.

It's difficult for patients with complex morphology to make accurate diagnosis solely based on morphology and immunohistochemistry. But molecular detection is an effective method for further determining pathological subtypes.

The study concludes that PRNT is upregulated in oxaliplatin-resistant CRC cells and modulates the expression of HIPK2 by sponging ZNF184. This regulatory mechanism enhances CRC progression and resistance to oxaliplatin, positioning PRNT as a promising therapeutic target for CRC patients undergoing oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy.

These collective results innovatively documented that AU regulated the unique crosstalk between NRF2 and HIPK2 to coordinate oxidative stress, autophagy, and apoptosis against DIC without compromising the anti-tumor effect of DOX in vitro.

In vivo experiments suggested that miR-147b inhibition suppressed the growth of xenograft tumors in nude mice, while HIPK2 knockdown counteracted its effect. Collectively, our work reveals a novel miR-147b-mediated carcinogenic regulatory network in PCa that may be a viable target for PCa treatment.

Collectively, these data demonstrate that REST-restrained EPB41L4A-AS2 modulates LSCC development via regulating miR-1254/HIPK2 pathway.
