RBPMS (RNA-binding protein with multiple splicing)

The TNBC prognostic signature comprising four interferon genes (STXBP1, LAMP3, CD276, and POLR2F) was identified, with their expression significantly correlated with the infiltration abundance of multiple immune cells and the drug sensitivity of 30 diverse drugs (ARQ-680, Fluphenazine, and Chelerythrine, etc.). In the prognostic signature and the ceRNA axes, STXBP1, RBPMS-AS1, and FAM198B-AS1 were first reported as potential biomarkers of TNBC. These findings have the potential to provide new insights into the mechanisms driving TNBC tumorigenesis and development.

Transcriptomic analysis of Fn14-overexpressing retinas in the ONC model further revealed significant downregulation of suppressor of cytokine signaling 3 (Socs3), a finding validated in both injury models. Our study highlights Fn14 as a key regulator of optic nerve injury, capable of enhancing RGC survival and axon regeneration.

The NLRP3 inhibitor MCC950 reversed these effects, confirming the involvement of this pathway. These findings suggest that RBPMS2 may be a potential therapeutic target for inducing pyroptosis in gastric cancer cells, providing novel insights into treatment strategies for gastric cancer.

Furthermore, ANKRD10-2 knockdown significantly rescued the migration enhancement induced by RBPMS depletion in BLCA cells. Taken together, this study revealed a mechanism whereby RBPMS suppresses the migration and invasion of BLCA cells by attenuating MYC pathway activity via the AS of ANKRD10.

Our case report strengthens the evidence that crizotinib may be a viable treatment option for patients with ICC with a c-MET tyrosine kinase fusion, necessitating additional clinical investigation.

As demonstrated in our PTC cohort, DNA CGP and RNA CGP may be complementary for fusion detection in certain tumor types. RNA CGP complements DNA CGP by detecting fusions that cannot be efficiently baited on DNA CGP, while DNA CGP may complement RNA CGP by detecting fusions in poor quality (e.g., old archival) samples when RNA sequencing may not be not technically feasible. Clinically relevant fusions detected in this retrospectively profiled PTC cohort included therapeutically targetable fusion events (e.g., RET, NTRK, ALK) and a PAX8::PPARG fusion, which is suggestive of a follicular variant PTC.

There also existed a targeting relationship and negative interplay between PLCL1 and miR-19a-3p. In short, RBPMS-AS1 sponges miR-19a-3p and represses the growth and EMT of CC cells via enhancing PLCL1-mediated pyroptosis.

A colon cancer analysis subsystem was integrated into our Kaplan-Meier plotter that can be used to mine the entire database (https://www.kmplot.com). The portal has the potential to be employed for the identification and prioritization of promising biomarkers and therapeutic target candidates in multiple solid tumors including, among others, breast, lung, ovarian, gastric, pancreatic, and colon cancers.

Our data suggest that the 10 candidate genes would be an excellent marker for distinguishing OSC from OCCC. Furthermore, the molecular signatures of the 10 genes may enlighten us on the differences in carcinogenesis, and provide a theoretical basis for OCCC's resistance to chemotherapy in the future.

In conclusion, NTRK gene fusion is infrequent in patients with PTC. Linkage of biobank samples to EHRs is feasible in describing the characteristics and outcomes of patients with PTC and potentially other cancer types.

In addition, plasma CAT1 levels are substantially increased in patients with lung cancer compared to non-cancer control subjects. Our findings reveal an intrinsic connection between cancer-specific upregulation of CAT1 and cancer progression, show the regulation of NOTCH signaling in cancer by a 3'-tRF, and highlight its great clinical potential.
