RUBCNL (Rubicon Like Autophagy Enhancer)

In addition, tanshinone I alleviated the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment. In summary, tanshinone I blocks glycolysis to regulate histone H3 lysine 18 lactylation (H3K18la), which inhibits ovarian cancer cell growth, revealing the anticancer mechanism of tanshinone I.

A panel combining PJ-MDMs and plasma CA19-9 discriminates PDAC from both healthy and disease control groups with high accuracy. This provides support for combining pancreatic juice and blood-based biomarkers for enhancing diagnostic sensitivity and successful early PDAC detection.

In line with this finding, RUBCNL expression limits assembly of RIPK1-TNFRSF1A/TNFR1 complex I, suggesting that complex formation between RUBCNL and RIPK1 represses TNF signaling. These results provide new insights into the crosstalk between the RIPK1-mediated cell death and autophagy machineries and suggest that RUBCNL, due to its functional duality in autophagy and apoptosis/necroptosis, could be targeted to improve the therapeutic efficacy of MSCs.

In the validation cohort, the sensitivity of the two-gene panel for detecting EC, GC, and CRC was 60.0%, 30.0%, and 30.0%, respectively, with a specificity of 90.0%. The identified methylation marker panel provided a potential non-invasive strategy for EC detection, but further validation should be performed in more clinical centers.

Specificity may surpass cytology allowing the potential to triage patients more effectively to colposcopy or conservative management. Our analysis has also elucidated several other genes which show promise for use in methylation marker panels, combined panels may provide greater accuracy than stand-alone methylation markers.
