RBM7 suppresses mitochondrial dysfunction and ferroptosis by destabilizing FBXL16 mRNA to enhance Temozolomide resistance in glioblastoma. (PubMed, Mol Genet Genomics)
An actinomycin D assay analyzed FBXL16 mRNA stability. RBM7 promotes TMZ resistance by suppressing mitochondrial dysfunction and ferroptosis through destabilization of FBXL16. Targeting the RBM7-FBXL16 axis may represent a novel strategy to overcome GBM chemoresistance.

Investigating the prognostic potential of PTPN11 gene in papillary thyroid carcinoma: A comprehensive study of bulk and single cell transcriptome. (PubMed, Medicine (Baltimore))
It exhibited strong binding affinities with VX-11e, irinotecan, and dactinomycin. Endothelial cells were identified as key cells; the occurrence of PTC reduced their quantity and affected the frequency/intensity of their interactions with mast cells. In conclusion, PTPN11 holds promise as a prognostic marker for PTC and is of great value for clinical management.

Circular RNA collagen type V alpha 1 exerts a carcinogenic role in renal cell carcinoma via modulating microRNA-3940-3p/Karyopherin α2 axis. (PubMed, J Physiol Pharmacol)
The characteristics of circCOL5A1 were verified by RNase R and actinomycin D experiments, and its subcellular localization was analyzed by PARIS kit...CircCOL5A1 promoted cell proliferation, migration, invasion, EMT and glycolysis by cytoplasmic adsorption of miR-3940-3p and up-regulation of KPNA2 in RCC. CircCOL5A1 is anticipated to be a promising molecular target for diagnosing and treating RCC.

Lactylation-driven NSUN2-mediated RNA m5C modification promotes perineural invasion in pancreatic cancer. (PubMed, Theranostics)
Mechanistic interrogation combined NSUN2 knockout, CRISPR knock-in mutants at K692 (K692R/E), co-immunoprecipitation, RIP-seq, MeRIP-qPCR, and actinomycin-D chase to test mRNA binding, m5C modification, and stability of CDCP1/STC1... This study identifies lactate-driven NSUN2 K692 lactylation as a key driver of perineural invasion in PDAC. We define a lactate-NSUN2-m5C-CDCP1/STC1 axis that links metabolic stress-induced lysine lactylation to mRNA methylation-dependent stabilization of pro-invasive transcripts, highlighting actionable therapeutic targets to restrain neural invasion and improve patient outcomes.

DDX3X promotes ILF3 stability to accelerate neuroblastoma progression via M2 macrophage polarization. (PubMed, Brain Res)
Actinomycin D treatment combined with RT-qPCR was used to assess ILF3 mRNA stability...In vivo, DDX3X inhibitor, RK-33, markedly inhibited NB tumor growth and metastasis and enhanced M1 macrophage polarization, which was partially reversed by ILF3 overexpression. DDX3X promotes NB progression by stabilizing ILF3 mRNA, thereby facilitating M2 macrophage polarization.

A novel positive-feedback loop between CEBPA and NAT10 promotes non-small cell lung cancer progression. (PubMed, Cytotechnology)
Additionally, mRNA stability was evaluated using actinomycin D assay...NAT10 catalyzed ac4C acetylation on CEBPA mRNA, enhancing its stability and increasing CEBPA protein expression, thereby promoting the malignant progression of NSCLC. The identification of this feedback loop provides a preclinical rationale for developing NSCLC therapeutic strategies targeting NAT10 or CEBPA.

The role of CSTF2 in gastric cancer: implications for therapy. (PubMed, Eur J Med Res)
CSTF2 promotes gastric cancer progression by post-transcriptionally stabilizing TGM2 mRNA, and its overexpression is closely related to poor prognosis. The elucidated CSTF2-TGM2 regulatory axis may offer a promising and innovative therapeutic target for gastric carcinoma treatment.

CircPSMA4 as a novel circular RNA enhances the proliferation migration invasion and metabolism of bladder cancer cells through the miR-767-3p/HIF1A pathway. (PubMed, Sci Rep)
The expression and in vitro functionality of circPSMA4 in T24 bladder cancer cell lines were analyzed using RNase R treatment, actinomycin D stability assay, nucleocytoplasmic separation, real-time quantitative PCR, Western blot, dual-luciferase reporter assay, cellular energy metabolism analysis, scratch assay, Transwell migration and invasion assay, CCK-8 proliferation assay, lactate and glucose uptake detection, and ATP production measurement...CircPSMA4 functions as a miR-767-3p sponge, regulating miR-767-3p to influence the expression of HIF1A, thereby promoting the proliferation, migration, invasion, and metabolic activities of bladder cancer cells, as well as tumor formation. CircPSMA4 facilitates the proliferation, migration, invasion, and metabolism of bladder cancer cells through the miR-767-3p/HIF1A pathway.
