Objective: This study aimed to investigate the effect of circular RNA itchy E3 ubiquitin protein ligase on cell proliferation and apoptosis and to explore its target micro-RNAs in prostate cancer cells. Methods: Circular RNA itchy E3 ubiquitin protein ligase expression in human prostate cancer cells and normal prostate epithelial cells was determined by real time-quantitative polymerase chain reaction assay. Circular RNA itchy E3 ubiquitin protein ligase overexpression plasmids (circular RNA itchy E3 ubiquitin protein ligase(+) group and control overexpression plasmids group were transfected with PC-3 cells. Rescue experiment was performed by transfection of circular RNA itchy E3 ubiquitin protein ligase overexpression and micro-197 overexpression plasmids (circular RNA itchy E3 ubiquitin protein ligase overexpression plasmids/micro RNA (+) group) into PC-3 cells. Cell Counting Kit-8 and annexin V/propidium iodide assays were conducted to evaluate cell proliferation and apoptosis, respectively. Western blot was performed to determine the expressions of apoptotic-related markers. Results: Circular RNA itchy E3 ubiquitin protein ligase expression was decreased in DU 145, 22RV1, VCaP, and PC-3 cells compared to RWPE cells. In PC-3 cells, cell proliferation rate was reduced in circular RNA itchy E3 ubiquitin protein ligase overexpression plasmids group compared to control overexpression plasmids group at 48 hours and 72 hours. Cell apoptosis rate was elevated in circular RNA itchy E3 ubiquitin protein ligase overexpression plasmids group compared to control overexpression plasmids group at 48 hours, and Western blot showed the similar results. Micro RNA-197 but not micro RNA-31 or micro RNA-432 was the target micro-RNA of circular RNA itchy E3 ubiquitin protein ligase. In rescue experiments, cell proliferation rate was elevated, but apoptosis rate was reduced in circular RNA itchy E3 ubiquitin protein ligase overexpression plasmids/micro RNA (+) group compared to circular RNA itchy E3 ubiquitin protein ligase overexpression plasmids group, indicating that circular RNA itchy E3 ubiquitin protein ligase upregulation inhibited cell proliferation but promoted apoptosis through downregulating micro RNA-197. Conclusion: Circular RNA itchy E3 ubiquitin protein ligase upregulation suppresses cell proliferation but promotes apoptosis through targeting micro RNA-197 in prostate cancer. Our study may provide a new insight for the treatment of prostate cancer.

Abstract Background Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune inflammatory disease. It is characterized by an inflammatory polyarthritis that preferentially affects the small joints leading to joint damage and eventual deformity and disability, and can also present with extra-articular manifestations. Micro RNA (miRNA) is a class of non-coding RNAs which negatively regulate messenger RNA (mRNA) expression. Several studies had shown that miRNA-23b has a close relationship with inflammation and autoimmune diseases. An increasing evidence has suggested that miRNA-23b is closely associated with many inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. The current study aimed to evaluate the plasma expression of miRNA-23b in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients and to explore its potential association with diseases activity. Results RA patients had a significantly higher plasma miRNA-23b expression than controls (P < 0.001). The miRNA-23b plasma expression was significantly associated with the clinical and laboratory indices of RA activity as well as with the DAS28-ESR score (P = 0.009) and grades (P < 0.001). The miRNA-23b plasma expression was significantly correlated with the radiological severity of RA (P = 0.002). Conclusions Plasma expression of miRNA-23b is significantly increased in patients with RA than controls. In RA patients, plasma expression of miRNA-23b was significantly correlated with the activity and radiological severity of RA. miRNA-23b may represent a potential therapeutic target that can retard progression of RA.

Abstract Background Circular RNAs (circRNAs) is a newly discovered type of non-coding RNA, the abnormal expression of which has been demonstrated in many types of human tumors. So they have been considered as promising candidates as diagnostic and therapeutic targets in cancer. This research aimed to screen the profile of circRNA expression in salivary adenoid cystic carcinoma (SACC). Methods Using the threshold of FDR < 0.05 and fold change > 2 or < 0.5, 5 up-regulated and 26 down-regulated circRNAs were identified. The reliability of sequencing was verified by the expression detection of randomly selected circRNAs via qRT-PCR. Results Moreover, the circRNA-miRNA system was established by bioinformatics approaches and successfully identified an interaction between circRNA ABCA13 and a cancer-related miRNA (miR-138-5p), which was also verified by qRT-PCR. Moreover, the predicted molecular interaction proved that circRNA ABCA13 may promote SACC through inhibition of miR-138-5p. Conclusions Collectively, this study has offered the first report about the circRNA expression profile and circRNA-miRNA network in SACC. All of the above could benefit the exploration of novel therapeutic target in SACC treatment.

Apart from protein-coding Ribonucleic acids (RNAs), there exists a variety of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) which regulate complex cellular and molecular processes. High-throughput sequencing technologies and bioinformatics approaches have largely promoted the exploration of ncRNAs which revealed their crucial roles in gene regulation, miRNA binding, protein interactions, and splicing. Furthermore, ncRNAs are involved in the development of complicated diseases like cancer. Categorization of ncRNAs is essential to understand the mechanisms of diseases and to develop effective treatments. Sub-cellular localization information of ncRNAs demystifies diverse functionalities of ncRNAs. To date, several computational methodologies have been proposed to precisely identify the class as well as sub-cellular localization patterns of RNAs). This paper discusses different types of ncRNAs, reviews computational approaches proposed in the last 10 years to distinguish coding-RNA from ncRNA, to identify sub-types of ncRNAs such as piwi-associated RNA, micro RNA, long ncRNA, and circular RNA, and to determine sub-cellular localization of distinct ncRNAs and RNAs. Furthermore, it summarizes diverse ncRNA classification and sub-cellular localization determination datasets along with benchmark performance to aid the development and evaluation of novel computational methodologies. It identifies research gaps, heterogeneity, and challenges in the development of computational approaches for RNA sequence analysis. We consider that our expert analysis will assist Artificial Intelligence researchers with knowing state-of-the-art performance, model selection for various tasks on one platform, dominantly used sequence descriptors, neural architectures, and interpreting inter-species and intra-species performance deviation.

The level of muscle development in livestock directly affects the production efficiency of livestock, and the contents of intramuscular fat (IMF) is an important factor that affects meat quality. However, the molecular mechanisms through which circular RNA (circRNA) affects muscle and IMF development remains largely unknown. In this study, we isolated myoblasts and intramuscular preadipocytes from fetal bovine skeletal muscle. Oil Red O and BODIPY staining were used to identify lipid droplets in preadipocytes, and anti-myosin heavy chain (MyHC) immunofluorescence was used to identify myotubes differentiated from myoblasts. Bioinformatics, a dual-fluorescence reporter system, RNA pull-down, and RNA-binding protein immunoprecipitation were used to determine the interactions between circINSR and the micro RNA (miR)-15/16 family. Molecular and biochemical assays were used to confirm the roles played by circINSR in myoblasts and intramuscular preadipocytes. We found that isolated myoblasts and preadipocytes were able to differentiate normally. CircINSR was found to serve as a sponge for the miR-15/16 family, which targets CCND1 and Bcl-2. CircINSR overexpression significantly promoted myoblast and preadipocyte proliferation and inhibited cell apoptosis. In addition, circINSR inhibited preadipocyte adipogenesis by alleviating the inhibition of miR-15/16 against the target genes FOXO1 and EPT1. Taken together, our study demonstrated that circINSR serves as a regulator of embryonic muscle and IMF development.

RNA molecules are a source of phenotypic diversity and an operating system that connects multiple genetic and metabolic processes in the cell. A dysregulated RNA network is a common feature of cancer. Aberrant expression of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA), micro RNA (miRNA), and circular RNA (circRNA) in tumors compared to their normal counterparts, as well as the recurrent mutations in functional regulatory cis-acting RNA motifs have emerged as biomarkers of disease development and progression, opening avenues for the design of novel therapeutic approaches. This review looks at the progress, challenges and future prospects of targeting cis-acting and trans-acting RNA elements for leukemia diagnosis and treatment.

Purpose This review article provides an overview of autoimmune diseases and their effects on voice and laryngeal function. Method A literature review was conducted in PubMed. Combinations of the following keywords were used: “autoimmune disease and upper airway,” “larynx,” “cough,” “voice,” “dysphonia,” and “dyspnea.” Precedence was given to articles published in the past 10 years due to recent advances in this area and to review articles. Ultimately, 115 articles were included for review. Results Approximately 81 autoimmune diseases exist, with 18 of those highlighted in the literature as having laryngeal involvement. The general and laryngeal manifestations of these 18 are discussed in detail, in addition to the clinical implications for a laryngeal expert. Conclusions Voice, breathing, and cough symptoms may be an indication of underlying autoimmune disease. However, these symptoms are often similar to those in the general population. Appropriate differential diagnosis and timely referral practices maximize patient outcomes. Guidelines are provided to facilitate correct diagnosis when an autoimmune disease is suspected.
