LncRNA SNHG10 Promotes the Proliferation and Invasion of Osteosarcoma via Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling

In vitro experiments (including colony formation, CCK-8, wound healing and transwell assays) and in vivo experiments indicated that down-regulation of SNHG10 significantly suppressed the proliferation and invasion of osteosarcoma cells

High-Fidelity Drug Induced Liver Injury Screen Using Human PSC-derived Organoids

Researchers established a human liver organoid (HLO) based screening model for analyzing DILI pathology at organoid resolution. HLO, generated from ten-different pluripotent stem cell lines, contained polarized immature hepatocytes with bile canaliculi-like architecture, establishing the unidirectional bile acid transport pathway.

TIMP-2 Regulates Proliferation, Invasion and STAT3-Mediated Cancer Stem Cell-Dependent Chemoresistance in Ovarian Cancer Cells

FT282, JHOS2 and OVCAR4 cells were transiently transfected with either single or pooled TIMP-2 siRNAs. The expression of different genes after TIMP-2 knock down or in response to chemotherapy was determined at the mRNA level by quantitative real time PCR and at the protein level by immunofluorescence.

EIF4A3-Induced Circular RNA ASAP1 (circASAP1) Promotes Tumorigenesis and Temozolomide Resistance of Glioblastoma via NRAS/MEK1/ERK1/2 Signaling

CircASAP1 expression was significantly up-regulated in recurrent glioblastoma (GBM) tissues and temozolomide-resistant cell lines. CircASAP1 overexpression enhanced GBM cell proliferation and temozolomide-resistance, which could reduced by circASAP1 knockdown.
