Long Non-Coding RNA PVT1 Facilitates High Glucose-Induced Cardiomyocyte Death Through the miR-23a-3p/CASP10 Axis

Investigators observed that plasmacytoma variant translocation 1 (PVT1) and caspase‐10 were upregulated while miR‐23a‐3p was downregulated in high glucose‐induced cardiomyocytes. High glucose repressed cardiomyocyte activity and induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis, but this influence was antagonized by PVT1 knockdown or miR‐23a‐3p overexpression.

Evogliptin, a Dipeptidyl Peptidase-4 Inhibitor, Attenuates Pathological Retinal Angiogenesis by Suppressing Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor-Induced Arf6 Activation

Scientists examined the effects of evogliptin, a potent DPP-4 inhibitor, on pathological retinal neovascularization in mice and elucidated the mechanism by which evogliptin inhibits angiogenesis mediated by VEGF, a key factor in the vascular pathogenesis of proliferative diabetic retinopathy

Pancreas-Specific Deletion of Protein Kinase D Attenuates Inflammation, Necrosis, and Severity of Acute Pancreatitis

Investigators generated a mouse model with pancreas-specific deletion of PKD3, the predominant PKD isoform in mouse pancreatic acinar cells, by crossing Pkd3flox/flox mice with Pdx1-Cre transgenic mice which express Cre recombinase under the control of the mouse Pdx1 promoter.

Exploiting Chromosomal Instability of PTEN-Deficient Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Cell Lines for the Sensitization against PARP1 Inhibition in a Replication-Dependent Manner

Scientists recognized the tumor suppressor gene Phosphatase and Tensin homolog (PTEN) as a potential gene causing CIN in TNBC and showed that TNBC with low expression levels of PTEN can be sensitized for the treatment with poly-(ADP-ribose)-polymerase 1 (PARP1) inhibitors, independent of Breast Cancer (BRCA) mutations or a BRCA-like phenotype.
