Screening and introduction of key cell cycle microRNAs deregulated in colorectal cancer by integrated bioinformatics analysis

Chemical Biology and Drug Design

Our data imply that a precise selection of bioinformatics tools can facilitate the identification of miRNAs that impact mRNA translation at different stages of the cell cycle. The ability of these six miRNAs to impact the cell cycle in colorectal cancer may be concluded.

The first major set of genetic associations found in long COVID

Drug Target Review

The article mentions that TLR4 antagonists have been identified as potential candidates for repurposing long COVID treatment. We also identified the genes ATP9A and INSR in long COVID that we had hypothesised contributes to dysregulated insulin signalling in subgroups of ME/CFS patients.

ANKRD22 promotes M2 polarization in lung adenocarcinoma macrophages via the glycolytic pathway

Chemical Biology and Drug Design

The expression of ANKRD22 in LUAD and its enriched pathway were analyzed by bioinformatics analysis. Bioinformatics analysis, qRT-PCR, and western blot showed that ANKRD22 was highly expressed in LUAD, which had a positive connection with M2 marker genes. Mitochondrial membrane potential was assessed using the JC-1 probe.
