The PTTG1/VASP axis promotes oral squamous cell carcinoma metastasis by modulating focal adhesion and actin filaments

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
VASP was found to be overexpressed in metastatic oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) tissues. Notably, PTTG1‐ and VASP‐deficient OSCC cells demonstrated suppressed metastatic properties by disrupting the interaction between the cytoskeleton and focal adhesion (FAs) in the filopodia region.

How Large is the Universe of RNA-Like Motifs? A Clustering Analysis of RNA Graph Motifs Using Topological Descriptors [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
We introduce a computational topology-based approach with unsupervised machine-learning algorithms to estimate the database size and content of RNA-like graph topologies. Specifically, we apply graph theory enumeration to generate all 110,667 possible 2D dual graphs for vertex numbers ranging from 2 to 9.

NanoCMSer: a consensus molecular subtype stratification tool for fresh‐frozen and paraffin‐embedded colorectal cancer samples

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Consensus molecular subtypes (CMS1‐4) have been identified to study colorectal cancer heterogeneity and serve as potential biomarkers. In this study, we developed and evaluated NanoCMSer, a NanoString‐based classifier using 55 genes, optimized for FF and FFPE to facilitate the clinical evaluation of CMS subtyping.

Obesity alters the fitness of peritumoral adipose tissue, exacerbating tumor invasiveness in renal cancer through the induction of ADAM12 and CYP1B1

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Tumor microenvironment drives cancer formation and progression. We analyzed the role of human cancer‐associated adipocytes from patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) stratified as lean, overweight, or obese. RNA‐seq demonstrated that, among the most altered genes involved in the tumor–stroma crosstalk, are ADAM12 and CYP1B1, which were proven to be ...

New-onset Seropositive Rheumatoid Arthritis Post-mRNA COVID-19 Vaccine: A Case Report

open access: yesOman Medical Journal
Growing evidence in the medical literature has linked the COVID-19 vaccine as a potential trigger for the development or exacerbation of various autoimmune rheumatic diseases. To the best of our knowledge, we report one of the first cases of seropositive

Parametric analysis of RNA folding [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2009
We extend recent methods for parametric sequence alignment to the parameter space for scoring RNA folds. This involves the construction of an RNA polytope. A vertex of this polytope corresponds to RNA secondary structures with common branching. We use this polytope and its normal fan to study the effect of varying three parameters in the free energy ...

Addressing persistent challenges in digital image analysis of cancer tissue: resources developed from a hackathon

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Large multidimensional digital images of cancer tissue are becoming prolific, but many challenges exist to automatically extract relevant information from them using computational tools. We describe publicly available resources that have been developed jointly by expert and non‐expert computational biologists working together during a virtual hackathon

RNAFlow: RNA Structure & Sequence Design via Inverse Folding-Based Flow Matching [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
The growing significance of RNA engineering in diverse biological applications has spurred interest in developing AI methods for structure-based RNA design. While diffusion models have excelled in protein design, adapting them for RNA presents new challenges due to RNA's conformational flexibility and the computational cost of fine-tuning large ...

CoFold: thermodynamic RNA structure prediction with a kinetic twist [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2012
Existing state-of-the-art methods that take a single RNA sequence and predict the corresponding RNA secondary-structure are thermodynamic methods. These predict the most stable RNA structure, but do not consider the process of structure formation. We have by now ample experimental and theoretical evidence, however, that sequences in vivo fold while ...
