The purpose is to examine the synergistic effect of pemetrexed (PEM) and amrubicin (AMR) on the proliferation of lung cancer cell lines. In vitro, dose-dependent synergistic effects of concurrent PEM and AMRol, which is an active metabolite of AMR were observed in A549 and H460 cells. In real-time RT-qPCR analysis and western blotting, expression of the target enzymes of PEM were suppressed in cells treated with amrubicinol alone. In vivo, AMR/PEM treatment also showed synergistic antitumor activity both in A549-bearing and H520-bearing mice. PEM and AMR work synergistically to inhibit the proliferation of several different lung cancer cell lines.

Purpose: Lung cancer is currently the most common malignant tumor worldwide and one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths, posing a serious threat to human health. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of endogenous non-coding small RNA molecules that regulate gene expression and are involved in various biological processes associated with lung cancer. Understanding the mechanisms of lung carcinogenesis and detecting disease biomarkers may enable early diagnosis of lung cancer.

Objective: CircRNAs are involved in cancer progression. However, their role in immune escape in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains poorly understood.
Methods: This study employed RIP-seq for the targeted enrichment of circRNAs, followed by Western blotting and RT-qPCR to confirm their expression.

Aberrant DNA methylation has been described in nearly all human cancers, yet its interplay with genomic alterations during tumor evolution is poorly understood. To explore this, we performed reduced representation bisulfite sequencing on 217 tumor and matched normal regions from 59 patients with non-small cell lung cancer from the TRACERx study to deconvolve tumor methylation. We developed two metrics for integrative evolutionary analysis with DNA and RNA sequencing data.

Five new heterodimers, chalasoergodimers A-E (1-5), and three known heterodimers (6-8), along with four chaetoglobosin monomers (9-12), were isolated from a marine-derived Chaetomium sp. fungus. The structures of new compounds 1-5 were elucidated by HRESIMS, NMR, chemical calculated C NMR and ECD methods.
