Recent studies have increasingly linked miRNAs with the modulation of inflammatory responses and immunosuppressive activities. This investigation reveals that mir-30e-3p selectively binds to and modulates gimap8, as demonstrated by luciferase reporter assays and qPCR analyses. Upon LPS stimulation of CIK cells, mir-30e-3p expression was notably elevated, inversely correlating with a decrease in gimap8 mRNA levels. Overexpression of mir-30e-3p attenuated the mRNA levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines beyond the effect of LPS alone, suggesting a regulatory role of mir-30e-3p in inflammation mediated by the gimap8 gene. These insights contribute to our understanding of the complex mechanisms governing inflammatory and immune responses.

Unlabelled: Oxymatrine is a quinolizidine alkaloid derived from roots that has demonstrated significant antitumor activity against various cancers, including lung cancer. Recently, combination therapies involving anticancer agents and targeted interventions for dysregulated genes have emerged as a promising strategy to enhance treatment efficacy and overcome drug resistance. This study investigates the synergistic effects of oxymatrine and GIMAP8 in modulating the progression of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD).

GTPase IMAP family member 8 (GIMAP8) plays a key role in pathophysiology of several malignancies. The objective of this current research endeavor was to investigate the prognosis value of GIMAP8 in lung adenocarcinoma and examine how it relates to immunity. Expression profiles associated with GIMAP8 and related clinical details were acquired from The Cancer Genome Atlas database, and we conducted survival analysis, enrichment analysis and immune infiltration studies.

Background: African cattle represent a unique resource of genetic diversity in response to adaptation to numerous environmental challenges. Characterising the genetic landscape of indigenous African cattle and identifying genomic regions and genes of functional importance can contribute to targeted breeding and tackle the loss of genetic diversity. However, pinpointing the adaptive variant and determining underlying functional mechanisms of adaptation remains challenging.

Background: The GIMAP family genes play a key role in immune function. Increasing evidence suggests that GIMAP genes were implicated in the tumorigenesis of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). This study aimed to investigate the clinical significance of GIMAP family genes in LUAD.
