Classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) is a hematological malignancy of B-cell origin. The tumor cells in cHL are referred to as Hodgkin and Reed-Sternberg (HRS) cells. This review provides an overview of the currently known miRNA-target gene interactions. In addition, we pinpointed other potential regulatory roles of microRNAs (miRNAs) by focusing on genes related to processes relevant for cHL pathogenesis, i.e., loss of B-cell phenotypes, immune evasion, and growth support. A cHL-specific miRNA signature was generated based on the available profiling studies. The interactions relevant for cHL were extracted by comprehensively reviewing the existing studies on validated miRNA-target gene interactions. The miRNAs with potential critical roles included miR-155-5p, miR-148a-3p, miR-181a-5p, miR-200, miR-23a-3p, miR-125a/b, miR-130a-3p, miR-138, and miR-143-3p, which target, amongst others, PU.1, ETS1, HLA-I, PD-L1, and NF-κB component genes. Overall, we provide a comprehensive perspective on the relevant miRNA-target gene interactions which can also serve as a foundation for future functional studies into the specific roles of the selected miRNAs in cHL pathogenesis.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are critical regulators of gene expression in cancer biology, yet their spatial dynamics within tumor microenvironments (TMEs) remain underexplored due to technical limitations in current spatial transcriptomics (ST) technologies. To address this gap, we present STmiR, a novel XGBoost-based framework for spatially resolved miRNA activity prediction. STmiR integrates bulk RNA-seq data (TCGA and CCLE) with spatial transcriptomics profiles to model nonlinear miRNA-mRNA interactions, achieving high predictive accuracy (Spearman's ρ > 0.

Introduction And Aims: Pulpitis is a chronic inflammatory disease affecting oral health. We aim to identify immune-related lncRNAs via bioinformatics analyses and explore their functions through ceRNA networks.
Methods: The expression profiles of 6 patients with pulpitis and 8 normal dental pulp have been obtained from Genome Sequence Archive.

Background: Delayed wound healing following anal fistula (AF) surgery remains a clinical challenge. This study endeavors to identify and validate key exosomal miRNAs that regulate postoperative inflammation after AF surgery by integrating multi-omics analyses with functional assays, and to elucidate the molecular mechanisms by which these miRNAs and their target genes influence macrophage M1/M2 polarization.
Methods: 15 patients undergoing AF surgery were randomized to three groups.

Background: The regulatory network that coordinates gene expression ultimately determines the phenotype of an organism. Micro-RNAs (miRNAs) are post-transcriptional regulators involved in key biological processes. Lineage-specific losses of multiple miRNA families are rare, and reported cases of multiple miRNA losses coincide with significant changes in gene regulation resulting in body plan modifications.

Background: Proteins containing domains of unknown function (DUFs) play a crucial role in plant growth, development and stress adaptation, but many of them are still uncharacterized. The DUF789 family is one of the least studied of these, especially in economically significant crops like cotton (Gossypium spp.), whose possible function in fibre production and abiotic stress response is yet unknown.
