Article Abstract
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most common and deadly type of lung cancer, and its poor prognosis is closely related to the complex interactions of the tumor microenvironment. Through methylation analysis of tumor tissue samples from NSCLC patients, combined with high-throughput sequencing technology, the methylation status and structural characteristics of mRNA molecules were studied. Bioinformatics tools were used to analyze the regulatory effects of methylation modification on mRNA expression and genes associated with the tumor microenvironment. The results showed that the methylation level of specific mRNA was significantly correlated with the expression changes of tumor microenvironment-related factors. In addition, methylation modification affected mRNA stability and translation efficiency, further altering the metabolic activity and immune escape capacity of tumor cells. The results showed that mRNA with high methylation level was significantly associated with poor prognosis. Methylation modification profoundly affects the tumor microenvironment and prognosis of non-small cell lung cancer by altering the structure and function of mRNA molecules.

The effect of non-functionalized polystyrene nanoparticles (PS-NPs) with diameters of 29, 44, and 72 nm on plasmid DNA integrity and the expression of genes involved in the architecture of chromatin was investigated in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). The cells were incubated with PS-NPs at concentrations ranging from 0.001 to 100 µg/mL for 24 hours.

Gliomas are the most common primary malignant tumors of the central nervous system (CNS), and despite progress in molecular diagnostics and targeted therapies, their prognosis remains poor. In recent years, immunotherapy has emerged as a promising treatment modality in cancer therapy. However, the inevitable immune evasion by tumor cells is a key barrier affecting therapeutic efficacy.

A novel phthalonitrile derivative (a) containing three functional groups (hexyl, aminated ester, phenoxy) was synthesized and subsequently cyclotetramerized in the presence of the corresponding metal chloride salts to obtain hexadeca-substituted metal {M = Cu(II) and Co(II)} phthalocyanines (b and c). The water-soluble phthalocyanines (d and e) were prepared by treating the newly synthesized complexes (b and c) with methyl iodide. Moreover, gold nanoparticles (1) and silver nanoparticles (2) were prepared, and their surfaces were modified with quaternary phthalocyanines (d and e).

The malignant manifestation of breast cancer is driven by complex molecular alterations that extend beyond genetic mutations to include epigenetic dysregulation. Among these, DNA methylation is a critical and reversible epigenetic modification that significantly influences breast cancer initiation, progression, and therapeutic resistance. This process, mediated by DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs), involves the addition of methyl groups to cytosine residues within CpG dinucleotides, resulting in transcriptional repression of genes.

Somatic embryogenesis (SE) is an in vitro mass propagation system widely employed in plant breeding programs. However, its efficiency in many forest species remains limited due to their recalcitrance. SE relies on the induction of somatic cell reprogramming into embryogenic pathways, a process influenced by transcriptomic changes regulated, among other factors, by epigenetic modifications such as DNA methylation, histone methylation, and histone acetylation.
