Article Abstract

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play a crucial role in the occurrence and progression of various cancers. HOXD-AS1, an antisense RNA 1 of the lncRNA HOXD cluster, (also known as HAGLR, MIR7704HG, Mdgt, and STEEL), is located at human chromosome 2q31.1. Recent studies have demonstrated that the abnormal expression of HOXD-AS1 is significantly correlated with the clinicopathological features of patients with various tumors. The expression of HOXD-AS1 is abnormal in various tumors, affecting tumor cell proliferation, apoptosis, metastasis, invasion, metabolism, and drug resistance. HOXD-AS1 is important for cancer diagnosis and prognosis evaluation. Detecting its expression level helps judge cancer progression and predict patient survival. It is a therapeutic target and biomarker for early diagnosis and prognosis, with good clinical application prospects. This article reviews the role, molecular mechanisms, and potential clinical value of HOXD-AS1 in malignant tumor development.

Article Synopsis
  • Dystrobrevin beta (DTNB) is part of the dystrophin-associated protein complex and its expression is influenced by the long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) HOXD-AS1, particularly in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells.
  • High levels of DTNB in HCC are linked to various clinical factors like tumor stage and prognosis, indicating its role as an independent risk marker for patient survival.
  • Investigations suggest DTNB regulates the cell cycle and is involved in immune responses and drug sensitivity in HCC, with a potential regulatory mechanism involving a ceRNA network with HOXD-AS1 and miR-139-3p.

Article Synopsis
  • Preeclampsia (PE) is a serious condition that can happen during pregnancy and is linked to inflammation and problems with certain cells in the body.
  • Researchers studied a specific RNA called HOXD-AS1 and found it plays a role in PE by affecting levels of other molecules and influencing inflammation.
  • The findings suggest that targeting HOXD-AS1 and its interactions with other parts of the cell could help understand and maybe treat PE better.

Background: Studies have illuminated that long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) influences bone cell differentiation and formation. Nevertheless, whether lncRNA Homeobox D gene cluster antisense growth-associated long noncoding RNA (HAGLR) was implicated in postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMOP) was yet uncertain.

Purpose: The research was to explore HAGLR's role in the osteogenic differentiation (OD) process of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs).
