Article Abstract

Hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury (HIRI) is a common complication in liver surgery and transplantation. Recent studies have revealed the significant role of the competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) network in HIRI. Herein, we comprehensively analyzed the HIRI-related ceRNA network and its correlation with immune-related pathways and immune cells in HIRI patients. We identified 449 lncRNAs, 26 miRNAs, and 548 mRNAs differentially expressed in HIRI patients. We constructed a HIRI-related ceRNA network in liver transplant patients consisting of 3 lncRNAs, 3 miRNAs, and 29 mRNAs. Biological function analysis showed that the HIRI-related ceRNA network contributes to HIRI progression by regulating calcium ion-related regulatory pathways and processes. An immune-related ceRNA subnetwork, which consists of 1 lncRNA (PARD6G-AS1), 1 miRNA (hsa-miRNA-125b-5p), and 4 mRNAs (PLAU, CCR5, FGF5 and IL24) was obtained. The immune-related ceRNA subnetwork was significantly related to the immune-related pathways and immune cell infiltration. The PARD6G-AS1/miR-125b-5p/IL24 axis was identified as a potential ceRNA sponge that may influence NK cell activity in HIRI. Our results underlined that the lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA ceRNA network can positively or negatively regulate immune-related functions and infiltrating immune cells mediated HIRI, which could provide further insight into novel molecular therapeutic targets.

Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths globally. Enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2), a methyl-transferase and master transcriptional regulator frequently overexpresses in a variety of malignancies. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play a significant role in regulating gene expression and are intricately involved in the EZH2 oncogenic regulatory network.

The increasing use of titanium dioxide (TiO) nanoparticles (NPs) has raised concerns related to their environmental accumulation and the associated ecological risks. Understanding the key biomolecular responses of TiO₂ NP-tolerant organisms like Physarum flavicomum GD217 is essential for combating the pollution of and exposure to these NPs. In this study, we employed multi-omics approaches combined with molecular biology techniques to investigate the stress responses of GD217 to mixed-phase TiO₂ NPs (M-TiO₂ NPs).

The ceRNA Regulatory Network in Vitiligo: Evidence from Bioinformatics Analysis.

Clin Cosmet Investig Dermatol

August 2025

Jiangsu Key Laboratory of Molecular Biology for Skin Diseases and STIs, Hospital of Dermatology, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College, Nanjing, 210042, People's Republic of China.

Background: Vitiligo is an acquired depigmentary disorder caused by the loss of functional melanocytes. Increasing evidence suggests that competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) interactions participate in this process, yet their global architecture in vitiligo remains unclear.

Objective: To delineate a long non-coding RNA (lncRNA)-microRNA (miRNA)-mRNA ceRNA network associated with vitiligo and to identify blood-borne RNA markers with diagnostic potential.
