    Abstract Despite improvements in preventative strategies, such as regular screenings with Pap tests and human papillomavirus (HPV) tests as well as HPV vaccinations, effective treatment for advanced cervical cancer remains poor. Deregulation of STAT3 is an oncogenic factor that promotes tumorigenesis and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in various cancers. Oncostatin M (OSM), a pleiotropic cytokine, induces STAT3 activation, exacerbating cervical cancer. However, the mechanism by which the OSM-STAT3 axis epigenetically regulates tumor-progression-related genes in cervical cancer is not well understood. Here, we show that OSM-mediated STAT3 activation promotes pro-tumorigenic gene expression programs, with chromatin remodeling in cervical cancer. Reanalysis of scRNA-seq data performed in cervical cancer uncovered an interaction between the oncostatin M receptor (OSMR) on tumor cells and OSM induced by tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs). Our gene expression profiling (bulk RNA-seq) shows that OSM-induced genes were involved in hypoxia, wound healing, and angiogenesis, which were significantly inhibited by SD-36, a STAT3-selective degrader. Additionally, ATAC-seq experiments revealed that STAT3 binding motifs were preferentially enriched in open chromatin regions of the OSM-STAT3-regulated genes. Among the 50 candidate genes that were regulated epigenetically through the OSM-STAT3 axis, we found that the expression levels of

    Abstract Macrophages are present in almost all body tissues. They detect and quickly respond to "environmental signals" in the tissue. Macrophages have been associated with numerous beneficial roles, such as host defense, wound healing, and tissue regeneration; however, they have also been linked to the development of diverse illnesses, particularly cancers and autoimmune disorders. Complex signaling, epigenetic, and metabolic pathways drive macrophage training and tolerance. The induced intracellular program differs depending on the type of initial stimuli and the tissue microenvironment. Due to the essential roles of macrophages in homeostatic and their association with the pathogenesis of inflammatory diseases, recent studies have investigated the molecular mechanisms of macrophage training and tolerance. This review discusses the role of factors involved in macrophage training and tolerance, along with the current studies in human diseases.

    Abstract Approximately 80% of all new bladder cancer patients are diagnosed with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC). However, approximately 15% of them progress to muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC), for which prognosis is poor. The current study aimed to improve diagnostic accuracy associated with clinical outcomes in NMIBC patients. Nevertheless, it has been challenging to identify molecular biomarkers that accurately predict MIBC progression because this disease is complex and heterogeneous. Through integrative transcriptome profiling, we showed that high

    Abstract RAD51 is a recombinase that plays a pivotal role in homologous recombination. Although the role of RAD51 in homologous recombination has been extensively studied, it is unclear whether RAD51 can be involved in gene regulation as a co-factor. In this study, we found evidence that RAD51 may contribute to the regulation of genes involved in the autophagy pathway with E-box proteins such as USF1, USF2, and/or MITF in GM12878, HepG2, K562, and MCF-7 cell lines. The canonical USF binding motif (CACGTG) was significantly identified at RAD51-bound

    Abstract Non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) is a common disease with a high recurrence rate requiring lifetime surveillance. Although NMIBC is not life-threatening, it can progress to muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC), a lethal form of the disease. The management of the two diseases differs, and patients with MIBC require aggressive treatments such as chemotherapy and radical cystectomy. NMIBC patients at a high risk of progression benefit from early immediate cystectomy. Thus, identifying concordant markers for accurate risk stratification is critical to predict the prognosis of NMIBC. Candidate genetic biomarkers associated with NMIBC prognosis were screened by RNA-sequencing of 24 tissue samples, including 16 NMIBC and eight normal controls, and by microarray analysis (GSE13507). Lastly, we selected and investigated a mitotic checkpoint serine/threonine kinase, BUB1, that regulates chromosome segregation during the cell cycle.
