Fine-tuning miR-21 expression and inhibition of EMT in breast cancer cells using aromatic-neomycin derivatives

Arpita Ghosh et al.

Summary: MicroRNAs (miRs) are endogenously expressed non-coding RNAs that regulate gene expression within cells and are involved in maintaining cellular homeostasis. Aberrantly expressed miRs can be associated with diseases such as cancer. miR-21, highly expressed in breast cancer cells, acts as an onco-miR by targeting PTEN protein and promoting epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT). This study uses peptidic amino sugar molecules to target pre-miR-21 and inhibit its biogenesis, thereby counteracting its tumor-causing effect and inhibiting EMT.

Global cancer statistics 2020: GLOBOCAN estimates of incidence and mortality worldwide for 36 cancers in 185 countries

Hyuna Sung et al.

Summary: The global cancer burden in 2020 saw an estimated 19.3 million new cancer cases and almost 10.0 million cancer deaths. Female breast cancer surpassed lung cancer as the most commonly diagnosed cancer, while lung cancer remained the leading cause of cancer death. These trends are expected to rise in 2040, with transitioning countries experiencing a larger increase compared to transitioned countries due to demographic changes and risk factors associated with globalization and a growing economy. Efforts to improve cancer prevention measures and provision of cancer care in transitioning countries will be crucial for global cancer control.

Direct evaluation of self-quenching behavior of fluorophores at high concentrations using an evanescent field

Wooli Bae et al.

Summary: The quantum yield of a fluorophore is reduced when multiple identical fluorophores are in close proximity, a phenomenon known as self-quenching. A novel method utilizing total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy was developed to directly evaluate the self-quenching behavior of fluorophores at high concentrations, overcoming the inner filter effect and allowing for measurements of different mechanisms of self-quenching.
