Hypoxia inducible lncRNA-CBSLR modulates ferroptosis through m6A-YTHDF2-dependent modulation of CBS in gastric cancer

Hui Yang et al.

Summary: In this study, a hypoxia-induced lncRNA, CBSLR, was discovered to protect gastric cancer cells from ferroptosis, leading to chemoresistance. The mechanism involves the formation of CBSLR/YTHDF2/CBS signaling axis that destabilizes CBS mRNA and promotes ACSL4 degradation, resulting in decreased ferroptosis.

N6-Methyladenosine Methylation Regulator RBM15 is a Potential Prognostic Biomarker and Promotes Cell Proliferation in Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma

Zhiying Zhao et al.

Summary: The RNA binding motif protein 15 (RBM15) has been found to be mutated or abnormally up-regulated in various cancers, and its high expression is associated with poor prognosis. In pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAAD), RBM15 overexpression is correlated with patients' overall survival, disease-free interval, progression-free interval, and disease-specific survival. RBM15 expression is also positively correlated with immune infiltrating cells and immune checkpoint markers in certain cancer types. Knockdown of RBM15 inhibits the proliferation of pancreatic cancer cells. Pan-cancer analysis suggests that RBM15 may serve as a prognostic biomarker and immunotherapeutic target for PAAD.

Summary: Copper is an essential cofactor for all organisms, but excessive copper can lead to cell death. We found that copper-dependent cell death mechanism is different from known mechanisms, and it is related to mitochondrial respiration. Copper directly binds to lipoylated components of the tricarboxylic acid cycle, causing protein aggregation and loss of iron-sulfur cluster proteins, ultimately leading to cell death.
