Table_1_A novel necroptosis-related lncRNA signature for predicting prognosis and anti-cancer treatment response in endometrial cancer.docx

BackgroundNecroptosis, a form of programmed cell death, underlies tumorigenesis and the progression of cancers. Anti-cancer strategies targeting necroptosis have increasingly been shown to present a potential cancer therapy. However, the predictive utility and anticancer sensitivity value of necroptosis-related lncRNAs (NRLs) for endometrial cancer (EC) are currently unknown.MethodsEC patient gene expression profiles and the corresponding clinical information collected from The Cancer Genome Atlas were used to identify NRLs that constituted a predictive signature for EC. The functional pathways, immune status, clinicopathological correlation, and anticancer drug sensitivity of the patients relative to the NRLs signatures were analyzed.ResultsA signature composed of 7 NRLs (AC019080.5, BOLA3-AS1, AC022144.1, AP000345.2, LEF1-AS1, AC010503.4, and RPARP-AS1) was identified. The high-risk patient group with this signature exhibited a poorer prognosis and lower survival rate than low-risk group lacking this signature. This necroptosis-related lncRNA signature had a higher predictive accuracy compared with other clinicopathological variables (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of the risk score: 0.717). Additionally, when patients were stratified based on other clinicopathological variables, the overall survival was significantly shorter in the high-risk versus low-risk group across all cohorts. Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) revealed that immune- and tumor-related signaling pathways and biological processes were enriched in the high-risk group compared to the low-risk group. Single-sample gene set enrichment analysis (ssGSEA) additionally showed that the resulting risk score was strongly correlated with EC patient immune status. Finally, patients with high-risk scores were more sensitive to the anti-cancer drugs such as Docetaxel, Mitomycin.C, Vinblastine, AZD.2281 (olaparib), AZD6244, and PD.0332991 (Palbociclib).ConclusionThese findings reveal a novel necroptosis-related lncRNA signature for predicting EC patient prognosis and shed new light on anticancer therapy strategies for EC.</p

New triterpenoids from the aerial parts of the Uygur medicine <i>Salvia deserta</i>

Phytochemical investigation on the aerial parts of Salvia deserta led to the isolation of eight new pentacyclic triterpenoids including three oleanane- (1 − 3) and five ursane-type (4 − 8) triterpenoids, whose structures were elucidated based on extensive spectroscopic analysis and quantum chemical calculation. Weak immunosuppressive potency was observed for compounds 1, 2, and 4 − 8 via inhibiting the secretion of cytokines TNF-α and IL-6 in LPS-induced macrophages RAW264.7 at 20 μM. In addition, compounds 1, 2, and 4 − 6 exhibited moderate protective activity on t-BHP-induced oxidative injury in HepG2 cells.</p
