Prognostic and diagnostic significance of circRNAs expression in hepatocellular carcinoma patients: A meta‐analysis by Xin Huang, Weiyue Zhang, Zengwu Shao

“…As for clinicopathological parameters, high expression of oncogenic circRNAs had a significant association with poor clinicopathological features and tumor‐suppressor circRNAs proved the contrary. In terms of the prognostic values, oncogenic circRNAs had a negative influence on overall survival (OS: HR = 3.39, 95%Cl: 2.59‐4.19), and high expression of tumor‐suppressor circRNAs was relevant to improved survival outcomes (OS: HR = 0.46, 95%Cl: 0.37‐0.56). …”

Identification of novel pQTL‐SNPs associated with lung adenocarcinoma risk: A multi‐stage study by Yutong Wu, Huiwen Xu, Liping Mao, Rongrong Zhao, Junfeng Chu, Lili Huang, Wendi Zhang, Yiran Liu, Qiong Chen, Xiaobo Tao, Siqi Li, Shenxuan Zhou, Anhui Ning, Zhenyu Li, Tian Tian, Lei Zhang, Jiahua Cui, Guangyu Tian, Minjie Chu

“…Meanwhile, the expression of their corresponding target proteins were all decreased in both plasma and tumor tissues of LUAD cases, which may play a role of tumor suppressor proteins. After mutation of 3 pQTL‐SNPs (rs7683000, rs73224660, and rs2776937), the expression of corresponding target proteins BST1 and NRP1 decreased, and as potential tumor suppressor proteins, which may promote tumorigenesis and further increasing the risk of developing LUAD (OR >1, p < 0.05); while after mutation the other pQTL‐SNP rs62069916, the corresponding target protein APOH expression was increased, while as a potential tumor suppressor protein, which may inhibit tumorigenesis and further reduced the risk of developing LUAD (OR <1, p < 0.05). …”
