Although fibroids are hormone-dependent lesions, their growth during pregnancy seems to have a nonlinear trend. Besides placental estrogens and progesterone, an array of endocrine and paracrine factors affect fibroid blood supply, growth rate, and risk of degeneration along the gestational and puerperal periods. According to current evidence, the presence of leiomyomas might increase the risk of some adverse pregnancy outcomes. Although a causative relation between fibroids and spontaneous abortion is questionable, the presence of multiple submucosal lesions in certain populations, such as infertile women, may increase the risk of pregnancy loss. Slightly increased risks of placenta previa, placental abruption and fetal malpresentation may occur, mainly due to the mechanical influence of multiple and large fibroids. Cesarean section and preterm birth rates are also probably increased in the presence of fibroids. The risk associations are based on meta-analyses of cohort studies (level of evidence 2a), retrospective cohort studies (2b), case-control (3a), and cross-sectional studies (3b), but with a predominantly low risk of bias. For evaluating the growth pattern of leiomyomas and their real influence on obstetric outcomes, future studies should enroll women with fibroids diagnosed prior to pregnancy and follow them prospectively throughout the gestation and puerperium.Cholestatic liver disease is a disease that causes liver damage and fibrosis owing to bile stasis. It is represented by primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) and primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC), but the pathophysiological pathways that cause bile stasis in both diseases are different. The pathogenesis of the disease is still unclear, although autoimmune mechanisms have been postulated and partially elucidated. Although the disease may progress slowly with only mild liver dysfunction, it may progress to liver cirrhosis or liver failure, which require liver transplantation. As a medical treatment, ursodeoxycholic acid is widely used for PBC and has proved to be very effective against disease progression in cases of PBC. On the other hand, its efficacy is limited in cases of PSC, and the research and development of various drugs are underway. Furthermore, the clinical course of both diseases is quite variable, making the design of clinical trials fairly difficult. In this review, we present the general natural history of PBC and PSC, and provide information on the latest drug therapies currently available and those that are under investigation. Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common and deadly brain tumor. We aimed to reveal potential prognostic GBM marker genes, elaborate their functions, and build an effective a prognostic model for GBM patients. Through data mining of The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and the Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas (CGGA), we screened for significantly differentially expressed genes (DEGs) to calculate risk scores for individual patients. Published data of somatic mutation and copy number variation profiles were analyzed for distinct genomic alterations associated with risk scores. In addition, single-cell sequencing was used to explore the biological functions of the identified prognostic marker genes. By combining risk scores and other clinical features, we built a comprehensive prognostic GBM model. Seven DEGs (CLEC5A, HOXC6, HOXA5, CCL2, GPRASP1, BSCL2 and PTX3) were identified as being prognostic for GBM. Expression of these genes was confirmed in different GBM cell lines using real-time PCR. Risk scores calculated from the seven DEGs revealed prognostic value irrespective of other clinical factors, including IDH mutation status, and were negatively correlated with TP53 expression. The prognostic genes were found to be associated with tumor proliferation and progression based on pseudo-time analysis in neoplastic cells. A final prognostic model was developed and validated with a good performance, especially in geriatric GBM patients. Using genetic profiles, age, IDH mutation status, and chemotherapy and radiotherapy, we constructed a comprehensive prognostic model for GBM patients. The model has a good performance, especially in geriatric GBM patients.

Several studies have identified that circular RNAs (circRNAs) have a crucial impact on the biological processes in PCa. Therefore, it is necessary to study the molecular mechanism of circRNAs in tumor progression and metastasis. RNA interference was used to decrease circHIPK3 and MTDH expression. Overexpression vector was used to increase circHIPK3 and MTDH expression. Luciferase reporter assay were used to detect the relationship between circHIPK3 and miR-448 or between miR-448 and MTDH. MTT assay, colony formation assay and transwell assay were used to measure proliferation and migration of PCa cells. Circular RNA circHIPK3 was significantly increased in PCa tissues and cell lines. And overexpression of circHIPK3 promoted the migration, proliferation, and invasion of PC-3 and 22Rv1 cells, while knockdown of circHIPK3 markedly repressed the above-mentioned series of biological processes. Furthermore, circHIPK3 promoted metadherin (MTDH) expression by sponging miR-448. In vivo experiments, it was also found that overexpression of circHIPK3 significantly promoted tumor growth. Our research shows that circHIPK3 plays a carcinogenic effect in PCa by regulating the miR-448/MTDH axis, indicating that circHIPK3 may be a potential therapeutic target for PCa.
