The genetic profiling of bilateral ACC of unknown primary site and application in postoperative decision-making are less reported.Case Presentation: A 57-year-old male with a smoking history of over 30 years and multiple nodules in both lungs was present to our department. After assessing the bilateral solid nodules in his Positron Emission Tomography–Computed Tomography (PET/CT) scan, malignant lesions at the left lower lung, right lower lung, and right middle lung are suspected. Sequential selective video-assisted thoracoscopic surgeries (VATS) were performed. A genetic alteration test of 425 cancer-related genes and global gene expression profile of the specimens revealed intrapulmonary metastasis existed. The patient was followed up for three years without recurrence and tissue mutations in liquid biopsy.Conclusion: We present a way of omics-based multiple pulmonary lesions origin assessment, facilitating post-operative differential diagnosis and treatment decision for difficult cases.Keywords: adenoid cystic carcinoma, next-generation sequencing, lung cancers of unknown primary site, PIK3R1

Abstract

Extensive remodeling of the female mammary epithelium during development and pregnancy has been linked to cancer susceptibility. The faithful response of mammary epithelial cells (MECs) to hormone signaling is key to avoid breast cancer development. Here we show that lactogenic differentiation of murine MECs requires silencing of genes encoding ribosomal RNA (rRNA) by the antisense transcript PAPAS. Accordingly, knockdown of PAPASderepresses rRNA genes, attenuates the response to lactogenic hormones, and induces malignant transformation. Restoring PAPASlevels in breast cancer cells reduces tumorigenicity and lung invasion, and activates many interferon-regulated genes previously linked to metastasis suppression. Mechanistically, PAPAStranscription depends on R-loop formation at the 3’ end of rRNA genes, which is repressed by RNase H1 and replication protein A (RPA) overexpression in breast cancer cells. Depletion of PAPAS, and upregulation of RNase H1 and RPA in human breast cancer underpin the clinical relevance of our findings.

Abstract

Introduction: NAC (NAM, ATAF, and CUC) transcription factor family, one of the important switches of transcription networks in plants, functions in plant growth, development, and stress resistance. Night lily ( Hemerocallis citrina ) is an important horticultural perennial monocot plant that has edible, medicinal, and ornamental values. However, the NAC gene family of night lily has not yet been analyzed systematically to date., Methods: Therefore, we conducted a genome-wide study of the HcNAC gene family and identified a total of 113 HcNAC members from the Hemerocallis citrina genome., Results: We found that 113 HcNAC genes were unevenly distributed on 11 chromosomes. Phylogenetic analysis showed that they could be categorized into 16 instinct subgroups. Proteins clustering together exhibited similar conserved motifs and intron-exon structures. Collinearity analysis indicated that segmental and tandem duplication might contribute to the great expansion of the NAC gene family in night lily, whose relationship was closer with rice than Arabidopsis . Additionally, tissue-specific pattern analysis indicated that most HcNAC genes had relatively higher expression abundances in roots. RNA-Seq along with RT-qPCR results jointly showed HcNAC genes expressed differently under drought and salinity stresses. Interestingly, HcNAC35 was overexpressed in watermelon, and the stress resilience of transgenic lines was much higher than that of wild-type watermelon, which revealed its wide participation in abiotic stress response., Conclusion: In conclusion, our findings provide a new prospect for investigating the biological roles of NAC genes in night lily., Competing Interests: The authors declare that the research was conducted in the absence of any commercial or financial relationships that could be construed as a potential conflict of interest., (Copyright © 2024 Cao, Wang, Ren, Jia, Liu, Yang, Yu, Guo, Hou, Xu, Li and Xing.)
