RESUMO
Sorafenib resistance greatly restricts its clinical application in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Numerous studies have reported that ID1 exerts a crucial effect in cancer initiation and development. Our previous research revealed an inhibitory role of ID1 in sorafenib resistance. However, the upstream regulatory mechanism of ID1 expression is unclear. Here, we discovered that ID1 expression is negatively correlated with promoter methylation, which is regulated by DNMT3B. Knockdown of DNMT3B significantly inhibited ID1 methylation status and resulted in an increase of ID1 expression. The demethylating agent 5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine (5-aza) remarkably upregulated ID1 expression. The combination of 5-aza with sorafenib showed a synergistic effect on the inhibition of cell viability.

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a disease that involves brain damage and is associated with neuroinflammation, mitochondrial damage, and cell aging. However, the pathogenic mechanism of PD is still unknown. Sequencing data and proteomic data can describe the fluctuation of molecular abundance in diseases at the mRNA level and protein level, respectively. In order to explore new targets in the pathogenesis of PD, the study analyzed molecular changes from the database by combining transcriptomic and proteomic analysis. Differentially expressed genes and differentially abundant proteins were summarized and analyzed. Enrichment and cluster analysis emphasized the importance of neurotransmitter release, mitochondrial damage, and vesicle transport. The molecular network revealed a subnetwork of 9 molecules related to SCNA and TH and revealed hub gene with differential expression at both mRNA and protein levels. It found that ACHE and CADPS could be used as new targets in PD, emphasizing that impaired nerve signal transmission and vesicle transport affect the pathogenesis of PD. Our research emphasized that the joint analysis and verification of transcriptomics and proteomics were devoted to understanding the comprehensive views and mechanism of pathogenesis in PD.
