Article Title: Mechanistic study of MUC3A in promoting progression of clear cell renal cell carcinoma via the JAK-STAT pathway

doi: 10.3892/or.2026.9119

Figure Lengend Snippet: MUC3A is aberrantly upregulated in ccRCC and associated with poor prognosis. (A) Pan-cancer analysis of MUC3A expression across multiple tumor types based on TCGA data, generated using the GEPIA2 platform. Gene expression values are presented as log2(TPM + 1). (B) Differential expression of MUC3A in tumor and normal samples from the TCGA-KIRC cohort (523 tumor samples vs. 72 normal samples). *P<0.05. (C) Western blotting of MUC3A protein expression in HK-2 and RPTEC/TERT1 non-malignant renal epithelial cell lines and ccRCC cell lines (CAKI-1, OSRC-2, 786-O and ACHN). GAPDH was used as a loading control. (D) Western blotting of MUC3A knockdown efficiency in 786-O and OSRC-2 cells following transient transfection with three independent siRNAs targeting MUC3A. si-2 was selected for subsequent functional experiments due to its superior knockdown efficiency. (E) Kaplan-Meier OS analysis of ccRCC patients stratified into high- and low-MUC3A expression groups using the GEPIA2 platform. (F) Kaplan-Meier DFS analysis of ccRCC patients based on MUC3A expression levels. Data are derived from TCGA unless otherwise indicated.

Article Snippet: Human ccRCC cell lines 786-O (cat. no. CL-0010), OSRC-2 (cat. no. CL-0177), Caki-1 (cat. no. CL-0052) and ACHN (cat. no. CL-0021), as well as non-malignant renal epithelial cells HK-2 (cat. no. CL-0109; all from Procell Life Science & Technology Co., Ltd.) and RPTEC/TERT1 (cat. no. CRL-4031; American Type Culture Collection), were used in the present study.

Article Title: CASER: A semi-supervised model with multi-omics data integration prioritizes cancer-associated epigenetic regulator genes

doi: 10.1371/journal.pcbi.1014253

Figure Lengend Snippet: (A) Six predicted cER genes were investigated in SK-mel-2 cell line ( n = 4). (B) Six predicted cER genes were investigated in Caki-1 cell line ( n = 4). Statistical analysis was performed between si-NC and si-Genes. P -values are calculated by One-way analysis of variance followed by Dunnett’s corrections and indicated by star symbols, *, P < 0.05; **, P < 0.01; ***, P < 0.001; ****, P < 0.0001; ns, P > 0.05.

Article Snippet: The human melanoma cell line SK-mel-2, clear cell renal cell carcinoma cell line Caki-1, breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231, and prostate cancer cell line LNCaP, along with their corresponding complete median, were purchased from Procell Life Science & Technology Co., Ltd. (Wuhan, China).
