Reconstruction and analysis of the gene network regulating apoptosis in hepatocellular carcinoma based on scRNA-seq data and the ANDSystem knowledge base. (PubMed, Vavilovskii Zhurnal Genet Selektsii)
The obtained results can guide the design of new experiments studying the role of apoptosis in carcinogenesis and aid in the search for novel therapeutic targets and approaches for HCC therapy using apoptosis modulation in malignant hepatocytes. Furthermore, the proposed approach to reconstructing and analyzing the apoptosis regulation gene network in hepatocellular carcinoma can be applied to analyze other tumor forms providing a systemic understanding of disturbances in key regulatory processes in oncogenesis and potential therapy targets.

Effect of EGR1/LIPT1 regulatory axis on cuproptosis in chromophobe renal cell carcinoma. (PubMed, Brief Funct Genomics)
However, on this basis, knocking down EGR1 restored the anti-cancer effect conferred by overexpression of LIPT1. This work aimed to investigate the transcriptional activation of LIPT1 by EGR1 in RCC98 cells to repress the malignant progression of cancer cells while enhancing the sensitivity of RCC98 cells to cuproptosis.

Spatially resolved translational dysregulation in Grin2a +/- mouse model of schizophrenia. (PubMed, bioRxiv)
Non-neuronal cell types including astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, and vascular cells also exhibited region-specific translational changes in neurotransmitter transport, lipid synthesis, myelination, and stress response pathways, some of which co-varied with regional neuron state. Together, our study reveals brain-wide translation dysregulation as a critical mechanism underlying SCZ pathophysiology.

Early growth response 1 promotes RNA polymerase I-directed transcription and cancer growth by activating RRN3 expression. (PubMed, Commun Biol)
EGR1 activates RRN3 gene transcription by binding to the RRN3 gene promoter. Thus, EGR1 promotes Pol Ⅰ-directed transcription and cancer cell growth by both interacting with Pol I machinery factors and controlling RRN3 expression.

RNF126 writes a non-canonical ubiquitin code on midnolin to tune protein stability. (PubMed, Acta Biochim Biophys Sin (Shanghai))
In vivo dissection of the RNF126-MIDN axis shows that it governs EGR1 abundance and, consequently, the tumor-suppressor proteins PTEN and p53, thereby restraining the progression of testicular germ-cell tumors (TGCTs). Our findings reveal an unappreciated layer of MIDN regulation and identify the RNF126-MIDN ubiquitination cascade as a potential therapeutic vulnerability in TGCTs and related malignancies.

MLN4924 promotes the transcriptional activation of BTG2 via the ROS/EGR1-mediated signaling axis to suppress acute myeloid leukemia progression. (PubMed, Acta Biochim Biophys Sin (Shanghai))
In conclusion, these findings suggest that MLN4924 exerts an anti-tumor effect on AML by inducing apoptosis through the ROS-EGR1-BTG2 signaling axis. Our research provides a novel theoretical basis for the clinical potential of MLN4924 in improving the treatment of AML patients, offers novel strategies for AML treatment, and thereby advances the implementation of precision medicine.

Targeting senescent EGR1+ B cells enhances immunotherapy efficacy in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. (PubMed, Cell Rep Med)
Furthermore, fisetin was identified as an anti-senescence drug for mitigating B cell senescence and enhancing NICB efficacy. Our findings highlight the role of senescent EGR1+ B cells in ESCC immunotherapy failure and suggest targeting B cell senescence as a strategy to improve NICB outcomes.

Electroacupuncture regulates histone acetylation to improve spatial memory impairment in rats with chronic cerebral hypoperfusion. (PubMed, J Integr Med)
EA can improve spatial memory impairment in CHH rats by regulating the expression of the hippocampal imprinted genes c-Fos and Egr1 and by enhancing synaptic plasticity through the epigenetic modification of histone H3 and H4 acetylation. Please cite this article as: Ding YY, Wang WJ, Chen LW, Yang MG, Dai YL, Li R, Cao YJ, Wang SN, Wang LM, Wu B, Chen LM, Liu WL.

Single-cell transcriptomics reveals systemic immune dysregulation in non-segmental vitiligo. (PubMed, Front Immunol)
This study provides the single-cell atlas of PBMCs in GP-NSV, uncovering profound transcriptional and compositional alterations across multiple immune cell subsets in active vitiligo. These findings offer novel insights into systemic immune dysregulation in GP-NSV and pave the way for novel targeted therapeutic strategies.

Solitary Fibrous Tumor of the Nasal Vestibule: A Case Report. (PubMed, Cureus)
To our knowledge, this case represents the second known example of an SFT originating in the nasal vestibule and highlights that even in anatomically constrained regions where en bloc excision is difficult, meticulous piecemeal endoscopic resection can achieve complete tumor clearance and favorable early outcomes. Long-term surveillance remains essential due to the potential for late recurrence.

Transcriptome-guided drug repurposing identifies selumetinib for an aggressive epithelial cancer. (PubMed, J Invest Dermatol)
RNA sequencing identified early growth response protein 1 (EGR1), fos proto-oncogene (FOS), and dual-specificity phosphatase 6 (DUSP6) as candidate biomarkers of treatment response. Selumetinib, identified by computational drug screening, demonstrates efficacy against RDEB-SCCs in vitro and in vivo, suggesting its potential for clinical use.
