Glioma stem cells (GSCs) are a special kind of cells in GBM showing tumor initiation, self-renewal, and multi-lineage differentiation abilities. Finding novel circRNAs related to GSCs is of great significance for the study of glioma. qPCR, western blotting, and immunohistochemistry were used to detect the expression levels of circKPNB1, SPI1, DGCR8, and TNF-α. The expression of these molecules in GSCs was regulated by lentiviral-based infection. RNA immunoprecipitation assay, RNA pull-down, dual-luciferase reporter, and chromatin immunoprecipitation assays were used to study the direct regulation mechanisms among these molecules. All the MTS, EDU, transwell, neurosphere formation assays, ELDA assays, and xenograft experiments were used to detect the malignant phenotype of GSCs. We found a novel circRNA circKPNB1 was overexpressed in GBM and associated with GBM patients' poor prognosis. CircKPNB1 overexpression can promote the cell viabilities, proliferation, invasion, neurospheres formation abilities, and stemness of GSCs. Mechanistically, circKPNB1 regulates the protein stability and nuclear translocation of SPI1. SPI1 promotes the malignant phenotype of GSCs via TNF-α mediated NF-κB signaling. SPI1 can also transcriptionally upregulate DGCR8 expression, and the latter can maintain the stability of circKPNB1 and forms a positive feedback loop among DGCR8, circKPNB1 and SPI1. Our study found circKPNB1 was a novel oncogene in GBM and of great significance in the diagnosis and prognosis prediction of GBM and maybe a novel target for molecular targeted therapy. read more

ELDA: extreme limiting dilution analysis for comparing depleted and enriched populations in stem cell and other assays.
Yifang Hu,Gordon K. Smyth +1 more
TL;DR: ELDA is a software application for limiting dilution analysis (LDA), with particular attention to the needs of stem cell assays, which is the first limiting dilutions analysis software to provide meaningful confidence intervals for all LDA data sets, including those with 0% or 100% responses.

Ferric, not ferrous, heme activates RNA-binding protein DGCR8 for primary microRNA processing
TL;DR: Direct biochemical evidence for ferric heme serving as an activator for miRNA maturation is provided, and an intracellular environment increasing the availability of ferrous heme may enhance the efficiency of pri-miRNA processing is suggested.
