The role of miR-765 in human cancers.

MicroRNAs, a collection of short noncoding RNAs, are promising biomarkers for identifying cancer in its early stages and tracking the effectiveness of treatment. This is due to their critical role in regulating gene expression and other vital biological functions via cell-level epigenetic mechanisms. This review brings together data on the molecular and clinical effects of miR-765 on different types of cancer. Significant variation in miR-765 levels has been observed in a variety of cancer types, suggesting that it could have an oncogene or tumor suppressor role. A number of pathways, including PLP2/Notch, VEGFA/Akt1, PDX1, KLK4, RUNX2, DPF3, EMP3, APE1, ERK/EMT axis, and others, are impacted by the inclusion of miR-765 in their analysis. MiR-765 is an essential biomarker that shows promise as a diagnostic tool for various types of cancer. The latest research has identified them as reliable predictive markers for detecting tumor development at an early stage. Based on our study, miR-765 shows promising potential as a biomarker for prognosis in multiple types of cancer. Specifically, we suggest that miR-765 could be an early detection marker for tumor development, progression, and metastasis.

Application of mesenchymal stem cells derived from the umbilical cord or Wharton's jelly and their extracellular vesicles in the treatment of various diseases.

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) originating from the umbilical cord (UC) or Wharton's jelly (WJ) have attracted substantial interest due to their potential to augment therapeutic approaches for a wide range of disorders. These cells demonstrate a wide range of capabilities in the process of differentiating into a multitude of cell types. Additionally, they possess a significant capacity for proliferation and are conveniently accessible. Furthermore, they possess a status of being immune-privileged, exhibit minimal tumorigenic characteristics, and raise minimal ethical concerns. Consequently, they are well-suited candidates for tissue regeneration and the treatment of diseases. Additionally, UC-derived MSCs offer a substantial yield compared to other sources. The therapeutic effects of these MSCs are closely associated with the release of nanosized extracellular vesicles (EVs), including exosomes and microvesicles (MVs), containing lipids, microRNAs, and proteins that facilitate intercellular communication. Due to their reduced tumorigenic and immunogenic characteristics, in addition to their convenient manipulability, EVs have arisen as a viable alternative for the management of disorders. The favorable characteristics of UC-MSCs or WJ-MSCs and their EVs have generated significant attention in clinical investigations encompassing diverse pathologies. Therefore, we present a review encompassing current preclinical and clinical investigations, examining the implications of UC-MSCs in diverse diseases, including those affecting bone, cartilage, skin, liver, kidney, neural, lung, cardiovascular, muscle, and retinal tissues, as well as conditions like cancer, diabetes, sepsis, and others.
