Systemic immune profiling of Omicron-infected subjects inoculated with different doses of inactivated virus vaccine.

SARS-CoV-2 primary strain-based vaccination exerts a protective effect against Omicron variants-initiated infection, symptom occurrence, and disease severity in a booster-dependent manner. Yet, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. During the 2022 Omicron outbreak in Shanghai, we enrolled 122 infected adults and 50 uninfected controls who had been unvaccinated or vaccinated with two or three doses of COVID-19 inactive vaccines and performed integrative analysis of 41-plex CyTOF, RNA-seq, and Olink on their peripheral blood samples. The frequencies of HLA-DRhi classical monocytes, non-classical monocytes, and Th1-like Tem tended to increase, whereas the frequency of Treg was reduced by booster vaccine, and they influenced symptom occurrence in a vaccine dose-dependent manner. Intercorrelation and mechanistic analysis suggested that the booster vaccination induced monocytic training, which would prime monocytic activation and maturation rather than differentiating into myeloid-derived suppressive cells upon Omicron infections. Overall, our study provides insights into how booster vaccination elaborates protective immunity across SARS-CoV-2 variants.

The cerebral lymphatic drainage system and its implications in epilepsy.

The central nervous system has long been thought to lack a clearance system similar to the peripheral lymphatic system. Therefore, the clearance of metabolic waste in the central nervous system has been a subject of great interest in neuroscience. Recently, the cerebral lymphatic drainage system, including the parenchymal clearance system and the meningeal lymphatic network, has attracted considerable attention. It has been extensively studied in various neurological disorders. Solute accumulation and neuroinflammation after epilepsy impair the blood-brain barrier, affecting the exchange and clearance between cerebrospinal fluid and interstitial fluid. Restoring their normal function may improve the prognosis of epilepsy. However, few studies have focused on providing a comprehensive overview of the brain clearance system and its significance in epilepsy. Therefore, this review addressed the structural composition, functions, and methods used to assess the cerebral lymphatic system, as well as the neglected association with epilepsy, and provided a theoretical basis for therapeutic approaches in epilepsy.

Neonatal IL-4 Over-Exposure is Accompanied by Macrophage Accumulation in Dura Mater After Instant Anti-inflammatory Cytokine Response in CSF.

Multiple studies have shown that clinical events resulting into neonatal IL-4 over-exposure, such as asthma in early life and food allergy, were associated with brain damage and that the neuroinflammation induced by them might lead to cognitive impairments, anxiety-/depressive-like behaviors. IL-4 is the most major elevated cytokine in periphery when these clinical events occur and peripheral IL-4 level positively correlates with the severity of those events. Our previous studies have verified that neonatal IL-4 over-exposure induced a delayed neuroinflammatory damage in rodents, which might have adverse implications for brain development and cognition. Neuroinflammation in brain parenchyma is often accompanied by changes in CSF cytokines levels. However, whether the cytokines levels in CSF change after neonatal IL-4 over-exposure is unknown. Here, we found a delayed pro-inflammatory cytokines response (higher IL-6, IL-1ß and, TNF levels) in both hippocampus and CSF after an instant anti-inflammatory cytokine response in IL-4 over-exposed rats. Moreover, the pro-inflammatory cytokines response appeared earlier in CSF than in hippocampus. The level of each of the pro-inflammatory cytokines in CSF positively correlated with that in hippocampus at the age of postnatal day 42. More microglia numbers/activation and higher M-CSF level in the hippocampus in IL-4 over-exposed rats were also observed. Furthermore, there were more macrophages with inflammatory activation in dural mater of IL-4 over-exposed rats. In sum, neonatal IL-4 over-exposure in rats induces delayed inflammation in CSF, suggesting CSF examination may serve as a potential method in predicting delayed neuroinflammation in brain following neonatal IL-4 over-exposure.

ATF5-regulated Mitochondrial Unfolded Protein Response Attenuates Neuronal Damage in Epileptic Rat by Reducing Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress Through Mitochondrial ROS.

Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) dysfunction caused by excessive ER stress is a crucial mechanism underlying seizures-induced neuronal injury. Studies have shown that mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) are closely related to ER stress, and our previous study showed that activating transcription factor 5 (ATF5)-regulated mitochondrial unfolded protein response (mtUPR) modulated mitochondrial ROS generation in a hippocampal neuronal culture model of seizures. However, the effects of ATF5-regulated mtUPR on ER stress and the underlying mechanisms remain uncertain in epilepsy. In this study, ATF5 upregulation by lentivirus infection attenuated seizures-induced neuronal damage and apoptosis in a rat model of pilocarpine-induced epilepsy, whereas ATF5 downregulation by lentivirus infection had the opposite effects. ATF5 upregulation potentiated mtUPR by increasing the expression of mitochondrial chaperone heat shock protein 60 (HSP60) and caseinolytic protease proteolytic subunit (ClpP) and reducing mitochondrial ROS generation in pilocarpine-induced seizures in rats. Additionally, upregulation of ATF5 reduced the expression of glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78), protein kinase RNA-like endoplasmic reticulum kinase (PERK), activating transcription factor 4 (ATF4), and C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP), suggesting suppression of ER stress; Moreover, ATF5 upregulation attenuated apoptosis-related proteins such as B-cell lymphoma-2 (BCL2) downregulation, BCL2-associated X (BAX) and cleaved-caspase-3 upregulation. However, ATF5 downregulation exerted the opposite effects. Furthermore, pretreatment with the mitochondria-targeted antioxidant mito-TEMPO attenuated the harmful effects of ATF5 downregulation on ER stress and neuronal apoptosis by reducing mitochondrial ROS generation. Overall, our study suggested that ATF5-regulated mtUPR exerted neuroprotective effects against pilocarpine-induced seizures in rats and the underlying mechanisms might involve mitochondrial ROS-mediated ER stress.

Family cohesion and quality of life significantly affecting personality changes in adult epilepsy patients: a case-control study.

OBJECTIVE: The goal of epilepsy treatment is not only to control convulsive seizures but also to improve the quality of life of patients. This study aimed to investigate personality changes and the risk factors for their development in adult epilepsy patients. METHODS: A case-control study in a Class III, Class A hospital. The study comprised 206 adult epilepsy patients admitted to the Neurology Department at the First Hospital of Jilin University between October 2019 and December 2021, while the control group consisted of 154 community volunteers matched with the epilepsy group based on age, sex, and education. No additional treatment interventions were determined to be relevant in the context of this study. RESULTS: There is a significantly higher incidence of personality changes in epilepsy than in the general population, and patients with epilepsy were more likely to become psychoticism, neuroticism, and lie. Epilepsy patient's employment rate and average quality of life score were significantly lower than that of the general population and had strong family intimacy but poor adaptability in this study. There are many factors affecting personality change: sleep disorders, economic status, quality of life, use of anti-seizure drugs, family cohesion and adaptability. The independent risk factors were quality of life and family cohesion.

Activating Transcription Factor 4-mediated Mitochondrial Unfolded Protein Response Alleviates Hippocampal Neuronal Damage in an In Vitro Model of Epileptiform Discharges.

The mitochondrial unfolded protein response (mtUPR) has been shown to restore protein homeostasis and cell function under stress, and recent studies have confirmed that the activating transcription factor 4 (ATF4) regulates mtUPR. However, the role of ATF4-mediated mtUPR in a hippocampal neuronal culture model of seizures remains unclear. Our results showed that the expression of mtUPR-related proteins (HSP60 and CLpP) increased in primary hippocampal neurons with seizures induced by a magnesium-free solution, suggesting mtUPR activation. Furthermore, ATF4 overexpression by lentiviral vector transfection enhanced the expression of HSP60 and CLpP, whereas ATF4 low expression by lentiviral vector transfection weakened the expression of HSP60 and CLpP. In addition, ATF4 overexpression increased neuronal viability and reduced seizure-induced apoptosis. ATF4 overexpression reduced reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and improved mitochondrial membrane potential damage during seizures. Moreover, ATF4 overexpression reduced the BCL2-associated X protein (Bax) expression and increased the expression of B-cell lymphoma 2 (BCL2). In contrast, ATF4 expression showed the opposite trend. In conclusion, our results showed that ATF4-mediated mtUPR may delay the cascade activation of apoptotic pathways by reducing ROS-mediated oxidative stress, thereby attenuating seizure-induced stress injury.

Single internal carotid cavernous sinus aneurysm presented as bilateral painful ophthalmoplegia: a case report.

BACKGROUND: Intracranial aneurysms are the most common vascular cause of painful ophthalmoplegia. Symptoms include retro-orbital pain, diplopia, ophthalmoplegia, trigeminal neuropathy, or a combination of these. Most single aneurysms cause ipsilateral, painful ophthalmoplegia. Here, we report the first, to our knowledge, case of bilateral painful ophthalmoplegia possibly caused by an aneurysm of the cavernous segment of the left internal carotid artery. CASE PRESENTATION: A 62-year-old male patient presented with headache and bilateral ptosis. Laboratory tests revealed hypopituitary function. Computerized tomography angiography showed a large aneurysm in the cavernous sinus segment of the left internal carotid artery. Aneurysm embolization was performed in the Nerve Interventional Department. Four months after surgery, the patient's symptoms returned to normal. CONCLUSIONS: This case suggests that patients with bilateral painful ophthalmoplegia should be screened for aneurysms using computed tomography angiography or magnetic resonance angiography immediately.

A novel mutation in human EMD gene and mitochondrial dysfunction in emerin knockdown cardiomyocytes.

Emerin is an inner nuclear envelope protein encoded by the EMD gene, mutations in which cause Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy type 1 (EDMD1). Cardiac involvement has become a major threat to patients with EDMD1; however, the cardiovascular phenotype spectrums of emerinopathy and the mechanisms by which emerin regulates cardiac pathophysiology remain unclear. Here, we identified a novel nonsense mutation (c.C57G, p.Y19X) in the EMD gene in a Han Chinese family through high-throughput sequencing. Two family members were found to have EDMD1 with muscle weakness and cardiac arrhythmia. Mechanistically, we first discovered that knockdown of emerin in HL-1 or H9C2 cardiomyocytes lead to impaired mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation capacity with downregulation of electron transport chain complex I and IV and upregulation of complex III and V. Moreover, loss of emerin in HL-1 cells resulted in collapsed mitochondrial membrane potential, altered mitochondrial networks and downregulated multiple factors in RNA and protein level, such as PGC1α, DRP1, MFF, MFN2, which are involved in regulation of mitochondrial biogenesis, fission and fusion. Our findings suggest that targeting mitochondrial bioenergetics might be an effective strategy against cardiac disorders caused by EMD mutations.

CD206+CD68+ mono-macrophages and serum soluble CD206 level are increased in antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies associated glomerulonephritis.

BACKGROUND: Antineutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibodies (ANCA) associated glomerulonephritis (AGN) is a group of autoimmune diseases and mono-macrophages are involved in its glomerular injuries. In this study, we aim to investigate the role of CD206+ mono-macrophages in AGN. METHODS: 27 AGN patients (14 active AGN, 13 remissive AGN) together with healthy controls (n = 9), disease controls (n = 6) and kidney function adjusted controls (n = 9) from Department of Nephrology, Ruijin hospital were recruited. Flow cytometry was used to study proportion of CD206+ cells in peripheral blood. Immunohistochemistry for CD206 staining was performed and CD206 expression was scored in different kidney regions. Serum soluble CD206 (sCD206) was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). We also generated murine myeloperoxidase (MPO) (muMPO) ANCA by immunizing Mpo-/- mice. Mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) from wild C57BL/6 mice and peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) derived macrophages from healthy donors were treated with MPO ANCA with or without its inhibitor AZD5904 to investigate the effects of MPO-ANCA on CD206 expression. RESULTS: The proportion of peripheral CD206+CD68+ cells in active AGN patients were significantly higher than that in remissive patients (p < 0.001), healthy controls (p < 0.001) and kidney function adjusted controls (p < 0.001). Serum sCD206 level in active AGN patients was higher than that in healthy controls (p < 0.05) and remissive patients (p < 0.01). Immunohistochemistry showed CD206 was highly expressed in different kidney regions including fibrinoid necrosis or crescent formation, glomeruli, periglomerular and tubulointerstitial compartment in active AGN patients in comparison with disease controls. Further studies showed MPO ANCA could induce CD206 expression in BMDMs and PBMC derived macrophages and such effects could be reversed by its inhibitor AZD5904. CONCLUSION: ANCA could induce CD206 expression on mono-macrophages and CD206+ mono-macrophages are activated in AGN. CD206 might be involved in the pathogenesis of AAV and may be a potential target for the disease.

Different roles of E proteins in t(8;21) leukemia: E2-2 compromises the function of AETFC and negatively regulates leukemogenesis.

The AML1-ETO fusion protein, generated by the t(8;21) chromosomal translocation, is causally involved in nearly 20% of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cases. In leukemic cells, AML1-ETO resides in and functions through a stable protein complex, AML1-ETO-containing transcription factor complex (AETFC), that contains multiple transcription (co)factors. Among these AETFC components, HEB and E2A, two members of the ubiquitously expressed E proteins, directly interact with AML1-ETO, confer new DNA-binding capacity to AETFC, and are essential for leukemogenesis. However, the third E protein, E2-2, is specifically silenced in AML1-ETO-expressing leukemic cells, suggesting E2-2 as a negative factor of leukemogenesis. Indeed, ectopic expression of E2-2 selectively inhibits the growth of AML1-ETO-expressing leukemic cells, and this inhibition requires the bHLH DNA-binding domain. RNA-seq and ChIP-seq analyses reveal that, despite some overlap, the three E proteins differentially regulate many target genes. In particular, studies show that E2-2 both redistributes AETFC to, and activates, some genes associated with dendritic cell differentiation and represses MYC target genes. In AML patients, the expression of E2-2 is relatively lower in the t(8;21) subtype, and an E2-2 target gene, THPO, is identified as a potential predictor of relapse. In a mouse model of human t(8;21) leukemia, E2-2 suppression accelerates leukemogenesis. Taken together, these results reveal that, in contrast to HEB and E2A, which facilitate AML1-ETO-mediated leukemogenesis, E2-2 compromises the function of AETFC and negatively regulates leukemogenesis. The three E proteins thus define a heterogeneity of AETFC, which improves our understanding of the precise mechanism of leukemogenesis and assists development of diagnostic/therapeutic strategies.

Increased glycolysis in skeletal muscle coordinates with adipose tissue in systemic metabolic homeostasis.

Insulin-independent glucose metabolism, including anaerobic glycolysis that is promoted in resistance training, plays critical roles in glucose disposal and systemic metabolic regulation. However, the underlying mechanisms are not completely understood. In this study, through genetically manipulating the glycolytic process by overexpressing human glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1), hexokinase 2 (HK2) and 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase-fructose-2,6-biphosphatase 3 (PFKFB3) in mouse skeletal muscle, we examined the impact of enhanced glycolysis in metabolic homeostasis. Enhanced glycolysis in skeletal muscle promoted accelerated glucose disposal, a lean phenotype and a high metabolic rate in mice despite attenuated lipid metabolism in muscle, even under High-Fat diet (HFD). Further study revealed that the glucose metabolite sensor carbohydrate-response element-binding protein (ChREBP) was activated in the highly glycolytic muscle and stimulated the elevation of plasma fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21), possibly mediating enhanced lipid oxidation in adipose tissue and contributing to a systemic effect. PFKFB3 was critically involved in promoting the glucose-sensing mechanism in myocytes. Thus, a high level of glycolysis in skeletal muscle may be intrinsically coupled to distal lipid metabolism through intracellular glucose sensing. This study provides novel insights for the benefit of resistance training and for manipulating insulin-independent glucose metabolism.

Identification of fusion genes and characterization of transcriptome features in T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) is a clonal malignancy of immature T cells. Recently, the next-generation sequencing approach has allowed systematic identification of molecular features in pediatric T-ALL. Here, by performing RNA-sequencing and other genomewide analysis, we investigated the genomic landscape in 61 adult and 69 pediatric T-ALL cases. Thirty-six distinct gene fusion transcripts were identified, with SET-NUP214 being highly related to adult cases. Among 18 previously unknown fusions, ZBTB16-ABL1, TRA-SALL2, and involvement of NKX2-1 were recurrent events. ZBTB16-ABL1 functioned as a leukemogenic driver and responded to the effect of tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Among 48 genes with mutation rates >3%, 6 were newly found in T-ALL. An aberrantly overexpressed short mRNA transcript of the SLC17A9 gene was revealed in most cases with overexpressed TAL1, which predicted a poor prognosis in the adult group. Up-regulation of HOXA, MEF2C, and LYL1 was often present in adult cases, while TAL1 overexpression was detected mainly in the pediatric group. Although most gene fusions were mutually exclusive, they coexisted with gene mutations. These genetic abnormalities were correlated with deregulated gene expression markers in three subgroups. This study may further enrich the current knowledge of T-ALL molecular pathogenesis.

p53 pathway is involved in cell competition during mouse embryogenesis.

The function of tumor suppressor p53 has been under intense investigation. Acute stresses such as DNA damage are able to trigger a high level of p53 activity, leading to cell cycle arrest or apoptosis. In contrast, the cellular response of mild p53 activity induced by low-level stress in vivo remains largely unexplored. Murine double minute (MDM)2 and MDM4 are two major negative regulators of p53. Here, we used the strategy of haploinsufficiency of Mdm2 and Mdm4 to induce mild p53 activation in vivo and found that Mdm2+/-Mdm4+/- double-heterozygous mice exhibited normal embryogenesis. However, closer examination demonstrated that the Mdm2+/-Mdm4+/- cells exhibited a growth disadvantage and were outcompeted during development in genetic mosaic embryos that contained wild-type cells. Further study indicated the out-competition phenotype was dependent on the levels of p53. These observations revealed that cells with mild p53 activation were less fit and exhibited altered fates in a heterotypic environment, resembling the cell competition phenomenon first uncovered in Drosophila By marking unfit cells for elimination, p53 may exert its physiological role to ensure organ and animal fitness.

Mouse Double Minute 2 Actively Suppresses p53 Activity in Oocytes during Mouse Folliculogenesis.

The p53 signaling network is indispensible in cellular stress responses and tumor suppression. Negative regulations of p53 by mouse double minute 2 (MDM2) and its homolog MDM4 are an integrated component of the network and have been implicated in regulating the stress responses and the maintenance of normal development and homeostasis of multiple somatic cell lineages. However, the regulatory role of MDM2 on p53 and stress responses in female germ cells remains undetermined. Here, we used the Cre-loxP system to delete Mdm2 in oocytes at different stages of folliculogenesis in mice. Mdm2 deletion resulted in a clear p53 nuclear accumulation in the oocytes and impeded fertilities with early follicular loss in mice, resembling human premature ovarian failure phenotypes. These phenotypes were fully rescued by concurrent deletion of p53 in mice. In addition, Nutlin-3, a small molecule compound that inhibited the binding of MDM2 to p53, also promoted p53-dependent oocyte death. Although cancer therapeutic agents 5-fluorouracil and doxorubicin could not induce a robust p53 activation in the wild-type oocytes, they induced p53 nuclear accumulation in the Mdm2 and Mdm4 double heterozygous oocytes. These results demonstrated a critical prosurvival role for MDM2 in the oocytes. Moreover, they suggested a more tightened and rigorous regulatory mode for the MDM2/MDM4-p53 network in female germ cells under stress situations.

Vibsanin B preferentially targets HSP90ß, inhibits interstitial leukocyte migration, and ameliorates experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis.

Interstitial leukocyte migration plays a critical role in inflammation and offers a therapeutic target for treating inflammation-associated diseases such as multiple sclerosis. Identifying small molecules to inhibit undesired leukocyte migration provides promise for the treatment of these disorders. In this study, we identified vibsanin B, a novel macrocyclic diterpenoid isolated from Viburnum odoratissimum Ker-Gawl, that inhibited zebrafish interstitial leukocyte migration using a transgenic zebrafish line (TG:zlyz-enhanced GFP). We found that vibsanin B preferentially binds to heat shock protein (HSP)90ß. At the molecular level, inactivation of HSP90 can mimic vibsanin B's effect of inhibiting interstitial leukocyte migration. Furthermore, we demonstrated that vibsanin B ameliorates experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis in mice with pathological manifestation of decreased leukocyte infiltration into their CNS. In summary, vibsanin B is a novel lead compound that preferentially targets HSP90ß and inhibits interstitial leukocyte migration, offering a promising drug lead for treating inflammation-associated diseases.

Rig-I regulates NF-κB activity through binding to Nf-κb1 3'-UTR mRNA.

Retinoic acid inducible gene I (RIG-I) senses viral RNAs and triggers innate antiviral responses through induction of type I IFNs and inflammatory cytokines. However, whether RIG-I interacts with host cellular RNA remains undetermined. Here we report that Rig-I interacts with multiple cellular mRNAs, especially Nf-κb1. Rig-I is required for NF-κB activity via regulating Nf-κb1 expression at posttranscriptional levels. It interacts with the multiple binding sites within 3'-UTR of Nf-κb1 mRNA. Further analyses reveal that three distinct tandem motifs enriched in the 3'-UTR fragments can be recognized by Rig-I. The 3'-UTR binding with Rig-I plays a critical role in normal translation of Nf-κb1 by recruiting the ribosomal proteins [ribosomal protein L13 (Rpl13) and Rpl8] and rRNAs (18S and 28S). Down-regulation of Rig-I or Rpl13 significantly reduces Nf-κb1 and 3'-UTR-mediated luciferase expression levels. These findings indicate that Rig-I functions as a positive regulator for NF-κB signaling and is involved in multiple biological processes in addition to host antivirus immunity.

Identification of nestin as a urinary biomarker for acute kidney injury.

OBJECTIVES: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication in hospitalized patients and the incidence of AKI is rapidly increasing. Despite the advances in treatment of AKI, many patients still progress to end-stage renal disease and depend on dialysis. Therefore, early diagnosis and adequate treatment of AKI could improve prognosis. METHODS: We established rat models of AKI induced by cisplatin nephrotoxicity and renal ischemia-reperfusion (I/R). Urine samples were collected, labeled with isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantification agents, and then subjected to nano-LC-MS/MS-based proteomic analysis. Results of the proteomic study were confirmed by Western blot. We also performed RNAi to silence nestin and investigate its role in renal I/R injury. We then validated its clinical application by studying urine nestin levels in AKI patients with cardiovascular surgeries. RESULTS: Our proteomic analysis showed that fetuin-A, nestin, hamartin and T-kininogen were differentially expressed in the urine samples of rats after cisplatin or I/R treatment. Western blot confirmed the differential expression of these proteins in animal models and ELISA confirmed the differential expression of nestin in human urine samples. To explore the expression of nestin in the development of AKI, our results showed that nestin was primarily detected in the glomeruli and barely detected in tubular cells but increased in tubular cells during I/R- and cisplatin-induced AKI. The urine nestin-to-creatinine ratio increased earlier than serum creatinine in AKI patients with postcardiovascular surgeries. The role of nestin in AKI might be related to the p53 signaling pathway. CONCLUSIONS: Thus, our results demonstrated that urinary nestin could be a urinary biomarker for patients with AKI and its role in AKI might be related to the p53 signaling pathway.

[Effects of miR-145 on the migration and invasion of prostate cancer PC3 cells by targeting DAB2].

It was reported that miR-145, which is significantly decreased in a variety of tumor cells, is associated with cell proliferation and metastasis. In this study, using bioinformatics analysis and in vitro assays, we identified DAB2 (Disabled homolog 2) as a downstream target gene of miR-145 during tumor metastasis process. DAB2 has been characterized as an important tumor suppressor, and is usually expressed at low levels in tumor cells. However, in this study, the relative high-level expression of DAB2 gene was observed in the highly invasive prostate cancer PC3 cells. Moreover, enforced expression of miR-145 could significantly down-regulate the expression level of DAB2 in PC3 cells, and inhibit the migration and invasion of PC3 cells. Notably, dysfunction of PC3 cells induced by miR-145 overexpression can be rescued by co-overexpression of DAB2. These results demonstrate that miR-145 regulates the migration and invasion of highly invasive prostate cancer cells through targeting DAB2 gene.
