LURAP1L-AS1 long noncoding RNA promotes breast cancer progression and associates with poor prognosis by Radhakrishnan Vishnubalaji, Dania Awata, Nehad M. Alajez

“…Bioinformatics analysis predicted LURAP1L-AS1 to function as a competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA), sponging key microRNAs, such as miR-7a-5p, miR-101-3p, miR-181a-5p, and miR-27a-3p, thereby modulating oncogenes including EZH2, MCL1, and KRAS, which are linked to increased cancer cell survival, proliferation, and metastasis.In addition to its role in TNBC, correlation analysis using breast cancer patient datasets revealed a significant association between LURAP1L-AS1 and ESR1 expression, suggesting its broader impact across breast cancer subtypes. …”

Molecular Dynamics Simulation of CO₂-ECBM Under Different Moisture Contents by Xiaoyu Cheng, Xuanping Gong, Cheng Cheng, Quangui Li, Ziqiang Li

“…In this study, Monte Carlo and molecular dynamics methods were used to investigate the microscopic mechanism of CH₄/CO₂ competitive adsorption and diffusion during CO₂-enhanced coal bed methane mining (ECBM) under different moisture contents, and the geological storage potential of CO₂ was predicted. The results showed that when the CO₂ and water binding sites were independent of each other, the water molecules changed the electrostatic potential around the coal molecules, resulting in enhanced CO₂ adsorption performance, as verified by the surface electrostatic potential. …”
