Lentivirus-mediated downregulation of TET2 could impair MAGI2-AS3-mediated elevation of LRIG1 and neutralize the inhibitory effect of MAGI2-AS3 on LSCs self-renewal. In vivo analysis indicated an elevated overall survival of NOD/SCID mice injected with LSCs in the presence of MAGI2-AS3. Altogether, the key findings support the potential of lncRNA MAGI2-AS3 to serve as a novel candidate for the improvement of AML treatment.Malignant tumors can be targeted by accounting for their metastatic capabilities. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are the key players in tumor metastasis facilitating through their proteolytic activities of angiogenesis and extracellular matrix components (ECM) degradation. MMP-2 and MMP-9 being the members of a distinguished class of MMPs more commonly known as gelatinases are the prominent enzymes which are involved in different cancer progression stages. Targeting these isoforms specifically has always been a challenging task due to highly similar structural and functional features among the other members of MMPs with well preserve active sites containing catalytic zinc atom that was the only reason that none of the MMP inhibitor has been successfully marketed for the tumor pathology up till now. Therefore, non-competitive inhibitors with different structural attributed are needed to be evaluated at the molecular level for further experiments. The present study deals with the application of molecular dynamics simulation for the investigation of an alternative pathway for the inhibition of MMP-2 and MMP-9 by a sesquiterpene isolated from Polygonum barbatum which demonstrates the characteristics binding to the S1' subsite of the enzymes followed by in vitro gene expression studies. The simulation results provide information on the possible binding profile produc
