Nature of Epigenetic Aging from a Single-Cell Perspective

Research on the Essence of Epigenetic Aging from a Single-Cell Perspective Research Background As biological research progresses, scientists have discovered that changes in DNA methylation (DNAm) constitute one of the most reliable predictors of age—known as the epigenetic clock. However, the mechanisms underlying what these clocks precisely measur...

Plasma Proteomic Profiles Predict Future Dementia in Healthy Adults

Plasma Proteomic Profiles Predict Future Dementia in Healthy Adults

Plasma Proteomics Predicts the Future Risk of Dementia in Healthy Adults Background and Significance Predicting dementia has always been a significant challenge in the medical field. With the development of proteomics, biomarkers in the blood offer new opportunities for predicting the onset of dementia. This study focuses on data from the UK Bioban...

Epithelial−Mesenchymal Transition Induced by Tumor Cell-Intrinsic PD-L1 Signaling Predicts a Poor Response to Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors in PD-L1-High Lung Cancer

Tumor Cell-Intrinsic PD-L1 Signaling Induces Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition (EMT) Predicting Poor Response to Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors in PD-L1 High-Expressing Lung Cancer Research Background and Motivation In cancer immunotherapy, Programmed Death Ligand-1 (PD-L1) inhibits immune responses by binding to Programmed Death-1 (PD-1) receptors o...

Synergistic Antitumor Activity by Dual Blockade of CCR1 and CXCR2 Expressed on Myeloid Cells within the Tumor Microenvironment

Synergistic Antitumor Activity by Dual Blockade of CCR1 and CXCR2 Expressed on Myeloid Cells within the Tumor Microenvironment

Achieving Synergistic Antitumor Activity by Dual Blocking of CCR1 and CXCR2 Expression in Myeloid Cells Background Introduction Colorectal Cancer (CRC) poses a global health crisis, with its incidence and mortality rates rapidly rising in recent years. Over the past 15 years, the mortality rate of CRC has increased by more than 30%, and it is expec...

Hypoxia- and Postirradiation Reoxygenation-Induced HMHA1/ARHGAP45 Expression Contributes to Cancer Cell Invasion in a HIF-Dependent Manner

Contribution of HMHA1/ARHGAP45 Expression Induced by Hypoxia and Post-Radiation Reoxygenation to Cancer Cell Invasion: An HIF-Dependent Mechanism Background and Motivation Prior studies have extensively demonstrated that cancer cells in solid tumors acquire malignant characteristics such as invasiveness and treatment resistance under hypoxic condit...

Genomic Profiling of Small Bowel Adenocarcinoma: A Pooled Analysis from 3 Databases

Overview of Genomics in Small Bowel Adenocarcinoma: A Data Integration Analysis Based on Three Major Databases Background and Significance of the Study Small Bowel Adenocarcinoma (SBA) is a rare tumor, but its incidence has increased in recent years, especially in duodenal adenocarcinoma. Approximately 20% of SBA patients have certain susceptibilit...

Oncofetal SNRPE Promotes HCC Tumorigenesis by Regulating FGFR4 Expression through Alternative Splicing

Study on the Key Role of Oncofetal snrpe in the Tumorigenesis and Progression of Hepatocellular Carcinoma Research Background and Purpose Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the sixth most prevalent cancer worldwide and the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths. However, due to the lack of understanding of key molecular events in tumors, effec...

Tumour Microenvironment-Mediated Drug Resistance in Neuroblastoma

Background Research Background: Both intrinsic and extrinsic factors in the tumor microenvironment (TME) can lead to treatment resistance. This paper reveals that the Transforming Growth Factor (TGF)-β1 produced within the TME increases drug resistance in neuroblastoma (NB) cells. Drug resistance is the main cause of cancer treatment failure, usual...
