Research Report on Fully Automated Multimodal MRI Multi-task Learning for Glioma Segmentation and IDH Gene Typing Background of the Study Glioma is the most common primary brain tumor in the central nervous system. According to the World Health Organization (WHO) 2016 classification, gliomas are divided into low-grade gliomas (LGG, grades II and II...
Globally, the most common and deadly malignant brain tumor is glioblastoma (Glioblastoma, GBM). In recent years, research has continuously attempted to predict the overall survival time (OS) of GBM patients using machine learning techniques based on preoperative single-modality or multi-modality imaging phenotypes. Although these machine learning m...
Research Report on the Regulation of Neuron-Glioma Interactions by CHD2 in Pediatric Gliomas Background High-grade gliomas (HGG) are fatal diseases in both adult and pediatric patients. Recent studies have shown that neuronal activity can promote the progression of various high-grade glioma subgroups. However, the epigenetic mechanisms regulating t...
St. Jude Survivorship Portal: Analysis and Sharing of Large-Scale Clinical and Genomic Data of Pediatric Cancer Survivors Research Background In the United States, the five-year survival rate for childhood cancer has increased from about 60% in the 1970s to over 85% today. Despite the significant improvement in survival rates, these childhood cance...
Introduction In the process of healthy hematopoiesis, a group of hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) contribute to all blood-related lineages. However, as we age, this process often leads to clonal hematopoiesis (CH), meaning the expansion of clones originating from a particular HSC, which then occupies a significant portion of blood cells and platelets...
In the current field of tumor treatment, precision medicine continues to be a research hotspot and development trend. With the advancement of science and technology, we have begun to more accurately understand the characteristics of tumor cells and their dependencies for survival, in hopes of finding new therapeutic targets. Particularly, strategie...
ZNF397 Deficiency Triggers TET2-Driven Lineage Plasticity and AR-Targeted Therapy Resistance in Prostate Cancer Academic Background and Research Motivation Existing research evidence suggests that cancer cell lineage plasticity and epigenetic reprogramming enable them to evade lineage-dependent targeted therapy by adopting lineage plasticity. Howev...
This study reveals a new targetable cancer subtype characterized by activating point mutations in the MET tyrosine kinase domain (TKD). Researchers identified MET TKD activating mutations in approximately 0.5% of patients across a genomic data set of over 600,000 cancer cases, encompassing various tumor types, with the highest prevalence in renal c...
Iron (Ferric Ion, Fe3+)-Dependent Telomerase Reactivation Drives Colorectal Cancer Development I. Research Background Colorectal Cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer globally, involving both genetic and non-genetic factors in its pathogenesis. Existing research shows a significant association between high iron content, hereditary iron overl...
Research Background: Suicide is a global public health challenge, but there is still significant uncertainty regarding the relationship between behavioral and physiological factors and suicide attempts (SA). Previous studies often focus on limited hypothesized factors such as mental illnesses (e.g., depression), personality and psychological traits...
