Distinct Clinical Outcomes and Biological Features of Specific KRAS Mutants in Human Pancreatic Cancer

Clinical Outcomes and Biological Characteristics Study Report for Pancreatic Cancer Patients with KRAS Mutations Research Background and Objective Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is predicted to become the second leading cause of cancer death by 2030. Only about 20% of PDAC patients are eligible for resection surgery, thus the five-year sur...

GABAergic Neuronal Lineage Development Determines Clinically Actionable Targets in Diffuse Hemispheric Glioma

Background and Research Objectives High-Grade Glioma (HGG) is a highly lethal primary brain tumor with a particularly high incidence and mortality rate in children and adolescents. HGG can be further divided into several subtypes, among which Diffuse Hemispheric Glioma, H3G34-mutant (DHG-H3G34), is a rare subtype with poor prognosis, mainly occurri...

FUS/CircZEB1/miR-128-3p/LBH Feedback Loop Promotes Malignant Phenotype of GSCs via TNF-α Mediated NF-κB Signaling Pathway

The Role of the Novel Circular RNA circZEB1 in the Malignant Phenotype of Glioblastoma Stem Cells and Its Molecular Mechanism Research Background Glioblastoma (GBM) is one of the most aggressive and fatal primary tumors in the central nervous system, with a very poor prognosis for patients. Even with surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy, the ave...

Life History Dynamics of Evolving Tumors: Insights into Task Specialization, Trade-offs, and Tumor Heterogeneity

Cancer Cell International - Review Report Background and Motivation In recent decades, research into cancer evolution has gradually revealed that the evolutionary patterns of cancer cells share many similarities with species evolution. This notion has changed our understanding of tumor evolution and heterogeneity. Cancer is initiated by the mutatio...

Systematic Multiomics Analysis and In Vitro Experiments Suggest ITGA5 as a Promising Therapeutic Target for CCRCC

Systematic Multi-Omics Analysis and In Vitro Experiments Suggest ITGA5 as a Potential Target for Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma (ccRCC) Treatment Research Background and Motivation Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is the most common subtype of renal cell carcinoma (RCC), accounting for about 75% of all kidney cancer cases. According to the ...

Identification and Validation of a Prognostic Model Based on Three TLS-Related Genes in Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Research Report: Validation and Analysis of a Prognostic Model for Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma Constructed with TLS-Related Genes Background and Research Motivation Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma (OSCC) is the most common subtype of Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma (HNSCC), exhibiting a high tendency for lymph node metastasis, especially to the...

The Clinical and Genetic Spectrum of Inherited Glycosylphosphatidylinositol Deficiency Disorders

Clinical and Genetic Spectrum Study of Inherited Glycosylphosphatidylinositol Deficiency Disorders (IGDs) Background Introduction The glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchoring pathway is crucial for post-translational modification of many important proteins in eukaryotes, which are fundamental for cell signaling and early human neurogenesis and ...

Thompson, Leah Schust Myers, Erica Anderson, Lindsey Evans, Ariela J. E. Kaiser, Katherine Paltell, Amanda N. Nili, Jean-Marc L. Dekeyser, Tatiana V. Abramova, Gerry Nesbitt, Shawn ...

Parkinson’s Disease Variant Detection and Disclosure: PD Generation, A North American Study

Parkinson’s Disease Variant Detection and Disclosure: Comprehensive Report Background Parkinson’s Disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder primarily characterized by motor dysfunction and non-motor symptoms. Research has shown that at least seven genes (LRRK2, GBA1, PRKN, SNCA, PINK1, PARK7, VPS35) are directly related to the occurr...

Towards Cascading Genetic Risk in Alzheimer’s Disease

Cascading Pattern in Genetic Risk Research for Alzheimer’s Disease Background and Research Motivation Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a slowly progressing neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the accumulation of two pathological features: amyloid plaques and phosphorylated tau neurofibrillary tangles. These pathological features typically exist ...
