Approximately 50% of melanoma patients fail to respond to immune checkpoint blockade (ICB), and acquired resistance hampers long-term survival in about half of initially responding patients. Whether targeting BET reader proteins, implicated in epigenetic dysregulation, can enhance ICB response rates and durability, remains to be determined. Here we show elevated BET proteins correlate with poor survival and ICB responses in melanoma patients.

Aims: Drivers of the drug tolerant proliferative persister (DTPP) state have not been well investigated. Histone H3 lysine-4 trimethylation (H3K4me3), an active histone mark, might enable slow cycling drug tolerant persisters (DTP) to regain proliferative capacity. This study aimed to determine H3K4me3 transcriptionally active sites identifying a key regulator of DTPPs.

Purpose: This investigation aimed to study the outcome of percutaneous repair of Achilles tendon ruptures regarding patient-reported and objective outcomes.

Methods: This is a retrospective review of a cohort of patients (n = 24) who underwent percutaneous repair of neglected Achilles rupture in the period between 2013 and 2019. Included patients were adults with closed injuries, presented 4-10 weeks after rupture, with intact deep sensation.

Background: Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is a common condition of hyperandrogenism, chronic ovulation, and polycystic ovaries in females during the reproduction and maturation of the ovum. Although PCOS has been associated with metabolic disorders, including type 2 diabetes (T2D), obesity (OBE), and cardiovascular disease (CVD), Causal connection and molecular features are still unknown.

Purpose: Therefore, we investigated the shared common differentially expressed genes (DEGs), pathways, and networks of associated proteins in PCOS and metabolic diseases with therapeutic intervention.

Article Synopsis
  • A study in India investigates the lived experiences of women diagnosed with dissociative disorders (DDs), focusing on their subjective perspectives rather than just quantitative data.
  • Five women seeking treatment participated in in-depth interviews, which were analyzed to understand their experiences better.
  • The findings reveal that cultural influences affect how these women perceive their illness, often prioritizing relational harmony over personal expression, leading them to suppress their own needs to avoid conflict.
