Identification and prognostic biomarkers among ZDHHC4/12/18/24, and APT2 in lung adenocarcinoma.

S-palmitoylases and S-depalmitoylases are differentially expressed in various cancers and several malignant tumors and show a strong prognostic ability. Notwithstanding, the potential clinical impact of S-palmitoylases and S-depalmitoylases, particularly in the prognosis and progression of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), has not been clarified. Expression levels of S-palmitoylases and S-depalmitoylases in LUAD were investigated using TCGA.

Epidemiological investigation of lower respiratory tract infections during influenza A (H1N1) pdm09 virus pandemic based on targeted next-generation sequencing.

Background: Co-infection has been a significant contributor to morbidity and mortality in previous influenza pandemics. However, the current influenza A (H1N1) pdm09 virus pandemic, as the first major outbreak following the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, may differ epidemiologically. Further investigation is necessary to understand the specific features and impact of this influenza A pandemic.
