Integrated single-cell analysis reveals heterogeneity and therapeutic insights in osteosarcoma.

Osteosarcoma (OSA) is a primary bone malignancy characterized by its aggressive nature and high propensity for metastasis. Despite advancements in multimodal therapies, the clinical outcomes for OSA patients remain suboptimal, necessitating deeper molecular insights for improved therapeutic strategies. Here, we employed single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) to elucidate the cellular heterogeneity and transcriptional dynamics of OSA tumors.

Significance of pyroptosis-related gene in the diagnosis and classification of rheumatoid arthritis.

Background: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA), a chronic autoimmune inflammatory disease, is often characterized by persistent morning stiffness, joint pain, and swelling. Early diagnosis and timely treatment of RA can effectively delay the progression of the condition and significantly reduce the incidence of disability. In the study, we explored the function of pyroptosis-related genes (PRGs) in the diagnosis and classification of rheumatoid arthritis based on Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) datasets.
