Background: Sulfur microbial diet (SMD) is a dietary pattern closely related to the intestinal load of sulfur-metabolizing microbes in humans. Diet and microbes may play an important role in the carcinogenesis of esophagus. However, epidemiological studies on SMD and esophageal cancer (EC) risk are scarce.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFPurpose: Low-fat dietary (LFD) pattern refers to a dietary structure with reduced fat intake. The aim was to investigate the association between LFD pattern and risk of head and neck cancer (HNC).
Methods: Data were derived from the Prostate, Lung, Colorectal and Ovarian (PLCO) Cancer Screening Trial.

Background: Current evidence highlights clear cell renal carcinoma (ccRCC) as the most prevalent form of kidney cancer despite ongoing challenges in treating advanced-stage disease. Integrin subunit beta 3 (ITGB3) has recently emerged as a critical player in tumorigenesis, prompting our investigation into its role in ccRCC. This study aimed to elucidate the mechanisms responsible for ITGB3 downregulation and evaluate its clinical significance, particularly regarding its impact on the immune landscape within ccRCC.

However, there is currently no epidemiological research to investigate this potential association.
Methods: The present study utilized data on demographics, lifestyles, medications, and diets of participants from the Prostate, Lung, Colorectal, and Ovarian (PLCO) Cancer Screening Trial to explore the potential association between adherence to DRRD and the risk of HNC.
Background: There is little prospective evidence exists about whether adherence to a diabetes risk reduction diet (DRRD) is related to a significant reduction in renal cancer risk. We sought to clarify whether adherence to DRRD was associated with a reduced risk of renal cancer in a US population.
Methods: A population-based cohort of 101,755 American adults was identified from the Prostate, Lung, Colorectal, and Ovarian Cancer Screening Trial.
Background: Sulfur microbial diet (SMD), related to the enrichment of sulfur-metabolizing gut bacteria, has been confirmed to be linked to an elevated risk of early-onset colorectal adenoma in young females. However, it remains unclear whether SMD is associated with the risk of colorectal adenoma in older people, who are at greater risk for colorectal cancer.
Methods: All data on participants in this study were retrieved from the intervention arm of the Prostate, Lung, Colorectal, and Ovarian (PLCO) cancer screening test.

Background: Glutathione S-transferase mu 1 () is one of the major glutathione conjugation enzymes. Its expression and activity have been suggested to correlate with the occurrence of colon cancer; however, the role of in tumor immunity remains unclear.
Methods: Relevant data downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), Clinical Proteomic Tumor Analysis Consortium (CPTAC), and Human Protein Atlas (HPA) was used to perform a multi-dimensional expression analysis of in colon adenocarcinoma (COAD).
Background: Fatty acid-binding protein 4 (FABP4) has been reported to be associated with tumor progress and poor prognosis in various cancers. However, the relationship between FABP4 expression and tumor immunity in colon adenocarcinoma (COAD) is still poorly understood.
Methods: FABP4 mRNA expression was analyzed using The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA)-COAD data.
Methylation is an important mechanism contributing to cancer pathology. Methylation of tumor suppressor genes and oncogenes has been closely associated with tumor occurrence and development. New insights regarding the potential role of the adenosine receptor-independent pathway in the epigenetic modulation of DNA methylation offer the possibility of new interventional strategies for cancer therapy.
