The LMR-SSIGN-MAPS model predicts disease-free survival in patients with localized clear cell renal cell carcinoma.

Introduction: Prediction models are increasingly being used to predict outcomes after surgery, and such a model would be a precious tool for patients with clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) after surgery.

Aim: To develop a comprehensive model for predicting disease-free survival (DFS) in patients with localized ccRCC.

Material And Methods: In a retrospective analysis of 612 patients, least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) Cox regression analysis was performed to identify significant predictors, and then risk factors were used to construct a prognostic model.

Cuproptosis related gene PDHB is identified as a biomarker inversely associated with the progression of clear cell renal cell carcinoma.

Background: Cuproptosis is a newly discovered programmed cell death dependent on mitochondrial respiratory disorder induced by copper overload. Pyruvate dehydrogenase E1 subunit beta (PDHB) is one of the cuproptosis genesand is a nuclear-encoded pyruvate dehydrogenase, which catalyzes the conversion of pyruvate to acetyl coenzyme A. However, the mechanism of PDHB in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) remains unclear.

Cuproptosis enhances docetaxel chemosensitivity by inhibiting autophagy via the DLAT/mTOR pathway in prostate cancer.

Cuproptosis, a newly discovered programmed cell death induced by copper ions, is associated with the progression and drug resistance of various tumors. Docetaxel plays a vital role as a first-line chemotherapeutic agent for advanced prostate cancer; however, most patients end up with prostate cancer progression because of inherent or acquired resistance. Herein, we examined the role of cuproptosis in the chemotherapeutic resistance of prostate cancer to docetaxel.

DDX58 expression promotes inflammation and growth arrest in Sertoli cells by stabilizing p65 mRNA in patients with Sertoli cell-only syndrome.

Sertoli cell -only syndrome (SCOS) is a type of testicular pathological failure that causes male infertility and no effective treatment strategy, is available for this condition. Moreover, the molecular mechanism underlying its development remains unknown. We identified DExD/H-Box helicase 58 () as a key gene in SCOS based on four datasets of testicular tissue samples obtained from the Gene Expression Synthesis database.

TREM2 as an independent predictor of poor prognosis promotes the migration via the PI3K/AKT axis in prostate cancer.

Objective: Prostate adenocarcinoma (PRAD) is one of the most common cancers, with high morbidity and mortality. Triggering receptors expressed on myeloid cells 2 (TREM2) is upregulated in various malignancies, however its effect on PRAD remains unknown. This study aimed to investigate the prognostic value of TREM2 in PRAD.
