METTL3 as a novel diagnosis and treatment biomarker and its association with glycolysis, cuproptosis and ceRNA in oesophageal carcinoma.

METTL3 has been shown to be involved in regulating a variety of biological processes. However, the relationship between METTL3 expression and glycolysis, cuproptosis-related genes and the ceRNA network in oesophageal carcinoma (ESCA) remains unclear. ESCA expression profiles from databases were obtained, and target genes were identified using differential analysis and visualization.

SLC17A9 as a prognostic biomarker correlated with immune infiltrates in human non-small cell lung cancer.

The vesicular nucleotide transporter (SLC17A9) has been overexpressed in various cancers. Nonetheless, little is known about its influence on non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), including human lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) and lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC). Integrative bioinformatics analysis was performed to investigate the prognostic significance and underlying mechanisms of SLC17A9 in patients with NSCLC.

Metabolic assessment of cerebral palsy with normal clinical MRI using F-FDG PET imaging: A preliminary report.

To explore the cerebral metabolic patterns of cerebral palsy (CP) patients without structural abnormalities by brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans, we evaluated F-fluoro-deoxyglucose positron emission tomography (F-FDG PET) imaging features in patients. Thirty-one children with CP [Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS) levels II-V] showing no structural abnormalities by MRI were enrolled in this study. Regional glucose metabolic activity values were calculated using Scenium software and compared between the right and left cerebral hemispheres.

eIF6 is potential diagnostic and prognostic biomarker that associated with F-FDG PET/CT features and immune signatures in esophageal carcinoma.

Background: Although eukaryotic initiation factor 6 (eIF6) is a novel therapeutic target, data on its importance in the development of esophageal carcinoma (ESCA) remains limited. This study evaluated the correlation between eIF6 expression and metabolic analysis using fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (F-FDG) -Positron emission tomography (PET) and immune gene signatures in ESCA.

Methods: This study employed The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) to analyze the expression and prognostic value of eIF6, as well as its relationship with the immune gene signatures in ESCA patients.

Situs Inversus Totalis on F-FDG PET/CT: A Case Report and a Literature Review.

A 62-year-old female patient with pathologically confirmed left lung small cell neuroendocrine carcinoma. The patient was referred to our positron emission tomography (PET)/CT center to look for possible metastatic diseases. After fasting for 8 h, the fasting blood glucose level of the patient was 7.

Comprehensive Analysis of GLUT1 Immune Infiltrates and ceRNA Network in Human Esophageal Carcinoma.

Background: Glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1) is encoded by the solute carrier family 2A1 (SLC2A1) gene and is one of the glucose transporters with the greatest affinity for glucose. Abnormal expression of GLUT1 is associated with a variety of cancers. However, the biological role of GLUT1 in esophageal carcinoma (ESCA) remains to be determined.
