Immunotherapy has shown significant promise in the clinical management of prostate cancer (PCa), and prostaglandin E receptor 4 (EP4) is a key governing factor in PCa progression. However, the molecular mechanisms by which EP4 influences immunotherapy in PCa have yet to be elucidated. This investigation was designed to unravel the specific mechanisms through which EP4 affects the killing ability of CD8+ T cells against PCa cells.

Cervical cancer is one of the most common cancers worldwide. Many studies have reported the involvement of various miRNAs in cervical cancer progression. Our study was centered at investigating how let-7c-5p affected cervical cancer migration and invasion by regulating cell adhesion and its molecular mechanism.

Objective: This study aimed to examine the relationship between expression of mammal target of rapamycin (mTOR) and phosphorylation of mTOR (p-mTOR) protein in the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathways in gastrointestinal stromal tumors and relatiuonships with clinical factors.

Methods: Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression of the associated proteins mTOR, p-mTOR, and phosphorylation of the tumor suppressor genes PTEN, P27, VEGF, and EGFR in 40 cases of gastrointestinal stromal tumors, with division into a very low and low risk group as well as a moderate and high risk group.

Results: The positive rate of mTOR and p-mTOR was significantly increased in the moderate and high risk group compared with the very low and low risk group.

The objective of this study was to investigate the possible association between the expression of transforming growth factor beta-1 (TGF-β1) and breast cancer type2 susceptibility protein (BRCA2) with clinical factors in breast cancer. TGF-β1, BRCA2, human epidermal growth factor receptor2 (HER2), estrogen receptor, and progesterone receptor protein levels were measured in 67 samples from breast cancer patients by immunohistochemistry. The expression of these proteins was correlated with various clinical factors including age, pathohistological grade and status of axillary lymph node implication.
