Rationale: Solitary fibrous tumors (SFTs) are spindle cell tumors that typically occur in the pleura and peritoneum, but very rarely in the stomach. To our best knowledge, there are only 10 cases reported in English literature. We reported a case of primary stomach SFT and summarized the characteristics of all previous cases, suggesting that pathologists and surgeons should include this disease in the differential diagnosis list of primary mesenchymal tumor of the stomach.

Finding biomarkers for early screening of gastric cancer and exploring new targets for gastric cancer treatment are urgent problems to be solved in the treatment of gastric cancer, with significant clinical outcomes for the survival rate of gastric cancer patients. The AAA+ family ATPase thyroid hormone receptor-interacting protein 13 (TRIP13) has been reported to play an essential role in developing various tumours.

Sugar serves as the primary energy source for mammals, with glucose metabolism facilitating energy acquisition in human cells. The proper functioning of intracellular glucose metabolism is essential for the maintenance of orderly and healthy physiological activities. Tumor cells, characterized by uncontrolled growth, exhibit dysregulated proliferation and apoptosis processes, leading to abnormal alterations in glucose metabolism.

However, the application or long-term stability of conventional hydrogels at extreme temperatures remains a challenge due to the presence of water. Antifreezing and antidrying ionic conductive organohydrogels were prepared using cellulose nanocrystals and gelatin as raw materials, and the hydrogels were prepared in a water/glycerol binary solvent by a one-pot method.

Herein, we found that expression of the tripartite motif containing 56 (TRIM56), a RING-finger domain containing E3 ubiquitin ligase, was markedly higher in glioma than in normal brain tissue, and was significantly correlated with malignant phenotypes and a poor prognosis. In vitro and in vivo experimental studies revealed that TRIM56 promoted the migration and invasion of glioma cells.

Rationale: Endometrioid adenofibroma is a benign epithelial neoplasm of the ovary, most of which are often unilateral. The symptoms of endometrioid adenofibroma are often nonspecific and misleading. Therefore, a full understanding of the characteristics, diagnosis, and treatment methods of this disease is of great importance.

The prepared hydrogels were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The mechanical properties, electrical conductivity, and sensing properties of the hydrogels were studied by means of a universal material testing machine and LCR digital bridge.

This is largely because of the lack of specific targets and understanding of the molecular mechanism for early diagnosis. Dishevelled (Dvl) dysregulation leads to malignant progression.

PVA-CNC hydrogels were prepared with different contents of CNC and Al ions to enhance the performance of ion-conductive hydrogels. The samples were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, universal testing machine, LCR digital bridge and scanning electron microscopy analyses.

Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)-associated systems have revolutionized traditional gene-editing tools and are a significant tool for ameliorating gene defects. Characterized by high target specificity, extraordinary efficiency, and cost-effectiveness, CRISPR/Cas systems have displayed tremendous potential for genetic manipulation in almost any organism and cell type. Despite their numerous advantages, however, CRISPR/Cas systems have some inherent limitations, such as off-target effects, unsatisfactory efficiency of delivery, and unwanted adverse effects, thereby resulting in a desire to explore approaches to address these issues.

Aflatoxin is a highly toxic substance dispersed in peanuts, which seriously harms the health of humans and animals. In this paper, we propose a new method for aflatoxin B1(AFB1) detection inspired by quantitative remote sensing. Firstly, we obtained the relative content of AFB1 at the sub-pixel level by subpixel decomposition (endmember extraction, nonnegative matrix decomposition).

Reverse prediction and molecular docking techniques were employed to evaluate the feasibility of reniformin A(RA) as an anti-tumor leading compound. Based on the reverse prediction, network pharmacology was used to construct a "disease-compound-target-pathway" network. Thirty-nine tumor-related targets of RA were predicted, which participated in the regulation of multiple cellular activities such as apoptosis, cell cycle, and tumor metastasis, and regulated estrogen signal transduction and inflammatory response.

Methods: We collected 78 cases of infantile leukemia and retrospectively analyzed their clinicopathological data.
Results: Infantile leukemia featured a ratio of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) to B-lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) of 1:2, with a better survival for AML than B-ALL (median survival 36 vs 24 months).
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress has considerable impact on cell growth, proliferation, metastasis, invasion, angiogenesis and chemoradiotherapy resistance in various cancers. However, the effect of ER stress on the outcomes of glioma patients remains unclear. In this study, we established an ER stress risk model based on The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) glioma data set to reflect immune characteristics and predict the prognosis of glioma patients.

Rationale: Pulmonary artery intimal sarcoma is a rare tumor with exceptionally high mortality and easily misdiagnosed as pulmonary thromboembolism pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE) due to the nonspecific clinical presentation and symptom. Misdiagnosis or untimely diagnosis makes the disease progress to an advanced stage and eventually leads to a poor prognosis.
Patient Concerns: A 37-year-old Chinese female presented with chest tightness and dyspnea for 3 months.
