Ferroptosis sensitization in glioma: exploring the regulatory mechanism of SOAT1 and its therapeutic implications.

Glioma, the most common primary malignant tumor of the central nervous system, lacks effective targeted therapies. This study investigates the role of SOAT1, a key gene involved in cholesterol esterification, in glioma prognosis and its association with ferroptosis. Although the impact of SOAT1 on glioma prognosis has been recognized, its precise mechanism remains unclear.

Siglec15 is a prognostic indicator and a potential tumor-related macrophage regulator that is involved in the suppressive immunomicroenvironment in gliomas.

Background: Siglec15 is rising as a promising immunotherapeutic target in bladder, breast, gastric, and pancreatic cancers. The aim of the present study is to explore the prognostic value and immunotherapeutic possibilities of Siglec15 in gliomas using bioinformatics and clinicopathological methods.

Methods: The bioinformatics approach was used to examine Siglec15 mRNA expression in gliomas based on TCGA, CGGA, and GEO datasets.

CILP, a Putative Gene Associated With Immune Infiltration in Breast Cancer Brain Metastases.

Breast cancer (BC) is the second leading cause of brain metastases (BM), with high morbidity and mortality. The aim of our study was to explore the effect of the cartilage intermediate layer protein (CILP) on breast cancer brain metastases (BCBM). Using a weighted gene coexpression network analysis (WGCNA) in GSE100534 and GSE125989 datasets, we found that the yellow module was closely related to the occurrence of BCBM, and CILP was a hub gene in the yellow module.
