A Pan-Cancer Analysis Reveals CLEC5A as a Biomarker for Cancer Immunity and Prognosis.

Background: CLEC5A is a member of the C-type lectin superfamily. It can activate macrophages and lead to a series of immune-inflammation reactions. Previous studies reveal the role of CLEC5A in infection and inflammation diseases.

Application of 3-Dimensional Computerized Tomography Angiography for Defining Cavernous Sinus Aneurysms and Intradural Aneurysms Involving the Internal Carotid Artery Around the Anterior Clinoid Process.

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the application of 3-dimensional computed tomography angiography (3D-CTA) for defining cavernous sinus aneurysms and intradural aneurysms involving the internal carotid artery around the anterior clinoid process.

Methods: Results from 42 patients with an aneurysm of the internal carotid artery around the anterior clinoid process who underwent 3D-CTA were reviewed and compared with those of observed clinical operations.

Results: Among the 42 patients, there was a total of 45 aneurysms of the internal carotid artery around the anterior clinoid process.

The antitumor activity of recombinant antitumor antiviral protein and the associated molecular mechanism in pancreatic tumor cells.

Background: Pancreatic cancer has poor prognosis and high mortality. Currently, the therapy of pancreatic cancer remains a challenge. In this study, we compared the antitumor activity of the recombinant antitumor antiviral protein (RAAP), an improved interferon, with gemcitabine, a classic chemotherapy agent used for pancreatic cancer treatment.
