The impact of lymph node dissection on stage I ovarian endometrioid carcinoma: A US-China Comparative Analysis.

This study investigated the prognostic impact of lymph node dissection (LND) in patients with stage I ovarian endometrioid carcinoma (OEC) and aimed to identify the optimal LND range for improved survival. By analyzing data from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database conducted in USA and NUWA database in China, we found that patients who underwent LND in the SEER cohort exhibited significantly improved long-term survival rates compared to those who did not undergo LND, while the difference was not statistically significant in the NUWA cohort. Cox regression and restricted cubic spline analyses indicated an inverted U-shaped association between the number of LNDs and hazard ratios, identifying 29-34 lymph nodes as the optimal range.

Hypoxia-induced ZEB1 promotes cervical cancer immune evasion by strengthening the CD47-SIRPα axis.

Background: The dynamic interaction between cancer cells and tumour-associated macrophages (TAMs) in the hypoxic tumour microenvironment (TME) is an active barrier to the effector arm of the antitumour immune response. Cancer-secreted exosomes are emerging mediators of this cancer-stromal cross-talk in the TME; however, the mechanisms underlying this interaction remain unclear.

Methods: Exosomes were isolated with ExoQuick exosome precipitation solution.

Superficial vaginal myofibroblastoma with mushroom-like appearance: A case report with colposcopic findings and literature review.

Superficial myofibroblastoma (SMF) of the lower female genital tract is a relatively rare benign mesenchymal tumor. The diagnosis is usually challenging as it shares several similar clinicopathological features with other tumors. Herein, we present a case of a 71-year-old Chinese female patient with postmenopausal vaginal bleeding.

FTO Inhibits Epithelial Ovarian Cancer Progression by Destabilising SNAI1 mRNA through IGF2BP2.

Fat mass and obesity-associated protein (FTO) regulates critical pathways in various diseases, including malignant tumours. However, the functional link between FTO and its target genes in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) development remains to be elucidated. In this study, the biological functions of FTO were verified in vitro and in vivo.

relieves weaning diarrhea improving gut microbiota and redox homeostasis using a piglet model.

Weaning stress commonly damages the intestinal barrier of mammals, resulting in gut microbiota dysbiosis, intestinal illness, and even severe diarrhea. Probiotics are used as a nutritional strategy to promote the health of humans and animals and the gut microbiota balance. Here was applied as a probiotic supplement to a weaned piglet model to investigate its impacts on growth performance, antioxidant capacity, inflammation response, and intestinal health.

PHGDH Inhibitor CBR-5884 Inhibits Epithelial Ovarian Cancer Progression via ROS/Wnt/-Catenin Pathway and Plays a Synergistic Role with PARP Inhibitor Olaparib.

PHGDH attaches importance to serine biosynthesis in cancer cells and maintaining mitochondrial redox homeostasis. However, the role of PHGDH inhibitor CBR-5884 in cell ROS level and its downstream pathways has not been explored in epithelial ovarian cancer. Thus, we investigated the function and possible mechanism of PHGDH inhibitor CBR-5884 on epithelial ovarian cancer in vitro and in vivo.

Identification and Development of Subtypes With Poor Prognosis in Pan-Gynecological Cancer Based on Gene Expression in the Glycolysis-Cholesterol Synthesis Axis.

Metabolic reprogramming is an important biomarker of cancer. Metabolic adaptation driven by oncogenes allows tumor cells to survive and grow in a complex tumor microenvironment. The heterogeneity of tumor metabolism is related to survival time, somatic cell-driven gene mutations, and tumor subtypes.

Identification of prognostic and immune-related gene signatures in the tumor microenvironment of endometrial cancer.

Uterine corpus endometrial cancer (UCEC) is one of the most prevalent female malignancies in clinical practice. Due to the lack of effective biomarkers and personalized treatments, the prognosis of advanced-stage EC remains unfavorable. Modulation of the immune microenvironment is closely related to the onset and development of endometrial cancer.

Tryptophan (Trp) modulates gut homeostasis via aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR).

The intestinal homeostasis is an orchestrated dynamic equilibrium state composed of the coexistence and interactions among the nutrients, microbial flora, and immune system. The intestinal balance disorder can trigger a series of diseases, such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Many of tryptophan (Trp) metabolites, such as kynurenine and indole, generated under a series of endogenous enzymes or microbial metabolism, have been reported enable to bind and activate the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR), this series of process is termed the Trp-AhR pathway.
