Carcinoma of unknown primary site represents a heterogeneous group of malignancies that present with lymph node or distant metastases, for which diagnostic work-up fails to identify the site of origin. Their incidence relative to total head and neck cancers ranges from as low as 1.7 to 2.

Design: Retrospective, noncomparative cohort study.
Investigations on heat stress induced transcriptomic changes is critical to characterization of candidate genes for thermal adaptability in livestock. Continues spells of high ambient temperature due to climate change has amplified reproductive dysfunctions, necessitating immediate attention. The present study aimed to explore the transcriptomic signature of heat stressed granulosa cells (GCs) and signalling pathways regulating their adaptability to thermal challenge.

The Myc oncogene is a paradigm of an exquisitely regulated oncogene and a driver of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Here we use a CRISPR interference screen in PDAC cells to identify activators of selective MYC translation.
