Background: Neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) is associated with host response, tumorigenesis, and immune dysfunction. However, the link between NET and the tumor microenvironment (TME) of gastric cancer (GC) remains unclear. Our study aims to characterize the expression patterns of NET-related genes and their relationships with clinicopathological characteristics, prognosis, TME features, and immunotherapy efficacy in GC cohorts.

Article Synopsis
  • The dihydrate phosphoric acid process is commonly used but results in phosphogypsum (PG) with high impurities, particularly phosphorus and fluorine, which hinder its reuse.
  • This study utilized various analytical methods to investigate the occurrence and distribution of these impurities in PG from wet-process phosphoric acid production.
  • Key findings revealed that phosphorus is mostly found in calcium silicate and hematite, while fluorine is linked to gypsum and potassium silicate, with strong binding energies identified in these mineral associations.

The conformational landscapes of two highly flexible monosaccharide derivatives, namely phenyl β-D-glucopyranoside (ph-β-glu) and 4-(hydroxymethyl)phenyl β-D-glucopyranoside, also commonly known as gastrodin, were explored using a combined experimental and theoretical approach. For the infrared, Raman, and the associated vibrational optical activity (VOA), i.e.

Background: Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the high-risk cancers that lacks effective methods for prognosis prediction. Therefore, we searched for immune cells related to the prognosis of GC and studied the role of related genes in GC prognosis.

Methods: In this study, we collected the mRNA data of GC from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database and studied the immune cells that were closely related to the prognosis of GC.

The aim of the present study was to assess the association between the epithelial cadherin (CDH1) -160C/A polymorphism and colorectal cancer (CRC) using a meta-analysis. A literature search of PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science databases was performed for relevant studies. Statistical analyses were carried out using Stata 12.

The ERCC1 enzyme in the nucleotide excision repair (NER) pathway plays a vital role in DNA repair. Numerous epidemiological studies have evaluated the association between ERCC1 polymorphisms and the risk of colorectal cancer (CRC), with conflicting results. To evaluate the potential associations, we conducted a meta-analysis.
