Diagnostic and prognostic potential of the resident non-small cell lung cancer microbiome.

The data of a comprehensive comparative study of the taxonomic composition of the resident microbiome of tumors from 26 patients with non-small cell lung cancer are presented. Analysis of taxonomic diversity revealed 10 types, 280 genera and 788 species of microorganisms. The analysis of the relative content and prognostic significance was carried out for 62 dominant genera.

Clinical and prognostic significance of the soluble form of the VISTA immunity control point in patients with primary bone tumors.

The data of a comparative enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay of the content of the soluble form of the immunity checkpoint VISTA in the blood serum of 30 healthy donors (control group), 79 patients with primary malignant (osteosarcoma - 30, chondrosarcoma - 31, chordoma - 14) and 14 borderline (giant cell tumor) bone neoplasms are presented. In the general group of patients with malignant neoplasms of bones, the median sVISTA content in blood serum is statistically significant lower than in the control (p = 0.040).
