Vacuolar protein sorting 45 (VPS45) has recently been implicated in the development of ovarian cancer and non-small cell lung cancer. However, its role in the onset and progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains unclear. This study aims to elucidate the function of VPS45 in HCC.

Purpose: Solute carrier family 1 member 3(SLC1A3), a member of the glutamate transporter family, is implicated in the progression of gastric carcinoma and the renewal of thyroid carcinoma stem cells. The purpose of this work is to use experimental validation and bioinformatics analysis to look at the possible involvement of SLC1A3 in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

Materials And Methods: We examined the levels of SLC1A3 within HCC and its implications on immunological and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) features using the TCGA, ImmPort, and Molecular Signatures databases.

Objective: Pancreatic cancer has a poor prognosis due to its high malignancy and rapid progression. The limited immunogenicity of pancreatic cancer (PAAD) contributes to its low responsiveness to immunotherapy, yet its underlying mechanism remains poorly understood. As a cancer promoting gene, Twist participates in EMT in various tumors and promotes tumor progression.

Purpose: Cyclin-dependent kinase regulatory subunit 2 (CKS2) has an important function in regulating cancer progression and cell cycle. This research aims to ascertain how CKS2 plays its part through multi-omics analyses, to reveal its relationship with the immune microenvironment in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

Material And Methods: Multiple databases were used to determine the transcriptional data of CKS2, epigenetic changes, and effects thereof upon the prognosis of HCC patients.

Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Renhou Zhi"

  • Recent research by Renhou Zhi focuses on the interplay between cancer progression and the immune microenvironment, specifically in pancreatic cancer and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
  • One study highlights the crucial role of the gene Twist in pancreatic cancer, linking its expression to poor prognosis and regulatory mechanisms influencing the immune response and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT).
  • Another study investigates CKS2 in HCC, emphasizing its correlation with patient survival outcomes and its impact on the immune microenvironment through multi-omics analyses, thereby uncovering its potential as a therapeutic target.
