T cells are the key to killing tumor cells. However, the exact mechanism of their role in cancer is not fully understood. Therefore, a comprehensive understanding of the role of T-cell proliferation regulatory genes in tumors is needed.

However, the roles of the downstream GLI family (GLI1, GLI2, and GLI3) in tumorigenesis remain elusive. This study aimed to unravel the genetic alterations of GLI1/2/3 in cancer and their association with the immune microenvironment and related signaling pathways.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFLymphotoxin beta receptor (LTBR) is a positive T cell proliferation regulator gene. It is closely associated with the tumor immune microenvironment. However, its role in cancer and immunotherapy is unclear.

The kinase contains a regulatory Src homology 3 (SH3) domain that can specifically recognize proline-rich peptide segments on its partner protein surface. In this study, we systematically investigated the -substitution effect on the binding of an empirically designed proline-rich peptide p9 to nABL SH3 domain by integrating dynamics simulations, energetics calculations and fluorescence affinity assays.

The present study investigated the molecular mechanisms of hyperthyroidism-induced AF. A rabbit susceptibility model of hyperthyroidism-induced AF was constructed, and metoprolol treatment was administered.

However, has not been reported in other cancers, and the exact mechanism of action is currently unknown. First, the expression profile of was analyzed using a combination of the University of California Santa Cruz (UCSC) database, Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia (CCLE) database, and Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) database.
