Immunotherapy with checkpoint inhibitors produced significant clinical responses in a subset of cancer patients who were resistant to prior therapies. However, Castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) is seriously lack of T cell infiltration, which greatly limits the clinical application of immunotherapy, but the mechanism is unclear. In the present study, in silico analyses and experimental data show that HnRNP L was significantly negatively correlated with CD4+ and CD8+ T cells infiltration in patients; besides, we found deficiency of HnRNP L recruites CD4+ and CD8+ T cells infiltration and impairs tumorigenesis.

Background: Advanced prostate cancer (PCa) often initially responds to androgen receptor signaling inhibitors (ARSI) but frequently develops resistance, driven by tumor heterogeneity and therapeutic pressure. Addressing the clinical challenge of identifying non-responsive patients and discovering new therapeutic targets is urgently needed.

Methods: We utilized single-sample gene set enrichment analysis (ssGSEA) to elucidate the influence of the GG-NER pathway on ARSI response in PCa.

Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by the emerged coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 is spreading globally. The origin of SARS-Cov-2 and its evolutionary relationship is still ambiguous. Several reports attempted to figure out this critical issue by genome-based phylogenetic analysis, yet limited progress was obtained, principally owing to the disability of these methods to reasonably integrate phylogenetic information from all genes of SARS-CoV-2.
