Article Synopsis
  • A study analyzed the impact of molecular classification on the management of endometrial cancer patients by examining data from 1,357 cases diagnosed in 2016 across Canada, revealing significant molecular subtype diversity.
  • Only a small percentage of patients underwent necessary immunohistochemistry (IHC) testing for MMR and p53 proteins, leading to missed opportunities for early diagnosis and treatment options.
  • The findings highlight the need for standardized biomarker reporting and routine integration of molecular subtyping in pathology practice to improve patient outcomes.

Helper T effector cytokines implicated in asthma modulate the contractility of human airway smooth muscle (HASM) cells. We have reported recently that a profibrotic cytokine, transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1, induces HASM cell shortening and airway hyperresponsiveness. Here, we assessed whether TGF-β1 affects the ability of HASM cells to relax in response to β-agonists, a mainstay treatment for airway hyperresponsiveness in asthma.
