Article Synopsis
  • Habenaria is an important genus of orchids with medicinal and ornamental value, but their evolutionary relationships are still unclear despite recent studies.
  • Researchers sequenced and analyzed the chloroplast genomes of two Habenaria species from the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau, uncovering significant genetic similarities and identifying key polymorphic regions that could assist in understanding their phylogeny.
  • The study indicated that the two species are closely related, having diverged from others around 0.39 million years ago, and provided insights into the evolutionary adaptations of these plants.

Background: Kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC) is the major histological subtype of kidney tumor which covers approximately 80% of the cases. Although various therapies have been developed, the clinical outcome remains unsatisfactory. Metabolic dysregulation is a key feature of KIRC, which impacts progression and prognosis of the disease.

The role of transcription factor binding to IGHM enhancer 3 (TFE3) in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is not well understood. Nuclear respiratory factor 1 (NRF-1) may be the positive upstream regulatory gene of TFE3. The aim of the present study was to determine whether NRF-1 could directly regulate the expression of TFE3 and regulate tumorigenesis and progression of RCC through TFE3.

This study aimed to compare the clinicopathologic features and prognosis in patients with Xp11 translocation renal cell carcinomas (RCCs). In total, 8083 RCCs were screened at five centres from January 2007 to December 2018, including 8001 adults (≥18 years) and 82 children (<18 years). Finally, 73 adults and 17 children were identified as Xp11 translocation RCCs, accounting for 1.

Background: Xp11.2 translocation renal cell carcinoma (tRCC) is mainly caused by translocation of the TFE3 gene located on chromosome Xp11.2 and is characterized by overexpression of the TFE3 fusion gene.

The Fuhrman and World Health Organization/International Society of Urological Pathology (WHO/ISUP) grading systems are widely used to predict survival for patients with conventional renal cell carcinoma. To determine the validity of nuclear grading systems (both the Fuhrman and the WHO/ISUP) and the individual components of the Fuhrman grading system in predicting the prognosis of Xp11.2 translocation renal cell carcinoma (Xp11.
