Cyclin E1/CDK2 activation defines a key vulnerability to WEE1 kinase inhibition in gynecological cancers.

Upregulation of Cyclin E1 and subsequent activation of CDK2 accelerates cell cycle progression from G1 to S phase and is a common oncogenic driver in gynecological malignancies. WEE1 kinase counteracts the effects of Cyclin E1/CDK2 activation by regulating multiple cell cycle checkpoints. Here we characterized the relationship between Cyclin E1/CDK2 activation and sensitivity to the selective WEE1 inhibitor azenosertib.

Epidemiological and genetic charateristics of Vibrio vulnificus from diverse sources in China during 2012-2023.

Vibrio vulnificus is a significant zoonotic pathogen that causes severe vibriosis in humans and fish. The lack of a national annual surveillance program in China has hindered understanding of its epidemiological characteristics and genetic diversity. This study characterized 150 V.

Identification of immune characteristics between different subtypes in kidney renal clear cell carcinoma based on lysosome-related genes to assist immunotherapy.

Previous studies have revealed the essential role of lysosomes in human diseases, including cancer. However, there is a lack of in-depth systematic research on its function in kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC). In this project, we collected the public dataset of KIRC and selected lysosomal genes tightly linked with survival.

Perfluorooctanoic acid and its alternatives disrupt the osteogenesis and osteoclastogenesis balance: Evidence from the effects on cell differentiation process.

In the present study, we investigated the effects of a representative of the per- and polyfluoroalkyl substance (PFAS) chemical group, namely perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), and its alternatives (perfluorobutanoic acid [PFBA] and the hexafluoropropylene oxide dimer acid [GenX]) on bone homeostasis, a process that mainly depends on osteoblast (OB) and osteoclast (OC) activities at the cellular level. C3H10T1/2 cells and bone marrow macrophages (BMMs) were respectively induced into OBs and OCs, and treated with PFOA, PFBA, and GenX at doses of 0.25, 2.

Decomposition and comparative analysis of urban-rural differences in eHealth literacy among nursing students: A multisite cross-sectional study.

Background: Investigating the urban-rural differences in eHealth literacy among Chinese nursing students is imperative for enhancing healthcare education and practice. This study aimed to investigate the factors that contribute to urban-rural differences in eHealth literacy among Chinese nursing students and measure their respective contributions.

Design: A multisite cross-sectional study.
