Background: Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is the most prevalent malignancy within the endocrine system, exhibiting a rapid growth rate in recent years. Serpin peptidase inhibitor clade A member 1 (SERPINA1) has been previously proposed as a diagnostic biomarker; however, it's potential molecular relevance and biological function in PTC remains largely unexplored.

Methods: Our study utilized multi-omics bioinformatic data from several public databases, supplemented with transcriptional profiles using our local cohort comprising 79 paired PTC samples.

Background: Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is one of the most widespread malignant tumors of the endocrine system, with a high incidence. Budding uninhibited by benzimidazoles 1 (BUB1), one of the spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC) genes, is a multitask protein kinase required for eukaryotic chromosome segregation. Although BUB1 has been explored in several types of cancer, its biological role and molecular mechanisms in PTC remain unclear.

Breast cancer (BC) is one of the most common malignancies among women worldwide. It is necessary to search for improvement in diagnosis and treatment methods to improve the prognosis. Protein kinase, membrane associated tyrosine/threonine 1 (PKMYT1), a member of the Wee family of protein kinases, has been studied in some tumors except BC.

Background: Neuroblastoma is the most common malignant extracranial tumor for children. Molecular mechanisms underpinning the pathogenesis of this disease are yet to be fully clarified. This study aimed to identify a novel oncogene that could be used as a biomarker informing the prognosis of neuroblastoma, and to predict its biological functions, using bioinformatics and molecular biology tools.

Papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) is the most common malignancy of the endocrine system, with an increase in incidence frequency. Major vault protein () is the main structural protein of the vault complex that has already been investigated in specific cancers. Yet the underlying biological functions and molecular mechanisms of in PTC still remain considerably uncharacterized.

Recently some evidence has demonstrated the significance of PSMB8 in various malignancies. Nevertheless, PSMB8 (proteasome subunit beta 8), more familiar in the field of immunology contributing to the process of antigen presentation, is indeterminate in the role as a survival predictor of human pan-cancer. Besides, how PSMB8 interacts with immune cell infiltration in the tumor microenvironment requires further research.

Article Synopsis
  • Genomic instability (GI) is a key feature of cancer, and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) show potential as cancer biomarkers, particularly in papillary thyroid cancer (PTC), although their clinical relevance is not fully understood.!* -
  • A study analyzed lncRNA expression and mutation profiles in PTC to identify GI-related lncRNAs (GIlncs), resulting in a computational model of four specific lncRNAs which were linked to poor patient prognosis and validated through various datasets.!* -
  • The research found that these lncRNAs are associated with the presence of driver mutations and clinical features, and their expression impacts PTC cell behavior, suggesting their potential as predictors for disease progression and

L Antigen Family Member 3 (LAGE3) is an important RNA modification-related protein. Whereas few studies have interrogated the LAGE3 protein, there is limited data on its role in tumors. Here, we analyzed and profiled the LAGE3 protein in skin cutaneous melanoma (CM) using TCGA, GTEx, or GEO databases.

B and T lymphocyte attenuator (BTLA) is a newly identified immune checkpoint molecular belonging to the CD28 immunoglobulin superfamily. However, the expression and clinical value of BTLA in skin cutaneous melanoma (SKCM) has not been widely characterized. We found that BTLA levels were upregulated in metastatic melanoma compared to normal skin tissues and primary melanoma.

The role of L Antigen Family Member 3 (LAGE3) in breast cancer (BC) has not been sufficiently studied. In this study, we explored the clinical value and biological functions of LAGE3 in BC. Comprehensive analysis of LAGE3 was carried out on The Cancer Genome Atlas, Molecular Taxonomy of Breast Cancer International Consortium and Gene Expression Omnibus datasets.

Papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) is the most common malignant disease in endocrine systems. T-box transcription factor 22 (TBX22) is a phylogenetically conserved family member that has not been widely characterized in cancers. In this study, we explored the potential clinical significance and biological functions of in PTC.

Background: Papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) is heterogeneous cancer with many different immune cells involved in its pathogenesis. L Antigen Family Member 3 (LAGE3) is an ESO/LAGE gene family member that has not been extensively studied in PTC.

Methods: Comprehensive bioinformatics analyses of LAGE3 were based on The Cancer Genome Atlas, Gene Expression Omnibus, and Genomics of Drug Sensitivity in Cancer (GDSC) databases.

Metastatic subcutaneous implantation of the follicular variant of papillary thyroid cancer is very rare. We present a 62-year-old woman with a history of follicular variant of papillary thyroid cancer, who developed multiple asymptomatic subcutaneous nodules, after 5 years of initial thyroidectomy. Eventually, the subcutaneous nodules were diagnosed as tumor recurrence and completely excised.

Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the primary cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Identification of new CRC biomarkers is imperative to improve the prognosis and development of therapies against the disease. LAGE3 (L Antigen Family Member 3) functions as a tRNA modifier, although its potential role in CRC has not been fully elucidated.
