Article Synopsis
- - This study examines the expression levels of Yes-associated protein (YAP1) and miR-340-5p in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) tissues, finding that both markers are significantly lower in metastatic cases compared to non-metastatic cases.
- - Analysis of NPC samples showed that YAP1 and miR-340-5p expression decreases with cancer progression, especially in advanced stages, and that these markers may be linked through the Hippo signaling pathway.
- - The findings suggest that YAP1 and miR-340-5p could function as tumor suppressors in NPC, highlighting their potential importance in cancer research and therapy development.
Background: The occurrence of castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) varies in patients with advanced prostate cancer (PCa) undergoing androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). The rate of occurrence of CRPC may be related to the presence of prostate cancer stem cells (CSC). Thus, this study aims to evaluate the presence of CSC markers (CD44 and CD133) in histopathology tissue at the time of diagnosis and their correlation with the occurrence of CRPC in patients with advanced PCa within 2 years of ADT.

In early stage of the tumor, the symptoms are similar to other genitourinary problems, such as dysuria, urinary retention, lower abdominal pain and prostate enlargement. This condition often leads to misdiagnosis and treatment delay because of the tumor's rapid growth.
