Background: Predictive, preventive, and personalized medicine (PPPM/3PM) is a strategy aimed at improving the prognosis of cancer, and programmed cell death (PCD) is increasingly recognized as a potential target in cancer therapy and prognosis. However, a PCD-based predictive model for serous ovarian carcinoma (SOC) is lacking. In the present study, we aimed to establish a cell death index (CDI)-based model using PCD-related genes.

The abundance and biological contribution of natural killer (NK) cells in cancer are controversial. Here, we aim to uncover clinical relevance and cellular roles of NK cells in colon cancer liver metastasis (CCLM). Here, we integrated single-cell RNA-sequencing, spatial transcriptomics (ST), and bulk RNA-sequencing datasets to investigate NK cells' biological properties and functions in the microenvironment of primary and liver metastatic tumors.

Article Synopsis
  • Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a complex autoimmune disease that's hard to diagnose early due to vague symptoms, and current treatments mainly focus on symptom relief rather than a cure.* -
  • The study investigates the presence of 5-Hydroxymethylome (5hmC) alterations in plasma cell-free DNA (cfDNA) of SLE patients compared to healthy controls, using advanced profiling techniques to identify specific genomic changes associated with the disease.* -
  • Results showed distinct patterns of 5hmC modifications in SLE patients, identifying 151 genes linked to the disease and highlighting the involvement of CTCF in regulating these modifications, which could lead to new diagnostic markers for SLE.*

For a comprehensive insight into the potential mechanism of the removal of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) removal induced by initial substrates during composting, we tracked the dynamics of physicochemical properties, bacterial community composition, fungal community composition, the relative abundance of ARGs and mobile genetic genes (MGEs) during reed straw and cow manure composting with different carbon to nitrogen ratio. The results showed that the successive bacterial communities were mainly characterized by the dynamic balance between Firmicutes and Actinobacteria, while the fungal communities were composed of Ascomycota. During composting, the interactions between bacteria and fungi were mainly negative.

Isocitrate dehydrogenase 1/2 (/2 mutations are frequently detected in glioma. The aim of the present study was to investigate the association between /2 mutations and glioma grades. The current study was retrospective and used samples from 206 patients with brain glioma and 9 patients with spinal cord glioma as a control.

The present study aimed to elucidate key molecular mechanisms in the progression of diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG). The gene expression profile GSE50021, which consisted of 35 pediatric DIPG samples and 10 normal brain samples, was downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus database. The differentially-expressed genes (DEGs) in the pediatric DIPG samples were identified.

Objective: To investigate the relationship between the mutation and abnormal expression of p16 gene in peripheral lung carcinoma and its CT manifestations.

Methods: Immunohistochemistry and PCR-SSCP were used to detect P16 protein expression and p16 gene mutation of 52 cases of peripheral lung cancer. All patients were scanned with spiral CT before the operation and proved by pathology.
