Background: The ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) is vital for protein quality control and its dysregulation is linked to diseases, including cancer. Targeting the UPS is becoming a promising approach in cancer therapy. However, the role of UPS modulation in thyroid carcinoma (THCA) remains to be fully elucidated.

Background: Bladder cancer (BLCA), which develops from the upper endometrial of the bladder, is the sixth most prevalent cancer across the globe. WDHD1 (WD repeat and HMG-box DNA binding protein 1 gene) directly affects signaling, the cell cycle, and the development of the cell skeleton. Uncertainty surrounds WDHD1's function in BLCA immunity and prognosis, though.

Background: Glioma, a highly invasive and deadly form of human neoplasm, presents a pressing need for the exploration of potential therapeutic targets. While the lysosomal protein transmembrane 4A (LATPM4A) has been identified as a risk factor in pancreatic cancer patients, its role in glioma remains unexplored.

Methods: The analysis of differentially expressed genes (DEG) was conducted from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) glioma dataset and the Genotype Tissue Expression (GTEx) dataset.

Background: Uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma (UCEC) is one of the most common gynecological malignancies and its incidence and mortality continue apace. Lysosome-associated membrane protein 3 (LAMP3) is the third member of the LAMP family and its overexpression has been described to be involved in the progression of breast, ovarian and cervical cancers, but there has been an absence of research focusing on its role in UCEC.

Methods: WGCNA, TIMER, LinkedOmics, GSEA, Cytoscape, Kaplan-Meier plotter, GDC, GeneMANIA, cBioPortal, PDB, RNAinter, miRNet were applied in this research.

An optimized millimeter-wave digital controlled oscillator (DCO) in a 40-nm CMOS process is presented in this work. The coarse-tuning modules and medium-tuning modules of the DCO utilize modified binary-weighted digitally controlled transmission lines (DCTLs) to achieve a better compromise among smaller chip size, higher resonant frequency, better tuning resolution and lower phase noise. The tuning precision and die size of the medium tuning bank are improved without changing the binary coding rules by replacing the lowest-weight bit of the DCTLs with switched capacitors.

Glioma is the most common primary intracranial tumor in the central nervous system, with a high degree of malignancy and poor prognosis, easy to recur, difficult to cure. The mutation of Retinitis Pigmentosa 2 (RP2) can cause retinitis pigmentosa, it is a prognostic factor of osteosarcoma, however, its role in glioma remains unclear. Based on the data from TCGA and GTEx, we identified RP2 as the most related gene for glioma by WGCNA, and used a series of bioinformatics analyses including LinkedOmics, GSCA, CTD, and so on, to explore the expression of RP2 in glioma and the biological functions it is involved in.

Purpose: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a prevalent tumor with high morbidity, and an unfavourable prognosis. FARSB is an aminoacyl tRNA synthase, and plays a key role in protein synthesis in cells. Furthermore, previous reports have indicated that FARSB is overexpressed in gastric tumor tissues and is associated with a poor prognosis and tumorigenesis.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common subtype of liver cancer, with a high morbidity and low survival rate. Rho GTPase activating protein 39 (ARHGAP39) is a crucial activating protein of Rho GTPases, a novel target in cancer therapy, and it was identified as a hub gene for gastric cancer. However, the expression and role of ARHGAP39 in hepatocellular carcinoma remain unclear.

Objective: To explore the efficiency, cost, and time for examination of one-stop-shop gadoxetic acid disodium (Gd-EOB-DTPA)-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in preoperative evaluation for parent donors by comparing with multidetector computer tomography combined with conventional MR cholangiopancreatography (MDCT-MRCP).

Materials And Methods: Forty parent donors were evaluated with MDCT-MRCP, and the other 40 sex-, age-, and weight-matched donors with Gd-EOB-DTPA-enhanced MRI. Anatomical variations and graft volume determined by pre- and intra-operative findings, costs and time for imaging were recorded.
