The present study aims to summarize the current biomarker landscape in gynecological cancers (GCs) and incorporate bioinformatics analysis to highlight specific biological processes. The literature was retrieved from PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Scopus, Ovid Medline, and Cochrane Library. The final search was conducted on December 7, 2022.

Background: Periodic fever, aphthous stomatitis, pharyngitis, and adenitis (PFAPA) syndrome is a recurrent fever syndrome. The exact etiopathogenesis of PFAPA syndrome remains unknown. Biological fluids or tissues may provide disease-specific biomarkers that may help clinicians to find new pathogenic pathways.

The alpha-synuclein (αSyn) seeding amplification assay (SAA) that allows the generation of disease-specific in vitro seeded fibrils (SAA fibrils) is used as a research tool to study the connection between the structure of αSyn fibrils, cellular seeding/spreading, and the clinicopathological manifestations of different synucleinopathies. However, structural differences between human brain-derived and SAA αSyn fibrils have been recently highlighted. Here, we characterize the biophysical properties of the human brain-derived αSyn fibrils from the brains of patients with Parkinson's disease with and without dementia (PD, PDD), dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), multiple system atrophy (MSA), and compare them to the 'model' SAA fibrils.

The complex mechanism of synaptic vesicle fusion with the plasma membrane for neurotransmitter release is initiated by the formation of the SNARE complex at the presynaptic terminal of the neuron. The SNARE complex is composed of four helices contributed by three proteins: one from syntaxin (localized at the plasma membrane), one from synaptobrevin (localized at the synaptic vesicle), and two from the intrinsically disordered and aggregation-prone synaptosomal-associated 25 kDa protein (SNAP-25), which is localized to the plasma membrane by virtue of palmitoylation of cysteine residues. The fusion process is tightly regulated and requires the constitutively expressed Hsp70 chaperone (Hsc70) and its J-protein co-chaperone CSPα.
