Exploring the impact of GSTM1 as a novel molecular determinant of survival in head and neck cancer patients of African descent.

J Exp Clin Cancer Res

July 2024

Department of Hematology and Medical Oncology, School of Medicine, Winship Cancer Institute, Emory University, Atlanta, GA, 30322, USA.

Background: Blacks/African American (BAA) patients diagnosed with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) have worse survival outcomes than White patients. However, the mechanisms underlying racial disparities in HNSCC have not been thoroughly characterized.

Methods: Data on gene expression, copy number variants (CNVs), gene mutations, and methylation were obtained from 6 head and neck cancer datasets.

Elevated HSPB1 Expression Is Associated with a Poor Prognosis in Glioblastoma Multiforme Patients.

J Neurol Surg A Cent Eur Neurosurg

January 2025

Department of Neurosurgery, Jiangxi Provincial People's Hospital, The First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang Medical College, Nanchang, Jiangxi, China.

Background:  Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is a highly aggressive form of brain cancer. This study investigated the clinical predictive value of heat shock protein β1 (HSPB1) in patients with GBM.

Methods:  A correlation was established between HSPB1 expression and GBM progression using data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) dataset, Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas dataset, Gene Expression Omnibus dataset, and Human Protein Atlas database.

Bladder cancer (BCa) stands as a significant malignancy within the genitourinary system. Notably, heat shock proteins (HSPs) exhibit elevated expression in cells subjected to environmental stresses and have been linked to the progression of many human malignancies. Among these, the functional implications and specific mechanism of HSPB8 in BCa have yet to be fully explored.

Dysregulated expression of FK506-binding protein like (FKBPL) has been demonstrated to play crucial roles in tumour development. However, the role of FKBPL in lung adenocarcinoma (ADC) remains unclear. Using immunohistochemical staining, we showed that FKBPL expression was significantly lower in lung ADC than the normal tissues ( < 0.

Heat shock proteins (HSPs) represent cellular chaperones that are classified into several families, including HSP27, HSP40, HSP60, HSP70, and HSP90. The role of HSPs in the cell includes the facilitation of protein folding and maintaining protein structure. Both processes play crucial roles during stress conditions in the cell such as heat shock, degradation, and hypoxia.
