Immunohistochemical study of expression of nm 23 and c-erbB-2 protein markers in primary tumor and metastases of colorectal adenocarcinoma showed that the incidence and expression of both protein markers in primary tumor tissue tended to increase after the appearance of liver metastases. Peculiarities of protein expression in tumor metastases in lymph nodes and liver and the possibility of using these markers as additional prognostic criteria in colorectal cancer are discussed.

Introduction: Although primary tumors of the brachial plexus (BP) are rare, schwannomas are the most frequently encountered type. This study evaluated the clinicopathological presentation, surgical outcomes, and prognosis of patients with BP schwannomas.
Methods: A systematic review was conducted using PubMed/MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane on the 25th of March 2024.

Osteosarcoma (OS) is the most common primary malignant bone tumor. Recent evidence suggests that the novel long noncoding RNA DHRS4 antisense RNA 1 (DHRS4-AS1) serves an important role in cancer progression and metastasis. However, its function and molecular mechanism in OS remain largely unknown.

Programmed cell death protein-1 (PD-1) inhibitors plus chemotherapy have been the standard of care in the first-line treatment of advanced gastric or gastroesophageal junction (G/GEJ) adenocarcinoma; however, the survival benefits are modest in patients with low programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression. Here we investigated the efficacy and safety of cadonilimab (PD-1/cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA-4) bispecific antibody) plus chemotherapy as first-line treatment in G/GEJ adenocarcinoma. The prespecified interim analysis is reported here.

Gammaherpesviruses are DNA tumor viruses that establish lifelong latent infections in lymphocytes. For viruses such as Epstein-Barr virus and murine gammaherpesvirus 68, this is accomplished through a viral gene-expression program that promotes cellular proliferation and differentiation, especially of germinal center B cells. Intrinsic host mechanisms that control virus-driven cellular expansion are incompletely defined.

Purpose: While glioblastoma is the most common malignant brain tumor in adults, extracerebral manifestations are very rare in this highly aggressive disease with poor prognosis.
Methods: We conducted a systematic literature review in the PubMed database and complemented the data by inclusion of a case treated in our clinic. In this context, we report on a 60-year-old woman with a right frontal glioblastoma, IDH wildtype, MGMT methylated.
