Growth factors, growth factor receptors and oncogenes have been extensively studied in human tumors for some years. The purpose of this paper is to review the clinical results obtained in human cancers and their predisposing conditions or high risk groups as well as their relation with clinical, pathological characteristics and their prognosis.

Multiple gene-deletion vaccinia virus Tiantan strain against mpox.

Virol J

January 2025

Changchun Veterinary Research Institute, Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, Changchun, 130122, People's Republic of China.

Monkeypox virus (MPXV) is an important zoonotic pathogenic virus, which poses serious threats to public health. MPXV infection can be prevented by immunization against the variola virus. Because of the safety risks and side effects of vaccination with live vaccinia virus (VACV) strain Tian Tan (VTT), we constructed two gene-deleted VTT recombinants (TTVAC7 and TTVC5).

Tongue squamous cell carcinoma (TSCC) is a common malignant oral cancer characterized by substantial invasion, a high rate of lymph node and distant metastasis, and a high recurrence rate. This study aims to provide new ideas for the diagnosis and treatment of TSCC patients by exploring the related mechanisms that affect the migration and invasion of TSCC and inhibit the migration and spread of cancer cells. The results indicated the rate of high expression of IL-17 in cancer tissues was greater than that in tongue tissues, and the expression of IL-17 was related to the TNM stage.

Differentiation of stem cells into chondrocytes and their potential clinical application in cartilage regeneration.

Histochem Cell Biol

January 2025

Department of Forensic Medicine and Forensic Toxicology, Medical University of Silesia, 18 Medyków Street, 40-752, Katowice, Poland.

Cartilage diseases and injuries are considered difficult to treat owing to the low regenerative capacity of this tissue. Using stem cells (SCs) is one of the potential methods of treating cartilage defects and creating functional cartilage models for transplants. Their ability to proliferate and to generate functional chondrocytes, a natural tissue environment, and extracellular cartilage matrix, makes SCs a new opportunity for patients with articular injuries or incurable diseases, such as osteoarthritis (OA).
