A 82-year-old man was referred to our hospital with a chief complaint of macrohematuria and pollakisuria. Cystoscopy showed an abnormal mucosa on the right wall. We suspected carcinoma in situ but two months after cystoscopy showed a non-papillary and sessile tumor with calcification. We performed transurethral resection of the bladder tumor, muscle layer and adipose tissue. Histopathological findings revealed small cell carcinoma of the bladder infiltrating the externaladipose tissue. As postoperative adjuvant therapy, chemotherapy (cisplatin total 150 mg) was performed with 40 Gy of extra beam radiotherapy to the bladder. After chemotherapy and radiotherapy,urinary cytology was negative and cystoscopy showed the scar. Follow up magnetic resonance imaging revealed disappearance of the bladder tumor.

Reduction of glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1), even deletion, may results in cartilage fibrosis and osteoarthritis. This study aims to investigate the SUMOylation of GLUT1 in osteoarthritis through small ubiquitin-like modifier 1(SUMO1), and explore the role of SUMOylated GLUT1 in glycometabolism, proliferation and apoptosis in chondrocytes. Human chondrocytes were incubated with 10 ng/mL of IL-1β to mimic osteoarthritis in vitro.

Background: The use of local consolidative therapy (LCT) in patients with oligometastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is rapidly evolving, with a preponderance of data supporting the benefits of such therapeutic approaches incorporating pulmonary resection for appropriately selected candidates. However, practices vary widely institutionally and regionally, and evidence-based guidelines are lacking.

Methods: The Society of Thoracic Surgeons assembled a panel of thoracic surgical oncologists to evaluate and synthesize the available evidence regarding the role of pulmonary resection as LCT.

Protein synthesis (translation) consumes a substantial proportion of cellular resources, prompting specialized mechanisms to reduce translation under adverse conditions. Ribosome inactivation often involves ribosome-interacting proteins. In both bacteria and eukaryotes, various ribosome-interacting proteins facilitate ribosome dimerization or hibernation, and/or prevent ribosomal subunits from associating, enabling the organisms to adapt to stress.

Bacterial genomes contain a plethora of secondary replicons of divergent size. Circular replicons must carry a system for resolving dimeric forms, resulting from recombination between sister copies. These systems use site-specific recombinases.
