The UCSC Cancer Genomics Browser (https://genome-cancer.ucsc.edu) offers interactive visualization and exploration of TCGA genomic, phenotypic, and clinical data, as produced by the Cancer Genome Atlas Research Network. Researchers can explore the impact of genomic alterations on phenotypes by visualizing gene and protein expression, copy number, DNA methylation, somatic mutation and pathway inference data alongside clinical features, Pan-Cancer subtype classifications and genomic biomarkers. Integrated Kaplan-Meier survival analysis helps investigators to assess survival stratification by any of the information.

ZBP1-driven cell death in severe influenza.

Trends Microbiol

January 2025

Center for Immunology, Fox Chase Cancer Center, Philadelphia, PA, USA. Electronic address:

Influenza A virus (IAV) infections can cause life-threatening illness in humans. The severity of disease is directly linked to virus replication in the alveoli of the lower respiratory tract. In particular, the lytic death of infected alveolar epithelial cells (AECs) is a major driver of influenza severity.

Background: Altered gene expression in cancers holds great potential to improve the diagnostics and differentiation of primary and metastatic liver cancers. In this study, the expression of the protein-coding genes ring finger protein 135 (), ephrin-B2 (), ring finger protein 125 (), homeobox-C 4 (), actin-binding LIM protein 1 () and oncostatin M receptor () and the long non-coding RNAs (lncRNA) prospero homeobox 1 antisense RNA 1 () and leukemia inhibitory factor receptor antisense RNA 1 () was investigated in hepatocellular carcinoma, cholangiocarcinoma, colorectal liver metastases and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma liver metastases.

Methods: This study included 149 formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded samples from 80 patients.

Background: Glucose metabolism in breast cancer has a potential effect on tumor progression and is related to the immune microenvironment. Thus, this study aimed to develop a glucose metabolism-tumor microenvironment score to provide new perspectives on breast cancer treatment.

Method: Data were acquired from the Gene Expression Omnibus and UCSC Xena databases, and glucose-metabolism-related genes were acquired from the Gene Set Enrichment Analysis database.

CYFIP2: potential pancreatic cancer biomarker and immunotherapeutic target.

Discov Oncol

December 2024

The First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University, Nanchang University, 17 Yongwai Zhengjie, Donghu District, Nanchang, 330006, People's Republic of China.

Objective: It has been shown that the CYFIP2 (Cytoplasmic FMR1-interacting protein 2) gene is apoptosis p53-dependent and is associated with poor prognosis in malignant tumors such as gastric cancer and other and cervical cancer. However, the prognostic potential of CYFIP2 in pancreatic cancer remains unclear. In this work, we first explain the great potential of CYFIP2 malignant progression from a broader perspective (pan-cancer) and confirm its oncogenic value in pancreatic cancer.

Pan-cancer analysis shows that BCAP31 is a potential prognostic and immunotherapeutic biomarker for multiple cancer types.

Front Immunol

December 2024

Department of Otolaryngology, the Affiliated Suzhou Hospital of Nanjing Medical University, Suzhou Municipal Hospital, Gusu School, Nanjing Medical University, Suzhou, Jiangsu, China.

Article Synopsis
  • BCAP31 is a transmembrane protein primarily found in the endoplasmic reticulum that may be involved in cancer development, though its exact role is not fully known.
  • Researchers gathered data on BCAP31 expression from databases and found that higher levels of BCAP31 are associated with worse cancer prognosis.
  • The study investigated various factors like immune cell infiltration, drug responses, and conducted experiments on cell lines to understand BCAP31's functions and impact on cancer biology.
