Sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) is an important signaling regulator involved in tumor progression in multiple neoplasms. However, the role of S1P in the pathogenesis of ovarian cancer remains unclear. Herein, we summarize recent advances in understanding the impact of S1P signaling in ovarian cancer progression. S1P, aberrantly produced in ovarian cancer patients, is involved in the regulation of key cellular processes that contribute to ovarian cancer initiation and progression. Moreover, agents that block the S1P signaling pathway inhibit ovarian cancer cell growth or induce apoptosis. Hence, current evidence suggests that S1P may become a potential molecular target for ovarian cancer therapy.

Background: Dermatomyositis is a chronic inflammatory condition affecting muscles and skin, often associated with an increased risk of cancer. Specific autoantibodies, including anti-TIF1 (Transcription Intermediary Factor 1), have been linked to this risk. We present a case of dermatomyositis in a male patient positive for anti-TIF1 antibodies, subsequently diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma of the tonsil, a novel association not previously documented.

Purpose: Hereditary breast and ovarian cancers (HBOC) carry a high risk of breast cancer, and detailed screening with contrast-enhanced breast MRI (breast MRI surveillance) is recommended. With the increase in the number of individuals diagnosed with HBOC, the demand for breast MRI surveillance is also rising. However, the current system is inadequate, with factors such as lack of knowledge and indifference among healthcare professionals, and insufficient understanding of breast MRI surveillance being cited.

Background: The pathogenesis of ovarian cancer (OvCa) involves a complex interplay of genetic, environmental, and hormonal factors. With the in-depth exploration of tumor ecosystem, exosomes can mediate the immunological status of tumor microenvironment (TME). Therefore, we aimed to recognize the tumor-derived exosomes (TEXs) which can distinguish the immune-hot and cold tumors and reflect the immunotherapeutic responses.

Background: Ovarian cancer is among the most lethal gynecologic malignancy that threatens women's lives. Pathological diagnosis is a key tool for early detection and diagnosis of ovarian cancer, guiding treatment strategies. The evaluation of various ovarian cancer-related cells, based on morphological and immunohistochemical pathology images, is deemed an important step.
