Preeclampsia is a pregnancy related condition identified by hypertension and either proteinuria or end-organ dysfunction after 20(th) week of gestation and complicates 2-8% pregnancies worldwide. Enigmatic pathophysiology and multi-system involvement hinder accurate identification and clinical management of patients. Inadequate trophoblast invasion and subsequent inflammatory response have been implicated in the onset of PE. In absence of effective treatment of preeclampsia except delivery, recent research has been focused on identification of specific and sensitive biomarkers for early prediction of PE. Several angiogenic, anti-angiogenic, inflammatory, biophysical (mean arterial pressure and uterine artery Doppler) biomarkers, alone and in combination, have been proposed for prediction but limited predictive values have hindered their use in clinical settings. Current review summarizes some of relatively new biomarkers such as corin, copeptin, microparticles and miRNA, the prognostic efficiency of which are either analyzed in associated disorders or recently discovered.

Background: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a highly aggressive cancer with limited treatment options and a poor prognosis. The critical role of epigenetic alterations such as changes in DNA methylation, histones modifications, and chromatin remodeling, in pancreatic tumors progression is becoming increasingly recognized. Moreover, in PDAC these aberrant epigenetic mechanisms can also limit therapy efficacy.

Aims: Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) shows considerable variation within and between tumors, presents varying treatment responses among patients, possibly due to molecular distinctions. This study utilized a multi-center and multi-omics analysis to establish and validate a prognosis and treatment vulnerability signature (PTVS) capable of effectively predicting patient prognosis and drug responsiveness.
Materials And Methods: To address this complexity, we constructed an integrative multi-omics analysis using 10 clustering algorithms on ccRCC patient data.

Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the most prevalent malignant tumors in the world and has an extremely poor prognosis. Regulator of calcineurin 1 (RCAN1), a known tumor suppressor in various cancers, has an undefined role in the proliferation and metastasis of GC. Primary tumor and paired normal gastric tissues were collected from 77 patients with GC for evaluating the mRNA levels of 3 RCAN1 transcripts.

Fabry disease (FD) is a rare disorder resulting from a genetic mutation characterized by the accumulation of sphingolipids in various cells throughout the human body, leading to progressive and irreversible organ damage, particularly in males. Genetically-determined deficiency or reduced activity of the enzyme (alpha - Galactosidase; α-Gal) leads to the accumulation of sphingolipids in the lysosomes of various cell types, including the heart, kidneys, skin, eyes, central nervous system, and digestive system, triggering damage, leading to the failure of vital organs, and resulting in progressive disability and premature death. FD diagnostics currently depend on costly and time-intensive genetic tests and enzymatic analysis, often leading to delayed or inaccurate diagnoses, which contribute to rapid disease progression.

Spatial profiling of tissues promises to elucidate tumor-microenvironment interactions and generate prognostic and predictive biomarkers. We analyzed single-cell, spatial data from three multiplex imaging technologies: cyclic immunofluorescence (CycIF) data we generated from 102 breast cancer patients with clinical follow-up, and publicly available imaging mass cytometry and multiplex ion-beam imaging datasets. Similar single-cell phenotyping results across imaging platforms enabled combined analysis of epithelial phenotypes to delineate prognostic subtypes among estrogen-receptor positive (ER+) patients.
