Eleven independent tumors (5 basa-cell carcinomas, 5 squamous-cell carcinomas and 1 malignant melanoma), 2 pretumoral lesions and one common nevus, developing in the skin of 10 unrelated XP patients were cytogenetically analyzed. No specific chromosomal changes were observed. Two features were relevant, however: emergence of several independent clones and over-involvement of telomeric and centromeric regions in the formation of chromosomal rearrangements. Jumping translocations were observed in 2 squamous-cell carcinomas involving telomeric and centromeric regions.

Background: The aim of this clinical survey was to assess variations in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma from an unknown primary (HNSCCUP) diagnostic practices across international centers.
Methods: Clinical practice survey of experts nominated by Head and Neck Cancer International Group (HNCIG) and International Federation of Head and Neck Oncologic Societies (IFHNOS).
Results: Responses were received from 48/49 (97.

Purpose: (Tumor-educated platelets) TEPs have emerged as active players in all steps of tumorigenesis, confrontation of platelets with tumor cells via transfer of tumor-associated biomolecules and results in the sequestration of such biomolecules. The current study was aimed to examine whether TEPs lncRNA-STARD4-AS1 and ELOA-AS1 might be potential biomarkers for NSCLC.
Materials And Methods: TEPs were obtained by low-speed centrifugation.

FAT atypical cadherin 1 (), which encodes an atypical cadherin-coding protein, has a high mutation rate and is commonly regarded as a tumor suppressor gene in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Nonetheless, the potential regulatory mechanisms by which FAT1 influences the progression of HNSCC remain unresolved. In this context, we reported that FAT1 was downregulated in tumor tissues/cells compared with normal tissues/cells and that it was correlated with the clinicopathological features and prognosis of HNSCC.

Rechallenge with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) shows promise in various cancers, but data in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is limited. This study aimed to evaluate the efficiency and safety of ICI rechallenge in ESCC. This multicenter study analyzed ESCC patients rechallenged with ICI from January 2020 to March 2023 across two medical institutions.

Longikaurin A (LK-A), a naturally occurring ent-kaurane diterpenoid, has been identified as a promising anti-cancer agent. This study aims to elucidate the anti-tumorigenic effects of LK-A on oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) cells and to unravel its underlying mechanisms. assays, including CCK-8 and EdU, were performed to assess cell viability and proliferation.
