Published: January 2017

The Hippo pathway participates in the regulation of cell proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis. It is composed by a large array of proteins whose deregulation has been associated with pro-oncogenic and antioncogenic processes. The present review focuses on the Hippo pathway signalling network and discusses its dual role in oncogenesis, particularly in haematological malignancies.

Background: Oxaliplatin is the first-line chemotherapy for patients with colon cancer (CC). However, its resistance limits its therapeutic efficacy.

Methods: Oxaliplatin resistance-associated differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in the GSE42387 and GSE227315 datasets were identified through bioinformatics methods.

: With the rise in prevalence of diagnostic genetic techniques like RNA sequencing and whole exome sequencing (WES), as well as biological treatment regiments for cancer therapy, several genes have been implicated in carcinogenesis. This review aims to update our understanding of the Neurofibromatosis 2 (NF2) gene and its role in the pathogenesis of various cancers. : A comprehensive search of five online databases yielded 43 studies that highlighted the effect of sporadic NF2 mutations on several cancers, including sporadic meningioma, ependymoma, schwannoma, mesothelioma, breast cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, prostate cancer, glioblastoma, thyroid cancer, and melanoma.

Background: Almonertinib is the initial third-generation EGFR-TKI in China, but its resistance mechanism is unknown. Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are essential matrix components in the tumor microenvironment, but their impact on almonertinib resistance is unknown. This study aimed to explore the correlation between CAFs and almonertinib resistance in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

A feedback loop between Paxillin and Yorkie sustains Drosophila intestinal homeostasis and regeneration.

Balanced self-renewal and differentiation of stem cells are crucial for maintaining tissue homeostasis, but the underlying mechanisms of this process remain poorly understood. Here, from an RNA interference (RNAi) screen in adult Drosophila intestinal stem cells (ISCs), we identify a factor, Pax, which is orthologous to mammalian PXN, coordinates the proliferation and differentiation of ISCs during both normal homeostasis and injury-induced midgut regeneration in Drosophila. Loss of Pax promotes ISC proliferation while suppressing its differentiation into absorptive enterocytes (ECs).

Background: Brain intraparenchymal schwannoma is a rare clinical entity, generally curable with adequate resection.

Methods And Results: We describe a case in a male patient first presenting at 19 months of age, the youngest reported age for this lesion. It also appears to be the first case connected to a germline TSC2 p.
