We compared gene expression in low and high-grade intraepithelial dysplastic polyps from pigs carrying an APC truncating mutation orthologous to human APC , analysing whole samples and microdissected dysplastic epithelium. Gene set enrichment analysis revealed differential expression of gene sets similar to human normal mucosa versus T1 stage polyps. Transcriptome analysis of whole samples revealed many differentially-expressed genes reflecting immune infiltration. Analysis of microdissected dysplastic epithelium was markedly different and showed increased expression in high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia of several genes known to be involved in human CRC; and revealed possible new roles for GBP6 and PLXND1. The pig model thus facilitates analysis of CRC pathogenesis.

Background/objectives: Human papillomavirus (HPV) is the primary cause of high-grade cervical lesions and cervical cancer worldwide. In Norway, HPV vaccination was introduced in 2009 for seventh-grade girls and extended through a catch-up program from 2016 to 2019 for women born between 1991 and 1996. This study evaluates the impact of the catch-up vaccination program on the incidence of HPV and high-grade cervical lesions in Troms and Finnmark.

Cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) is a premalignant cervical condition closely linked to persistent high-risk HPV infection, a major risk factor for cervical cancer. This study aims to investigate the relationship between cervicovaginal infections, HPV infection, and CIN development in 94 Romanian women with cervical lesions. Comprehensive assessments included HPV genotyping, cytology, colposcopy, and histopathology.

Multimodal artificial intelligence system for detecting a small esophageal high-grade squamous intraepithelial neoplasia: A case report.

World J Gastrointest Endosc

January 2025

Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu 610041, Sichuan Province, China.

Background: Recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) have significantly enhanced the capabilities of endoscopic-assisted diagnosis for gastrointestinal diseases. AI has shown great promise in clinical practice, particularly for diagnostic support, offering real-time insights into complex conditions such as esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.

Case Summary: In this study, we introduce a multimodal AI system that successfully identified and delineated a small and flat carcinoma during esophagogastroduodenoscopy, highlighting its potential for early detection of malignancies.

Methylation of and Are Risk Factors and Potential Biomarkers for Cervical Lesions.

World J Oncol

February 2025

Department of Pathology, The Seventh Medical Center, Chinese PLA General Hospital, Beijing 100700, China.

Background: The correlation between methylation of paired box gene 1 () and sex determining region Y-box 1 () with human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and the progression of cervical lesions is not well understood. This study aims to explore the potential value of and as diagnostic biomarkers for cervical diseases.

Methods: A total of 139 cervical biopsy tissue samples were obtained from the Department of Pathology, the Seventh Medical Center, Chinese PLA General Hospital from 2021 to 2023.

Purpose: Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is the major cause of (pre)malignant cervical lesions. We previously demonstrated that Vvax001, a replication-incompetent Semliki Forest virus (SFV) vaccine encoding HPV type 16 (HPV16) E6 and E7, induced potent anti-E6 and -E7 cytotoxic T-cell responses. Here, we investigated the clinical efficacy of Vvax001 in patients with HPV16-positive cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 3 (CIN3).
