Correction: Profiles of a broad spectrum of epigenetic DNA modifications in normal and malignant human cell lines: Proliferation rate is not the major factor responsible for the 5-hydroxymethyl-2'-deoxycytidine level in cultured cancerous cell lines. | LitMetric
Bulk electrical impedance spectroscopy (bio-capacitance) probes, hold significant promise for real-time cell monitoring in bioprocesses. Focusing on Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells, we present a sensitivity analysis framework to assess the impact of cell and culture properties on the complex permittivity spectrum, ε, and its associated parameters, permittivity increment, Δε, critical frequency, f, and Cole-Cole parameter, α, measured by bio-capacitance probes. Our sensitivity analysis showed that Δε is highly sensitive to cell size and concentration, making it suitable for estimating biovolume during the exponential growth phase, whereas f provides information about cumulative changes in cell size, membrane permittivity, and cytoplasm conductivity during the transition to death phase.
Environmental exposures, including air pollutants and lack of natural spaces, are associated with suboptimal health outcomes in children. We aimed to study the associations between environmental exposures and gene expression in children. Associations of exposure to particulate matter (PM) with diameter <2.
Background: Driver mutations in tyrosine kinases, such as the anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) mutation, are known to play a critical role in the pathogenesis of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) but are rarely observed in large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (LCNEC). Multiple primary malignancies (MPMs) refer to the occurrence of two or more distinct primary malignancies within the same or different organs and tissues in a single patient, either simultaneously or sequentially.
Case Presentation: We reported a case of advanced LCNEC as a heterochronous double primary malignancy, following a prior breast cancer diagnosis in a 55-year-old woman.

Introduction: Pediatric sarcomas, including osteosarcoma (OS), Ewing sarcoma (EwS) and rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) carry low somatic mutational burden and low MHC-I expression, posing a challenge for T cell therapies. Our previous study showed that mediators of monocyte maturation sensitized the EwS cell line A673 to lysis by HLA-A*02:01/CHM1-specific allorestricted T cell receptor (TCR) transgenic CD8 T cells (CHM1 CD8 T cells).
Methods: In this study, we tested a panel of monocyte maturation cytokines for their ability to upregulate immunogenic cell surface markers on OS, EwS and RMS cell lines, using flow cytometry.
Background: Migrasomes are newly identified organelles on the retracting fibers of migrating cells, involved in releasing signaling molecules, expelling damaged mitochondria, and facilitating intercellular communication through phagocytosis. TSPAN4, a key regulator of migrasome formation, is a valuable marker for visualizing these organelles. However, its role in cancer remains unclear.
