Background: To examine the influence of HOXD10 on the metabolism and growth of colon carcinoma cells by suppressing the RHOC/AKT/MAPK pathway.
Methods: Thirty-seven paired colon cancer and its adjacent samples from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) were analyzed. Chip Analysis Methylation Pipeline (ChAMP) analysis was employed for differential methylated points (DMPs) and the differential methylation regions (DMRs) screening. The HOXD10 mRNA expression and DNA methylation levels were detected by RT-PCR. The Cell proliferation, migration, invasion and apoptosis were respectively measured by MTT assay, transwell assay, wound healing assay and flow cytometry assay in carcinoma cell lines after treated with 5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine (5-Aza-dC) or transfected with HOXD10-expressing plasmid. The expression of HOXD10 and RHOC was revealed by immunohistochemistry in disparate differentiation colon carcinoma tissues, and the dephosphorylation of AKT and MAPK pathways were detected by RT-PCR and western blot.
Results: The bioinformatics analysis demonstrated that HOXD10 was hypermethylated and low-expressed in colorectal cancer tissues. The detection of RT-PCR indicated the similar results in colorectal cancer cell lines and tissues. The induction of demethylation was recovered by treatment with 5-Aza-dC and the HOXD10 in colorectal cancer cell lines was re-expressed by transfection with a HOXD10 expression vector. The demethylation or overexpression of HOXD10 suppressed proliferation, migration, invasion and promoted apoptosis in colorectal cancer cells. HXOD10 suppressed the tumor growth and detected an opposite trend of protein RHOC. AKT and MAPK pathways were notably inactivated after the dephosphorylation due to the overexpression of HOXD10.
Conclusions: HOXD10 was suppressed in colon adenocarcinoma cells, which down-regulated RHOC/AKT/MAPK pathway to enhance colon cancer cells apoptosis and constrain the proliferation, migration and invasion.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common cancers worldwide and inflammation is believed to play an important role in CRC. In this study, we comprehensively analyzed the causal association between 91 circulating inflammatory cytokines and the risk of CRC using Mendelian randomization (MR). Based on genome-wide association study summary statistics, we examined the causal effects of 91 circulating inflammatory cytokines on CRC.

Purpose: Older adults with cancer have unique needs, which likely influence surgical outcomes in the geriatric oncology population. We conducted a systematic review to describe the literature focused on perioperative supportive care interventions for older adults with cancer undergoing surgery.
Methods: Following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines, we performed a comprehensive search using the Ovid MEDLINE, CINAHL, and Embase databases for literature published from January 2010 to October 2023.

Purpose: Although lung cancer is one of the most common malignancies, the underlying genetics regarding susceptibility remain poorly understood. We characterized the spectrum of pathogenic/likely pathogenic (P/LP) germline variants within DNA damage response (DDR) genes among lung cancer cases and controls in non-Hispanic Whites (NHWs) and African Americans (AAs).
Materials And Methods: Rare, germline variants in 67 DDR genes with evidence of pathogenicity were identified using the ClinVar database.

Background: Most cancer survivors have multiple cardiovascular risk factors, increasing their risk of poor cardiovascular and cancer outcomes. The Automated Heart-Health Assessment (AH-HA) tool is a novel electronic health record clinical decision support tool based on the American Heart Association's Life's Simple 7 cardiovascular health (CVH) metrics to promote CVH assessment and discussion in outpatient oncology. Before proceeding to future implementation trials, it is critical to establish the acceptability of the tool among providers and survivors.

The mycobiome plays a key role in the host immune responses in homeostasis and inflammation. Recent studies suggest that an imbalance in the gut's fungi contributes to chronic, noninfectious diseases such as obesity, metabolic disorders, and cancers. Pathogenic fungi can colonize specific organs, and the gut mycobiome has been linked to the development and progression of various cancers, including colorectal, breast, head and neck, and pancreatic cancers.
