Renal cell carcinoma has extremely heterogeneous presentation at the diagnosis: it may present as a confined organ disease, locally advanced, metastatic to locoregional lymph nodes or with single or multiple systemic metastases. Since chemotherapy and radiation therapy have not demonstrated efficacy either in primary therapy or in neo-adjuvant or adjuvant therapy for renal clear cell carcinoma, targeted agents like tirosine kinase inhibitors were developed and are largely used in locally advanced and metastatic renal cell carcinoma. Here, we present a rare case of ipsilateral renal cell carcinoma testicle metastasis, after radical nephrectomy and during tyrosine kinase inhibitors therapy. In addition, a retrospective search in PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Web of Science database on testicular metasteses from renal cell carcinoma under tyrosine kinase inhibitors therapy was performed.

Background: Naringenin, a flavonoid compound found in citrus fruits, possesses valuable anticancer properties. However, its potential application in cancer treatment is limited by poor bioavailability and pharmacokinetics at tumor sites. To address this, Naringenin nanoparticles (NARNPs) were prepared using the emulsion diffusion technique and their anticancer effects were investigated in HepG2 cells.

Background: Synthesis of organic@inorganic hNFs is achieved by the coordination of organic compounds containing amine, amide, and diol groups with bivalent metals. The use of bio-extracts containing these functional groups instead of expensive organic inputs such as DNA, enzymes, and protein creates advantages in terms of cost and applicability. In this study, the application potentials (antioxidant, antibacterial, anticancer, guaiacol, anionic, and cationic dye degradation) of hybrid (organic@inorganic) nanoflowers (hNFs) synthesized with Cu and snakeskin (SSS) were proposed.

Background: S. haematobium is a recognized carcinogen and is associated with squamous cell carcinoma of the bladder. Its association with high-risk(HR) human papillomavirus (HPV) persistence, cervical pre-cancer and cervical cancer incidence has not been fully explored.

Enhancer RNA (eRNA) has emerged as a key player in cancer biology, influencing various aspects of tumor development and progression. In this study, we investigated the role of eRNAs in kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC), the most common subtype of renal cell carcinoma. Leveraging high-throughput sequencing data and bioinformatics analysis, we identified differentially expressed eRNAs in KIRC and constructed eRNA-centric regulatory networks.

Background: Tumor microenvironment (TME) plays a crucial role in tumor growth and metastasis. Exploring biomarkers that are significantly associated with TME can help guide individualized treatment of patients.
Methods: We analyzed the expression and survival of P4HB in pan-cancer through the TCGA database, and verified the protein level of P4HB by the HPA database.
