AI Article Synopsis

  • Lymphomas are categorized into Hodgkin's lymphoma and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL), with NHL being a diverse type of hematological cancer that ranges from slow-growing to aggressive forms.
  • Advances in understanding NHL's causes have enhanced diagnosis precision and prognosis evaluation, focusing on factors like chromosomal translocations and the loss of tumor suppressor genes.
  • Additionally, epigenetic changes, including DNA methylation and histone modifications, increasingly play a vital role in diagnosing and determining treatment outcomes for NHL patients.

Article Abstract

Lymphomas are traditionally divided into Hodgkin's lymphoma and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma(NHL), the NHL is a common hematological cancer, which represents a wide spectrum of illnesses from the most indolent to the most aggressive malignancies, and the detection of related molecular targets will be needed for diagosing each subtype of NHL. Advances in understanding the pathogenesis of NHL have improved the precision of diagnosis and the prognosis evaluation of patients with this disorder, such as chromosomal translocation leading to the up-regulation of oncogene expression. Besides, the deletion of several tumor suppressor genes may cause excessive proliferation in tumor cells, and the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) determines the differences of susceptibility, drug-resistance and prognosis of NHL. In addition, DNA methylation, histone modification, non-coding RNA and other epigenetic phenomena play an increasingly important role in the diagnosis, selection of clinical drugs and evaluation of prognosis of NHL. In this review, the recent progress of researches on chromosome translocation, deletion of tumor suppression genes, gene poly-morphism and epigenetics are summarized.

Introduction: Treatment with adjuvant osimertinib for three years is the standard-of-care for resected stage IB-IIIA non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harboring epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutations. The role of neoadjuvant osimertinib in the perioperative setting is yet to be elucidated in the NeoADAURA study (NCT04351555).

Methods: This is a single center, pilot study of patients with clinical stage IA-IIIA NSCLC (AJCC 8th edition) harboring an activating EGFR mutation (Exon 19 deletion, L858R) (NCT04816838).

The ubiquitin proteasome system (UPS), driven by ubiquitin as a degradation signal, eliminates, in a highly specific manner, 'abnormal' proteins and proteins that completed their function. This process involves a hierarchical cascade of E1, E2, and E3 enzymes. The E3 ubiquitin ligases, act as specific receptors that bind their cognate substrates.

Major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I load antigens and present them on the cell surface, which transduces the tumor-associated antigens to CD8 T cells, activating the acquired immune system. However, many tumors downregulate MHC I expression to evade immune surveillance. The low expression of MHC I not only reduce recognition by- and cytotoxicity of CD8 T cells, but also seriously weakens the anti-tumor effect of immunotherapy by restoring CD8 T cells, such as immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs).

Intermittent fasting (IF) has been shown to ameliorate inflammation including DSS-induced colitis. It is well known that autophagy can limit inflammation and TFEB is a master transcriptional factor that regulates the processes of autophagy. However, whether TFEB is involved in the regulation of IF-mediated amelioration of inflammation and its mechanism remained unclear.

Limb expression 1-like protein (LIX1L) is an essential player in liver disorders, but its function in metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) and associated hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) progression remains obscure. Here, we identify LIX1L as a key integrative regulator linking lipid metabolism and inflammation, adipose tissue and hepatic microenvironment, which promotes MASH progression. LIX1L significantly upregulates in MASH patients, mouse models, and palmitic acid-stimulated hepatocytes.
