Non-SMC condensin I complex subunit H (NCAPH) is a structural component of chromosomes during mitosis, which up-regulates in various cancers. However, the role of NCAPH in breast cancer still hasn't been clearly explored. Our aim is to confirm the value of NCAPH as a prognostic biomarker of breast cancer. We revealed the high expression of NCAPH in breast cancer by using Oncomine, Ualcan and GOBO analysis. Quantitative Real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) analysis was conducted to detect the mRNA expression of NCAPH in MCF-7 and MCF-10A cells, and thus higher mRNA level of NCAPH in MCF-7 cells was confirmed. STRING and gene enrich analysis were conducted to explore the interaction between NCAPH and other proteins, hence the functionality of NCAPH in mitosis is demonstrated. With Kaplan-Meier plotter we found that upregulation of NCAPH is indicative of a poor prognosis especially in hormone receptor positive breast cancer. We confirmed the potential competence of NCAPH as a promising biomarker in breast cancer prognosis.

This study utilizes single-cell RNA sequencing data to reveal the transcriptomic characteristics of breast cancer and normal epithelial cells. Nine significant cell populations were identified through stringent quality control and batch effect correction. Further classification of breast cancer epithelial cells based on the PAM50 method and clinical subtypes highlighted significant heterogeneity between triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) and non-triple-negative breast cancer (NTNBC).

In the past few years, three protein molecules-USP53, NPY2R, and DCTN1-AS1-have garnered significant attention in scientific research due to their potential implications in tumor development. Mass spectrometry and proteomics techniques were used to analyze the three-dimensional structure of these protein molecules and predict their active sites and functional domains. The effects of USP53, NPY2R and DCTN1-AS1 on biological behavior of tumor cells were studied by constructing gene knockout and overexpression cell models.

Background: During the COVID-19 pandemic, hospitals were overwhelmed with infected patients, leading to a disruption in the delivery of services. Patients with cancer, including breast cancer, rely on timely treatment, as delays can reduce survival rates. In this study, we investigated delays in treatment and the factors contributing to delays in chemotherapy and radiotherapy for these patients.

Multimodal phototheranostics on the basis of single molecular species shows inexhaustible and vigorous vitality, particularly those emit fluorescence in the second near-infrared window (NIR-II), the construction of such exceptional molecules nonetheless retains formidably challenging. In view of the undiversified molecular skeletons and insufficient phototheranostic outputs of previously reported NIR-II fluorophores, herein, electron acceptor engineering based on heteroatom-inserted rigid-planar pyrazinoquinoxaline was manipulated to fabricate aggregation-induced emission (AIE)-featured NIR-II counterparts with donor-acceptor-donor (D-A-D) architecture. Systematical investigations substantiated that one of those synthesized AIE molecules, namely 4TPQ, incorporating a fused thiophene acceptor, synchronously exhibited high molar absorptivity (ε), NIR-II emission, typical AIE tendency, significant reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, and high photothermal conversion efficiency.
