Background: Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is the most common diagnostic histologic subtype of non-small cell lung cancer, but the role of receptor-type tyrosine-protein phosphatase-like N (PTPRN) in LUAD has not been studied.
Methods: We conducted a bioinformatic analysis to identify the expression of PTPRN on LUAD data from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and the relationship between PTPRN and overall survival of LUAD patients. The effects of PTPRN on the migration ability of LUAD cells and the underlying mechanisms were investigated by and assays (i.e., wound healing assay, transwell assay, western blotting, xenograft model, and immunohistochemistry). Gene-set enrichment analysis and computational resource were used to analyze the correlation between PTPRN and different tumor-infiltrating immune cells (TIICs). Lactate dehydrogenase assay and Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay were conducted to examine natural killer (NK) cell cytotoxicity.
Results: In our study, we found that PTPRN was up-regulated in LUAD and related to metastasis of LUAD patients. Besides, PTPRN was correlated with poor prognosis in the TCGA-LUAD dataset. PTPRN overexpression promoted LUAD cell migration and the expression of EMT markers by influencing MEK/ERK and PI3K/AKT signaling. Moreover, PTPRN expression was significantly associated with TIICs, especially NK cells. A549 and H1299 cells overexpressed PTPRN inhibited NK cell cytotoxicity.
Conclusion: Taken together, these findings demonstrated that PTPRN might be a potential and novel therapeutic target modulating antitumor immune response in treatment of LUAD.

Background: Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is a significant health concern. The prognostic value of oxidative stress (OS)-related genes in NSCLC remains unclear. The study aimed to explore the prognostic significance of OS-genes in NSCLC using extensive datasets from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO).

Purpose: Using clinical information and transcriptomic sequencing data from glioblastoma (GBM) patients in the TCGA database to perform gene-by-gene analysis that is aligned with individual patient characteristics and develop an optimal prognostic index of survival-related variables (OPISV) through iterative machine learning techniques to predict the prognosis of GBM patients.
Study Design: The TCGA dataset was utilized as the training dataset, while two GEO datasets served as independent validation cohorts. Initially, survival analysis (p < 0.

Article Synopsis
- Type 1 diabetes (T1D) screening can help prevent severe complications by testing islet autoantibodies (IAbs) in children, especially since most cases don't have a family history; a single screening at ages 3-5 is suggested.* -
- In a study conducted in Oxfordshire, UK, 134 parents were invited to participate, and 66 were recruited; almost all enrolled children (97%) successfully provided blood samples, identifying one child with T1D autoantibodies.* -
- Parents generally supported the idea of screening during routine vaccinations, emphasizing that combining the two would encourage participation, although there are concerns about the amount of blood needed for testing.*

The neuroendocrine marker genes Ptprn and Ptprn2 encode protein tyrosine phosphatase receptors N and N2, 2 members of protein tyrosine phosphatase receptors void of enzymatic activity, and whose function and mechanism of action have not been elucidated. To explore the role(s) of Ptprn and Ptprn2 on the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, we used mice in which both genes were knocked out (DKO). The focus in this study was on corticotrophs and melanotrophs from the anterior and intermediate lobes of the pituitary gland, respectively.

Intrinsic plasticity, a fundamental process enabling neurons to modify their intrinsic properties, plays a crucial role in shaping neuronal input-output function and is implicated in various neurological and psychiatric disorders. Despite its importance, the underlying molecular mechanisms of intrinsic plasticity remain poorly understood. In this study, a new ubiquitin ligase adaptor, protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor type N (PTPRN), is identified as a regulator of intrinsic neuronal excitability in the context of temporal lobe epilepsy.
