Endometrial carcinoma (EC) is the fifth widely occurring malignant neoplasm among women all over the world. However, there is still lacking efficacy indicators for EC's prognosis. Here, we analyzed two databases including an RNA-sequencing-based TCGA dataset and a microarray-based GSE106191. After normalizing the raw data, we identified 114 common genes with upregulation and 308 common genes with downregulation in both the TCGA and GSE106191 databases. Bioinformatics analysis showed that the differently expressed genes in EC were related to the IL17 signaling pathway, PI3K-Akt signaling pathway, and cGMP-PKG signaling pathway. Furthermore, we performed the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) Cox regression analysis and generated a signature featuring 17 prognosis-related genes (MAL2, ANKRD22, METTL7B, IL32, ERFE, OAS1, TRPC1, SRPX, RAPGEF4, PSD3, SIMC1, TRPC6, WFS1, PGR, PAMR1, KCNK6, and FAM189A2) and found that it could predict OS in EC patients. The further analysis showed that OAS1, MAL2, ANKRD22, METTL7B, and IL32 were significantly upregulated in EC samples after comparison with normal samples. However, TRPC1, SRPX, RAPGEF4, PSD3, SIMC1, TRPC6, WFS1, PGR, PAMR1, KCNK6, and FAM189A2 were significantly downregulated in EC samples in comparison with normal samples. And correlation analysis showed that our results showed that the expressions of 17 prognosis-related hub genes were significantly correlated based on Pearson correlation. We here offer a newly genetic biomarker for the prediction of EC patients' prognosis.

The emerging role of Bruton's tyrosine kinase inhibition in Urticaria Management.
Expert Opin Drug Saf
January 2025
Section of Dermatology - Department of Clinical Medicine and Surgery, University of Naples Federico II, Naples, Italy.
Introduction: Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) is a cytoplasmic signaling protein expressed across a variety of immune cells, terminally differentiated plasma cells, and natural killer cells. Due to the signal potential and targetable nature of BTK, the use of BTK inhibitors (BTKis) has been proposed for the management of several diseases. Currently, the use of BTKis is under investigations for several dermatological conditions such as pemphigus, systemic lupus erythematosus, hidradenitis suppurativa, atopic dermatitis, and chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU).

Background/purpose: Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is a common malignancy often associated with poor prognosis due to chemoresistance. In this study, we investigated whether arecoline, a major alkaloid in betel nuts, can stimulate aldo-keto reductase family 1 member B10 (AKR1B10) levels in OSCC, promoting cancer stemness and leading to resistance to cisplatin (CDDP)-based chemotherapy.
Materials And Methods: Gain- and Loss- of AKR1B10 functions were analyzed using WB and q-PCR of OSCC cells.

Background/purpose: Oral lichen planus (OLP) is a chronic inflammatory disorder characterized by basement membrane disruption, which plays a crucial role in its pathogenesis. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), a group of proteolytic enzymes, contribute to the degradation of the basement membrane. The specific MMPs secreted by keratinocytes in OLP lesions and relevant regulatory mechanisms are not fully understood.

Background/purpose: Revascularization procedures are used over apexification to treat teeth with necrotic pulp tissues and incomplete root formation. Clinically, inducing proliferation, migration, matrix deposition, and differentiation of stem cells from apical papilla (SCAPs) are critical for pulp regeneration. The study aimed to elucidate the impact of bone morphogenetic protein-4 (BMP-4) on plasminogen activation molecules and the osteogenic/odontogenic differentiation of SCAPs, as well as understand the related signaling mechanisms.

Background: : The metabolic by-product butyric acid of Gram-negative anaerobic bacteria can invoke pathological effects on periodontal cells resulting in inflammation and further destruction of periodontium. However, limited researches on the effects of butyric acid on cementoblasts were reported. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the type of cell death in murine cementoblast (OCCM.
