Background: Breast cancer had been the most frequently diagnosed cancer among women, making up nearly one-third of all female cancers. Hormone receptor-positive breast cancer (HR+BC) was the most prevalent subtype of breast cancer and exhibited significant heterogeneity. Despite advancements in endocrine therapies, patients with advanced HR+BC often faced poor outcomes due to the development of resistance to treatment.

Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is a highly malignant tumor characterized by a significant propensity for recurrence and metastasis. DNA methylation has emerged as a critical epigenetic mechanism with substantial utility in cancer diagnosis. In this study, multi-omics data were utilized to investigate the target genes regulated by the transcription factor MYC-associated zinc finger protein (MAZ) in ccRCC, leading to the identification of thymidine phosphorylase (TYMP) as a gene with notably elevated expression in ccRCC.

The aim of this study was to analyze dihydrolipoyllysine-residue acetyltransferase (DLAT) expression and diagnostic ability in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), assess its role in HCC growth, and factors affecting it. We conducted bioinformatics analyses, examined DLAT expression and prognosis in pre-cancer, and performed Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment studies while investigating its correlation with immunity. We also predicted regulatory factors, and detected DLAT in HCC cells using quantitative PCR (qPCR) and Western blotting, and in patient serum via enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).

Protein kinases are key components of multiple cell signaling pathways. Several receptor-like cytoplasmic kinases (RLCKs) have demonstrated roles in immune and developmental signaling across various plant species, making them of interest in the study of phosphorylation-based signal relay. Here, we present our investigation of a subgroup of RLCKs in Arabidopsis thaliana.

Aim: High-altitude cardiac injury is a prevalent form of tissue damage resulting from hypobaric hypoxia (HH). MICU1 is a critical modulator of mitochondrial calcium uptake, with significant implications for the regulation of mitochondrial redox homeostasis. This study sought to examine the impact of MICU1 and elucidate the underlying mechanism in myocardial exposed to HH.
