Background: Family with sequence similarity 65 member A (FAM65A), also known as RIPOR1, is differentially expressed between human tumor and non-tumor tissues in kinds of cancers. In addition, it was reported that the product of FAM65A may be a biomarker for cholangiocarcinoma patients. However, there is still no evidence on the relationship between the FAM65A and different types of tumors. Our study is mainly for exploring the prognostic values of FAM65A in pan-cancer and for further discovering a potential therapeutics target.
Methods: We analyzed FAM65A expression, prognostic values, genetic alteration, protein phosphorylation, immune infiltration and enrichment analysis across different types of human malignant tumors based on The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) datasets. Additionally, Real-Time PCR (RT-qPCR) was performed to further confirm the roles of FAM65A in the pathogenesis of colorectal cancer.
Results: We found that FAM65A expression was associated with the prognosis of multiple human tumors, especially colorectal cancer. Moreover, we also observed that FAM65A was highly expressed in colorectal cancer through RT-qPCR. We observed that decreasing phosphorylation level of the S351 locus in colon adenocarcinoma, uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma and lung adenocarcinoma. And the expression of FAM65A was positively related to cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) infiltration in many tumors, such as colon adenocarcinoma. Therefore, FAM65A may be a potential prognostic biomarker of human tumors.

Background: Considering that peripheral blood biomarkers are prognostic predictors for several human tumors, this study aimed to comparatively analyze the association of hematological alterations with the incidence of epithelial dysplasia (ED) and oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) in male and female mice treated with 4-nitroquinoline-N-oxide (4NQO) and ethanol (EtOH).
Methods: 120 C57Bl/6J mice (60 males and 60 females) were allocated to four groups (n = 15). They were treated firstly either with 5 mg/mL propylene glycol (PPG) or 100 μg/mL 4NQO in the drinking water for 10 weeks, followed by sterilized water (HO) or 8% EtOH (v/v) for 15 weeks, as follows: PPG/HO, PPG/EtOH, 4NQO/HO, and 4NQO/EtOH (CEUA-UFU, #020/21).

Sorafenib (Sora) is a first-line treatment for patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). It can significantly improve the survival rate of patients with advanced HCC, but it is prone to drug resistance during treatment, so the therapeutic effect is extremely limited. Here, we demonstrate that an elevated expression of protein kinase p38γ in hepatocellular carcinoma cells diminishes the tumor cells' sensitivity to Sora.

Purpose: To investigate the technique for dorsal median sulcus (DMS) mapping and assess its application value in preserving dorsal columnn (DC) function during intramedullary space occupying surgery based on a single-center experience.
Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 41 cases of intramedullary spinal cord tumor admitted to the Department of Neurosurgery at the First Affiliated Hospital of Xiamen University from March 2017 to August 2023. All included cases underwent intraoperative electrophysiological monitoring, and were divided into a study group (n = 18) and a control group (n = 23), based on whether DMS mapping technique was utilized.
