Metabolism and DNA methylation (DNAm) are closely linked. The value of the metabolism-DNAm interplay in stratifying glioma patients has not been explored. In the present study, we aimed to stratify lower-grade glioma (LGG) patients based on the DNAm associated with metabolic reprogramming. Four data sets of LGGs from three databases (TCGA/CGGA/GEO) were used in this study. By screening the Kendall's correlation of DNAm with 87 metabolic processes from KEGG, we identified 391 CpGs with a strong correlation with metabolism. Based on these metabolism-associated CpGs, we performed consensus clustering and identified three distinct subgroups of LGGs. These three subgroups were characterized by distinct molecular features and clinical outcomes. We also constructed a subgroup-related, quantifiable CpG signature with strong prognostic power to stratify LGGs. It also serves as a potential biomarker to predict the response to immunotherapy. Overall, our findings provide new perspectives for the stratification of LGGs and for understanding the mechanisms driving malignancy.

Lower risk (LR) myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are heterogeneous hematopoietic stem and progenitor disorders caused by the accumulation of somatic mutations in various genes including epigenetic regulators that may produce convergent DNA methylation patterns driving specific gene expression profiles. The integration of genomic, epigenomic, and transcriptomic profiling has the potential to spotlight distinct LR-MDS categories on the basis of pathophysiological mechanisms. We performed a comprehensive study of somatic mutations and DNA methylation in a large and clinically well-annotated cohort of treatment-naive patients with LR-MDS at diagnosis from the EUMDS registry (ClinicalTrials.

Background: The correlation between methylation of paired box gene 1 () and sex determining region Y-box 1 () with human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and the progression of cervical lesions is not well understood. This study aims to explore the potential value of and as diagnostic biomarkers for cervical diseases.
Methods: A total of 139 cervical biopsy tissue samples were obtained from the Department of Pathology, the Seventh Medical Center, Chinese PLA General Hospital from 2021 to 2023.

Background: The clinical course of high-risk neuroblastoma patients remains suboptimal, and the dynamic and reversible nature of cellular senescence provides an opportunity to develop new therapies.
Objective: This study aims to identify unique markers of cellular senescence in neuroblastoma and to explore their clinical significance.
Methods: The impact of multiple genetic regulatory mechanisms on cellular senescence-associated genes (CSAGs) was first assessed.

Background And Purpose: Whether differences in the O-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase () promoter methylation status of glioblastoma (GBM) are reflected in MRI markers remains largely unknown. In this work, we analyze the ADC in the perienhancing infiltration zone of GBM according to the corresponding status by using a novel distance-resolved 3D evaluation.
Materials And Methods: One hundred one patients with wild-type GBM were retrospectively analyzed.

Background: Endogenous retrovirus (ERV) elements are genomic footprints of ancestral retroviral infections within the human genome. While the dysregulation of ERV transcription has been linked to immune cell infiltration in various cancers, its relationship with immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) response in solid tumors, particularly metastatic clear-cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC), remains inadequately explored.
Methods: This study analyzed patients with metastatic ccRCC from two prospective clinical trials, encompassing 181 patients receiving nivolumab in the CheckMate trials (-009 to -010 and -025) and 48 patients treated with the ipilimumab-nivolumab combination in the BIONIKK trial.
