Wilms' tumor is the most common type of renal tumor in children. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding RNAs that play crucial regulatory roles in tumorigenesis. We aimed to study the expression profile and function of miR-27a-5p in Wilms' tumor. miR-27a-5p expression was downregulated in human Wilms' tumor tissues. Functionally, overexpression of miR-27a-5p promoted cell apoptosis of Wilms' tumor cells. Furthermore, upregulated miR-27a-5p delayed xenograft Wilms' tumor tumorigenesis . Bioinformatics analysis predicted that miR-27a-5p directly targeted the 3'-untranslated region (3'-UTR) of PBOV1, and luciferase reporter assay confirmed the interaction between miR-27a-5p and PBOV1. The function of PBOV1 in Wilms' tumor was evaluated , and knockdown of PBOV1 dampened cell migration. In addition, overexpression of PBOV1 antagonized the tumor-suppressive effect of miR-27a-5p in Wilms' tumor cells. Collectively, our findings reveal the regulatory axis of miR-27a-5p/PBOV1 in Wilms' tumor, and miR-27a-5p might serve as a novel therapeutic target in Wilms' tumor.

Background: In the fifth National Wilms Tumor Study, patients received vincristine and dactinomycin (VA) without radiation for stage I focal anaplastic Wilms tumor (FAWT) and VA plus doxorubicin (DD4A) and radiation for stage II-IV FAWT. Four-year event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS) for stage I FAWT were 67.5% and 88.

Background: Few studies have investigated associations between per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and childhood cancers. Detectable levels of PFAS in California water districts were reported in the Third Unregulated Contaminant Monitoring Rule for 2013-2015.
Methods: Geocoded residences at birth were linked to corresponding water district boundaries for 10,220 California-born children (aged 0-15 years) diagnosed with cancers (2000-2015) and 29,974 healthy controls.

Background: N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is one of the most conserved internal RNA modifications, which has been implicated in many biological processes, such as apoptosis and proliferation. Wilms tumor 1-associating protein (WTAP), as a key component of m6A methylation, is a nuclear protein that has been associated with the regulation of proliferation and apoptosis. Rheumatoid arthritis (RA), a systemic, infiltrating autoimmune disease, is characterized by synovial hyperplasia.

Purpose: To create a computer-aided prediction (CAP) system to predict Wilms tumor (WT) responsiveness to preoperative chemotherapy (PC) using pre-therapy contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT).
Materials And Methods: A single-center database was reviewed for children <18 years diagnosed with WT and received PC between 2001 and 2021. Patients were excluded if pre- and post-PC CECT were not retrievable.

Objectives: Monitoring minimal residual disease (MRD) and timely intervention are effective strategies for preventing relapse after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in adult acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The gene, a pan-leukemia marker, can be used as an indicator for MRD monitoring in AML patients. Currently, there is no unified standard for the intervention timing or treatment threshold based on gene detection after transplantation.
