Intratumor heterogeneity (ITH) is a constant evolutionary event in all malignant tumors, and clear cell renal cell carcinoma (CCRCC) is a paradigmatic example. ITH is responsible for most therapeutic failures in the era of precision oncology, so its precise detection remains a must in modern medicine. Unfortunately, classic sampling protocols do not resolve the problem as expected and several strategies have been being implemented in recent years to improve such detection. Basically, multisite tumor sampling (MSTS) and the homogenization of the residual tumor tissue are on display. A next step of the MSTS strategy considering the recently discovered patterns of ITH regionalization is presented here, the so-called personalized MSTS (pMSTS). This modification consists of paying more attention to sample the tumor periphery since it is this area with maximum levels of ITH.

Among contributors to diffusible signaling are portal systems which join two capillary beds through connecting veins. Portal systems allow diffusible signals to be transported in high concentrations directly from one capillary bed to the other without dilution in the systemic circulation. Two portal systems have been identified in the brain.

Gastrointestinal (GI) colonization by methicillin-resistant (MRSA) is associated with a high risk of transmission and invasive disease in vulnerable populations. The immune and microbial factors that permit GI colonization remain unknown. Male sex is correlated with enhanced nasal carriage, skin and soft tissue infections, and bacterial sepsis.

is the etiologic agent of invasive aspergillosis, a life- threatening fungal pneumonia that is initiated by the inhalation of conidia (spores) into the lung. If the conidia are not cleared, they secrete large quantities of hydrolytic enzymes and toxins as they grow, resulting in extensive damage to pulmonary tissue. Stromal fibroblasts are central responders to tissue damage in many organs, but their functional response to pulmonary injury caused by has not been explored.

The progression of tumors has been demonstrated to have a strong correlation with ferroptosis. Bis(4-hydroxy-3,5-dimethylphenyl) sulfone (TMBPS) has been shown to effectively inhibit the proliferation of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), but its underlying mechanism is not clear. In this study, ferrostatin-1 (Fer-1) was employed to explore whether the death of HCC cells caused by TMBPS is related to ferroptosis.
