As an important member of the kindlin family, fermitin family member 1 (FERMT1) can interact with integrin and its aberrant expression involves multiple tumors. However, there are few systematic studies on in pancreatic carcinoma (PAAD). We used several public databases to analyze the expression level and clinicopathological characteristics of in PAAD. Meanwhile, the correlation between expression and diagnostic and prognostic value, methylation, potential biological function, immune infiltration, and sensitivity to chemotherapy drugs in PAAD patients were investigated. was significantly up-regulated in PAAD and correlated with T stage, and histologic grade. High expression was closely connected with poor prognosis and can be used to diagnose PAAD. Moreover, the methylation of six CpG sites of was linked to prognosis, and expression was significantly related to N6-methyladenosine (mA) modification. Functional enrichment analysis revealed that co-expression genes participated in diverse biological functions including necroptosis. In addition, the expression of was associated with immune cell infiltration and the expression of immune checkpoint molecules. Finally, overexpression may be sensitive to chemotherapy drugs such as Palbociclib, AM-5992 and TAE-226. can serve as a diagnostic and prognostic marker of PAAD, which is connected with immune cell infiltration and the modulation of mA and necroptosis.

Objective: Programmed Death-Ligand 1 (PD-L1) and Cytotoxic T Lymphocyte -Associated Antigen-4 (CTLA-4) are presently considered as prognostic markers and therapeutic targets in numerous human malignancies. The goal of this study was to determine whether PD-L1 and CTLA-4 might be used to predict patients' survival in Triple Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC).

Methods: This retrospective cohort study analyzed 100 primary TNBC cases that had surgical resection at the Oncology Center of Mansoura University (OCMU), Faculty of Medicine, Egypt.

Up to 90% of high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC) patients will develop resistance to platinum-based chemotherapy, posing substantial therapeutic challenges due to a lack of universally druggable targets. Leveraging BenevolentAI's AI-driven approach to target discovery, we screened potential AI-predicted therapeutic targets mapped to unapproved tool compounds in patient-derived 3D models. This identified TNIK, which is modulated by NCB-0846, as a novel target for platinum-resistant HGSC.
