Introduction: Gliomas have emerged as the predominant brain tumor type in recent decades, yet the exploration of non-apoptotic cell death regulated by the pan-optosome complex, known as pan-apoptosis, remains largely unexplored in this context. This study aims to illuminate the molecular properties of pan-apoptosis-related genes in glioma patients, classifying them and developing a signature using machine learning techniques.
Methods: The prognostic significance, mutation features, immunological characteristics, and pharmaceutical prediction performance of this signature were comprehensively investigated. Furthermore, GPX8, a gene of interest, was extensively examined for its prognostic value, immunological characteristics, medication prediction performance, and immunotherapy prediction potential.
Results: Experimental techniques such as CCK-8, Transwell, and EdU investigations revealed that GPX8 acts as a tumor accelerator in gliomas. At the single-cell RNA sequencing level, GPX8 appeared to facilitate cell contact between tumor cells and macrophages, potentially enhancing microglial migration.
Conclusions: The incorporation of pan-apoptosis-related features shows promising potential for clinical applications in predicting tumor progression and advancing immunotherapeutic strategies. However, further in vitro and in vivo investigations are necessary to validate the tumorigenic and immunogenic processes associated with GPX8 in gliomas.

Background: Metabolic pathways are known to significantly impact the development and advancement of lung cancer. This study sought to establish a signature related to butyrate metabolism that is specifically linked to lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD).
Methods: For the purpose of identifying butyrate metabolism-related differentially expressed genes (BMR-DEGs) in the TCGA-LUAD dataset, we introduced transcriptome data.

Background: Bronchiectasis is a disease with a global impact, but most published data come from high-income countries. We aimed to describe the clinical characteristics of patients with bronchiectasis in China.
Methods: The Chinese Bronchiectasis Registry (BE-China) is a prospective, observational cohort enrolling patients from 111 hospitals in China.

Background: The pathophysiology of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and diabetes mellitus (DM) is still unknown, despite clinical reports linking the two conditions. After investigating potential roles for DM-related genes in the pathophysiology of OSA, our goal is to investigate the molecular significance of the condition. Machine learning is a useful approach to understanding complex gene expression data to find biomarkers for the diagnosis of OSA.

Background: Therapeutic outcomes for patients infected by genetically divergent HIV-1/O are not well-known due to scarce data and the lack of an appropriate comparison with patients infected by pandemic HIV-1/M. We aimed to compare the immunological and virological response to cART between HIV-1/O and HIV-1/M patients followed in France.
Methods: All naïve HIV-1/O subjects initiating cART in France in ANRS-ORIVAO study were compared to naïve HIV-1/M subjects initiating cART in ANRS-COPANA cohort.
