Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) patients with elevated breast cancer susceptibility gene 1 (BRCA1) expression had markedly worse overall survival and progression-free survival compared to those with reduced BRCA1 levels. In contrast, BRCA1 expression did not correlate with survival outcomes in squamous cell carcinoma patients. The overexpression of BRCA1 was an independent risk factor for LUAD and was indicative of an immune-suppressive tumor microenvironment.

Synthetic lethality approaches in BRCA1/2-mutated cancers have focused on poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors, which are subject to high rates of innate or acquired resistance in patients. Here, we used CRISPR/Cas9-based screening to identify DNA Ligase I (LIG1) as a novel target for synthetic lethality in BRCA1-mutated cancers. Publicly available data supported LIG1 hyperdependence of BRCA1-mutant cells across a variety of breast and ovarian cancer cell lines.

To investigate the clinicopathological characteristics of solid, endometrial-like and transitional (SET) cell growth subtype in high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSC). Clinical data of 25 cases of HGSC-SET were collected from January 2020 to March 2024 at the Affiliated Suzhou Hospital of Nanjing Medical University, and their histological features were analyzed. Immunohistochemical stains were used to analyze the expression of ER, PR, PAX8, WT-1, p16, p53 and Ki-67.

Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have revolutionized treatment for several tumor indications without demonstrated benefit for ovarian cancer patients. To improve the therapeutic ratio of ICIs in ovarian cancer patients, several different clinical trials are testing combinations with poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors. Comparing the immunomodulatory effects of clinically advanced PARP inhibitors may help to identify the best partner to combine with ICIs.

Background: Regeneration is the preferred approach to restore the structure and function after tissue damage. Rapid proliferation of cells over the site of damage is integral to the process of regeneration. However, even subtle mutations in proliferating cells may cause detrimental effects by eliciting abnormal differentiation.
