Purpose: The purpose of this article was to provide an overview of syndromic gliomas.
Design: The authors conducted a nonsystematic literature review.
Results: Cancer predisposition syndromes (CPSs) are genetic conditions that increase one's risk for certain types of cancer compared with the general population. Syndromes that can predispose one to developing gliomas include neurofibromatosis, Li-Fraumeni syndrome, Lynch syndrome, and tuberous sclerosis complex. The standard treatment for sporadic glioma may involve resection, radiation therapy, and/or alkylating chemotherapy. However, DNA-damaging approaches, such as radiation and alkylating agents, may increase the risk of secondary malignancies and other complications in patients with CPSs. In some cases, depending on genetic aberrations, targeted therapies or immunotherapeutic approaches may be considered. Data on clinical characteristics, therapeutic strategies, and prognosis of syndromic gliomas remain limited.
Conclusion: In this review, we provide an overview of syndromic gliomas with a focus on management for patients with CPSs and the role of novel treatments that can be considered.

Treatment for castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) primarily involves the suppression of androgen receptor (AR) activity using androgen receptor signaling inhibitors (ARSIs). While ARSIs have extended patient survival, resistance inevitably develops. Mechanisms of resistance include genomic aberrations at the AR locus that reactivate AR signaling, or lineage plasticity that drives emergence of AR-independent phenotypes.

Despite significant progress in the field of human breast cancer research and treatment, there is a consistent increase in the incidence rate of 0.5 percent annually, posing challenges in the development of effective novel therapeutic strategies. The failure rate of drugs in clinical trials stands at approximately 95%, primarily attributed to the limitations and lack of reliability of existing preclinical models, such as mice, which do not mimic human tumor biology.

Thioredoxin-interacting protein (TXNIP), as a pivotal protein in the cellular stress response, plays a significant role in the progression of diabetic nephropathy (DN). Consequently, therapeutic strategies aimed at targeting TXNIP may offer novel interventions for patients with DN. Our study is to explore the therapeutic potential of targeting TXNIP in mitigating renal tubular injury induced by hyperglycemia.

Olfactory dysfunction (OD) can have serious consequences as it hinders individuals from detecting important warning signals like smoke, spoiled food, and gas leaks. This can significantly impact their nutritional status, eating satisfaction, and overall quality of life. Allergic rhinitis (AR) is a common disease that greatly affects the quality of life and can lead to a decrease, distortion, or complete loss of olfactory ability.
