  • Prostate cancer (PCa) is the most common cancer in men, but there are few reliable ways to predict outcomes and guide treatments.
  • Researchers conducted proteomic profiling on 918 tissue samples from 306 Chinese PCa patients, identifying over 10,000 proteins and classifying PCa into three distinct molecular subtypes.
  • They developed a 16-protein panel that predicts biochemical recurrence (BCR) in PCa patients better than existing methods, and found that knocking out two proteins from this panel may inhibit cancer cell growth and spread, presenting potential new treatment strategies.

Article Abstract

Prostate cancer (PCa) is the most common malignant tumor in men. Currently, there are few prognosis indicators for predicting PCa outcomes and guiding treatments. Here, we perform comprehensive proteomic profiling of 918 tissue specimens from 306 Chinese patients with PCa using data-independent acquisition mass spectrometry (DIA-MS). We identify over 10,000 proteins and define three molecular subtypes of PCa with significant clinical and proteomic differences. We develop a 16-protein panel that effectively predicts biochemical recurrence (BCR) for patients with PCa, which is validated in six published datasets and one additional 99-biopsy-sample cohort by targeted proteomics. Interestingly, this 16-protein panel effectively predicts BCR across different International Society of Urological Pathology (ISUP) grades and pathological stages and outperforms the D'Amico risk classification system in BCR prediction. Furthermore, double knockout of NUDT5 and SEPTIN8, two components from the 16-protein panel, significantly suppresses the PCa cells to proliferate, invade, and migrate, suggesting the combination of NUDT5 and SEPTIN8 may provide new approaches for PCa treatment.

Glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK-3β) has been identified to promote inflammation and its inhibitors have also been proven to treat some inflammatory mediated diseases in animal models. Non-ATP competitive inhibitors inherently have better therapeutical value due to their higher specificity than ATP competitive ones. In this paper, we designed and synthesized a series of new BTZ derivatives as non-ATP competitive GSK-3β inhibitors.

Objectives: Cytokines have an important role in orchestrating the pathophysiology in autoimmune thyroid disease. The aim of the current study was to analyse the expression of interleukin (IL)-14 and IL-16 in the thyroid tissue of patients with Graves' disease (GD), Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT) or multinodular goitre (MNG) and in that of normal individuals, in patients' intrathyroidal CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells, and in patient and normal cultured thyroid follicular cells.

Methods: The expression of IL-14 and IL-16 mRNA and protein was investigated using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) amplification, and Western blotting and ELISAs, respectively.

Genetic diversity, population structure and marker trait associations for seed quality traits in cotton (Gossypium hirsutum).

Cottonseed contains 16% seed oil and 23% seed protein by weight. High levels of palmitic acid provides a degree of stability to the oil, while the presence of bound gossypol in proteins considerably changes their properties, including their biological value. This study uses genetic principles to identify genomic regions associated with seed oil, protein and fibre content in upland cotton cultivars.

Background: The prognosis for thyroid cancer differs between metastatic and non-metastatic cases. To identify biomarkers useful for thyroid cancer diagnosis and to establish a marker panel for the early detection of metastatic thyroid carcinoma, this study compared histomorphological features and biomarker expression profiles in thyroid carcinomas according to pathological diagnoses.

Patients And Methods: Thyroid carcinoma samples were obtained from 113 consecutive patients who underwent resection at multiple centers between 2001 and 2008.
