Multimodal integration of blood RNA and ctDNA reflects response to immunotherapy in metastatic urothelial cancer.
JCI Insight
January 2025
Medical Oncology Department, Research Institute for Medical Innovation, Radboud University Medical Center, Nijmegen, Netherlands.
Background: Previously, we demonstrated that changes in circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) are promising biomarkers for early response prediction (ERP) to immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) in metastatic urothelial cancer (mUC). In this study, we investigated the value of whole blood immunotranscriptomics for ERP-ICI and integrated both biomarkers into a multimodal model to boost accuracy.
Methods: Blood samples of 93 patients were collected at baseline and after 2-6 weeks of ICI for ctDNA (N=88) and immunotranscriptome (N=79) analyses.
Urinary DNA Methylation Test for Bladder Cancer Diagnosis.
JAMA Oncol
January 2025
Department of Urology, Seoul National University Hospital, Seoul, Republic of Korea.
Importance: An accurate noninvasive biomarker test is needed for the early diagnosis of bladder cancer.
Objective: To evaluate the performance of a urinary DNA methylation test (PENK methylation) and compare its diagnostic accuracy with that of the nuclear matrix protein 22 (NMP22) test or urine cytology test.
Design, Setting, And Participants: In this prospective multicenter study at 10 sites in the Republic of Korea, individuals 40 years and older with hematuria undergoing cystoscopy within 3 months between March 11, 2022, and May 30, 2024, participated.
Bio-nanopore technology for biomolecules detection.
Adv Biotechnol (Singap)
December 2024
School of Food Science and Technology, State Key Laboratory of Food Science and Resources, Jiangnan University, Wuxi, 214122, Jiangsu, China.
Bio-nanopore technology holds great promise in biomacromolecule detection, with its high throughput and low cost positioning it as an ideal detection tool. This technology employs a unique detection mechanism that utilizes nanoscale pores to rapidly and sensitively convert biological molecules interactions into electrical signals, enabling real-time, single-molecule detection with exceptional sensitivity. This review focuses on the latest advancements in this technology across various domains, including DNA and RNA sequencing, protein detection, and small molecule identification.

J Assist Reprod Genet
January 2025
Ovarian Physiopathology Studies Laboratory, Institute of Experimental Biology and Medicine (IByME) - CONICET, Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the long-term impact of mild COVID-19 infection and COVID-19 vaccination on ovarian function in patients undergoing assisted reproductive technology (ART). Specifically, we assessed ovarian outcomes between 9 and 18 months post-infection and investigated the effects of COVID-19 vaccines (inactivated virus and adenovirus) on reproductive parameters.
Methods: The study included two objectives: (a) examining ovarian function in post-COVID-19 patients (9-18 months post-infection) compared to a control group and (b) comparing reproductive outcomes in vaccinated versus unvaccinated patients.
RNA structure: implications in viral infections and neurodegenerative diseases.
Adv Biotechnol (Singap)
