Purpose: In patients with metastatic prostate cancer (mPC), ATM and BRCA2 mutations dictate differences in PARPi inhibitor response and other therapies. We interrogated the molecular features of ATM- and BRCA2-mutated mPC to explain the divergent clinical outcomes and inform future treatment decisions.
Experimental Design: We examined a novel set of 1,187 mPCs after excluding microsatellite-instable (MSI) tumors.

Gene behavior is governed by activity of other genes in an ecosystem as well as context-specific cues including cell type, microenvironment, and prior exposure to therapy. Here, we developed the Algorithm for Linking Activity Networks (ALAN) to compare gene behavior purely based on patient -omic data. The types of gene behaviors identifiable by ALAN include co-regulators of a signaling pathway, protein-protein interactions, or any set of genes that function similarly.

B7-H3 (CD276) is an immune checkpoint overexpressed in prostate cancer with minimal expression in normal tissues and associated with poor prognosis, making it an excellent therapy target. We interrogated B7-H3 expression and its regulation in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). We found greater expression of B7-H3 transcript relative to other immunotherapy targets (CTLA-4, PD-L1/2), including in tumors that lacked expression of prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA).

Background: Sutures can tear through thin skin, especially in the elderly. To reinforce thin skin, several materials have been suggested through which sutures may be placed.
Objective: To evaluate the relative tear-through resistance to suture provided by various materials applied to a skin substitute.

Background: Patients with hypertension in the community frequently fail to meet treatment goals. The optimal way to organize and deliver care to hypertensive patients has not been clearly identified. The powerful on-board computing capacity of mobile devices, along with the unique relationship individuals have with newer technologies, suggests that they have the potential to influence behaviour.
