Concurrent chemoradiotherapy has proven to be more effective on patients with advanced cervical cancer than radiotherapy alone. Although cisplatin has been recommended to be the standard agent in chemotherapy, it has some limitations in clinical use because of its strong side effects. Moreover, the optimal chemotherapy regimen remains unclear.

FBXO31 is a member of F-box family which is involved in diverse biological functions and development of disease. Recent reports in breast cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma and ovarian cancer demonstrated inhibitory effect of FBXO31 on proliferation and tumorigenesis. However, the function of FBXO31 is not analyzed in lung cancer so far.

Elevated HMGB1-related interleukin-6 is associated with dynamic responses of monocytes in patients with active pulmonary tuberculosis.

Int J Clin Exp Pathol

March 2016

Guangdong Provincial Key Laboratory of Medical Molecular Diagnostics 1 Xincheng Road, Dongguan 523808, People's Republic of China ; Department of Clinical Immunology, Institute of Laboratory Medicine, Guangdong Medical College No. 1 Xincheng Road, Dongguan 523808, People's Republic of China.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigated the role of HMGB1 in patients with active pulmonary tuberculosis (APTB) by measuring its levels in plasma and sputum, along with various inflammatory cytokines and immune cells.
  • Results showed that APTB patients had significantly higher levels of HMGB1 and cytokines (IL-6, IL-10, and TNF-α) compared to healthy volunteers, indicating an association with inflammation.
  • The findings suggest that HMGB1 could serve as a potential biomarker for diagnosing and predicting the prognosis of APTB, reflecting the inflammatory state of monocytes in these patients.

Epithelioid angiomyolipoma (EAML) is a rare renal mesenchymal tumor with malignant potential and is frequently associated with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC). As metastasis of the tumor cells occur early, EAML is considered a potentially malignant tumor type and intrigues further research on it. Under the microscope, we could find the tumor was composed of atypical polygonal cells sheet mixed with classic angiomyolipoma (AML) components such as blood vessels with notable thick vascular walls, smooth muscle-like cells and adipocytes.
