Emerging insights into , and mutations: implications for immunotherapy in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer.

Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have become an established treatment option for patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, the efficacy of single-agent immunotherapy as well as in combination with chemotherapy seems to be dependent on the presence of molecular abnormalities in some genes-serine/threonine kinase 11 (), Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 () and Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog () among them. The gene is a critical regulator of the cellular response to oxidative stress and electrophilic stress, thus playing a pivotal role in maintaining cellular homeostasis.

Effects of transient change in temperature by daki warm treatment on the growth of bacteria during kimoto-style seed mash preparation.

Daki warm treatment (daki-ire) is performed during the process of seed mash preparation in the brewing of Japanese sake in order to promote the saccharification of rice by koji enzyme and to enhance the growth of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Although it is important to control the growth of lactic acid bacteria in the preparation of kimoto-style seed mash (traditional sake-brewing method), it has not been known whether the transient increase in the temperature and/or appropriate temperature zone produced by daki-ire influences the growth of bacteria. A temperature increase generally helps bacterial growth, but we have found no published investigation of the influence of temperature changes in daki-ire on bacterial growth during the kimoto-style seed mash preparation process.

Loss of Sirtuin 7 impairs cell motility and proliferation and enhances S-phase cell arrest after 5-fluorouracil treatment in head and neck cancer.
