High-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) is hallmarked by early onset of peritoneal dissemination, which distinguishes it from low-grade (LGSOC). Here, we describe the aggressive nature HGSOC ascitic tumor cells (ATCs) characterized integrin α5high (ITGA5high) ATCs, are prone to forming heterotypic spheroids with fibroblasts. We term these aggregates as metastatic units (MUs) in for their advantageous capacity and active involvement dissemination. Intriguingly, fibroblasts inside MUs support...

Objective To develop a gastric cancer (GC) risk prediction rule as an initial prescreening tool to identify individuals with high prior gastroscopy. Design This was nationwide multicentre cross-sectional study. Individuals aged 40–80 years who went hospitals for GC screening gastroscopy were recruited. Serum pepsinogen (PG) I, PG II, gastrin-17 (G-17) and anti- Helicobacter pylori IgG antibody concentrations tested endoscopy. Eligible participants (n=14 929) randomly assigned into the...

Hypoxia stimulates tumor angiogenesis by inducing the expression of angiogenic molecules. The negative regulators this process, however, are not well understood. Here, we report that hypoxia induced insulin-like growth factor binding protein-6 (IGFBP-6), a repressor, in human and rodent vascular endothelial cells (VECs) via hypoxia-inducible (HIF)-mediated mechanism. Addition IGFBP-6 to cultured VECs inhibited vitro. An mutant with at least 10,000-fold lower affinity for IGFs was an equally...

ABSTRACT Background Compared to colorectal cancer (CRC) in adults, CRC children is extremely rare. Although its incidence has increased recently, there a lack of clinical research on the disease. Inherited susceptibility syndromes (ICSS), group disorders which patients are predisposed wide range tumors as result pathogenic mutations genes their germ line, an important cause children. Delayed diagnosis due atypical presentation, well limited awareness ICSS among doctors, contributes poor...

This retrospective case series aimed to provide initial insights into the potential effectsof Gemcitabine (Gem), Nab-paclitaxel, Ifosfamide, and Cisplatin (Gem-TIP) combination therapy in children with relapsed/progressive extracranial malignant rhabdoid tumors (eMRTs). A review of patients treated Gem-TIP following relapse/progression was conducted. Radiologic responses were assessed using RECIST 1.1 criteria, supplemental imaging data provided for detailed evaluation. Details concurrent...

Mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP) is a leading cause of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP), accounting for 10–40% cases in children. In China, the high prevalence macrolide-resistant MP (MRMP) and recurrent epidemics place significant burden on healthcare system. Leveraging data from over 1.6 million cases, this study provides comprehensive analysis epidemiological characteristics across China. Seasonal patterns revealed three distinct transmission zones Transmission Zone 1 exhibited two annual...

Hypoxia-inducible factors 1–3 (HIF1–3) are transcription that regulate gene expression in response to hypoxia. Compared with our extensive understanding of HIF-1 and HIF-2, knowledge HIF-3 is limited. In this study, we characterized the zebrafish hif-3α determined its temporal spatial expression, physiological regulation, biological activity. We show chromosomal location, structure, protein structure similar mammalian orthologs. When tagged enhanced green fluorescent transfected into...

Genome editing by the well-established CRISPR/Cas9 technology has greatly facilitated our understanding of many biological processes. However, a complete whole-genome knockout for any species or model organism rarely been achieved. Here, we performed systematic all genes (1333) on Chromosome 1 in zebrafish, successfully mutated 1029 genes, and generated 1039 germline-transmissible alleles corresponding to 636 genes. Meanwhile, high-throughput bioinformatics analysis, found that sequence...

Abstract To better understand the molecular mechanisms of prostate cancer (PCA) dissemination and to develop new anti‐metastasis therapies, key regulatory molecules involved in PCA metastasis were identified two human androgen‐independent cell lines, highly metastatic 1E8‐H lowly 2B4‐L cells. Through 2‐DE MS analyses, 12 proteins with different expression levels lines identified. The following found be significantly up‐regulated cells compared cells: gp96 precursor, calreticulin vimentin...

IGFBP3 is a multi-functional protein that has IGF-dependent and IGF-independent actions in cultured cells. Here we show the IGF binding domain (IBD), nuclear localization signal (NLS) transactivation (TA) are conserved functional zebrafish Igfbp3. The vivo roles of these domains were investigated by expression Igfbp3 its mutants embryos. Igfbp3, NLS TA had equally strong dorsalizing effects. Human similar effects activities IBD IBD+NLS lower, but they still caused dorsalization. Thus, action...
