The N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification serves as an essential epigenetic regulator in eukaryotic cells, playing a significant role tumorigenesis and cancer progression. However, the detailed biological functions underlying mechanisms of m6A regulation gastric (GC) are poorly understood. Our research revealed that demethylase ALKBH5 was markedly downregulated GC tissues, which associated with poor patient prognosis. Functional studies demonstrated suppressing expression enhanced cell...

The prognostic value of preoperative controlling nutritional status (CONUT) has been reported in many malignancies. In present study, we aimed to clarify the impact CONUT gastric cancer (GC) receiving curative resection and adjuvant chemotherapy. We retrospectively reviewed 697 consecutive patients undergoing surgery followed by chemotherapy for Stage II-III GC between November 2000 September 2012. Patients were classified into high (≥3) low (≤2) groups according receiver operating...

No antiangiogenic treatment is yet approved for extrapancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (NET). Surufatinib (HMPL-012, previously named sulfatinib) a small-molecule inhibitor targeting vascular endothelial growth factor receptors, fibroblast receptor 1 and colony-stimulating receptor. We conducted single-arm phase Ib/II study of surufatinib in advanced NETs.Patients with histologically well-differentiated, low or intermittent grade, inoperable metastatic NETs were enrolled into pancreatic NET...

Abstract: The aberrant expression of human microRNA-181a-1 (hsa-miR-181a) has been implicated in the pathogenesis various cancers, serving as an oncogene or a tumor suppressor. However, role hsa-miR-181a endometrial carcinoma (EC) and its clinical significance are unclear. This study aimed to search for molecular targets using bioinformatic tools then determine levels normal, hyperplasia, EC samples from humans. To predict hsa-miR-181a, ten different algorithms were used, including...

Abstract Accumulating evidence has demonstrated that the enhanced synaptic plasticity of nociceptive interneurons in spinal dorsal horn is basis central sensitization neuropathic pain. Our previous results sirtuin 1 (SIRT1), a nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+)-dependent deacetylase, alleviates pain type 2 diabetes mellitus rats. SIRT1 also been reported to regulate different brain neurons. However, role neurons remains unknown. In this study, we found diabetic (DNP) rats and db/db...

Abstract Although messenger RNA translation is tightly regulated to preserve protein synthesis and cellular homeostasis, chronic exposure interferon‐γ (IFN‐γ) in several cancers can lead tryptophan (Trp) shortage via the indoleamine‐2,3‐dioxygenase (IDO)‐ kynurenine pathway therefore promotes production of aberrant peptides by ribosomal frameshifting tryptophan‐to‐phenylalanine (W>F) codon reassignment events (substitutants) specifically at Trp codons. However, effect depletion on...

<div>Abstract<p><i>RAS</i> mutations are prevalent in leukemia, including at G12, G13, T58, Q61, K117, and A146. These often crucial for tumor initiation, maintenance, recurrence. Although much is known about RAS function the last 40 years, a substantial knowledge gap remains understanding mutation-specific biological activities of cancer approaches needed to target specific mutants effectively. The recent approval KRAS<sup>G12C</sup> inhibitors, adagrasib...

ABSTRACT Background Distinctive heterogeneity characterizes diffuse large B‐cell lymphoma (DLBCL), one of the most frequent types non‐Hodgkin's lymphoma. Mitochondria have been demonstrated to be closely involved in tumorigenesis and progression, particularly DLBCL. Objective The purposes this study were identify prognostic mitochondria‐related genes (MRGs) DLBCL, develop a risk model based on MRGs machine learning algorithms. Methods Transcriptome profiles clinical information obtained from...
