Abstract Purpose: Tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes represent the host immune response to cancer. CD4+CD25+FOXP3+ regulatory T cells (Tregs) suppress reaction. The aim of present study was investigate clinicopathologic significance and roles Tregs CD8+ during hepatocarcinogenesis. Experimental Design: We examined infiltration FOXP3+ in tumor stroma nontumorous liver parenchyma using 323 hepatic nodules including precursor lesions, early hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), advanced HCC, along with...

Abstract The use of primary patient-derived organoids for drug sensitivity and resistance testing could play an important role in precision cancer medicine. We developed expandable ovarian < 3 weeks; these captured the characteristics histological subtypes replicated mutational landscape tumours. Seven pairs (3 high-grade serous, 1 clear cell, endometrioid) original tumours shared 59.5% (36.1–73.1%) variants identified. Copy number variations were also similar among organoid that...

Patients hoping to preserve their fertility receive conservative treatment with high-dose medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) for well-differentiated endometrioid adenocarcinoma (EC) or atypical endometrial hyperplasia (AEH) . Such generally involves frequent intrauterine operations, including dilation and curettage (D&C) biopsy (EMB), which could result in endometritis, thinning, adhesion. In turn, any of these outcomes adversely affect implantation pregnancy development. The current study...

Uterine serous cancer (USC) comprises around 10% of all uterine cancers. However, USC accounts for approximately 40% deaths, which is attributed to tumor aggressiveness and limited effective treatment. Galectin 3 (Gal3) has been implicated in promoting aggressive features some malignancies. Gal3's role pathology lacking.

The preferential response to PARP inhibitors (PARPis) in BRCA-deficient and Schlafen 11 (SLFN11)-expressing ovarian cancers has been documented, yet the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unclear. As accumulation of single-strand DNA (ssDNA) gaps behind replication forks is key for lethality effect PARPis, we investigated combined effects SLFN11 expression BRCA deficiency on PARPi sensitivity ssDNA gap formation human cancer cells. PARPis increased chromatin-bound RPA2 SLFN11-expressing...

ABSTRACT Background Borderline ovarian tumors (BOTs) differ from carcinomas in their clinical presentation and behavior, yet molecular characteristics remain poorly understood. This study aims to address this gap by integrating whole‐exome sequencing (WES) RNA (RNA‐seq) compare BOTs with high‐grade serous carcinoma (HGSC), endometrioid (EC), clear‐cell (CCC). Objective To elucidate the features of evaluate similarities differences comparison HGSC, EC, CCC. Methods The analyzed 44 tumor...

Hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome (HBOC) is traditionally associated with mutations in the BRCA1 BRCA2 genes, predominantly impacting breast, ovarian, pancreatic, prostate cancers. However, recent research suggests that these may also predispose carriers to a broader spectrum of malignancies, including biliary tract, cervical, colorectal, endometrial, esophageal, gastric This review presents findings from extensive datasets, significant study nationwide Japanese biobank examined...

High-grade serous carcinoma (HGSC), the most aggressive subtype of epithelial ovarian cancer, is strongly associated with hereditary breast and cancer (HBOC) syndrome primarily linked to germline BRCA1/2 pathogenic variants (PVs). The cumulative risks by age 70 years are 40% 18% for carriers BRCA1 BRCA2 PVs, respectively. Risk-reducing salpingo-oophorectomy (RRSO) a recommended preventive strategy that reduces risk more than 80% may improve overall survival. However, surgical menopause after...
