Background Noninvasive stool-based DNA methylation testing emerges as a new approach for detecting colorectal cancer (CRC). However, its feasibility for early detection of CRC and precancerous lesions in the Chinese population remains inconclusive. Methods In this study, we establish a possibilities screening method (sDNA-FOBT) for detecting CRC and precancerous lesions (hyperplastic polyps [HP] and adenomas [AD]) and evaluate its detection performance in the Chinese population. This method combined a molecular assay of DNA methylation markers (BMP3, NDRG4, and SDC2) with the human hemoglobin test (FOBT) in stool samples. Results The sensitivity of sDNA-FOBT was 85.42% for CRC, 85.71% for AD, and 28.21% for HP, respectively, at the specificity of 92%. The diagnostic efficacy of sDNA-FOBT for detecting CRC and precancerous lesions was significantly higher than FOBT alone (sensitivity 61.70% vs. 51.06%, P50 y (62.34% vs 54.55%, P less then 0.05). Conclusion Our results demonstrate that sDNA-FOBT is a promising method for screening CRC and precancerous lesions in the Chinese population. Further studies are required to validate the results in a larger sample capacity.Immunotherapies, such as monoclonal antibody therapy and checkpoint inhibitor therapy, have shown inspiring clinical effects for the treatment of cancer. Chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cells therapy was an efficacious therapeutic approach treating hematological malignancies and encouraging results have been achieved. Three kinds of CAR-T cell therapies, Kymriah (tisagenlecleucel), Yescarta (axicabtagene ciloleucel), were approved for clinical application in 2017 and Tecartus (brexucabtagene autoleucel) was approved in 2020. Despite some progress have been made in treating multiple hematologic tumors, threats still remain for the application of CAR-T cell therapy considering its toxicities and gaps in knowledge. GC376 To further comprehend present research status and trends, the review concentrates on CAR-T technologies, applications, adverse effects and safety measures about CAR-T cell therapy in hematological neoplasms. We believe that CAR-T cell therapy will exhibit superior safety and efficacy in the future and have potential to be a mainstream therapeutic choice for the elimination of hematologic tumor.Background TRIM37 (Tripartite Motif Containing 37) is an E3 ubiquitin ligase for histone H2A and inhibits transcription in several genes. However, it is not known whether it plays a role in gastric cancer (GC). In this study, we tested whether TRIM37 acts as a cancer-promoting factor by being overexpressed in GC. Methods We analyzed GC cell lines and 124 primary tumors, which were curatively resected in our hospital between 2001 and 2003. Results Overexpression of the TRIM37 protein was detected in almost all GC cell lines and GC samples (76 out of 124 cases) and was significantly correlated with lymphatic and venous invasion, advanced T-Stage, N-Stage, histology and high recurrence rate. Patients with TRIM37 overexpressing tumors had a worse survival rate than those with non-expressing tumors (P=0.0057). Moreover, TRIM37 positivity was identified as an independent factor predicting worse outcomes (P=0.018, Hazard ratio 3.41). The apoptotic cell analysis showed that the knockdown of TRIM37 increased apoptosis in comparison with the control. In TRIM37 overexpressing GC cells, knockdown of TRIM37 suppressed the migration and invasion. Conclusions TRIM37 plays a crucial role in tumor malignant potential through its overexpression and highlight its usefulness as a prognostic factor and potential therapeutic target in GC.Purpose To determine the prognostic significance of the pre-operative lymphocyte-to-monocyte (LMR) in patients with bladder cancer (BCa) who underwent radical cystectomy (RC), and to assess its prognostic benefit compared to models relying solely on clinicopathological factors. Materials and Methods A retrospective analysis of the 342 BCa patients undergoing RC at our institution from 2004 to 2017 was conducted to assess LMR prognostic significance. Overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) were assessed using the Kaplan-Meier method. Cox regression models identified risk factors for survival outcomes. Two new models were developed based on basal models to predict OS and CSS at 1, 3, and 5 years after RC. The accuracy of the new models was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic curves as well as the concordance index. We also conducted decision curve analysis (DCA) to assess their net benefit. Results An association between excellent long-term patient survival outcomes and higher LMRecision making.Purpose To develop and to validate a risk-predicted nomogram for downgrading Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) category 4a breast lesions. Patients and Methods We enrolled 680 patients with breast lesions that were diagnosed as BI-RADS category 4a by conventional ultrasound from December 2018 to June 2019. All 4a lesions were randomly divided into development and validation groups at the ratio of 31. In the development group consisting of 499 cases, the multiple clinical and ultrasound predicted factors were extracted, and dual-predicted nomograms were constructed by multivariable logistic regression analysis, named clinical nomogram and ultrasound nomogram, respectively. Patients were twice classified as either "high risk" or "low risk" in the two nomograms. The performance of these dual nomograms was assessed by an independent validation group of 181 cases. Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve and diagnostic value were calculated to evaluate the applicability of the new model. Resuccuracy, which is useful for decreasing the rate of invasive examinations and surgery.Our previous study showed that heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein F (hnRNP-F) could induce epithelial-mesenchymal transition and metastasis in bladder cancer (BC), however, the role and mechanism of hnRNP-F in mediating the proliferative ability of BC cells remain unclear. HnRNP-F promoted the proliferation of BC cells by using BC cell lines and cell counting kit-8 (CCK8), colony formation and flow cytometry assays in vitro. Furthermore, the association of hnRNP-F with the phosphoinositide 3‑kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (AKT) signalling pathway was confirmed by western blotting after bioinformatic analysis. HnRNP-F expression was significantly decreased by treatment with the PI3K/AKT signalling pathway inhibitor LY294002, whereas hnRNP-F knockdown did not significantly affect PI3K or AKT expression, suggesting that hnRNP-F is likely a downstream target of the PI3K/AKT pathway. Forkhead box O1 (FOXO1) is a molecule downstream of PI3K/AKT and can be inhibited by phosphorylation. In addition, chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) and luciferase reporter assays indicated that FOXO1 expression was negatively correlated with hnRNP-F expression as FOXO1 was found to bind to the promoter region of hnRNP-F mRNA and inhibit its transcription.
