Microsatellite‐stable (MSS) colorectal cancer (CRC) resists immunotherapy. PRMT5 inhibition enhances CPT‐11 sensitivity, inducing a PMS2‐deficient‐like state and cytosolic dsDNA release, which activates the cGAS‐STING pathway to promote anti‐tumor immunity. However, this combination therapy upregulates TIGIT expression on CD8+ T cells, and the addition

Towards a Multiphysics Model for Tumor Response to Combined-Hyperthermia-Radiotherapy Treatment [PDF]
We develop a multiphysics-based model to predict the response of localized tumors to combined-hyperthermia-radiotherapy (CHR) treatment. This procedure combines hyperthermia (tumor heating) with standard radiotherapy to improve efficacy of the overall treatment. In addition to directly killing tumor cells, tumor heating amends several parameters within

Pediatric extraspinal sacrococcygeal ependymoma (ESE): an Italian AIEOP experience of six cases and literature review [PDF]
Background: Primary pediatric extraspinal sacrococcygeal ependymoma (ESE) is a very rare disease, poorly described in literature, whose diagnostic, therapeutic, and follow-up approach is still controversial.

3D‐cultured renal cancer cells exhibit stem‐like phenotypes and are more efficient in generating bone metastases. Vitamin C treatment can suppress the development of bone metastasis. Single‐cell transcriptomic analysis reveals that vitamin C inhibits metastasis by inducing tumor cell cycle arrest, suppressing osteoclast differentiation, and reducing ...

Photon-Counting CT in Cancer Radiotherapy: Technological Advances and Clinical Benefits [PDF]
Photon-counting computed tomography (PCCT) marks a significant advancement over conventional energy-integrating detector (EID) CT systems. This review highlights PCCT's superior spatial and contrast resolution, reduced radiation dose, and multi-energy imaging capabilities, which address key challenges in radiotherapy, such as accurate tumor delineation,

In this work, a detection method is presented for the activity of plasma DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1), namely DNMT1 Identification by Variable Activity (DIVA). DIVA can detect plasma DNMT1 at levels as low as 10−7 U mL−1, also it successfully evaluated tumor burden and predicted the neoadjuvant therapy responses of breast cancer patients.

Cancer Vaccine Adjuvant Name Recognition from Biomedical Literature using Large Language Models [PDF]
Motivation: An adjuvant is a chemical incorporated into vaccines that enhances their efficacy by improving the immune response. Identifying adjuvant names from cancer vaccine studies is essential for furthering research and enhancing immunotherapies.
