The role of UPR‐related long noncoding RNAs in development of endocrine resistance in breast cancer
Abstract Breast cancer patients who express estrogen receptor α (ER) typically receive endocrine therapy as a first‐line treatment. Most ER‐positive breast cancer patients initially respond to endocrine therapy, but up to 40% of patients develop resistance over time, and the main mechanism is aberrant activation of ER signaling pathways.

Authentication of newly established human esophageal squamous cell carcinoma cell line (YM-1) using short tandem repeat (STR) profiling method [PDF]
Cross-contamination during or early after establishment of a new cell line could result in the worldwide spread of a misidentified cell line. Therefore, newly established cell lines need to be authenticated by a reference standard method.

Impact of Radiotherapy, Chemotherapy and Surgery in Multimodal Treatment of Locally Advanced Esophageal Cancer [PDF]
Objectives: It was the aim of this study to assess our institutional experience with definitive chemoradiation (CRT) versus induction chemotherapy followed by CRT with or without surgery (C-CRT/S) in esophageal cancer.

Integrative omics approaches to uncover liquid‐based cancer‐predicting biomarkers in Lynch syndrome
What's New? Lynch syndrome (LS) significantly increases lifetime cancer risk, necessitating innovative approaches for risk stratification. Current risk assessment methods, however, fail to integrate data from different biological systems, which may be influenced by lifestyle factors.

Body height and the excess cancer risk in men
What's New? In cancers that affect both sexes, men usually have a higher risk than women. While this is often attributed to behavioral factors, such as exposure to environmental carcinogens, there may be an intrinsic biological mechanism involved. Tall stature has been associated with increased cancer risk.

Barrett's Esophageal Adenocarcinoma with Neuroendocrine Cell Carcinoma Treated by Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection: A Case Report and Literature Review. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Barrett's esophageal adenocarcinoma (BEA) with neuroendocrine cell carcinoma (NEC) is a rare disease with a poor prognosis. We report a case of BEA with NEC treated by endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) with en bloc resection and long‐term survival was achieved without additional treatment.

RETRACTED ARTICLE: STMN-1 is a potential marker of lymph node metastasis in distal esophageal adenocarcinomas and silencing its expression can reverse malignant phenotype of tumor cells [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Distal esophageal adenocarcinoma is a highly aggressive neoplasm. Despite advances in diagnosis and therapy, the prognosis is still poor. Stathmin (STMN-1) is a ubiquitously expressed microtubule destabilizing phosphoprotein.

P66shc and its downstream Eps8 and Rac1 proteins are upregulated in esophageal cancers
Members of Shc (src homology and collagen homology) family, p46shc, p52shc, p66shc have known to be related to cell proliferation and carcinogenesis.

What's New? Patients with esophageal or gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) cancer with residual disease after treatment with neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT) and resection frequently experience poor survival. Improvements in outcome, however, may be possible using adjuvant treatment with nivolumab.
