Association of CDH1 Germline Variants and Colon Polyp Phenotypes in Patients With Hereditary Diffuse Gastric Cancer

open access: yesGastro Hep Advances, 2023
Background and Aims: Germline CDH1 variants resulting in E-cadherin loss of function result in an increased risk of diffuse type gastric cancer and lobular type breast cancer.

The calcium-sensing receptor as a regulator of cellular fate in normal and pathological conditions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) belongs to the evolutionarily conserved family of plasma membrane G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). Early studies identified an essential role for the CaSR in systemic calcium homeostasis through its ability to ...

The Caenorhabditis elegans DPF‐3 and human DPP4 have tripeptidyl peptidase activity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPPIV) family comprises serine proteases classically defined by their ability to remove dipeptides from the N‐termini of substrates, a feature that gave the family its name. Here, we report the discovery of a previously unrecognized tripeptidyl peptidase activity in DPPIV family members from two different species.

Ontological analyses reveal clinically-significant clear cell renal cell carcinoma subtypes with convergent evolutionary trajectories into an aggressive typeResearch in context

open access: yesEBioMedicine, 2020
Background: Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is a particularly challenging tumor type because of its extensive phenotypic variability as well as intra-tumoral heterogeneity (ITH).

Efficacy and safety of Androgen Deprivation Therapy (ADT) combined with modified docetaxel chemotherapy versus ADT combined with standard docetaxel chemotherapy in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer: study protocol for a multicentre prospective randomized controlled trial

open access: yesBMC Cancer, 2022
Background Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) combined with docetaxel chemotherapy is the standard treatment for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) patients.

AffinityNet: semi-supervised few-shot learning for disease type prediction

open access: yes, 2018
While deep learning has achieved great success in computer vision and many other fields, currently it does not work very well on patient genomic data with the "big p, small N" problem (i.e., a relatively small number of samples with high-dimensional ...

The role and implications of mammalian cellular circadian entrainment

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
At their most fundamental level, mammalian circadian rhythms occur inside every individual cell. To tell the correct time, cells must align (or ‘entrain’) their circadian rhythm to the external environment. In this review, we highlight how cells entrain to the major circadian cues of light, feeding and temperature, and the implications this has for our

Metabolomic landscape of renal cell carcinoma in von Hippel-Lindau syndrome in a Chinese cohort

open access: yesiScience
Summary: Von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) syndrome is a rare autosomal dominant disorder, where renal cell carcinoma (RCC) serves as a significant cause of mortality. We collected peripheral blood from 61 VHL-RCC patients and 31 healthy individuals, along with 19

Selective In Vitro Propagation of Nephron Progenitors Derived from Embryos and Pluripotent Stem Cells

open access: yesCell Reports, 2016
Nephron progenitors in the embryonic kidney propagate while generating differentiated nephrons. However, in mice, the progenitors terminally differentiate shortly after birth.

Prospect of acromegaly therapy: molecular mechanism of clinical drugs octreotide and paltusotine

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Somatostatin receptor 2 (SSTR2) represents a therapeutic target of neuroendocrine tumors. Here, authors report two structures of SSTR2 bound to peptide octreotide and small molecule paltusotine, revealing the basis subtype selectivity and signal bias ...
