Hyponatremia as a “red flag” for concurrent meningitis in pulmonary cryptococcosis: a risk stratification model

open access: yesBMC Neurology
Background Pulmonary cryptococcosis (PC) is increasingly diagnosed in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-negative and apparently immunocompetent individuals.

Lung Diseases in the Elderly [PDF]

open access: yesRespiration, 1998
Accessible online at: http://BioMedNet.com/karger In the present issue of Respiration, Quadrelli and Roncoroni [1] compare characteristics of asthma between 99 younger patients and 50 elderly asthmatics. Their results suggest that the severity of asthma increases with age and that the increase in severity is related to the duration of the disease ...

USP29‐regulated noncanonical stabilization of the hypoxia‐inducible factor‐α in aggressive prostate cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We identify USP29 as the only DUB mirroring CA9 expression, a marker of hypoxia and HIF pathway activation associated with PCA aggressiveness. USP29 stabilizes HIF‐1α and HIF‐2α via a noncanonical mechanism that is independent of PHD/pVHL activity yet relies on proteasomal regulation, establishing USP29 as a previously unrecognized regulator of hypoxic

MITF maintains genome stability in nonmelanocyte lineages

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
MITF is essential for melanocyte survival and acts as an oncogene in 10%–20% of melanomas. We show that MITF depletion causes genome instability in nonmelanocytic cells, leading to LATS2‐mediated P53 activation, cell cycle arrest, and apoptosis. This study highlights the role of MITF as a genome maintenance factor beyond the melanocyte lineage. Created

Diagnostic Utility of Cyfra 21-1 and Cea Assays in Pericardial Fluid for the Recognition of Neoplastic Pericarditis

open access: yesThe International Journal of Biological Markers, 2005
A positive cytology result in pericardial fluid is the gold standard for recognition of malignant pericardial effusion. Unfortunately, in 30–50% of patients with malignant pericardial effusion cytological examination of the pericardial fluid is negative.

Oncogenic DMTF1β promotes cancer cell motility by regulating autophagy through ULK1 stabilization

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
In the current study, we demonstrate that the oncogene DMTF1β regulates ULK1 stability by reducing its proteasomal degradation in cancer cells. This stabilization enables ULK1 to induce autophagy, which in turn facilitates cancer cell migration. Consequently, reduced DMTF1β levels lead to decreased autophagy and impaired cancer cell migration.

Lung Cancer and Interstitial Lung Diseases

open access: yesCancers
Lung cancer continues to be one of the leading causes of cancer-related death worldwide. There is evidence of a complex interplay between lung cancer and interstitial lung disease (ILD), affecting disease progression, management strategies, and patient outcomes. Both conditions develop as the result of common risk factors such as smoking, environmental

Tumor B‐cell infiltration in platinum‐treated advanced muscle‐invasive urothelial carcinoma

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Bladder tumors with higher pretreatment memory B‐cell infiltration were linked to longer survival after cisplatin chemotherapy, but not carboplatin. These tumors also showed more organized immune structures (tertiary lymphoid structures) and a shared pro‐inflammatory B‐cell‐rich community, suggesting that memory B cells may help identify patients most ...

Neuron-Specific Enolase in Non-Neoplastic Lung Diseases, a Marker of Hypoxemia?

open access: yesThe International Journal of Biological Markers, 1998
Neuron-specific enolase (NSE) is a glycolytic enzyme localized within neuronal and neuroendocrine tissues. Serum NSE is widely used as a marker of neuroendocrine tumors.
