ABSTRACT Malignant mesothelioma (MM) is a rare yet aggressive neoplasm that arises from mesothelial cells lining the thoracic and abdominal cavities, the pericardium, and the tunica testis. Characterized by rapid progression, high invasiveness, and a poor prognosis, MM poses significant clinical challenges. SMARCB1, also referred to as INI‐1, hSNF5, or

What's New? Lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC) is more aggressive than lung adenocarcinoma, and is most often diagnosed at an advanced stage. Here, the authors evaluated gene expression data from LUSC tumors and came up with gene signatures for 34 genetic abnormalities whose expression changes throughout different precancerous stages. Several of these

MONITORING OF MESOTHELIOMA IN SOUTHERN BRAZIL: A SITUATION TO BE INVESTIGATED
Brazil is one of the world’s greatest producers of chrysotile, but the occurrence of mesothelioma is apparently low. However, identification of cases of mesothelioma is difficult due to errors of diagnosis and registries of deaths.

Hypervision Proton Surgery: The Future Direction of Proton Therapy
ABSTRACT Proton beams provide unique physical advantages characterized by a low entrance dose, negligible exit dose, and a sharp Bragg peak, which enable superior sparing of normal tissues and support safe dose escalation for improved tumor control. However, conventional photon‐based fractionation remains widely used in proton therapy, where prolonged ...

ABSTRACT This study aimed to explore the differences of peripheral blood (PB) and bone marrow serum lipidomic profiles in severe aplastic anemia (SAA) patients and their significance in predicting earlier immunosuppressive therapy (IST) response. A cohort of 11 newly diagnosed SAA patients and 15 healthy controls were enrolled between June 2020 and ...

Beyond PD‐1/PD‐L1: New Immune Checkpoints and Therapeutic Combinations in Cancer Immunotherapy
ABSTRACT Recently, immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), particularly PD‐1/PD‐L1 and CTLA‐4 inhibitors, have revolutionized cancer treatment, significantly improving survival rates for various malignancies. However, ICI therapies targeting single checkpoints on T cells still face numerous challenges, such as low response rates and post‐treatment ...

Malignant peritoneal mesothelioma (MPM) is a rare and lethal disease of the peritoneal lining, with high variability in biologic aggressiveness. Morbidity and mortality of the disease are related to progressive locoregional effects within the abdominal cavity, such as distention, pain, early satiety, and decreased oral intake that can ultimately lead ...

Integrative eQTL and Mendelian randomization analysis reveals key genetic markers in mesothelioma
Background Mesothelioma is a rare cancer that originates from the pleura and peritoneum, with its incidence increasing due to asbestos exposure. Patients are frequently diagnosed at advanced stages, resulting in poor survival rates.
