Beneficence‐Based Obligations and Ethics Consultation in Assisted Dying
ABSTRACT In ethical debates on assisted dying, the principle of respect for autonomy is usually invoked to justify respecting requests for assisted dying. However, there are not only autonomy‐based obligations, but also obligations arising from the principle of beneficence towards persons requesting assisted dying.

A11 Peptide Enhances Radiosensitivity by Degrading EphA2 in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma
In EphA2‐high‐expressing nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells, radiation triggers RSK‐dependent phosphorylation of EphA2 at Ser897, which in turn activates AKT and promote radioresistance. The A11 peptide breaks this signaling cascade by degrading EphA2 and blocking its S897 phosphorylation, thereby markedly enhancing radiosensitivity.

ZNF844 functions as a tumor suppressor in NPC by inhibiting invasion and metastasis through regulation of the PI3K‐AKT signaling pathway. It may serve as a promising therapeutic target and prognostic biomarker for NPC. ABSTRACT Epigenetic regulation plays a crucial role in the development of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC).

ABSTRACT Objectives While there are plausible biological explanations for the association between oral health and head and neck cancers (HNC), existing studies have yielded conflicting results. A key concern is that these associations are influenced by mediators, unmeasured risk factors, and biases. To address this, a negative control exposure was used

A guide to the types, structures, and multifaceted functions of matrix metalloproteinases in cancer
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) orchestrate cancer progression and metastasis through proteolytic and non‐proteolytic actions. By remodeling the tumor microenvironment, enhancing growth factor availability, and modulating cell behavior, MMPs promote proliferation, migration or invasion, and epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition. Alongside extracellular

ABSTRACT Background Radiotherapy‐induced malignancies are well‐documented, but the clinicopathological profile and prognostic factors of radiation‐induced oral squamous cell carcinoma (R‐OSCC) remain unclear. Methods The present review was conducted in accordance with the PRISMA guidelines and has been registered in the PROSPERO (registration number ...

ABSTRACT Objectives The prognostic significance of the neutrophil‐to‐lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and tumor‐associated neutrophils (TANs) in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) remains a subject of considerable research interest. This systematic review and meta‐analysis aimed to evaluate the relationship between pretreatment NLR and TANs and ...

ABSTRACT Introduction While the prevalence of microsatellite instability (MSI) is low in the whole head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) population, it has been suggested to be more prominent in tumors of non‐smokers. Therefore, the goal of this study was to determine the presence of MSI in a cohort of well‐defined HNSCC of non‐smokers and non ...
