The impact of deleterious passenger mutations on cancer progression [PDF]
Cancer progression is driven by a small number of genetic alterations accumulating in a neoplasm. These few driver alterations reside in a cancer genome alongside tens of thousands of other mutations that are widely believed to have no role in cancer and termed passengers.

Drosophila as a model system to study nonautonomous mechanisms affecting tumour growth and cell death [PDF]
The study of cancer has represented a central focus in medical research for over a century. The great complexity and constant evolution of the pathology require the use of multiple research model systems and interdisciplinary approaches.

PARP-1 regulates DNA repair factor availability. [PDF]
PARP-1 holds major functions on chromatin, DNA damage repair and transcriptional regulation, both of which are relevant in the context of cancer. Here, unbiased transcriptional profiling revealed the downstream transcriptional profile of PARP-1 enzymatic

Benign TdT-positive cells in pediatric and adult lymph nodes: a potential diagnostic pitfall [PDF]
Benign TdT-positive cells have been documented in a variety of non-hematopoietic tissues. Scant data are however available on their presence in non-neoplastic lymph nodes.

Existing clinical biomarkers do not reliably predict treatment response or disease progression in patients with advanced intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC). Circulating neoplastic-immune hybrid cells (CHCs) have great promise as a blood-based biomarker for patients with advanced ICC.

Cell-permeable tumor suppressor peptides for cancer therapy: back to the future [PDF]
Miniaturization is a hallmark of modern technologies. Notably, this feature has not spared molecular biology and its potential applications. Towards developing more effective therapeutics against cancer, studies began to explore more than a decade ago how natural tumor suppression could be translated into antineoplastic drugs.

Towards a Computed Collateral Circulation Score in Ischemic Stroke [PDF]
Stroke is the second leading cause of disability worldwide. In order to minimize disability, the goal of stroke treatment is to preserve tissue in the area where blood supply is decreased but sufficient to stave off cell death. Thrombectomy has been shown to offer fast and efficient reperfusion with high recanalization rates.

Features and prognostic impact of distant metastases in 45 dogs with de novo stage IV cutaneous mast cell tumours: A prospective study [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Distant metastases in dogs with cutaneous mast cell tumors (cMCT) are rare and incurable. The aims of this prospective study were to clarify the clinico-pathological features of stage IV cMCTs and to identify possible prognostic factors for ...
