Fine-tuned repression of Drp1-driven mitochondrial fission primes a ‘stem/progenitor-like state’ to support neoplastic transformation [PDF]
Gene knockout of the master regulator of mitochondrial fission, Drp1, prevents neoplastic transformation. Also, mitochondrial fission and its opposing process of mitochondrial fusion are emerging as crucial regulators of stemness.

Gastric Hyperplastic Polyps: A Benign Entity? Analysis of Recurrence and Neoplastic Transformation in a Cohort Study [PDF]
Introduction: Hyperplastic polyps represent 30–93% of all gastric epithelial polyps. They are generally detected as innocuous incidental findings; however, they have a risk of neoplastic transformation and recurrence.

Rewired m6A epitranscriptomic networks link mutant p53 to neoplastic transformation [PDF]
The dysregulation of the m6A epitranscriptomic networks have been reported to contribute to the development of gliomas. Here, the authors utilize induced pluripotent stem cell-derived astrocytes with a p53 mutation and demonstrate that mutant p53 ...

Significance of Furin Expression in Thyroid Neoplastic Transformation [PDF]
Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme 2 (ACE2), Transmembrane Serine Protease 2 (TMPRSS2), and Furin were known to be key players in the SARS-CoV-2 infection, and the thyroid gland was revealed to be one of the relevant targets of the virus. Regardless of the viral infection, the expression of these molecules in the thyroid gland and their putative role in the

Cyclooxygenase-2 induces neoplastic transformation by inhibiting p53-dependent oncogene-induced senescence [PDF]
Much in vivo evidence indicates that cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) is deeply involved in tumorigenesis. Although it has been proposed that COX-2-derived pro-inflammatory prostanoids mediate the tumorigenic activity of COX-2, the tumorigenic mechanisms of COX ...

Dynamics of genome architecture and chromatin function during human B cell differentiation and neoplastic transformation [PDF]
The dynamics of genome architecture during human cell differentiation and upon neoplastic transformation remain poorly characterized. Here, the authors integrate in situ Hi-C and nine additional omic layers to characterize the dynamic changes in 3D ...

Oncogenic FGFR Fusions Produce Centrosome and Cilia Defects by Ectopic Signaling
A single primary cilium projects from most vertebrate cells to guide cell fate decisions. A growing list of signaling molecules is found to function through cilia and control ciliogenesis, including the fibroblast growth factor receptors (FGFR). Aberrant

Adenomatoid Odontogenic Tumour Associated with Dentigerous Cyst: Case Report with Literature Review [PDF]
Adenomatoid Odontogenic Tumour (AOT) is a relatively uncommon benign odontogenic tumour composed of odontogenic epithelium in a variety of histoarchitectural patterns. Conventional AOT is predominantly seen in females in second decade of life exhibiting
