FAM107A loss facilitates TTK‐OPTN‐mediated mitophagy to drive docetaxel resistance in castration‐resistant prostate cancer

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
In the progression of docetaxel resistance, downregulation of FAM107A releases its transcriptional repression of TTK, leading to TTK upregulation. TTK enhances the interaction and phosphorylation of OPTN. This activates mitophagy in tumor cells, facilitates clearance of damaged mitochondria, reduces intracellular reactive oxygen species accumulation ...

Clinical Rationale of Dual‐Parameter Tumor Markers Reporting Without Reliance on Normal Reference Ranges

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
We recommend the current practice of tumor marker reporting to upgrade to two‐figure format to include a specific growth rate in parentheses. This can be of great clinical importance, especially in the subnormal range. ABSTRACT Introduction This review offers clinicians a novel view of tumor markers (TM).
