Sarcomatoid variant of urothelial carcinoma of renal pelvis with direct invasion of the pancreas and descending colon. [PDF]
Introduction Sarcomatoid variant of urothelial carcinoma infiltrates the perimeter and occurs occasionally. However, there are only few case reports. Case presentation A left renal tumor was incidentally detected in a 75‐year‐old woman and protruded outside the kidney, infiltrating the pancreatic tail and spleen.

Prognostic impact of Schlafen 11 in bladder cancer patients treated with platinum-based chemotherapy. [PDF]
Schlafen 11 (SLFN11) is a predictive biomarker for bladder cancer patients who undergo platinum‐based chemotherapy. A combination of epigenetic modifiers could rescue bladder cancer patients who are refractory to platinum derivatives, by reactivating SLFN11 expression.

Clinicopathological Characteristics of Upper Tract Urothelial Cancer With Loss of Immunohistochemical Expression of Mismatch Repair Proteins. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Objectives Lynch syndrome (LS) is an inherited cancer predisposition caused by germline mutations in DNA mismatch repair (MMR) genes. Upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) is the third most common cancer associated with LS. In this study, we examined MMR protein expression in UTUC using immunohistochemistry to clarify the clinicopathological

Overexpression of claspin promotes docetaxel resistance and is associated with prostate-specific antigen recurrence in prostate cancer. [PDF]
Claspin overexpression was related to poor PSA relapse‐free prognosis. Claspin knockdown significantly upregulated the sensitivity to docetaxel in DU145 docetaxel‐resistant cells. Abstract Although docetaxel (DTX) confers significant survival benefits in patients with castration‐resistant prostate cancer (CRPC), resistance to DTX inevitably occurs ...

Induced hepatic stellate cell integrin, α8β1, enhances cellular contractility and TGFβ activity in liver fibrosis. [PDF]
Abstract No effective therapy exists for fatal fibrosis. New therapeutic targets are needed for hepatic fibrosis because the incidence keeps increasing. The activation and differentiation of fibroblasts into myofibroblasts that causes excessive matrix deposition is central to fibrosis.

Evaluation of the Threshold for an Improved Surface Water Extraction Index Using Optical Remote Sensing Data. [PDF]
In this study, we proposed an automatic water extraction index (AWEI) threshold improvement model that can be used to detect lake surface water based on optical remote sensing data. An annual Landsat 8 mosaic was created using the Google Earth Engine (GEE) platform to obtain cloud‐free satellite image data.

TDO2 overexpression correlates with poor prognosis, cancer stemness, and resistance to cetuximab in bladder cancer. [PDF]
Abstract Background Bladder cancer (BC) is the 10th most common cancer in the world. BC with muscle invasion results in a poor prognosis and is usually fatal. Cancer cell metabolism has an essential role in the development and progression of tumors. Expression of tryptophan 2,3‐dioxygenase (TDO2) is associated with tumor progression and worse survival ...

Oncogenic mutation in RAS-RAF axis leads to increased expression of GREB1, resulting in tumor proliferation in colorectal cancer. [PDF]
Greb1 was the most highly upregulated gene in Braf‐mutated mouse tumors compared to WT Kras/Braf. GREB1 functions as an oncogene, promoting cell proliferation in colorectal cancer. Abstract BRAFV600E mutation accounts for up to 90% of all BRAF mutations in human colorectal cancer (CRC), and constitutively activates the MEK‐MAPK pathway.
