Targeted PI3K/AKT/mTOR therapy for metastatic carcinomas of the cervix: A phase I clinical experience. [PDF]
BackgroundActivated PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway frequently occurs in metastatic or recurrent cervical carcinomas. However, the clinical benefits of matched therapy, a therapeutic approach targeting a specific mutational abnormality, have not yet been ...

Interleukin-1 receptor antagonist: a promising cytokine against human squamous cell carcinomas
Inflammation, especially chronic inflammation, is closely linked to tumor development. As essential chronic inflammatory cytokines, the interleukin family plays a key role in inflammatory infections and malignancies.

Genomic instability in human actinic keratosis and squamous cell carcinoma [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: To compare the repetitive DNA patterns of human actinic keratoses and squamous cell carcinomas to determine the genetic alterations that are associated with malignant transformation. INTRODUCTION: Cancer cells are prone to genomic instability,

Psoriasin (S100A7) expression is altered during skin tumorigenesis [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Psoriasin (S100A7) expression has previously been associated with psoriasiform hyperplasia as well as with tumor progression in breast cancer. Its expression profile for different stages of skin lesions is unknown.

Surfaceome: a new era in the discovery of immune evasion mechanisms of circulating tumor cells
In the era of immunotherapies, many patients either do not respond or eventually develop resistance. We propose to pave the way for proteomic analysis of surface‐expressed proteins called surfaceome, of circulating tumor cells. This approach seeks to identify immune evasion mechanisms and discover potential therapeutic targets. Circulating tumor cells (

Hematoxylin and eosin stained oral squamous cell carcinoma histological images dataset [PDF]
Computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) can be used as an important tool to aid and enhance pathologists' diagnostic decision-making. Deep learning techniques, such as convolutional neural networks (CNN) and fully convolutional networks (FCN), have been successfully applied in medical and biological research.

Expression of heparanase in basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma [PDF]
: Background: Heparanase is an enzyme that cleaves heparan sulfate chains. Oligosaccharides generated by heparanase induce tumor progression. Basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma comprise types of nonmelanoma skin cancer.

Prediction of post-radiotherapy recurrence volumes in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma using 3D U-Net segmentation [PDF]
Locoregional recurrences (LRR) are still a frequent site of treatment failure for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) patients. Identification of high risk subvolumes based on pretreatment imaging is key to biologically targeted radiation therapy.
