Base-excision repair pathway shapes 5-methylcytosine deamination signatures in pan-cancer genomes

Nature Communications
Transition of cytosine to thymine in CpG dinucleotides is the most frequent type of mutation in cancer. This increased mutability is commonly attributed to the spontaneous deamination of 5-methylcytosine (5mC), which is normally repaired by the base ...

Identify the signature genes for diagnose of uveal melanoma by weight gene co-expression network analysis [PDF]

International Journal of Ophthalmology, 2015
AIM: To identify and understand the relationship between co-expression pattern and clinic traits in uveal melanoma, weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) is applied to investigate the gene expression levels and patient clinic features ...

Molecular Tumor Boards in Malignant Melanoma: Uncovering Challenges and Opportunities in a Bicenter Retrospective Analysis in Germany

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Molecular tumor boards (MTB), interdisciplinary teams that use tumor genomic data to guide personalized treatment decisions, have emerged as a promising strategy in melanoma care, although their real‐world clinical impact remains uncertain. This retrospective study evaluated advanced melanoma patients to assess molecularly guided treatment ...

Alpha‐Synuclein Promotes Anterograde Vesicle Transport in Melanocytes and Melanoma Cells: A Pro‐Survival Function

Journal of the Chinese Chemical Society, EarlyView.
Model for how α‐syn modulates the positioning of endolysosomes in melanoma cells. (a) α‐syn tethers endolysosomes to the plasma membrane, a last step in anterograde transport. (b) Loss of α‐syn expression causes the loss of the tethering function, which leads to perinuclear vesicle clustering. Reproduced from the open access article.

Forty-year prognosis after plaque brachytherapy of uveal melanoma

Scientific Reports, 2020
In this study, the long-term patient survival after plaque brachytherapy of uveal melanoma is examined. All patients treated between 1980 and 1999 at a single institution were included (n = 677). 533 (79%) had deceased before the end of follow-up.

JMJD2C mediates the MDM2/p53/IL5RA axis to promote CDDP resistance in uveal melanoma

Cell Death Discovery, 2022
Chemotherapy resistance poses an obstacle for effective treatment of uveal melanoma. In this study, we aim to investigate the effects of jumonji domain containing 2C (JMJD2C)-mediated mouse double minute-2 homolog (MDM2)/p53/interleukin 5 receptor ...

Clinical and Molecular Features of BAP1‐Mutated Meningiomas: Case Series

Molecular Carcinogenesis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT BRCA1‐associated protein 1 (BAP1)‐deficient meningiomas represent a clinically and molecularly distinct subgroup with variable histology and aggressive behavior that may not be fully captured by current grading criteria. The clinical spectrum of BAP1 alterations in meningiomas, including both somatic and germline contexts, remains incompletely

Functional validation of driver mutation‐specific uveal melanoma biomarkers: role of COL9A3 in cancer cell plasticity

The Journal of Pathology, EarlyView.
Abstract Uveal melanoma (UM) is a deadly ocular malignancy with well‐described genetic alterations that predict disease outcome. However, our current understanding of the biological underpinnings of high‐risk uveal melanoma progression remains relatively limited. Using RNA expression profiles from 250 patients with UM, we identified 12 novel biomarkers

Patients presenting with stage IV uveal melanoma: Lessons learned

Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2022
Challenges persist in identifying patients with stage IV uveal melanoma. While clinical, histopathologic, and genetic features of the primary tumor have been shown to provide prognostic value for assessing metastatic risk, biopsy-related genetic analyses

RNA‐binding protein RBMS1: A new target for cancer diagnosis and treatment

Precision Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
This schematic illustrates the diverse regulatory roles of RNA‐binding motif single‐stranded interacting protein 1 (RBMS1) across multiple human cancers. In breast cancer, RBMS1 stabilizes B4GALT1 mRNA to promote PD‐L1 glycosylation, modulating tumor immune escape and immunotherapy efficacy.
