    查看更多>>摘要:Cervical cancer is a severe threat to women's health.The majority of cervical cancer cases occur in developing countries.The WHO has proposed screening 70%of women with high-performance tests between 35 and 45 years of age by 2030 to accelerate the elimination of cervical cancer.Due to an inadequate health infrastructure and organized screening strategy,most low-and middle-income countries are still far from achieving this goal.As part of the efforts to increase performance of cervical cancer screening,it is necessary to investigate the most accurate,efficient,and effective methods and strategies.Artificial intelligence(AI)is rapidly expanding its application in cancer screening and diagnosis and deep learning algorithms have offered human-like interpretation capabilities on various medical images.AI will soon have a more significant role in improving the implementation of cervical cancer screening,management,and follow-up.This review aims to report the state of AI with respect to cervical cancer screening.We discuss the primary AI applications and development of AI technology for image recognition applied to detection of abnormal cytology and cervical neoplastic diseases,as well as the challenges that we anticipate in the future.

    查看更多>>摘要:Ubiquitination,a multifaceted post-translational modification,regulates protein function,degradation,and gene expression.The pivotal role of ubiquitination in the pathogenesis and progression of cancer,including colorectal,breast,and liver cancer,is well-established.Osteosarcoma,an aggressive bone tumor predominantly affecting adolescents,also exhibits dysregulation of the ubiquitination system,encompassing both ubiquitination and deubiquitination processes.This dysregulation is now recognized as a key driver of osteosarcoma development,progression,and chemoresistance.This review highlights recent progress in elucidating how ubiquitination modulates tumor behavior across signaling pathways.We then focus on the mechanisms by which ubiquitination influences osteosarcoma cell function.Finally,we discuss the potential for targeting the ubiquitin-proteasome system in osteosarcoma therapy.By unraveling the impact of ubiquitination on osteosarcoma cell physiology,we aim to facilitate the development of novel strategies for prognosis,staging,treatment,and overcoming chemoresistance.

    查看更多>>摘要:Objective:Colorectal cancer(CRC)is a prevalent malignant tumor with a high fatality rate.CircPDIA4 has been shown to have a vital role in cancer development by acting as a facilitator.Nevertheless,the impact of the circPDIA4/miR-9-5p/SP1 axis on development of CRC has not been studied.Methods:Western blot,immunohistochemistry,and reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction assays were used to analyze gene expression.The CCK-8 assay was used to assess cell growth.The Transwell assay was used to detect invasion and migration of cells.The luciferase reporter and RNA immunoprecipitation tests were used to determine if miR-9-5p and circPDIA4(or SP1)bind to one another.An in vivo assay was used to measure tumor growth.Results:It was shown that circPDIA4 expression was greater in CRC cell lines and tissues than healthy cell lines and tissues.CircPDIA4 knockdown prevented the invasion,migration,and proliferation of cells in CRC.Additionally,the combination of circPDIA4 and miR-9-5p was confirmed,as well as miR-9-5p binding to SP1.Rescue experiments also showed that the circPDIA4/miR-9-5p/SP1 axis accelerated the development of CRC.In addition,SP1 combined with the promoter region of circPDIA4 and induced circPDIA4 transcription.CircPDIA4 was shown to facilitate tumor growth in an in vivo assay.Conclusions:The circPDIA4/miR-9-5p/SP1 feedback loop was shown to aggravate CRC progression.This finding suggests that the ceRNA axis may be a promising biomarker for CRC patient treatment.

    查看更多>>摘要:Objective:CDK4/6 inhibitors(CDK4/6is)in combination with endocrine therapy have secured a central role in the treatment of hormone receptor(HR)-positive advanced breast cancer(ABC)and have transformed the therapeutic landscape.Cross-line CDK4/6i therapy in which another CDK4/6i is continued after progression on a prior CDK4/6i may still offer advantageous therapeutic effects.Cross-line CDK4/6i therapy is an area of active investigation in the ongoing pursuit to improve outcomes for patients with HR+/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2(HER2)-ABC.Methods:This retrospective study enrolled 82 patients with HR+/HER2-ABC who were treated with cross-line CDK4/6is(abemaciclib,palbociclib,ribociclib,and dalpiciclib)after progression with another CDK4/6i.The primary endpoint was progression-free survival(PFS)according to version 1.1 of the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors.Secondary endpoints included toxicity,objective response rate,disease control rate,and overall survival.Adverse events(AEs)were graded according to version 5.0 of the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events,as promulgated by the U.S.Department of Health and Human Services.Results:Eighty-two HR+/HER2-ABC patients who received cross-line CDK4/6i therapy from January 2022 to February 2024 were enrolled.The median age of the patients was 60 years.The median PFS of all patients was 7.6 months(95%CI,5.9-9.2).Cox regression analysis identified lung metastasis and a switch to endocrine therapy following prior CDK4/6i therapy as independent predictive factors for PFS.Notably,patients who previously received abemaciclib and switched to palbociclib upon disease progression had a median PFS of 10.7 months.The strategy of transitioning to chemotherapy after progression on a prior CDK4/6i,then to a subsequent CDK4/6i merits further investigation.Hematologic toxicity was the most common grade≥3 AEs.No instances of fatal safety events were observed.Conclusions:Cross-line CDK4/6i therapy is associated with significant clinical benefits and manageable safety profiles in patients with HR+/HER2-ABC,which underscores cross-line CDK4/6i therapy potential as an effective treatment strategy.

    查看更多>>摘要:Objective:The possible enhancing effect of anlotinib on programmed death receptor ligand(PD-L1)antibody and the efficacy-predicting power of PD-L1 in micro-conduit endothelium,including lymphatic endothelial cells(LECs)and blood endothelial cells(BECs),were determined to identify patients who would benefit from this treatment.Methods:PD-L1 positivity in LECs,BECs,and tumor cells(TCs)was assessed using paraffin sections with multicolor immunofluorescence in an investigator's brochure clinical trial of TQB2450(PD-L1 antibody)alone or in combination with anlotinib in patients with non-small cell lung cancer.Progression-free survival(PFS)with different levels of PD-L1 expression was compared between the two groups.Results:Among 75 patients,the median PFS(mPFS)was longer in patients who received TQB2450 with anlotinib[10 and 12 mg(161 and 194 days,respectively)]than patients receiving TQB2450 alone(61 days)[hazard ratio(HR)10 mg=0.390(95%confidence interval{CI},0.201-0.756),P=0.005;HR12 mg=0.397(0.208-0.756),P=0.005].The results were similar among 58 patients with high PD-L1 expression in LECs and TCs[159 and 209 vs.82 days,HR10 mg=0.445(0.210-0.939),P=0.034;HR12 mg=0.369(0.174-0.784),P=0.009],and 53 patients with high PD-L1 expression in BECs and TCs[161 and 209 vs.41 days,HR10 mg=0.340(0.156-0.742),P=0.007;HR12 mg=0.340(0.159-0.727),P=0.005].No differences were detected in the mPFS between the TQB2450 and combination therapy groups in 13 low/no LEC-expressing and 18 low/no BEC-expressing PD-L1 cases.Conclusions:Mono-immunotherapy is not effective in patients with high PD-L1 expression in LECs and/or BECs.Anlotinib may increase efficacy by downregulating PD-L1 expression in LECs and/or BECs,which is presumed to be a feasible marker for screening the optimal immune patient population undergoing anti-angiogenic therapy.
