Alectinib in terms of overall response rate, progression-free survival and partial response is superior to crizotinib in the treatment of ALK-positive non-small cell lung cancer and is well tolerated. Compared with crizotinib, alectinib is more effective than crizotinib and has a lower incidence of total adverse reactions. Meta-analysis results confirm the strong base for alectinib as a first-line treatment for ALK-positive NSCLC.Penile squamous cell carcinoma (PSCC) is a rare malignancy with poor survival after standard treatment. Although genomic alterations of PSCC have been characterized in several latest studies, the association between the formation of somatic landscape and regional lymph node metastasis (LNM), an important predictor for patient survival, has not been comprehensively investigated. Here, we collected formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tumor tissue and matched normal samples of 32 PSCC patients, including 14 LNM patients and 18 clinically node-negative patients, to implement a whole-exome sequencing. Comparison of genomic features among different lymph node status subgroups was conducted after genomic profiling and its effects on patient survival were explored. Top-ranked recurrent gene mutants in our PSCC cohort were TP53 (13/32), NOTCH1 (12/32), CDKN2A (11/32), TTN (9/32) and FAT1 (8/32), mainly identified in the Notch, Hippo, cell cycle, TP53, RTK-RAS and PI3K pathways. While CDKN2A was confirmed to be the driver gene in all PSCC patients, certain gene mutants were significantly enriched in LNM involved patients, including TP53 (9/14 vs. 4/18, p = 0.029) and GBF1 (4/14 vs. 0/18, p = 0.028). Overall survival stratification of PSCC patients were found to be significantly correlated with mutations of three genes, including PIK3CA (Hazard ratio [HR] = 4.15, p = 0.029), CHD7 (HR = 4.82, p = 0.032) and LAMC3 (HR = 15.9, p less then 0.001). PIK3CA and LAMC3 held a higher prevalence in patients with LNM compared to those without LNM (PIK3CA 3/14 vs. 1/18, LAMC3 2/14 vs. 1/18). Our finding demonstrated that genomic divergence exists across PSCC patients with different lymph node statuses, and it may be correlated with their survival outcome. It helps delineate somatic evolution during tumor progression and perfect potential therapeutic intervention in this disease.
Although the guidelines recommend gynecological assessment and close monitoring for symptoms of endometrial cancer in postmenopausal breast cancer survivors taking tamoxifen (TAM), the risk of endometrial cancer in young breast cancer survivors has not yet been fully assessed. This study aimed to investigate the risk of developing endometrial cancer and the frequencies of gynecological examinations in young breast cancer survivors taking TAM in South Korea.

A nationwide retrospective cohort study was conducted using the Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service claims data. Selleck ESI-09 Kaplan-Meier analyses and log-rank tests were used to assess the probability of endometrial cancer, benign endometrial conditions, and the probability of invasive endometrial procedure. To analyze the risk of endometrial cancer and benign endometrial conditions, we used a multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression model.

Between 2010 and 2015, 60,545 newly diagnosed female breast cancer survivors were included. The total Young breast cancer survivors with TAM-related benign endometrial diseases are at a higher risk of developing endometrial cancer. Gynecological surveillance should be tailored to the risk of endometrial cancer in young breast cancer survivors to improve the early detection of endometrial cancer and avoid unnecessary invasive procedures.

In recent years, DNA methylation modification has been shown to be a critical mechanism in the field of epigenetics.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) data were obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas project, including RNA expression profiles, Illumina Human Methylation 450K BeadChip data, clinical information, and pathological features. Then, differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and differentially methylated genes were identified using R software. Methylation-regulated DEGs (MeDEGs) were further analyzed using Spearman's correlation analysis. Gene ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analyses were performed using the DAVID database and ClueGO in Cytoscape software. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis explored the relationship between methylation, expression of MeDEGs, and survival time. Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) was conducted to predict the function of prognosis-related MeDEGs.

A total of nine up-regulated and 72 down-regulated MeDEGs were identified. GO and KEGG pe potential biomarkers and targets in diagnosis and treatment.Paclitaxel (PTX) is a first-line chemotherapeutic drug for the treatment of breast cancer, but drug resistance seriously limits its clinical use. The aim of the present work was to explore the effect of 3,3'-diindolylmethane (DIM) on PTX sensitivity and its possible mechanism in breast cancer. The expression of Krüppel-like factor 4 (KLF4) and DNA-methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1) in breast cancer tissues were assessed by immunohistochemistry and Western blotting. The methylation of KLF4 was evaluated by the MassARRAY platform. The lentivirus carrying KLF4 and DNMT1 gene or shRNA targeting DNMT1 were used to overexpress KLF4 or knockdown DNMT1 in MCF-7 and T47D breast cancer cells and the role of KLF4 and DNMT1 in regulation of PTX sensitivity was investigated. The effect of PTX on inhibiting the proliferation of MCF-7 and T47D cells was measured by CCK-8 assay. Flow cytometry was used to examine cell apoptosis. The expression of mRNA and protein was evaluated by qRT-PCR and Western blotting analysis, respectively.
