RESUMO
Drug resistance remains a significant challenge in cancer treatment. Recently, the interactions among various cell types within the tumor microenvironment (TME) have deepened our understanding of the mechanisms behind treatment resistance. Therefore, this review aims to synthesize current research focusing on infiltrating cells and drug resistance suggesting that targeting the TME could be a viable strategy to combat this issue. Numerous factors, including inflammation, metabolism, senescence, hypoxia, and angiogenesis, contribute to drug resistance could be a viable strategy to combat this issue. Overexpression of STAT3 is commonly associated with drug-resistant cancer cells or stromal cells. Current research often generalizes the impact of stromal cells on resistance, lacking specificity and statistical robustness. Thus, future research should take notice of this issue and aim to provide high-quality evidence. Despite the existing limitations, targeting the TME to overcome therapy resistance hold promising and valuable potential.

Bladder cancer stands as a prevalent global malignancy, exhibiting notable sex-based variations in both incidence and prognosis. Despite substantial strides in therapeutic approaches, the formidable challenge of drug resistance persists. The genomic landscape of bladder cancer, characterized by intricate clonal heterogeneity, emerges as a pivotal determinant in fostering this resistance. Clonal evolution, encapsulating the dynamic transformations within subpopulations of tumor cells over time, is implicated in the emergence of drug-resistant traits. Within this review, we illuminate contemporary insights into the role of clonal evolution in bladder cancer, elucidating its influence as a driver in tumor initiation, disease progression, and the formidable obstacle of therapy resistance.

Aging and circadian rhythms have been connected for decades, but their molecular interaction has remained unknown, especially for cancers. In this situation, we summarized the current research actuality and problems in this field using the bibliometric analysis. Publications in the PubMed and Web of Science databases were retrieved. Overall, there is a rising trend in the publication volume regarding aging and circadian rhythms in the field of cancer. Researchers from USA, Germany, Italy, China and England have greater studies than others. Top three publication institutions are University of California System, UDICE-French Research Universities and University of Texas System. Current research hotspots include oxidative stress, breast cancer, melatonin, cell cycle, calorie restriction, prostate cancer and NF-KB. In conclusion, results generated by bibliometric analysis indicate that many approaches involve in the complex interactions between aging and circadian rhythm in cancer. These established and emerging research directions guide our exploration of the regulatory mechanisms of aging and circadian rhythms in cancer and provide a reference for developing new research avenues.
RESUMO
PURPOSE: The objective of this study is to analyze characteristics of recurrent acute urinary retention (AUR) in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), utilizing a population based data set. Also, we sought to report on how AUR was treated, specifically regarding the need and length of catheterization and types of procedures utilized for mitigation. MATERIALS & METHODS: A retrospective observational cohort study was performed using Optum's deidentified Clinformatics® Data Mart Database. We compared two groups, BPH patients with AUR (n = 180,737) and BPH patients without AUR (n = 1,139,760) from January 1, 2003 to December 31, 2017. Also, we analyzed the factors affecting the development of multiple episodes of AUR through age-adjusted multivariate analysis. RESULTS: In contrast to the 47.7% of patients who had a single AUR episode, 33.5% of AUR patients developed 3 or more subsequent episodes of retention. For age matched patients, the risks of additional episodes of retention increase significantly with older age, Caucasian race, diabetes, neurologic conditions, or low income. Overall, the rate of BPH surgery in AUR patients over the study period decreased and the most common procedure was transurethral resection of the prostate. CONCLUSIONS: Risk factors for multiple episodes of AUR included age (60 and older), Caucasian race, lower income socioeconomic status, diabetes, and neurological disorders. Patients with a high probability of developing recurrent episodes of AUR are recommended to receive preemptive BPH medication before such AUR occurrences. Also, more expeditious surgical treatment should be considered rather than temporary catheterization when AUR occurs.

BACKGROUND: We aimed to explore the role of mitochondrial aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) in prostate cancer (PCa) patients and provide insights into the tumor immune microenvironment (TME) for those patients undergoing radical radiotherapy. METHODS: We performed all analyses using R version 3.6.3 and its suitable packages. Cytoscape 3.8.2 was used to establish network of competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs). RESULTS: Downregulation of ADLH2 was significantly associated with higher risk of BCR-free survival (HR: 0.40, 95%CI: 0.24-0.68, p = 0.001) and metastasis-free survival (HR: 0.21, 95%CI: 0.09-0.49, p = 0.002). Additionally, ALDH2 repression contributed to significantly shorter BCR-free survival in the TCGA database (HR: 0.55, 95%CI: 0.33-0.93, p = 0.027). For immune checkpoints, patients that expressed a higher level of CD96 had a higher risk of BCR than their counterparts (HR: 1.79, 95%CI: 1.06-3.03, p = 0.032), as well as NRP1 (HR: 2.18, 95%CI: 1.29-3.69, p = 0.005). In terms of the TME parameters, the spearman analysis showed that ALDH was positively associated with B cells (r: 0.13), CD8+ T cells (r: 0.19), neutrophils (r: 0.13), and macrophages (r: 0.17). Patients with higher score of neutrophils (HR: 1.75, 95%CI: 1.03-2.95, p = 0.038), immune score (HR: 1.92, 95%CI: 1.14-3.25, p = 0.017), stromal score (HR: 2.52, 95%CI: 1.49-4.26, p = 0.001), and estimate score (HR: 1.81, 95%CI: 1.07-3.06, p = 0.028) had higher risk of BCR than their counterparts. Our ceRNA network found that PART1 might regulate the expression of ALDH via has-miR-578 and has-miR-6833-3p. Besides, PHA-793887, PI-103, and piperlongumine had better correlations with ALDH2. CONCLUSIONS: We found that ALDH2 might serve as a potential biomarker predicting biochemical recurrence for PCa patients.

BACKGROUND: The relationship between first-degree family history of female breast cancer and prostate cancer risk in the general population remains unclear. We performed a meta-analysis to determine the association between first-degree family history of female breast cancer and prostate cancer risk. METHODS: Databases, including MEDLINE, Embase, and Web of Science, were searched for all associated studies that evaluated associations between first-degree family history of female breast cancer and prostate cancer risk up to December 31, 2018. Information on study characteristics and outcomes were extracted based on the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-analysis (PRISMA) statement and Meta-analysis of Observational Studies in Epidemiology (MOOSE) guidelines. The quality of evidence was assessed using the GRADE approach. RESULTS: Eighteen studies involving 17,004,892 individuals were included in the meta-analysis. Compared with no family history of female breast cancer, history of female breast cancer in first-degree relatives was associated with an increased risk of prostate cancer [relative risk (RR) 1.18, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.12-1.25] with moderate-quality evidence. A history of breast cancer in mothers only (RR 1.19, 95% CI 1.10-1.28) and sisters only (RR 1.71, 95% CI 1.43-2.04) was associated with increased prostate cancer risk with moderate-quality evidence. However, a family history of breast cancer in daughters only was not associated with prostate cancer incidence (RR 1.74, 95% CI 0.74-4.12) with moderate-quality evidence. A family history of female breast cancer in first-degree relatives was associated with an 18% increased risk of lethal prostate cancer (95% CI 1.04-1.34) with low-quality evidence. CONCLUSIONS: This review demonstrates that men with a family history of female breast cancer in first-degree relatives had an increased risk of prostate cancer, including risk of lethal prostate cancer. These findings may guide screening, earlier detection, and treatment of men with a family history of female breast cancer in first-degree relatives.

BACKGROUND: There is currently limited information regarding the prognostic ability of the dNLR-PNI (the combination of the derived neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio [dNLR] and prognostic nutritional index [PNI]) for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). This study aimed to assess the predictive ability of the dNLR-PNI in patients with intermediate-to-advanced HCC after transarterial chemoembolization (TACE). METHODS: A total of 761 HCC patients were enrolled in the study. The dNLR-PNI was retrospectively calculated in these patients, as follows: patients with both an elevated dNLR and a decreased PNI, as determined using the cutoffs obtained from receiver operating characteristic curve analysis, were allocated a score of 2, while patients showing one or neither of these alterations were allocated a score of 1 or 0, respectively. RESULTS: During the follow-up period, 562 patients died. Multivariate analysis suggested that elevated total bilirubin, Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer C stage, repeated TACE, and dNLR-PNI were independently associated with unsatisfactory overall survival. The median survival times of patients with a dNLR-PNI of 0, 1, and 2 were 31.0 (95% confidence interval [CI] 22.5-39.5), 16.0 (95% CI 12.2-19.7) and 6.0 (95% CI 4.8-7.2) months, respectively (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: The dNLR-PNI can predict the survival outcomes of intermediate-to-advanced HCC patients undergoing TACE, and should be further evaluated as a prognostic marker for who are to undergo TACE treatment.

OBJECTIVES: To investigate the diagnostic value of cystain C (SCys-C) in contrast associated acute kidney injury (AKI) after transcatheter closure for children with congenital heart disease. METHODS: There were 128 children with congenital heart disease (interventricular septal defect or patent ductus arteriosus) underwent transcatheter closure in West China Second University Hospital during 2013. Blood urea nitrogen (BUN), serum creatinine (SCr) and SCys-C were examined before surgery and at 24 and 48 h after surgery. The incidence of AKI was calculated. The children were divided into two groups according to glomerular filtration rate: AKI group (renal function stage 1, renal function stage 2 subgroups) and non-AKI group. Differences in renal function indexes and SCys-C were compared between AKI group ( n=16) and non-AKI group ( n=112), renal function stage 1 and stage 2 subgroups. ROC curve analysis was used to calculate the cut-off value of SCys-C in the diagnosis of AKI . RESULTS: The levels of SCr and SCys-C in AKI group were significantly higher than those in non-AKI group ( P<0.05). However, there was no significant difference in BUN between the two groups ( P>0.05). Only SCys-C had a significant difference between renal function stage 1 and stage 2 subgroups ( P<0.05). The cut-off value of 24 h SCys-C in the diagnosis of AKI was 1.055 mg/L according to area under curve (AUC). AUC indicated that AKI could be diagnosed earlier with SCys-C than SCr ( P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS: The contrast agent could increase the risk of child AKI after transcatheter closure for congenital disease children.SCys-C is an important index for this risk with its cut-off value of 1.055 mg/L at 24 h post-surgery.

The Period (PER) gene family is one of the core components of the circadian clock, with substantial correlations between the PER genes and cancers identified in extensive researches. Abnormal mutations in PER genes can influence cell function, metabolic activity, immunity, and therapy responses, thereby promoting the initiation and development of cancers. This ultimately results in unequal cancers progression and prognosis in patients. This leads to variable cancer progression and prognosis among patients. In-depth studies on the interactions between the PER genes and cancers can reveal novel strategies for cancer detection and treatment. In this review, we aim to provide a comprehensive overview of the latest research on the role of the PER gene family in cancer.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Natural products have demonstrated significant potential in cancer drug discovery, particularly in renal cancer (RCa), urothelial carcinoma (UC), and testicular cancer (TC). PURPOSE: This review aims to examine the effects of natural products on RCa, UC and TC. STUDY DESIGN: systematic review METHODS: PubMed and Web of Science databases were retrieved to search studies about the effects of natural products and derivatives on these cancers. Relevant publications in the reference list of enrolled studies were also checked. RESULTS: This review highlighted their diverse impacts on key aspects such as cell growth, apoptosis, metastasis, therapy response, and the immune microenvironment. Natural products not only hold promise for novel drug development but also enhance the efficacy of existing chemotherapy and immunotherapy. Importantly, we exert their effects through modulation of critical pathways and target genes, including the PI3K/AKT pathway, NF-κB pathway, STAT pathway and MAPK pathway, among others in RCa, UC, and TC. CONCLUSION: These mechanistic insights provide valuable guidance for researchers, facilitating the selection of promising natural products for cancer management and offering potential avenues for further gene regulation studies in the context of cancer treatment.

Background: We aimed to identify two new prognostic subtypes and create a predictive index for prostate cancer (PCa) patients based on ferroptosis database. Methods: The nonnegative matrix factorization approach was used to identify molecular subtypes. We investigate the differences between cluster 1 and cluster 2 in terms of clinical features, functional pathways, tumour stemness, tumour heterogeneity, gene mutation and tumour immune microenvironment score after identifying the two molecular subtypes. Colony formation assay and flow cytometry assay were performed. Results: The stratification of two clusters was closely connected to BCR-free survival using the nonnegative matrix factorization method, which was validated in the other three datasets. Furthermore, multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that this classification was an independent risk factor for patients with PCa. Ribosome, aminoacyl tRNA production, oxidative phosphorylation, and Parkinson's disease-related pathways were shown to be highly enriched in cluster 1. In comparison to cluster 2, patients in cluster 1 exhibited significantly reduced CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells, neutrophils, dendritic cells and tumor immune microenvironment scores. Only HHLA2 was more abundant in cluster 1. Moreover, we found that P4HB downregulation could significantly inhibit the colony formation ability and contributed to cell apoptosis of C4-2B and DU145 cell lines. Conclusions: We discovered two new prognostic subtypes associated with immunological dysfunction in PCa patients based on ferroptosis-related genes and found that P4HB downregulation could significantly inhibit the colony formation ability and contributed to cell apoptosis of PCa cell lines.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: There is currently a limited number of studies on transglutaminase type 1 (TGM1) in tumors. The objective of this study is to perform a comprehensive analysis across various types of cancer to determine the prognostic significance of TGM1 in tumors and investigate its role in the immune environment. METHOD: Pan-cancer and mutational data were retrieved from the TCGA database and analyzed using R (version 3.6.4) and its associated software package. The expression difference and prognosis of TGM1 were examined, along with its correlation with tumor heterogeneity, stemness, mutation landscape, and RNA modification. Additionally, the relationship between TGM1 expression and tumor immunity was investigated using the TIMER method. RESULTS: TGM1 is expressed differently in various tumors and normal samples and is associated with the overall survival and progression-free time of KIRC, ACC, SKCM, LIHC, and STES. In LICH, we found a negative correlation between TGM1 expression and 6 indicators of tumor stemness. The mutation frequencies of BLCA, LIHC, and KIRC were 1.7%, 0.3%, and 0.3% respectively. In BLCA and BRCA, there was a significant correlation between TGM1 expression and the infiltration of CD4 + T cells, CD8 + T cells, neutrophils, and dendritic cells. CONCLUSION: TGM1 has the potential to serve as both a prognostic marker and a drug target.

BACKGROUND: Recently, numerous studies have reported the interaction between senescence and oxidative stress in cancer. However, there is a lack of a comprehensive understanding of the precise mechanisms involved. AIM: Therefore, our review aims to summarize the current findings and elucidate by presenting specific mechanisms that encompass functional pathways, target genes, and related aspects. METHODS: Pubmed and Web of Science databases were retrieved to search studies about the interaction between senescence and oxidative stress in cancer. Relevant publications in the reference list of enrolled studies were also checked. RESULTS: In carcinogenesis, oxidative stress-induced cellular senescence acts as a barrier against the transformation of stimulated cells into cancer cells. However, the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) is positively linked to tumorigenesis. In the cancer progression stage, targeting specific genes or pathways that promote oxidative stress-induced cellular senescence can suppress cancer progression. In terms of treatment, many current clinical therapies combine with novel drugs to overcome resistance and reduce side effects by attenuating oxidative stress-induced senescence. Notably, emerging drugs control cancer development by enhancing oxidative stress-induced senescence. These studies highlight the complacted effects of the interplay between oxidative stress and senescence at different cancer stages and among distinct cell populations. Future research should focus on characterizing the roles of distinct senescent cell types in various tumor stages and identifying the specific components of SASP. CONCLUDSION: We've summarized the mechanisms of senescence and oxidative stress in cancer and provided illustrative figures to guide future research in this area.

Telemedicine has gained tremendous development during the COVID-19 pandemic. With deblocking and opening, telemedicine accelerates the evolvution of the medical "snack community" and undermines the perception of medical students and staff, which promotes the incidence of psychosocial-related disorders. Moreover, the inconsistent telemedicine adaptability between medical workers and patients aggravates the doctor-patient conflict due to the aging population and COVID-19 squeal. Telemedicine is colliding with the national healthcare system, whose synchronization with conventional medical service is crucial to coordinate the relationship among medical payment, patient privacy and qualifications of clinicians. This study puts more emphasis on the double-edged sword role of telemedicine in clinical practice and medical education during the COVID-19 pandemic and beyond. Overall, while telemedicine has demonstrated its utility in health care throughout the COVID pandemic, it is pretty critical to continue evaluating the efficacy and limitations of telemedicine in order to maintain equal access to medical service and high-quality medical education. A new concept as telemedicine-medical "snack community"-PHS ecosystem, where the psychological health education system and partners healthcare system with enough bandwidth, especially 5G technology, could optimize the effect of telemedicine on medical practice and education, is proposed.
RESUMO
The increasing interest in RNA modifications has significantly advanced epigenomic and epitranscriptomic technologies. This study focuses on the immuno-oncological impact of ALYREF in human cancer through a pan-cancer analysis, enhancing understanding of this gene's role in cancer. We observed differential ALYREF expression between tumor and normal samples, correlating strongly with prognosis in various cancers, particularly kidney renal papillary cell carcinoma (KIRP) and liver hepatocellular carcinoma (LIHC). ALYREF showed a negative correlation with most tumor-infiltrating cells in lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC) and lymphoid neoplasm diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBC), while positive correlations were noted in LIHC, kidney chromophobe (KICH), mesothelioma (MESO), KIRP, pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma (PARD), and glioma (GBMLGG). Additionally, ALYREF expression was closely associated with tumor heterogeneity, stemness indices, and a high mutation rate in TP53 across these cancers. In conclusion, ALYREF may serve as an oncogenic biomarker in numerous cancers, meriting further research attention.

Numerous research works have emphasized the critical role that circadian rhythm plays in the tumor microenvironment (TME). The goal of clarifying chrono-pharmacological strategies for improving cancer treatment in clinical settings is a continuous endeavor. Consequently, to enhance the use of time-based pharmaceutical therapies in oncology, combining existing knowledge on circadian rhythms' roles within the TME is essential. This perspective elucidates the functions of circadian rhythms in the TME across various stages of cancer development, progression, and metastasis. Specifically, aging, angiogenesis, and inflammation are implicated in modulating circadian rhythm within the TME. Furthermore, circadian rhythm exerts a profound influence on current cancer treatments and thereby generates chronotheray to manage tumors. From a TME perspective, circadian rhythm offers promising opportunities for cancer prevention and treatment; nevertheless, further study is needed to address unanswered scientific problems.
RESUMO
Purpose: We aimed to make a general comparison between the safety and feasibility of a novel robotic platform, da Vinci® single-port (SP) system with conventional robotic multiport (MP) and laparoendoscopic single-site systems (da Vinci Xi or Si) in three upper urinary tract procedures including robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN), robot-assisted pyeloplasty (RAP), and robot-assisted adrenalectomy (RA). Materials and Methods: After systematical searching of the literature up to October 2022 in PubMed®, Web of Science™, and the Cochrane Library and Scopus® databases, we extracted and processed the data in eligible literature for operative time, warm ischemia time (WIT), morphine milligram equivalent (MME), postoperative complications, and positive surgical margins (PSMs). Results: A total of 752 patients who underwent robotic surgery for SP or MP from 11 articles were included in this meta-analysis. There was no statistically significant difference in operative time for either RAPN (standardized mean difference [SMD] -0.14, 95% confidence interval [CI] -0.30 to 0.03) or RA (SMD -0.51, 95% CI -1.08 to 0.06). However, for RAP, SP can save operation time (SMD -0.73, 95% CI -1.24 to -0.22). The introduction of SP did not increase complications to any degree, including total complication (risk ratio [RR] 0.89, 95% CI 0.52-1.53), minor complication (RR 0.43, 95% CI 0.13-1.36), and major complication (RR 0.85, 95% CI 0.34-2.09), nor the incidence of PSMs (RR 1.04, 95% CI 0.54-1.99). It is worth noting that although the SP system increased WIT (SMD 0.44, 95% CI 0.26-0.62), it had the benefit of reducing intraoperative pain for RAPN with regard of MME (SMD -0.40, 95% CI -0.71 to -0.09). Conclusions: In terms of postoperative pain, SP robotic surgery is beneficial for RAPN but will make WIT prolonged. RAP is probably the most suitable upper urinary tract procedure for which SP is an option, which helps to shorten the surgery time and achieve a minimally invasive wound at the same time. Our study has been registered in PROSPERO (Registration No.: CRD42022350317).

BACKGROUND: Prostate cancer (PCa) is usually considered as cold tumor. Malignancy is associated with cell mechanic changes that contribute to extensive cell deformation required for metastatic dissemination. Thus, we established stiff and soft tumor subtypes for PCa patients from perspective of membrane tension. METHODS: Nonnegative matrix factorization algorithm was used to identify molecular subtypes. We completed analyses using software R 3.6.3 and its suitable packages. RESULTS: We constructed stiff and soft tumor subtypes using eight membrane tension-related genes through lasso regression and nonnegative matrix factorization analyses. We found that patients in stiff subtype were more prone to biochemical recurrence than those in soft subtype (HR 16.18; p < 0.001), which was externally validated in other three cohorts. The top ten mutation genes between stiff and soft subtypes were DNAH, NYNRIN, PTCHD4, WNK1, ARFGEF1, HRAS, ARHGEF2, MYOM1, ITGB6 and CPS1. E2F targets, base excision repair and notch signaling pathway were highly enriched in stiff subtype. Stiff subtype had significantly higher TMB and T cells follicular helper levels than soft subtype, as well as CTLA4, CD276, CD47 and TNFRSF25. CONCLUSIONS: From the perspective of cell membrane tension, we found that stiff and soft tumor subtypes were closely associated with BCR-free survival for PCa patients, which might be important for the future research in the field of PCa.

BACKGROUND: Cellular senescence is growing in popularity in cancer. A dual function is played by the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) that senescent cells produce in the development of pro-inflammatory niches, tissue regeneration or destruction, senescence propagation, and malignant transformation. In this study, we conducted thorough bioinformatic analysis and meta-analysis to discover detrimental and beneficial subtypes and prognostic index for prostate cancer (PCa) patients using the experimentally confirmed SASP genes. METHODS: We identified differentially expressed and prognosis-related SASP genes and used them to construct two molecular subtypes and risk score. Another two external cohorts were used to confirm the prognostic effect of the above subtypes and risk score and meta-analysis was further conducted. Additionally, functional analysis, tumor stemness and heterogeneity and tumor microenvironment were also evaluated. We completed analyses using software R 3.6.3 and its suitable packages. Meta-analysis was performed by software Stata 14.0. RESULTS: Through multivariate Cox regression analysis and consensus clustering analysis, we used VGF, IGFBP3 and ANG to establish detrimental and beneficial subtypes in the TCGA cohort, which was validated through other two independent cohorts. Meta-analysis showed that detrimental SASP group had significantly higher risk of biochemical recurrence (BCR) than beneficial SASP group (HR: 2.48). Moreover, we also constructed and validated risk score based on these genes to better guide clinical practice. DNA repair, MYC target, oxidative phosphorylation, proteasome and ribosome were highly enriched in detrimental SASP group. Detrimental SASP group had significantly higher levels of B cells, CD8+ T cells, homologous recombination deficiency, loss of heterozygosity, microsatellite instability, purity, tumor mutation burden, mRNAsi, differentially methylated probes and epigenetically regulated RNA expression than beneficial SASP group. The top mutation genes between detrimental and beneficial SASP groups were SPOP, FOXA1, KMT2C, APC, BSN, DNAH17, MYH6, EPPK1, ZNF536 and ZC3H13 with statistical significance. CONCLUSIONS: From perspective of SASP, we found detrimental and beneficial tumor subtypes which were closely associated with BCR-free survival for PCa patients, which might be important for the furture research in the field of PCa.
