Signal Transduction Mechanisms of Focal Adhesions: Src and FAK-Mediated Cell Response.
Cell-to-substrate adhesion sites, also known as focal adhesion sites (FAs), are complexes of different proteins on the cell surface. FAs play important roles in communication between cells and the extracellular matrix (ECM), leading to signal transduction involving different proteins that ultimately produce the cell response. This cell response involves cell adhesion, migration, motility, cell survival, and cell proliferation. The most important component of FAs are integrins. Integrins are transmembrane proteins that receive signals from the ECM and communicate them to the cytoplasm, thus activating several downstream proteins in a signaling cascade. Cellular Proto-oncogene tyrosine-protein kinase Src (c-Src) and focal adhesion kinase (FAK) are non-receptor tyrosine kinases that functionally interact to promote crucial roles in FAs. c-Src is a tyrosine kinase, activated by autophosphorylation and, in turn, activates another important protein, FAK. Activated FAK directly interacts with the cytoplasmic domain of integrin and activates other FA proteins by attaching to them. These proteins activated by FAK then activate other downstream pathways such as mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and Akt pathways involved in cell proliferation, migration, and cell survival. Src can induce detachment of FAK from the integrin to increase the focal adhesion turnover. As a result, the Src-FAK complex in FAs is critical for cell adhesion and survival mechanisms. Overexpression of FA proteins has been linked to a variety of pathological disorders, including cancers, growth retardation, and bone deformities. FAK and Src are overexpressed in various cancers. This review, which focuses on the roles of two important signaling proteins, c-Src and FAK, attempts to provide a thorough and up-to-date examination of the signal transduction mechanisms mediated by focal adhesions. The author also described that FAK and Src may serve as potential targets for future therapies against diseases associated with their overexpression, such as certain types of cancer.

Gremlin-2 is a novel tumor suppressor that negatively regulates ID1 in breast cancer.
Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers in women and is closely associated with obesity. Gremlin-2 (GREM2), an antagonist for bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs), has been considered an inhibitor of adipogenic differentiation in adipose-derived stromal/stem cells. However, the role of GREM2 in breast cancer cells remains largely unknown, and its signaling mechanism has yet to be clarified.

Multiple myeloma long-term survivors exhibit sustained immune alterations decades after first-line therapy.
The long-term consequences of cancer and its therapy on the patients' immune system years after cancer-free survival remain poorly understood. Here, we present an in-depth characterization of the bone marrow immune ecosystem of multiple myeloma long-term survivors, from initial diagnosis up to 17 years following a single therapy line and cancer-free survival. Using comparative single-cell analyses combined with molecular, genomic, and functional approaches, we demonstrate that multiple myeloma long-term survivors exhibit pronounced alterations in their bone marrow microenvironment associated with impaired immunity. These immunological alterations were frequently linked to an inflammatory immune circuit fueled by the long-term persistence or resurgence of residual myeloma cells. Notably, even in the complete absence of any detectable residual disease for decades, sustained changes in the immune system were observed, suggesting an irreversible 'immunological scarring' caused by the initial exposure to the cancer and therapy. Collectively, our study provides key insights into the molecular and cellular bone marrow ecosystem of long-term survivors of multiple myeloma, revealing both reversible and irreversible alterations in the immune compartment.

Protocol for a multicentric, double-blind, randomised controlled trial of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) versus sham for treating vaso-occlusive crisis (VOC) in sickle cell disease (SCD) in patients aged 8 years or older (HBOT-SCD study).
Sickle cell disease (SCD) is one of the most common genetic diseases in the world, annually affecting approximately 310 000 births and causing >100 000 deaths. Vaso-occlusive crisis (VOC) is the most frequent complication of SCD, leading to bone pain, thoracic pain (acute chest syndrome) and/or abdominal spasms. It is the main cause of mortality in patients with SCD, reducing life expectancy. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is a safe and well-established method of increasing tissue oxygen delivery immediately by up to 10-fold to 20-fold. In the context of VOC, HBOT has the potential to limit sickling. A previous pilot study of nine patients showed the safety and potential benefits of HBOT on VOC-induced pain. Our study aimed to assess the clinical safety and effectiveness of HBOT for treating VOC, its biological mechanisms of actions and its cost-effectiveness.

[Preventive activities in women: PAPPS 2024 update].
In the 2024 PAPPS update, we present preventive activities specific to women's health, except those related to cancer prevention (which are included in another document) and aspects related to differential morbidity of gender, which is a cross-cutting element for all working groups. Contraception is an essential preventive activity; the right to decide both the number of children that they will have and when to have them is considered basic. We must inform about contraceptive methods, guaranteeing in follow-up their safety, efficacy, and effectiveness (tables are included on changing from one method to another to preserve contraceptive protection). We must inform about emergency contraception and propose it in in the event of unprotected intercourse. We will use opportunistic screening to do this, without needing to screen for thrombophilia or dyslipidaemia, but we will screen for hypertension. Pregnancy is a major life experience and general practitioners should not ignore it. We should be competent at both preconception consultation (recommend folic acid intake, avoiding exposure to occupational and environmental hazards, screen for certain pathologies, and assess the intake of medication not indicated during pregnancy) and during follow-up of pregnancy. Whether or not we follow-up the pregnancy, we should not fail to monitor it, taking advantage of this period to promote healthy lifestyles and manage potential intercurrent events. Menopause in general and osteoporosis in particular exemplify the strategy of medicalising life events that has been followed by different bodies and organisations. In our update we address the prevention and treatment of symptoms secondary to oestrogen deprivation. We also propose osteoporosis prevention, including bone density scanning according to the fracture risk in the next 10 years, therefore, bone density screening is not recommended in women under 60 years of age. We recommend the FRAX tool for assessing risk, or better, measuring hip fracture risk with prevalence data from the Community of Madrid. The indication for treatment is linked to the Z-score (bone mineral density compared with women of the same age), since this is a condition associated with aging, and not the T-score, which is used to compare women of 20 years of age.

Autologous stem cell transplantation for multiple myeloma patients whose myeloma-defining event was SLiM.
In 2014, the International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) updated the criteria for diagnosing myeloma and added three additional criteria to the traditional Calcium elevation, Renal impairment, Anemia, Bone disease (CRAB) criteria, called the Sixty % marrow plama cells, Light chain ratio >60, Mri demonstates lytic lesions (SLiM) criteria (clonal bone marrow plasma cells ≥60%, involved to uninvolved free light chain ratio (FLCr) ≥100 and >1 focal lesion on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)). We report on the outcomes of 30 patients who underwent autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) where therapy was initiated solely based on SLiM criteria and compared them to a matched cohort of 60 patients whose myeloma-defining event was CRAB. The SLiM cohort had a shorter median time to neutrophil (15 vs. 16 days, p = 0.049) and platelet (15 vs. 17 days, p = 0.0004) engraftment. The 36-month overall survival (OS) was 100% in the SLiM group and 93.27% in the control group (95% CI 83.06%-97.42%), with a trend towards longer OS in the SLiM cohort (p = 0.065). The 36-month progression-free survival (PFS) was 91.61% in the SLiM (95% CI 69.93%-97.87%) and 65.95% in the control group (95% CI 52.31%-76.53%). There was no difference in the PFS between the cohorts (p = 0.414). ASCT is efficacious and safe in MM patients transplanted only due to SLIM criteria. Early intervention in this asymptomatic cohort did not appear to result in deeper responses or better PFS compared to outcomes in symptomatic patients.

Disruption of distal appendage protein CEP164 causes skeletal malformation in mice.
The primary cilium is a cellular antenna to orchestrate cell growth and differentiation. Deficient or dysfunctional cilia are frequently linked to skeletal abnormalities. Previous research demonstrated that ciliary proteins regulating axoneme elongation are essential for skeletogenesis. However, the role of the ciliary proteins responsible for initiating cilium assembly in skeletal development remains unknown. Here, we investigate the function of centrosomal protein of 164 kDa (CEP164), a key ciliogenesis regulator that localizes at the distal appendages of the mother centriole, during skeletal development in mice. Interestingly, the mesodermal cell-specific Cep164 deletion resulted in severe bone defects and osteoblast-specific deletion of Cep164 affected bone development. In contrast, chondrocyte-specific Cep164 deletion did not cause overt skeletal abnormalities, indicating that CEP164 functions in a cell type-specific manner within skeletal tissues. Importantly, Cep164-mutant osteoblasts not only displayed a lack of cilia but also showed an increased number of γH2AX-positive cells, indicating the involvement of defective DNA damage response in the etiology of skeletal lesions of Cep164-mutant mice. These results demonstrate that CEP164 has both ciliary and non-ciliary functions to control osteoblast growth and survival. Our study therefore reveals a novel understanding of the pathogenesis of skeletal ciliopathies associated with CEP164 dysfunction.

Compound-dependent fetal toxicity after in utero exposure to chemotherapy in a pregnant mouse model.
Although chemotherapy is integrated in the treatment of second-trimester pregnant cancer patients, its potential cyto- and genotoxicity to fetal tissue remains unknown. To investigate any causal relation between in utero chemotherapy exposure and fetal toxicity, late-gestation pregnant BL6 mice were exposed to vehicle, or one of six chemotherapeutic compounds, used to treat pregnant cases: cyclophosphamide, carboplatin, cisplatin (alkylating agents), epirubicin, doxorubicin (anthracyclines) or paclitaxel (taxane). fetuses were euthanized at gestational day 18.5, after 48hours of in utero exposure. Fetuses in utero exposed to alkylating agents presented with morphological changes in liver, bone marrow and thymus. Furthermore, decreased expression of Ki67, and increased expression of caspase-3 and P-H2AX markers, pointed to inhibited proliferation and increased apoptosis and DNA-double stranded breaks respectively, in several fetal tissues. Moderate toxicity was seen after in utero exposure to anthracyclines and taxanes. These findings emphasize the importance of investigating fetal toxicity in the clinical setting.

Development of a nomogram for predicting cancer pain in lung cancer patients: An observational study.
During the progression of lung cancer, cancer pain is a common complication. Currently, there are no accurate tools or methods to predict the occurrence of cancer pain in lung cancer. Our study aims to construct a predictive model for lung cancer pain to assist in the early diagnosis of cancer pain and improve prognosis. We retrospectively collected clinical data from 300 lung cancer patients between March 2013 and March 2023. First, we compared the clinical data of the groups with and without cancer pain. Significant factors were further screened using random forest analysis (IncMSE% > 2) to identify those with significant differences. Finally, these factors were incorporated into a multifactorial logistic regression model to develop a predictive model for lung cancer pain. The predictive accuracy and performance of the model were assessed using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, calibration curves, and decision curve analysis (DCA) analysis. Our study collected data from 300 lung cancer patients, including 100 in the pain-free group and 200 in the pain group. Subsequently, we conducted univariate analysis on 22 factors and selected statistically significant factors using random forest methods. Ultimately, lymphocytes(LYM) percentage, bone metastasis, tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα), and interleukin-6 (IL6) were identified as key factors. These 4 factors were included in a multivariate logistic regression analysis to construct a predictive model for lung cancer pain. The model demonstrated good predictive ability, with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.852 (95% CI: 0.806-0.899). The calibration curve indicated that the model has good accuracy in predicting the risk of lung cancer pain. DCA further emphasized the model's high accuracy. The model was finally validated using 5-fold cross-validation. We developed a reliable predictive model for cancer pain in lung cancer. This can provide a theoretical basis for future large-sample, multi-center studies and may also assist in the early prevention and intervention of cancer pain in lung cancer.

The effect and mechanism of IL-37d on neutrophil recruitment in the early stage of tumor metastasis in the lungs.
Chronic inflammation plays a pivotal role in cancer progression, with tumor-associated neutrophils (TANs) actively shaping the pre-metastatic niche. Interleukin-37 (IL-37), a known immunosuppressive cytokine, is implicated in this regulation, although its precise function remains underexplored.Therefore, this study seeks to further elucidate the inhibitory effect of IL-37d on neutrophil recruitment within the pre-metastatic lung microenvironment and its underlying mechanisms, thereby providing a theoretical foundation for clinical interventions in the early stages of cancer progression.

Prostate cancer presenting as an oral swelling-A case report.
Tumour metastasis to the jaw is an uncommon finding. When it does present, it is usually evidence of widespread metastatic disease and represents an unfavourable prognostic indicator. The clinical presentation of metastatic disease in the jaw can vary and may occur in the oral soft tissues, subcutaneous tissues adjacent to bone, mandible or maxillary alveolus and can mimic dental pathology. The radiographic appearance of metastatic disease is most commonly an expansive, lytic lesion with irregular borders. This case report describes the presentation of an otherwise medically well 76-year-old male patient to his dentist with a mobile lower left pre-molar. Following extraction of the tooth, a rapid increase in the jaw swelling resulted in further medical investigation, leading to a diagnosis of metastatic prostate cancer. This case serves to remind dental practitioners to remain vigilant when dental treatment of seemingly obvious dental pathology does not resolve within the expected timeframe, and to maintain a low threshold for medical review and investigation when suspicious lesions arise. This is particularly relevant in the older patient when the incidence of other diseases, such as cancer, is more common.

Identification and validation of a novel prognostic model based on anoikis‑related genes in acute myeloid leukemia.
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a hematological cancer prevalent worldwide. Anoikis-related genes (ARGs) are crucial in the progression of cancer and metastasis of tumors. However, their role in AML needs to be clarified. In the present study, differential analysis was performed on data from The Cancer Genome Atlas database to identify differentially expressed ARGs (DE-ARGs). Subsequently, a prognostic model for patients with AML was constructed using univariate Cox, Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator and multivariate Cox regression analyses. This model was based on four key DE-ARGs [lectin galactoside-binding soluble 1 (LGALS1), integrin subunit α 4 (ITGA4), hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) and Ras homolog gene family member C (RHOC)]. Independent prognostic factors for AML included prior treatment, age, risk scores and diagnosis. A nomogram was constructed based on these factors to aid clinical decision-making. Furthermore, bone marrow samples were collected from individuals diagnosed with AML and healthy donors to validate the expression of the identified ARGs using reverse transcription-quantitative PCR. The mRNA levels of LGALS1 and RHOC were significantly higher, while those of ITGA4 and HGF were significantly lower in patients with AML than in healthy donors (all P<0.05). The results of the present study expands the understanding of the function of ARGs in AML, providing a new theoretical basis for the treatment of AML.

A clinical study of autologous chimeric antigen receptor macrophage targeting mesothelin shows safety in ovarian cancer therapy.
CAR-macrophage has promising prospect in treating solid tumors, due to its high infiltration into tumors, and its dual roles in phagocytosis and immune modulation. Here we show the clinical results of CAR-macrophage treatment of two ovarian cancer patients. The CAR-macrophages were produced by introducing a mesothelin targeting CAR to patients' primary peripheral blood mononuclear cell-derived macrophages, and the products were infused to patients intravenously. Our data show good safety of the infusion product, and the efficacy can be further improved. Intraperitoneal infusion of CAR-macrophages has proven effective in treating intraperitoneal tumors in a preclinical model, paving the way for demonstrating proof-of-concept clinical efficacy of CAR-macrophages in the treatment of intraperitoneal tumors.

Pericytes require physiological oxygen tension to maintain phenotypic fidelity.
Pericytes function to maintain tissue homeostasis by regulating capillary blood flow and maintaining endothelial barrier function. Pericyte dysfunction is associated with various pathologies and has recently been found to aid cancer progression. Despite having critical functions in health and disease, pericytes remain an understudied population due to a lack of model systems which accurately reflect in vivo biology. In this study we developed a protocol to isolate and culture murine lung, brain, bone, and liver pericytes, that maintains their known phenotypes and functions. We demonstrate that pericytes, being inherently plastic, benefit from controlled oxygen tension culture conditions, aiding their expansion ex vivo.

High level of circulating cell-free tumor DNA at diagnosis correlates with disease spreading and defines multiple myeloma patients with poor prognosis.
Multiple myeloma (MM) is a plasma cell (PC) disorder characterized by skeletal involvement at the time of diagnosis. Recently, cell-free DNA (cfDNA) has been proven to recapitulate the heterogeneity of bone marrow (BM) disease. Our aim was to evaluate the prognostic role of cfDNA at diagnosis according to disease distribution, and to investigate the role of the MM microenvironment inflammatory state in supplying the release of cfDNA. A total of 162 newly diagnosed MM patients were screened using 18F-FDG PET/CT and assessed by ultra low-pass whole genome sequencing (ULP-WGS). High cfDNA tumor fraction (ctDNA) levels were correlated with different tumor mass markers, and patients with high ctDNA levels at diagnosis were more likely to present with metabolically active paraskeletal (PS) and extramedullary (EM) lesions. Moreover, we demonstrated that microenvironment cancer-associated fibroblast (CAFs)-mediated inflammation might correlate with high ctDNA levels. Indeed, a high cfDNA TF level at diagnosis predicted a poorer prognosis, independent of R-ISS III and 1q amplification; the inclusion of >12% ctDNA in the current R-ISS risk score enables a better identification of high-risk patients. ctDNA can be a reliable and less invasive marker for disease characterization, and can refine patient risk.

Painful scoliosis in an adolescent: a diagnostic dilemma.
Osteoid osteoma is a benign bone-forming tumour, seen more frequently in males than females, during the first three decades of their life. It accounts for 3% of all bone neoplasms and 10-12% of benign bone lesions. The spine is involved in approximately 10-20% of cases. A teenage boy presented with complaints of low back pain and spinal deformity for 2 years. He was previously treated for tuberculosis of that same segment empirically. A whole-body PET scan was taken, which revealed the presence of osteoid osteoma. The patient underwent complete resection of the osteoid osteoma from the L3-L4 facet joint and transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion. The patient had good pain relief following the procedure, and he was able to carry out all his daily activities on a 1-year follow-up with no recurrence.

Osteosarcopenic adiposity and its relation to cancer and chronic diseases: Implications for research to delineate mechanisms and improve clinical outcomes.
This is the third review in our series examining the connection between osteosarcopenic adiposity/obesity (OSA/OSO) syndrome and health impairments. The objective here was to examine whether there is a causal and/or bidirectional relationship between OSA and some chronic diseases. The search (in PubMed, Scopus, and WoS), screened for articles from their inception to the end of February 2024. Of n=859 articles retrieved, eleven met the eligibility criteria (having all three body composition compartments measured-bone, muscle, adipose tissue and being conducted in adult humans with chronic disease). The selected articles included four assessing OSA and cancers, one each assessing OSA and HIV, Cushing's disease (CD), chronic kidney disease (CKD), pulmonary function, and two for alcohol abuse-caused liver disease, as well as one 6-year study showing the progression to OSA over time. There was a positive relationship between OSA and each of the chronic diseases, as well as a possible bidirectional relationship between OSA and cancers. The evidence linking OSA with HIV, CD, CKD, liver disease, and pulmonary function, was insufficient to derive firm conclusions about their causal/bidirectional relations. This review emphasizes the need for a multidisciplinary approach in the management and treatment of chronic diseases where body composition assessment should get full attention. To close the knowledge gap, more studies about the role of OSA in chronic diseases are needed.

miRNA signatures affecting the survival outcome in distant metastasis of triple-negative breast cancer.
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) constitutes for 10-15% of all breast cancer cases. Tumor heterogeneity, high invasiveness, distant metastasis, lack of estrogen receptors, progesterone receptors, and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 expression contribute to TNBC associated with poor overall survival outcomes amongst diseased individuals. The disparity in clinico-pathological and metastatic patterns to distant sites has substantially enhanced the incidences of tumor recurrence. Survival outcomes amongst metastatic TNBC patients are worse in comparison to non-metastatic TNBC counterparts. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have emerged as significant drivers to function either as oncogene or tumor suppressors by exerting modulating effects on the expression of target genes in the TNBC tumor microenvironment. The pleiotropic nature of miRNAs expands their preclinical and clinical utility in combating both metastatic and non-metastatic TNBC cases and thereby improves their survival outcomes. The present review article aims to highlight the varying survival outcomes in metastatic and non-metastatic TNBC cases. The present review article emphasizes the therapeutic and prognostic potential of miRNAs in TNBC to improve survival outcomes by retarding distant metastasis to lung, bone, brain, and lymph nodes.

COPS5 regulates osteosarcoma progression by upregulating KHSRP to promote Per2 mRNA decay.
Osteosarcoma (OS) is a common bone sarcoma that is often seen in children and adolescents. This study delves into the intricate regulatory network involving COP9 signalosome subunit 5 (COPS5), KH-type splicing regulatory protein (KHSRP), and Period circadian clock 2 (Per2) in the context of osteosarcoma cell malignant phenotype. CCK-8 assay was applied to assess cell proliferation. Wound healing or transwell assay was selected to evaluate cell migration or invasion. Apoptosis was determined employing flow cytometry assay. Co-IP and GST-pull down determined the interaction between COPS5 and KHSRP. The interaction relationship between KHSRP and Per2 mRNA was detected by RNA-pull down and RIP assays. We found that COPS5 knockdown repressed proliferation, migration, and invasion and facilitated apoptosis of OS cells. Knockdown of COPS5 also restrained the tumor growth in the nude mice tumor xenograft model. COPS5 interacted with KHSRP to maintain the protein stability of KHSRP. Furthermore, there was a binding relationship between KHSRP and Per2 mRNA. Besides, COPS5 promoted OS cell tumorigenesis by mediating the decay effect of KHSRP on Per2 mRNA. Collectively, COPS5 promoted the decay of Per2 mRNA via contacting and mediating KHSRP, thereby facilitating OS progression. Our study unveils COPS5 as a key modulator in OS.

The additive effect of 17β-estradiol on the modulation of electrochemotherapy with calcium ions or cisplatin in human clear carcinoma cells.
Calcium electroporation (CaEP) is an efficient approach for ovarian cancer treatment. It causes cell death by introducing elevated levels of calcium into cells. In this work, the research focused on two types of cell lines: CHO-K1, representing normal ovary cells, and OvBH-1, representing ovarian clear carcinoma cells. Those cell lines exhibited distinct reactions to calcium electroporation (CaEP).

Cardiac Abnormalities in Hypereosinophilic Syndromes.
Hypereosinophilia (HE) is defined as an eosinophil count exceeding 1500 cells/microL in peripheral blood in two tests, performed with an interval of at least one month and/or anatomopathological confirmation of HE, with eosinophils comprising more than 20% of all nucleated cells in the bone marrow. Hypereosinophilic syndrome (HES) indicates the presence of HE with organ involvement due to eosinophil action, which can be classified as primary (or neoplastic), secondary (or reactive), and idiopathic. Cardiac involvement occurs in up to 5% of cases in the acute phase and 20% of the chronic phase of the disease, ranging from oligosymptomatic cases to fulminant acute myocarditis or chronic restrictive cardiomyopathy (Loeffler endomyocarditis). However, the degree of cardiac dysfunction does not directly correlate with the degree of eosinophilia. The cardiac involvement of HES occurs in three phases: initial necrotic, thrombotic, and finally necrotic. It can manifest as heart failure, arrhythmias, and thromboembolic phenomena. The diagnosis of cardiopathy is based on multimodality imaging, with an emphasis on the importance of echocardiography (echo) as the primary examination. TTE with enhanced ultrasound agents can be used for better visualization, allowing greater accuracy in assessing ventricular apex, and myocardial deformation indices, such as longitudinal strain, may be reduced, especially in the ventricular apex (reverse apical sparing). Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging allows the characterization of subendocardial late gadolinium enhancement, and endomyocardial biopsy is considered the gold standard in diagnosing cardiopathy. Treatment is based on the etiology of HES.

REGAL: galinpepimut-S vs. best available therapy as maintenance therapy for acute myeloid leukemia in second remission.
Patients with relapsed or refractory (r/r) acute myeloid leukemia (AML) have very poor long-term outcomes. Allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT) can potentially cure some of these patients who are able to achieve a second or greater remission with salvage chemotherapy. Unfortunately, several barriers exist to transplantation and not all patients with r/r AML are able to proceed to allo-SCT. Therefore, novel therapies to decrease the risk of relapse in these patients are urgently needed. Wilms tumor 1 (WT1) protein has emerged as an encouraging vaccine target in AML due to its overexpression in leukemic blast cells and near absence in normal hematopoietic cells. Maintenance therapy with galinpepimut-S, a multivalent heteroclitic WT1 peptide vaccine, holds promise in early phase trials, in patients with AML by inducing a strong innate immune response against the WT1 antigen, leading to the design of this international, open-label, randomized clinical trial, named REGAL. Clinical trial registration: https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT04229979. The clinical trial identifier is NCT04229979.

Primary breast myeloid sarcoma: A case report and literature review.
Myeloid sarcoma (MS) is a rare extramedullary tumor originating from immature bone marrow cells. MS of the breast is an extremely uncommon disease with non-specific clinical and radiological features. The present case report describes a distinctive case of MS of the breast, which posed diagnostic challenges due to the absence of typical imaging characteristics at the time of presentation. The patient was a 58-year-old woman who presented with a breast mass. Further examination and testing confirmed the diagnosis of MS in the right breast, with metastases to the right iliac, pubic and ischial regions. Immunohistochemical analysis identified metastatic tumors distinguished by the expression of a number of markers, including Ki-67, myeloperoxidase and cluster of differentiation 43. The patient underwent six cycles of chemotherapy with a regimen comprising etoposide, methylprednisolone, cytarabine and cisplatin, and 28 cycles (56 cGy each) of consolidation radiotherapy. Extensive examination and long-term follow-up revealed no further tumor recurrence or metastasis. Myeloid sarcomas of the breast typically manifest as palpable masses requiring diagnostic imaging. However, due to the rarity of MS of the breast without any signs of leukemia, its diagnosis and treatment are challenging. The present case report highlights the importance of maintaining high clinical, radiological and pathological standards when diagnosing this disease. Additionally, a comprehensive review of the literature on breast MS is provided. This highlights the necessity for clinicians to consider this rare diagnosis in patients presenting with a breast mass, to facilitate the appropriate treatment and prevent unnecessary procedures such as mastectomies.

Significance of exosomes in osteosarcoma research: a systematic review and meta-analysis of a singular clinical investigation.
Osteosarcoma is the most prevalent among primary bone malignancies, and its standard intervention involves neoadjuvant chemotherapy - surgical adjuvant chemotherapy (MAP regimen) with adriamycin, cisplatin, and high-dose methotrexate. Early-stage osteosarcoma can be effectively treated with surgical resection along with chemotherapy or radiotherapy. However, as the cancer progresses, the efficacy of chemo- and radiotherapy decreases, and the associated problems increase. The current understanding of osteosarcoma development, diagnosis, and treatment does not meet clinical demands. More recently, there has been a significant increase in exosome-associated osteosarcoma research, potentially opening up novel possibilities for osteosarcoma research.

The Role of Delayed Imaging at MRI in Rare Non-enhancing Prostate Cancer Brain Metastases: A Case Report.
Brain metastases in prostate cancer are rare (<2% of cases). In magnetic resonance imaging, nearly all brain metastases exhibit contrast-enhancement, which may be affected by the time elapsed since the administration of the contrast agent. We discuss a case where the brain metastases in a patient with prostate cancer do not show a clear contrast-enhancement on magnetic resonance imaging using a standard brain metastases protocol. It also emphasizes the usefulness of delayed imaging in identifying blood-brain barrier damage. We present the case of a 69-year-old man diagnosed with prostate adenocarcinoma, currently in castration-resistant phase (last value of serum prostate-specific antigen: 45.1 ng/mL) with bone, mediastinal and inguinal lymph nodes, pulmonary, and hepatic metastases. In a contrast-enhanced whole-body computed tomography examination, the appearance of intra-axial brain lesions suspicious for metastases was documented. The subsequent contrast-enhanced brain magnetic resonance imaging showed the presence of 5 intra-axial lesions consistent with brain metastases. These lesions exhibited hyperintense signals in T2-fluid-attenuated inversion recovery images; after contrast agent administration, a ring-like contrast-enhancement was more clearly visible in T1-weighted images acquired later (about 15 minutes after contrast agent administration) than in those acquired earlier (about 5-7 minutes after contrast agent administration). In conclusion, for oncological subjects with multiple brain lesions lacking obvious contrast-enhancement using a standard magnetic resonance imaging protocol, we suggest acquiring late images. These might allow for the detection of even minimal post-contrast impregnation, improving confidence in the diagnosis of brain metastases.

Molecular mechanism of bone metastasis in breast cancer.
Bone metastasis is a debilitating complication that frequently occurs in the advanced stages of breast cancer. However, the underlying molecular and cellular mechanisms of the bone metastasis remain unclear. Here, we elucidate how bone metastasis arises from tumor cells that detach from the primary lesions and infiltrate into the surrounding tissue, as well as how these cells disseminate to distant sites. Specifically, we elaborate how tumor cells preferentially grow within the bone micro-environment and interact with bone cells to facilitate bone destruction, characterized as osteoclastic bone metastasis, as well as new bone matrix deposition, characterized as osteoblastic bone metastasis. We also updated the current understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying bone metastasis and reasons for relapse in breast cancer, and also opportunities of developing novel diagnostic approaches and treatment.

Neutrophil extracellular traps promote tumor chemoresistance to anthracyclines.
The microenvironment plays an important role in promoting tumor cell chemoresistance, but the mechanisms responsible for this effect are not clear. Here, using models of multiple myeloma (MM) and solid cancers, we demonstrate a novel mechanism mediated by neutrophils, a major cell population in the bone marrow (BM), that protects cancer cells from chemotherapeutics. We show that in response to tumor-derived soluble factors, BM neutrophils release their DNA in the form of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs). Cell-free DNA derived from NETs is then taken up by tumor cells via endocytosis and localizes to the cytoplasm. We found that both NETs and cell-free DNA taken up by tumor cells can bind anthracyclines, leading to tumor cell resistance to this class of chemotherapeutic agents. Targeting cell-free DNA with Pulmozyme or blocking NET formation with a PAD4 inhibitor abrogates the chemoprotective effect of neutrophils and restores sensitivity of tumor cells to anthracyclines.

Novel CCL3-HMGB1 signaling axis regulating osteocyte RANKL expression in multiple myeloma.
Multiple myeloma (MM) is a clonal plasma cell proliferative malignancy characterized by a debilitating bone disease. Osteolytic destruction, a hallmark of MM, is driven by increased osteoclast number and exacerbated bone resorption, primarily fueled by the excessive production of RANKL, the master regulator of osteoclast formation, within the tumor niche. We previously reported that osteocytes, the most abundant cells in the bone niche, promote tumor progression and support MM bone disease by overproducing RANKL. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying RANKL dysregulation in osteocytes in the context of MM bone disease are not entirely understood. Here, we present evidence that MM-derived CCL3 induces upregulation of RANKL expression in both human and murine osteocytes. Through a combination of in vitro, ex vivo, and in vivo models and clinical data, we demonstrate that genetic or pharmacologic inhibition of CCL3 prevents RANKL upregulation in osteocytes and attenuates the bone loss induced by MM cells. Mechanistic studies revealed that MM-derived CCL3 triggers the secretion of HMGB1 by osteocytes, a process required for osteocytic RANKL upregulation by MM cells. These findings identify a previously unknown CCL3-HMGB1 signaling axis in the MM tumor niche that drives bone resorption by promoting RANKL overproduction in osteocytes.

Methotrexate Versus Mycophenolate Mofetil Prophylaxis in Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation for Chronic Myeloid Malignancies: A Retrospective Analysis on Behalf of the Chronic Malignancies Working Party of the EBMT.
Prophylaxis strategies for Graft versus host disease (GVHD) in allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) frequently encompass a combination of a calcineurin inhibitor (CNI) with either methotrexate (MTX) or mycophenolate mofetil (MMF). The aim of this retrospective, EBMT registry-based study was to determine outcome differences for chronic myeloid malignancies and secondary acute myeloid leukemia (sAML) between MTX- and MMF-based prophylaxis regimens while taking potential heterogeneity between subgroups into consideration. Eligible were patients transplanted between 2007 and 2017 who received either MTX- or MMF prophylaxis in combination with a CNI. Endpoints after allo-HCT were overall survival, relapse-free survival (RFS), relapse incidence, non-relapse mortality (NRM), and Grades 2-4 acute GVHD (aGvHD). Overall, 13 699 patients from 321 centers were included. Median follow-up was 42.8 months (IQR 19.8-74.5 months). MTX prophylaxis was associated with reduced overall mortality (HR 0.87, 95% CI 0.81-0.95, p = 0.001) and NRM (HR 0.86, 95% CI 0.78-0.96, p = 0.006) compared with MMF in multivariable Cox regression models in the whole cohort without significant interaction between prophylaxis and subgroups. In contrast, there was no significant association of prophylaxis with risk of relapse (HR 1.03 MTX vs. MMF, 95% CI 0.94-1.14, p = 0.53) or RFS (HR 0.95, 95% CI 0.88-1.01, p = 0.12). There was a reduced risk of Grades 2-4 acute GVHD and reduced mortality after acute GVHD with MTX prophylaxis but no association with outcome in a landmark analysis in patients without aGvHD at 3 months after allo-HCT. In conclusion, MTX-complemented CNI prophylaxis was associated with favorable survival, and with favorable survival after aGVHD compared with MMF.

Mesenchymal stem cells treated with Interleukin-1 beta for mediation of an inflammatory response in human tissues.
The present study examined the functional activities of the human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBM-MSCs) under the effects of various concentrations of the inflammatory mediator interleukin 1 beta (IL-1β). The effects of IL-1β on the functional properties of hBM-MSCs were measured using functional assays (adhesion, proliferation, and migration). hBM-MSCs expressions of colony-stimulating factors 1 and 2 (CSF1, CSF2), C-C chemokine receptor type 2 (CCR2), C-X-C chemokine receptor type 1 and 3 (CXCL1, CXCL3), were examined using real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT‒PCR). The pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-1β did not disrupt hBM-MSCs adhesion, but it improved proliferation and migration only up to 50 ng/ml. However, in response to 100 ng/ml IL-1β, cell growth, proliferation, and migration were reduced significantly. The expression of CSF1, CCR2, CXCL3, and IL-1β genes increased with the increase in the concentration of IL-1β. CSF2 and CXCL1 gene expression increased in the 50ng/ml group compared with the 10ng/ml group to be higher than the control group in the 100ng/ml IL-1β group which might facilitate the differentiation, and homing of MSCs to the site of injury and augment their activities in the inflamed microenvironment. The study corroborates the advantages of prior stimulation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) with the cytokine IL-1β, demonstrating an upregulation of key chemokines and cytokines. This upregulation potentially enhances MSCs' ability to differentiate and migrate to injury sites, while also augmenting their functional role within an inflamed microenvironment, thereby amplifying their therapeutic potential.

TGFβ family signaling in human stem cell self-renewal and differentiation.
Human stem cells are undifferentiated cells with the capacity for self-renewal and differentiation into distinct cell lineages, playing important role in the development and maintenance of diverse tissues and organs. The microenvironment of stem cell provides crucial factors and components that exert significant influence over the determination of cell fate. Among these factors, cytokines from the transforming growth factor β (TGFβ) superfamily, including TGFβ, bone morphogenic protein (BMP), Activin and Nodal, have been identified as important regulators governing stem cell maintenance and differentiation. In this review, we present a comprehensive overview of the pivotal roles played by TGFβ superfamily signaling in governing human embryonic stem cells, somatic stem cells, induced pluripotent stem cells, and cancer stem cells. Furthermore, we summarize the latest research and advancements of TGFβ family in various cancer stem cells and stem cell-based therapy, discussing their potential clinical applications in cancer therapy and regeneration medicine.

Mouse and human macrophages and their roles in cardiovascular health and disease.
The past 15 years have witnessed a leap in understanding the life cycle, gene expression profiles, origins and functions of mouse macrophages in many tissues, including macrophages of the artery wall and heart that have critical roles in cardiovascular health. Here, we review the phenotypical and functional diversity of macrophage populations in multiple organs and discuss the roles that proliferation, survival, and recruitment and replenishment from monocytes have in maintaining macrophages in homeostasis and inflammatory states such as atherosclerosis and myocardial infarction. We also introduce emerging data that better characterize the life cycle and phenotypic profiles of human macrophages. We discuss the similarities and differences between murine and human macrophages, raising the possibility that tissue-resident macrophages in humans may rely more on bone marrow-derived monocytes than in mouse.

Establishment and characterization of NCC-GCTB14-C1 and NCC-GCTB15-C1: two novel patient-derived cell lines of giant cell tumor of bone.
Giant cell tumor of bone (GCTB) is a rare bone tumor that is genetically characterized by a unique mutation in the H3-3A gene. Curative surgical resection is the standard treatment. Unfortunately, a considerable proportion of patients with GCTB have local recurrence and pulmonary metastasis after surgical treatment, and current chemotherapy treatments have shown non-effective. Considering the heterogeneity of the disease, patient-derived cancer models established from multiple cases are required. Therefore, we aimed to establish novel GCTB cell lines for use in preclinical studies. In this study, we successfully established two GCTB cell lines, NCC-GCTB14-C1 and NCC-GCTB15-C1. Both cell lines retained the genetic characteristics of the original tumors, constantly proliferated, and exhibited migratory activity. These cells formed spheroids with morphologically variable phenotypes. We found that they were compatible with chemosensitivity assays, and drug screening using these cell lines led to the identification of potential therapeutic candidates for GCTB. Therefore, NCC-GCTB14-C1 and NCC-GCTB15-C1 may be useful for elucidating the pathogenesis of and developing novel treatments for GCTB.

Construction of AML prognostic model with CYP2E1 and GALNT12 biomarkers based on golgi- associated genes.
Acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) was originally an aggressive malignancy of the bone marrow and one of the deadliest forms of acute leukaemia. The 5-year mortality benefit for patients with AML was only 28.3%. Moreover, a large proportion of patients experienced frequent relapses even after remission, thus predicting a bleak prognosis. This research employed differential expression analysis of AML and normal samples sourced from the GSE30029 database, as well as weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA). We discovered differential golgi apparatus-related genes (DGARGs) specifically associated with AML. Via regressivity analysis and machine learning algorithm, the cancer genome atlas-acute myeloid leukemia (TCGA-AML) cohort developed a prognostic model using characteristic prognostic genes. The performance value of risk score was analysed using Kaplan-Meier (KM) curves and Cox regression. A predictive nomogram was developed to assess the outcome. The association between prognostic trait genes and the immune microenvironment was examined. Finally, immunoactivity and drug susceptibilities were evaluated in various risk groups identified by prognostic signature genes. A total of 77 DGARGs were obtained by differential expression analysis with WGCNA analysis. Following univariate Cox regression and LASSO regression, six prognostic signature genes (ARL5B, GALNT12, MANSC1, PDE4DIP, NCALD and CYP2E1) were utilized to develop a prognostic model. This model was calibrated via KM survival and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, which concluded that it had a predictive impact on the prognosis of AML. Further analysis of the tumour microenvironment in AML patients demonstrated notable variances in immune cell APC_co_inhibition, CCR, Parainflammation, Type_I_IFN_Response, and Type_II_IFN_Response between the high-risk and low-risk groups. A prognostic model was devised in this study using six prognostic genes linked to the Golgi apparatus. The exactness of the model in guiding the prognosis of AML was established. As a result of expression validation, CYP2E1 and GALNT12 will be used as biomarkers to offer fresh insights into the prognosis and treatment of AML patients.

Malignant Bone-Forming Neoplasm With NIPBL::BEND2 Fusion.
Conventional high-grade osteosarcomas are characterized by aggressive radiologic features, cytologic pleomorphism, and complex genomics. However, rare examples of osteosarcomas remain challenging due to unusual histology, such as sclerosing or osteoblastoma-like features, which may require molecular confirmation of their complex genetic alterations. We have encountered such a case in a 17-year-old man, who presented with a third metatarsal sclerotic bone lesion, found incidentally in the work-up of a foot trauma. The initial imaging revealed a lesion with sclerotic/blastic features proximally and lucent/lytic portion distally, findings interpreted consistent with osteoblastoma. The lesion was managed intra-lesionally with curettings and cryoablation; however, the microscopic findings were non-specific, showing a bland osteoblastic proliferation embedded in a densely sclerotic matrix. Subsequently, the patient developed two rapid recurrences; the first recurrence was treated similarly despite its associated soft tissue extension radiographically, and the histologic findings remained non-specific. The 2nd recurrence showed a large mass, with bone destruction and soft tissue extension and an open biopsy revealed features of osteosarcoma with lace-like osteoid deposition, albeit with uniform cytomorphology. The subsequent below knee amputation showed features compatible with high-grade osteosarcoma, including solid growth of uniform epithelioid cells, with vesicular nuclei and scant cytoplasm, set in a lace-like meshwork of osteoid matrix. There was significant mitotic activity and tumor necrosis. Tumor cells were positive for SATB2. Further molecular work-up was performed showing an unexpected NIPBL::BEND2 fusion, which has been previously reported in two cases of phosphaturic mesenchymal tumor (PMT). FGF23 (ISH) was performed and was negative. By DNA methylation profiling, unsupervised clustering and UMAP dimensionality reduction revealed grouping with high-grade osteosarcomas and not with the PMT group. The patient received chemotherapy post-amputation and is alive without evidence of disease, with 10-month follow-up. We report an aggressive, overtly malignant acral bone-forming tumor, harboring a NIPBL::BEND2 fusion. Further studies are needed to evaluate the recurrent potential of this fusion in osteosarcomas and its relationship with PMT.

Epigenetic Modeling of Jumping Translocations of 1q Heterochromatin in Acute Myeloid Leukemia After 5'-Azacytidine Treatment.
Jumping translocations (JT) are rare cytogenetic abnormalities associated with progression in myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Typically, a tri-tetra-somic 1q chromosome is translocated to two or more recipient chromosomes. In multiple myeloma JT were shown to originate after DNA demethylation and decondensation. Using epigenomics, we investigated sequential samples in an SRSF2-mutated MDS and AML cohort with normal karyotype at diagnosis and 1qJT at disease evolution after 5'-azacytidine (AZA). 1qJT breakpoints fell within repetitive DNA at both 1q12 and the translocation partners, namely acrocentrics n. 14, 15, 21, and 22, chromosome 16, and chromosome Y. The global methylome at diagnosis showed hypermethylation at 61% of the differentially methylated regions (DMRs), followed by hypomethylation at 80% of DMRs under AZA, mostly affecting pathways related to immune system, chromatin organization, chromosome condensation, telomere maintenance, rRNA, and DNA repair. At disease evolution, a shift toward hypermethylation, intronic enhancers enrichment and epigenetic involvement of the PI3K/AKT and MAPK signaling emerged. In particular, AKT1 phosphorylation behaved as a hallmark of the progression. Overall, we provided new insights on the characterization of 1qJT in SRSF2-mutated myeloid neoplasms and first showed that epigenetics is a powerful tool to investigate the molecular landscape of repetitive DNA rearrangements.

Myelofibrosis (MF) is a chronic myeloproliferative neoplasm characterized by bone marrow fibrosis, cytopenias, and organomegaly. Four JAK inhibitors are US-FDA approved for treatment of MF. While these drugs reduce symptom burden and spleen size to varying degrees, they do not affect the natural disease course or decrease the risk of leukemic transformation. Therefore, there is a strong need for newer therapies to further advance the field and improve the outcomes of MF. In this review, we cover novel therapies for MF currently in early stages of development.

Implications for metabolic disturbances in myelodysplastic syndromes.
The Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS) are heterogeneous stem cell malignancies clinically characterized by bone marrow dysplasia, peripheral blood cytopenias, and a high risk for transformation to acute myeloid leukemia. In early stages of disease, differentiation defects and maturation blocks result in deficient hematopoiesis. In higher risk disease, unrestricted proliferation of immature blast cells leads to leukemogenesis. Disease pathogenesis can be attributed to many factors including chronic inflammation that is driven in part by commonly found somatic gene mutations (SGM) fostering expansion of malignant clones while suppressing normal hematopoiesis. Cellular metabolism that both directly and indirectly regulates hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) fate, is intimately connected to the immune system, is altered by MDS somatic gene mutations and is likely is a major contributor to disease pathophysiology. Despite this likely role in pathobiology, there is an underwhelming depth of literature on the subject and the precise metabolic dysregulations in these myeloid malignancies have yet to be fully delineated. In this review, we will provide a general overview of several major metabolic processes and how each directs HSC fate, provide a summary of metabolic studies in MDS, discuss how common SGM and inflammation influence metabolic pathways to drive bone marrow failure, and end with a discussion of standards of care and how these should be carefully considered in the context of metabolic dysregulation.

Plasmablastic multiple myeloma presenting as a pleural mass: a diagnostic challenge.
Plasmablastic multiple myeloma (MM) is a rare and highly aggressive variant of MM that presents significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. This variant is characterised by a bone marrow infiltration of ≥2% plasmablasts and is distinguished by its atypical pleomorphic morphology, unique immunohistological profile and extensive extramedullary involvement. The anaplastic features of plasmablastic MM can closely mimic those of high-grade lymphomas, leukaemia, non-haematopoietic malignancies and high-grade carcinomas, often leading to initial diagnostic errors. Accurate diagnosis requires a thorough evaluation that integrates clinical history, radiological findings, morphological analysis, immunophenotyping and genetic markers. Here, we present the case of a woman in her early 70s who was diagnosed with high-risk plasmablastic MM. The patient, with no significant neoplastic history, presented with chronic pain and an acute fracture, initially raising suspicion for high-grade metastatic lung carcinoma.

Niraparib perturbs autophagosome-lysosome fusion in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and exhibits anticancer potential against gemcitabine-resistant PDAC.
While poly (adenosine diphosphate-ribose) polymerase inhibitors (PARPi) have achieved specific clinical benefits in a subset of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) patients, the potential role of the PARPi niraparib in PDAC necessitates further exploration. In this study, we demonstrated that Niraparib exhibited a pronounced inhibitory effect on autophagy in PDAC both in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, this inhibition was primarily attributed to niraparib's ability to disrupt the fusion process between autophagosomes and lysosomes, while potentially exerting a relatively minor impact on the initial stage of autophagy. The blockade effect observed may be mediated via modulation of the ERK signaling pathway, and this effect can be mitigated by the application of an ERK inhibitor (FR180204). Notably, the combined treatment regimen of niraparib and gemcitabine failed to elicit the anticipated synergistic effects in wild-type PANC-1 cells, instead exhibiting pronounced antagonistic interactions. However, in gemcitabine-resistant PANC-1 cells, the combination of niraparib and gemcitabine exhibited modest additive effects. Furthermore, niraparib demonstrated a heightened cytotoxic potency against gemcitabine-resistant PANC-1 cells compared to wild-type PANC-1 cells, both in vitro and in vivo. Our research established that niraparib inhibits late-stage autophagy in PDAC, potentially representing a valuable salvage therapy for gemcitabine-resistant PDAC. Further clinical studies are justified.

Monte Carlo study of organ doses and related secondary cancer risk estimations for patients undergoing prostate radiotherapy: Algerian population-based study.
The present study aimed to assess organ doses and the associated cancer risks related to secondary radiation (photons and neutrons) exposure during 3D Conformational Radiotherapy (3D-CRT) for patients with prostate cancer in Algeria. To this purpose, a detailed geometric Monte Carlo (MC) modeling of the LINAC, combined with a hybrid whole-body phantom was carried out. The secondary radiation doses were calculated in patient's organs, both within and outside the field. The obtained doses were used to estimate the Lifetime Attributable Risks (LARs) for cancer incidence for out of field organs, using the Biological Effects of Ionizing Radiation VII (BEIR VII) risk model, considering the exposure age range according to the age of the treated patients in Algeria. The survival information and baseline cancer risks were based on relevant statistics for the Algerian population. The results revealed that secondary radiation equivalent doses mostly depend on the distance of organs from the treated volume. The highest and lowest equivalent doses of 5.77 mSv/Gy and 0.24 mSv/Gy were recorded in the small intestine and ocular lens, respectively. LARs decreased as the age of exposure increased, with the highest estimated value per 100,000 individuals identified at a 35-year exposure age (88 for the colon and 15 for the intestine). Conversely, the lowest risks were found at 70 years of age, specifically in rib bone and leg bone with value of (0). The current research could contribute to establishing a database concerning the incidence of secondary cancers induced by radiotherapy during 3D-CRT for prostate cancer in Algeria.

Polyphyllin VI: A promising treatment for prostate cancer bone metastasis.
Prostate cancer, as one of the most prevalent malignant tumors in men, seriously affects the prognosis and survival of patients due to its extremely high rate of bone metastasis. This study investigated the effect of Polyphyllin VI (PPVI) on metastatic bone disease for the first time in prostate cancer, focusing on its impact on osteoclast and tumor cell. In vitro studies utilized TRAP staining, ghost pen cyclic peptide staining, and bone resorption assays to evaluate the differentiation and function of receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL) induced and RM-1 conditional medium (CM) induced osteoclasts. The colony formation assay, wound healing assay, and Transwell assay were employed to analyze tumor cell proliferation, migration, and invasion in vitro. Flow cytometry was used to detect the cycling and apoptosis of tumor cells in vitro. Western Blot and PCR assays were conducted to assess the expression of genes. In vivo, micro-CT, hematoxylin-eosin staining, and immunohistochemical staining evaluated the impact of PPVI on bone destruction and tumor growth in a mouse model of tumor tibial metastasis. The study results indicated that PPVI effectively inhibited osteoclast differentiation, suppresses tumor cell proliferation, migration, and invasion in vitro, and induces apoptosis and G2/M phase arrest. In vivo, PPVI not only inhibits the growth of metastatic tumors but also mitigates the resulting bone destruction. These results suggest that PPVI holds significant potential as an alternative treatment for prostate cancer with bone metastasis, providing insights into its molecular mechanisms and therapeutic efficacy.

Clinical impact of [18F]FDG-PET/CT in ARI0002h treatment, a CAR-T against BCMA for relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma.
Multiple myeloma (MM) remains incurable, with poor outcomes in heavily pre-treated patients with plasmacytomas. Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy has emerged as a promising treatment option; however, outcomes after such therapy in patients with soft-tissue plasmacytomas and other bone lesions remain poorly understood. Data regarding these parameters is scarce within the specific context of CAR T-cell treatment. This study included 63 patients with relapsed/refractory MM (RRMM), treated either in the CARTBCMA-HCB-01 clinical trial (ARI0002h; academic BCMA-targeted CAR T-cell therapy) or due to compassionate use. The aim was to evaluate the impact of soft-tissue involvement (extramedullary [EMD] and paraskeletal [PS] plasmacytomas) in response, survival and safety. Baseline [18F]FDG-PET/CT from five participating centers were reviewed centrally. Of the 63 patients, 52.4% presented plasmacytomas at the time of inclusion (21 PS, exclusively, and 12 EMD). Per responses, there were no significant differences between patients with and without plasmacytomas. A correlation was present between IMWG responses and those obtained by [18F]FDG-PET/CT at day 100 (Bologna Criteria). No differences were observed in progression-free survival (PFS) or overall survival (OS) between patients with or without plasmacytomas. However, both PFS and OS were significantly shorter in patients with EMD. Interestingly, [18F]FDG-PET/CT response assessed on day 100, in accordance with the Bologna Criteria, was predictive of survival outcomes. A metabolic tumor volume (MTV) of 25 or more at baseline [18F]FDG-PET/CT was associated with earlier disease progression and a shorter OS. These results highlight the importance of EMD evaluation by [18F]FDG-PET/CT before and after CAR T-cell infusion. NCT04309981, and EudraCT, 2019-001472-11.

Update on cancer screening in children with syndromes of bone lesions, hereditary leiomyoma and renal cell carcinoma syndrome, and other rare syndromes.
The management of children with syndromes associated with an increased risk of benign and malignant neoplasms is a complex challenge for healthcare professionals. The 2023 AACR Childhood Cancer Predisposition Workshop provided updated consensus guidelines on cancer surveillance in these syndromes, aiming to improve early detection, intervention, and reduce morbidity associated with such neoplasms. In this paper, we review several of the rare conditions discussed in this workshop. Ollier disease and Maffucci syndrome are enchondromatoses (disorders featuring benign bone lesions) with up to 50% risk of malignancy, including chondrosarcoma. These patients require surveillance with baseline whole-body MRI and routine monitoring of potential malignant transformation of bony lesions. Hereditary Multiple Osteochondromas carry a lower risk of chondrosarcoma (<6%) but still require lifelong surveillance and baseline imaging. Related syndromes of benign bone lesions are also described. Hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell cancer syndrome (HLRCC), associated with fumarate hydratase pathogenic variants, is discussed in detail. Surveillance for RCC in pediatric age is recommended, as well as prompt intervention when a lesion is detected. Schinzel-Giedion Syndrome and Rubinstein-Taybi Syndrome are described for their associated malignancies and other complications, as well as expert consensus on the need for childhood cancer surveillance. Clinical recommendations, including imaging modalities and frequency of screenings, were proposed and are tailored to each syndrome's age-specific tumor risk profile. In all syndromes, patients and their families should be educated about the potential malignancy risk and advised to seek medical care for rapid growth of a mass, persistent pain, or other unexplained symptoms.

[Survival after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation with identical and haploidentical donors].
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a therapy that offers the potential to cure hematological malignancies. One limitation is that only 25% of patients will have an identical donor. The use of haploidentical donors allows 95% of patients to have a donor. Experience in Mexico with haploidentical HSCT is limited. In 2018, the Haploidentical Transplantation Program began at the Hospital de Especialidades (Specialties Hospital) from the Centro Médico Nacional Siglo XXI (21st Century National Medical Center).

The Prognostic Potential of circRNAs in Multiple Myeloma: Insights From Whole Bone Marrow and Purified Plasma Cells.
Multiple myeloma (MM) is a haematological malignancy with abnormal proliferation of plasma cells in the bone marrow (BM), and MM patients with highly proliferative plasma cells have reduced overall survival. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are endogenous, non-coding molecules that are promising biomarkers in cancer. Here, we present the largest study of circRNAs in MM to date and explore the prognostic potential of circRNAs and the link between proliferation and circRNA expression in MM. We performed deep total RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) on two cohorts: one cohort consisting of 45 whole BM MM patient samples and 13 healthy controls (HCs), and another cohort consisting of 43 CD138-purified plasma cell MM patient samples. We found that circRNAs are globally upregulated in the whole BM of MM patients compared to HCs. In whole BM, low proliferation and high circRNA levels were associated with a poor prognosis, while in purified plasma cells, low proliferation and high circRNA levels were associated with a favourable prognosis. Individual circRNAs from purified plasma cells were found to be significantly associated with MM patient outcomes and provide additional prognostic value to the proliferative indexes. Together, our findings emphasise the potential of circRNAs as prognostic biomarkers in MM.

Incidental Ovarian Uptake in Bone Scintigraphy.
A 47-year-old woman, recently diagnosed with breast cancer, underwent staging. A whole-body bone scan revealed an unexpected focal 99mTc-MDP uptake in her right ovary. Extensive literature review suggested various malignant pathologies for this incidental ovarian uptake. Despite inconclusive results from other imaging modalities, the multidisciplinary tumor board recommended right ovarian resection due to a history of abnormal uterine bleeding. The final pathology confirmed an adult-type granulosa cell tumor. Interestingly, subsequent surgery performed for staging purposes found no additional tumor sources. This case highlights the enhanced diagnostic value of hybrid imaging in bone scintigraphy.

Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes improve cancer drug delivery in human cell lines and a mouse osteosarcoma model.
Osteosarcoma is the most common primary bone tumor. Patients require chemotherapy drugs with high-targeting ability and low off-target toxicity to improve their survival. Exosomes are biological vesicles that mediate long-distance communication between cells and naturally target their source sites. Exosomes derived from bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) naturally target bone tumor sites, suggesting their potential as effective anti-tumor therapy vectors. In this study, we evaluated the potential of BMSC-derived exosomes in targeting osteosarcoma and serving as a carrier for doxorubicin (DOX).

Tricuspid mass-curious case of Li-Fraumeni syndrome: A letter to the editor.
We focus specifically on the rare occurrence of cardiac thrombi in Li-Fraumeni syndrome (LFS). LFS is a hereditary risk to a diverse range of specific, uncommon, malignancies. Children and young adults have a heightened susceptibility to many malignancies, particularly soft-tissue and bone tumors, breast malignancies, central nervous system malignancies, adrenocortical carcinoma, and blood cancers. Additionally, LFS patients may experience other cancer types such as gastrointestinal, lung, kidney, thyroid, and skin cancers, along with those affecting gonadal organs (ovaries, testicles, and prostate). An accurate diagnosis of LFS is crucial to enable affected families to access appropriate genetic counseling and undergo surveillance for early cancer detection.

Effects of Resveratrol on Adipocytes: Evidence from In Vitro and In Vivo Studies.
Obesity, a prevalent global health issue, arises from an imbalance between caloric intake and energy expenditure, leading to the expansion of adipose tissue and metabolic dysfunction. White adipose tissue (WAT) stores energy as lipids, while brown adipose tissue (BAT) plays a pivotal role in energy dissipation through adaptive thermogenesis. Recent research initiatives have focused on finding strategies to decrease adipogenesis and fat mass accumulation and increase thermogenesis. Finding chemicals with anti-obesity properties would be beneficial. Resveratrol, a polyphenolic compound abundantly found in the skin of grapes and red wine, possesses anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, and anti-obesity properties. This literature review examines the effects of resveratrol on adipocytes in culture and adipose tissue in animal models of obesity. The existing evidence indicates that resveratrol may exert its anti-obesity effects by inhibiting adipogenesis, promoting the apoptosis of mature adipocytes, reducing lipid accumulation, and increasing thermogenesis. Further research utilizing animal and clinical studies is required to understand in detail the anti-obesity potential of resveratrol.

Theranostics Nuclear Medicine in Prostate Cancer.
Theranostic Nuclear Medicine is based on the idea of combining the same molecule (or drug) with different radioisotopes for both diagnosis and treatment, a concept that emerged in the early 1940s with the use of radioactive iodine for thyroid diseases. Theranostic Nuclear Medicine has since expanded to diseases of higher incidence, such as prostate cancer, with several imaging methods used to assess the extent of the disease and the corresponding radiopharmaceuticals used for treatment. For example, by detecting osteoblastic metastases by bone scintigraphy, corresponding radiopharmaceuticals with therapeutic properties can be administered to eliminate or reduce pain associated with metastases and/or determine overall survival gain. The purpose of this review is to discuss the role of Theranostic Nuclear Medicine in prostate cancer, addressing the main diagnostic imaging studies with their corresponding treatments in the Theranostic model.

Surgical Textbook Outcomes in the Era of Neoadjuvant Systemic Treatment for Skin Cancers.
Recent years have brought new, highly effective systemic treatments to clinical practice, which can be used to treat patients with locally advanced or metastatic skin cancers. Using these regimens in neoadjuvant strategy influences surgical treatment by facilitating surgical resection, avoiding extensive resections with complex reconstructions and even omitting surgery in some cases. Integrating systemic therapy with surgery is ongoing and requires novel quality measures of surgical treatment to capture the clinical benefits of multidisciplinary strategies better. The Textbook Outcome (TO) is a novel measure of surgical quality, which captures the short-term outcomes of surgery and reflects long-term survival. Textbook Outcomes match a particular type of surgery, are intuitive to interpret, and may be widely applied in surgical oncology and general surgery. Therefore, this review aims to describe recent findings on neoadjuvant skin cancer treatment and their implications for surgical proceedings in the context of Textbook Outcomes.

The Potential Role of the Microbiome in the Pathogenesis of Nasal Tumors: A Comprehensive Review.
Cancers of the nose, and especially the nose vestibule, represent a significant challenge for clinicians due to their rarity, the intricate nature of surrounding vital structures, the nonspecific early symptoms, and the etiological factors that are not completely understood. Emerging research suggests that alterations in the nasal microbiome, also known as microbial dysbiosis, may contribute to the pathogenesis of those malignancies through mechanisms involving chronic inflammation, immune modulation, and cellular changes. The aims of this paper are to review the current literature covering the nasal microbiome's role in carcinogenesis, particularly in the context of squamous cell carcinoma, and to explore how microbial dysbiosis might foster a pro-tumorigenic environment. It further discusses potential future directions for research and therapeutic approaches.
