E3 ubiquitin ligase FBXW11-mediated downregulation of S100A11 promotes sensitivity to PARP inhibitor in ovarian cancer.

Resistance to poly adenosine diphosphate (ADP)-ribose polymerase inhibitor (PARPi) presents a considerable obstacle in the treatment of ovarian cancer. F-box and tryptophan-aspartic (WD) repeat domain containing 11 (FBXW11) modulates the ubiquitination of growth-and invasion-related factors in lung cancer, colorectal cancer, and osteosarcoma. The function of FBXW11 in PARPi therapy is still ambiguous.

An investigation of hydraulic fracturing initiation and location of hydraulic fracture in preforated oil shale formations.

Horizontal well fracturing technology enables the commercial production of low-permeability reservoirs, with perforation fracturing technology serving as a critical component of multistage fracturing for horizontal wells. However, the presence of the horizontal wellbore and the perforation borehole significantly complicates the distribution of the local stress field. The extension behavior of hydraulic fractures cannot be accurately described.

Co-application of polyethylene oxide (PEO), biochar, and seaweed fertilizer improves desert soil properties.

Improving water retention, erosion resistance and nutrients in desert areas is essential for ecological sustainability. This study evaluated the effects of biochar, polyethylene oxide (PEO), and seaweed fertilizer on the properties of desert sandy soil, focusing on water retention, erosion resistance, and soil nutrients. The sandy soil used in the study was taken from the Tengger Desert in Gansu, China, and an orthogonal experimental design was used to select three different proportions of biochar, PEO, and seaweed fertilizer.

A Prognostic Model Based on Metabolism-Related Genes for Patients with Ovarian Cancer.

Unlabelled: Metabolism-associated genes (MAGs) are important regulators of tumor progression and can affect a variety of physiological processes. In this study, we focused on the relationship between MAGs and Ovarian cancer (OC) prognosis.

Method: Metabolism-related genes were extracted from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database.

‑GlcNAcylation mediates endometrial cancer progression by regulating the Hippo‑YAP pathway.

The incidence of endometrial cancer (EC) is rapidly increasing worldwide. The majority of endometrial cancers are diagnosed at an early stage and are associated with a good prognosis; however, patients with advanced‑stage EC have a poor prognosis and present with invasive metastasis. The mechanisms responsible for the invasion and metastasis of endometrial cancer remain unknown.

LMNB1 deletion in ovarian cancer inhibits the proliferation and metastasis of tumor cells through PI3K/Akt pathway.

Ovarian cancer (OC) is a common malignant tumor in gynecology. LMNB1 is an important component of the nuclear skeleton. The expression of LMNB1 in ovarian cancer is significantly higher than that in normal tissues, but its role in tumor still needs comprehensive investigation.

Procedures and technical considerations of robotic-assisted human uterus transplantation.

Background: Uterus transplantation is the only treatment for absolute uterine factor infertility. Complex vascular anatomy, long operation time, and intraoperative injuries are the main factors that limit progress in uterus transplantation. Moreover, robot-assisted uterus transplantation is not popular at present due to technical difficulties, with only a few countries reporting success.

Reduced O-GlcNAcylation of SNAP-23 promotes cisplatin resistance by inducing exosome secretion in ovarian cancer.

Exosomes have been associated with chemoresistance in various cancers, but such a role in ovarian cancer is not yet clear. Here, using in vitro cell-based and in vivo mouse model experiments, we show that downregulation of O-GlcNAcylation, a key post-translational protein modification, promotes exosome secretion. This increases exosome-mediated efflux of cisplatin from cancer cells resulting in chemoresistance.

Classification of Prostate Transitional Zone Cancer and Hyperplasia Using Deep Transfer Learning From Disease-Related Images.

Purpose The diagnosis of prostate transition zone cancer (PTZC) remains a clinical challenge due to their similarity to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) on MRI. The Deep Convolutional Neural Networks (DCNNs) showed high efficacy in diagnosing PTZC on medical imaging but was limited by the small data size. A transfer learning (TL) method was combined with deep learning to overcome this challenge.

Screening and Identification of a Specific Binding Peptide to Ovarian Cancer Cells from a Phage-Displayed Peptide Library.

To select specific binding peptides for imaging and detection of human ovarian cancer. The phage 12-mer peptide library was used to select specific phage clones to ovarian cancer cells. After four rounds of biopanning, the binding specificity of randomly selected phage clones to ovarian cancer cells was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).
