Background: Breast cancer is a heterogeneous malignancy with complex molecular characteristics, making accurate prognostication and treatment stratification particularly challenging. Emerging evidence suggests that lactylation, a novel post-translational modification, plays a crucial role in tumor progression and immune modulation.

Methods: To address breast cancer heterogeneity, we developed a machine learning-derived lactylation signature (MLLS) using lactylation-related genes selected through random survival forest (RSF) and univariate Cox regression analyses.

Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) represents a major subtype of kidney cancer with variable prognosis. A comprehensive understanding of sex hormone-related pathways could potentially refine the prediction of patient outcomes in ccRCC. Patients from TCGA-KIRC (n = 528) and GSE22541 (n = 40) cohorts were analyzed.

Metabolic plasticity and ferroptosis are essential for colorectal cancer (CRC) progression. The effects and prognostic value of metabolic plasticity- and ferroptosis-related genes (MPFRGs) in CRC remain unclear. We established a prognostic model for CRC patients by identifying important genes in metabolic plasticity and ferroptosis.

Acute lung injury (ALI) is a severe clinical respiratory condition characterized by high rates of mortality and morbidity, for which effective treatments are currently lacking. In this study, lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was used to induce ALI mice, demonstrating the efficacy of tetramethylpyrazine (TMP) in ameliorating ALI. Subsequent we perfored high-throughput sequencing analysis and used Targetscan 8.

Background: The respiratory system is intensely damaged by acute lung injury (ALI). The anti-inflammatory effects of tetramethylpyrazine (TMP) against ALI have been confirmed, but it exhibits a short half-life. miR-194-5p could directly target Rac1, but the internalization rate of miRNA cells was low.

Acute lung injury (ALI) is a respiratory disorder characterized by severe inflammation of the alveoli and lung parenchyma. Tetramethylpyrazine (TMP), the main active compound in Ligusticum chuanxiong Hort (LC), can protect against lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced ALI. Our study aimed to investigate how TMP protects the endothelial cell barrier in pulmonary capillaries.

TP53 is the most frequently mutated gene in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). The tumor immune microenvironment (TIM) is considered a vital factor that influences tumor progression and survival rate. The influence of TP53 mutation on TIM in LUAD has not been fully studied.

Breast cancer is characterized by some types of heterogeneity, high aggressive behaviour, and low immunotherapeutic efficiency. Detailed immune stratification is a prerequisite for interpreting resistance to treatment and escape from immune control. Hence, the immune landscape of breast cancer needs further understanding.
