Background: Prostate cancer (PCa) is a malignant tumor of the male reproductive system, and its incidence has increased significantly in recent years. This study aimed to further identify candidate biomarkers with prognostic and diagnostic significance by integrating gene expression and DNA methylation data from PCa patients through association analysis.
Material And Methods: To this end, this paper proposes a sparse partial least squares regression algorithm based on hypergraph regularization (HR-SPLS) by integrating and clustering two kinds of data.
Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is the most aggressive and deadly cancer of the urinary system and is regulated by multiple signaling pathways. However, the specific molecular mechanisms underlying ccRCC have not been fully studied or demonstrated. This study aimed to elucidate the function of lysosomal-associated transmembrane protein 5 (LAPTM5) in ccRCC cell lines and animal models and determine the potential underlying mechanisms.

Background: Chronic muscle injury is characteristics of fatty infiltration and fibrosis. Recently, fibro/adipogenic progenitors (FAPs) were found to be indispensable for muscular regeneration while were also responsible for fibrosis and fatty infiltration in muscle injury. Many myokines have been proven to regulate the adipose or cell proliferation.
