Article Abstract
Unlabelled: Head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCC) is one of the most prevalent type of cancer known in Indian population. Studies are needed to identify the early biomarkers for HNSCC. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are non-coding RNA molecules, expression of which can be used as biomarker for early diagnosis of HNSCC. For miRNA profiling total RNA, which also contained small RNAs were isolated from ten HNSCC tissue samples and adjacent control. Purity and concentration of eluted RNA was assessed using the NanoDrop1000® spectrophotometer, Reverse Transcription reaction was carried out with megaplex RT primers of pool A and pool B and the expression of selected miRNAs (miR-143/145 and miR-18a/b) was measured using TaqMan primers specific for mature miRNAs. Our study showed dramatic downregulation in expression of two miRNAs, miR-18b and miR-145 in blood samples of HNSCC patients, which are inhibitor of tumorigenesis and can be targeted as biomarker of HNSCC pathogenesis therefore developing avenues for miRNA role in prognosis and therapeutics.

Evaluating Amino Acid Profiles and Blood Gas Concentrations Between Single and Twin Merino Newborn Lambs.

As sheep production standards progress, and animals are bred for high production in terms of the number and weight of lambs weaned per ewe, research has identified a difference in the physiology of single lambs compared to multiple born lambs. The current study aimed to report the baseline amino acid (AA) profiles and blood gas concentrations in newborn, Merino single and twin lambs. From 120 days of gestation, 50 single-bearing and 50 twin-bearing, naturally mated Merino ewes were monitored for signs of approaching parturition.

Background: T follicular helper (TFH) cell lymphoma is complex, and we hope to provide a new perspective for its diagnosis.
Methods: We analysed the immunophenotypes of 89 mature T-cell lymphomas, including 52 nodal lymphomas of TFH origin, as well as 32 benign lymph node samples and 30 healthy bone marrow samples, by flow cytometry (FCM).
Results: Among pan-T cell markers, CD4CD5CD3 is the typical pattern that distinguishes TFH lymphoma from other T-cell lymphomas.

Whole blood (WB) transcriptomics offers a minimal-invasive method to assess patients' immune system. This study aimed to identify transcriptional patterns in WB associated with clinical outcomes in patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). We performed RNA-sequencing on pre-treatment WB samples from 145 patients with advanced cancer.

Cancer development and response to treatment are evolutionary processes, but characterizing evolutionary dynamics at a clinically meaningful scale has remained challenging. Here we develop a new methodology called EVOFLUx, based on natural DNA methylation barcodes fluctuating over time, that quantitatively infers evolutionary dynamics using only a bulk tumour methylation profile as input. We apply EVOFLUx to 1,976 well-characterized lymphoid cancer samples spanning a broad spectrum of diseases and show that initial tumour growth rate, malignancy age and epimutation rates vary by orders of magnitude across disease types.

At present there is no metabolic characterization of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL). Pathognomonic of APL, PML::RARα fusion protein rewires metabolic pathways to feed anabolic tumor cell's growth. All-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) and arsenic trioxide (ATO)-based therapies render APL the most curable subtype of AML, yet approximately 1% of cases are resistant and 5% relapse.
