Pituitary neuroendocrine tumors (PitNETs) are common, most likely benign tumors with complex clinical characteristics related to hormone hypersecretion and/or growing sellar tumor mass. PitNET types are classified according to their expression of specific transcriptional factors (TFs) and hormone secretion levels. Some types show aggressive, invasive, and reoccurrence behavior. Current research is being conducted to understand the molecular mechanisms regulating these high-heterogeneous neoplasms originating from adenohypophysis, and single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) technology is now playing an essential role in these studies due to its remarkable resolution at the single-cell level. This review describes recent studies on human PitNETs performed with scRNA-seq technology, highlighting the potential of this approach in revealing these tumor pathologies, behavior, and regulatory mechanisms.

Background: Sepsis is characterized by profound immune and metabolic perturbations, with glycolysis serving as a pivotal modulator of immune responses. However, the molecular mechanisms linking glycolytic reprogramming to immune dysfunction remain poorly defined.
Methods: Transcriptomic profiles of sepsis were obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus.

Introduction: While nucleus pulposus cell (NPC) degeneration is a primary driver of intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD), the cellular heterogeneity and molecular interactions underlying NPC degeneration remain poorly characterized. Previous studies have shown that EGFR signaling plays a significant role in NPC differentiation and collagen matrix production. Consequently, this study aims to identify the critical downstream regulatory molecule of EGFR in the process of NPC degeneration.

Purpose: Autoimmune thyroiditis (AIT) is the most common organ-specific autoimmune disease, and its pathogenesis is closely related to the inflammatory microenvironment driven by immune cell penetration. The role of the newly proposed concept of PANoptosis in immune-related diseases is gradually being revealed. However, there is currently a lack of reports on PANoptosis in AIT.

Background And Aim: Granulosa cells (GCs) are crucial mediators of follicular development and oocyte competence in goats, with their gene expression profiles serving as potential biomarkers of fertility. However, the lack of a standardized, quantifiable method to assess GC quality using transcriptomic data has limited the translation of such findings into reproductive applications. This study aimed to develop a hybrid deep learning model integrating one-dimensional convolutional neural networks (1DCNNs) and gated recurrent units (GRUs) to classify GCs as fertility-supporting (FS) or non-fertility-supporting (NFS) using single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data.
