Jumping translocations (JTs) are rare chromosomal abnormalities that play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of various cancer types. These rearrangements, especially those involving chromosome 1q, are frequently associated with tumor progression, therapeutic resistance, and poor prognosis. One gene of particular interest, human Jumping Translocation Breakpoint (), has been identified at the site of translocation breakpoints and exhibits complex, context-dependent roles in cancer biology. JTB protein functions as a pivotal regulator in mitosis, chromosomal segregation, apoptosis, and cellular metabolism. It is functionally linked with the chromosomal passenger complex (CPC) and is implicated in processes such as epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), immune evasion, and therapy resistance, especially in breast and prostate cancers. Advances in genomic, transcriptomic, and proteomic research have highlighted the significant potential of JTB as a diagnostic biomarker and a target for therapeutic interventions. This review underscores the dual role of JTB as both a tumor suppressor and oncogene, depending on the cellular context, and advocates for its continued investigation at the genomic, transcriptomic, and proteomic levels. Understanding JTB's multifaceted contributions to tumor biology may pave the way for novel biomarkers and targeted treatments in cancer management.

Background: Habitat selection plays a crucial role in avian reproductive success, with nest-site characteristics and individual traits influencing breeding outcomes. This study investigates the relationship between breeder's age and nest-site selection in a population of white storks Ciconia ciconia, a long-lived, site-faithful species nesting solitarily in Western Poland. Using data collected from 2006 to 2024 on ring recoveries, nest dimensions, productivity, and habitat characteristics, we analyzed the age at which birds were first recorded on specific nests.

Recent literature trends toward early surgical intervention for optimal treatment of patellofemoral instability, typically involving medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction. Medial patellotibial ligament (MPTL) reconstruction is an adjunctive procedure with medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction, given its role as an additional restraint to patellar translation during knee flexion. The purpose of this Technical Note is to demonstrate the preferred MPTL reconstruction technique in pediatric and adolescent patients at this institution, which mimics an anatomic approach in which the tibial portion of the MPTL graft is secured to the epiphysis.

The centrosome, a vital component in mitosis in eukaryotes, plays a pivotal role in cancer progression by influencing the proliferation and differentiation of malignant cells, making it a significant therapeutic target. We collected genes associated with centrosomes from existing literature and established a prognostic model for 85 osteosarcoma patients from the TARGET database. Genes associated with prognosis were identified through univariate Cox regression.
