Genetic and Molecular Mechanisms Linking Breast Cancer to Meningioma Risk: Roles of EXO1, BRCA2, and ESR1. (PubMed, Curr Med Chem)
This study provides genetic and functional evidence linking breast cancer to meningioma risk through DNA repair and hormonal pathways, supporting early risk assessment and targeted therapies to improve patient outcomes.

Challenge of Diagnostic Criteria for Diffuse Hemispheric Glioma (DHG), H3 G34-Mutant: A Case of DHG Without H3.3 Gene Alteration. (PubMed, Neuropathol Appl Neurobiol)
The diagnosis could only be established based on the DNA methylation profiling result. In light of these distinctive molecular findings, we propose some insights into the current WHO diagnostic criteria for DHG H3-G34 and emphasise the value of comprehensive molecular diagnosis.

Confronting Upside-Down Video-Assisted Thoracic Surgery for Anterior Mediastinal Leiomyoma. (PubMed, Surg Case Rep)
Primary leiomyoma of the anterior mediastinum is extremely rare. Because primary mediastinal leiomyomas have nonspecific imaging features, distinguishing them from other anterior mediastinal tumors is challenging; thus, surgical resection is required for both diagnosis and treatment. Compared with the conventional look-up method, the confronting upside-down VATS technique utilizes higher intercostal access to provide a comprehensive thoracic view while minimizing diaphragmatic interference. The 180-degree rotated assistant monitor allows both surgeon and assistant to share a thoracotomy-like visual field, enhancing intraoperative coordination. In this case, it facilitated a stable operative field and phrenic nerve preservation despite the tumor's proximity without diaphragmatic interference. The confronting upside-down VATS technique may be particularly advantageous for anterior mediastinal tumors located along the phrenic nerve and in close proximity to the diaphragm.

KDM5C-regulated SIX5 promotes glioblastoma progression through transcriptional activation of UBE2C and enhancement of the Warburg effect. (PubMed, Front Immunol)
In conclusion, SIX5 functions as a critical oncogenic driver in GBM, regulated by KDM5C and promoting tumor progression through UBE2C-mediated activation of AKT/mTOR signaling and glycolytic reprogramming. The KDM5C-SIX5-UBE2C regulatory axis represents a potential prognostic biomarker and therapeutic target in glioblastoma.

Solitary Fibrous Tumors of the Central Nervous System: A Retrospective Study From a National Referral Hospital in Mexico. (PubMed, Cureus)
Conclusions Due to their rarity, these tumors may be overlooked in clinical practice. The low availability of diagnostic tests in many centers may contribute to the underestimation of the incidence of SFTs.

Dual Targeting of DNA and EGFR by ZYH005 Induces DNA Damage and Mitotic Catastrophe in Glioblastoma. (PubMed, MedComm (2020))
These combined actions lead to cell cycle arrest and mitotic catastrophe. Our findings establish Z5 as a promising clinical candidate for classical GBM, employing a unique dual mechanism that overcomes EGFR-targeted and DNA-damaging therapy limitations by synergistically targeting DNA and EGFR with high efficacy, advancing understanding of EGFR-WEE1 biology, and supporting clinical development.
