The combination of ΔDCEUS% and ΔEmax% demonstrated superior predictive ability for NAC response, with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.906, outperforming ΔDCEUS% (AUC 0.871) or ΔEmax% (AUC 0.722) alone. CEUS combined with SWE shows promise for predicting pCR in invasive breast cancer undergoing NAC.
PGR activation in response to hormonal stimulation induced expression of a HIF reporter system in primary human granulosa cells, with HIF-2 inhibition with the small molecule PT-2385 confirming a HIF-2 contribution to this response...In particular, inflammatory gene expression was dysregulated and a cohort of gonadotrophin-dependent genes, including Pgr, were elevated, suggesting impaired downregulation post-ovulation. These findings provide an important insight into regulation of the hypoxia inducible transcription factors during ovulation and how targeting HIF-2α may be of benefit in future fertility treatments.

Its upregulation promotes tumor progression by activating the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway and modulating the tumor immune microenvironment. These findings provide a theoretical foundation for targeting G3BP1 in BRCA diagnosis and immunotherapy.

NOTCH-1 expression was not associated with key clinicopathological or survival parameters in this cohort. While some molecular correlations were observed, NOTCH-1 does not appear to have strong prognostic utility in EC. Further research integrating molecular classification and long-term follow-up is needed to clarify its potential role in tumor biology.

Tumor uptake of Cys-PEG5-IR was significantly higher than the unlabeled IR in the subcutaneous MDA-MB-231 TNBC xenograft. This work highlights the prospect of using methionine (Met) transport pathway as an alternative strategy for targeting cancer cells, especially TNBC cells.

In patients with residual disease, pre- and post-NAC ER expression levels were found to be independent prognostic factors, but with no significant differences among ER-negative, ER-low positive, and ER-intermediate positive tumors. Our study indicates that ER-low positive BCs are similar to ER-negative BCs and that ER-intermediate positive BCs exhibit characteristics heterogeneous between ER-negative and ER-high positive BCs in terms of clinicopathological characteristics, chemo-responsiveness, and clinical outcomes.

Although IVL is a rare histologically benign tumour, it exhibits the capacity to infiltrate cardiac chambers and pulmonary vasculature. Therefore, early diagnosis via imaging techniques, precise assessment of the extent of intravenous leiomyoma involvement, complete lesion resection and perioperative administration of anti-oestrogen medications are pivotal for enhancing patient prognosis. Additionally, for cases with atypical nuclei or high Ki-67 levels, multidisciplinary collaboration is required to personalised treatment.
