Increasingly, novel treatment approaches are being investigated in early phase clinical studies. Importantly, such therapies need to be evaluated in the context of both refractory and relapsed disease; in older patients and those with co-morbid conditions; and those with neurocognitive dysfunction. A deeper understanding of the molecular genetic…[Read more]

Pathological margin assessment is an essential component of surgical management of oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma (OCSCC), however, in many studies, variable definitions of involved margins have been used. The purpose of the present study was to compare the prognostic ability of involved margins according to Royal College of Pathologists…[Read more]

Moreover, bioinformatic analysis and dual-luciferase reporter assays confirmed that circFBXW7 can directly target miR-23a-3p, which then blocks the binding of miR-23a-3p to the 3′ un-translated region (UTR) of PTEN. Mechanically, circFBXW7 suppresses cell proliferation and metastasis in glioma by sponging miR-23a-3p, resulting in elevated PTEN…[Read more]

Our study revealed a new route of Pst transmission from the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau to the Hubei region. The Pst inoculum of northwestern Hubei came from Gansu in the northwest, whereas the inoculum in southern Hubei came from the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau via upper airflow. After the initial inocula infected wheat plants and multiplied in northern…[Read more]
