AHNAK2 (AHNAK Nucleoprotein 2)

Our workflow for live CTC capture and sequencing enables discovery of new markers for both epithelial and mesenchymal CTCs. When combined with existing markers, we improve live CTC capture for more holistic studies of the metastatic process and offer a scalable method for discovering CTC markers.

AHNAK2 demonstrates moderate sensitivity and high specificity in the pathological diagnosis of GBC, particularly for well-differentiated ACs. Combining AHNAK2 with IMP3 significantly enhances diagnostic sensitivity, achieving up to 90% across all AC grades.

This study shows that while PMMC has similarities with other melanomas, it also harbors unique mutant genes. These findings provide a basis for exploring PMMC-related molecular markers and developing personalized diagnosis and treatment plans for patients with PMMC.

Furthermore, by applying RNAseq in a standardized workflow, the approach enables both patient-specific and population-level vaccine design, based on statistically frequent gene variants observed across tumor datasets. AutoEpiCollect 2.0 is freely available as a website based tool for user to design vaccine.

Drug susceptibility analysis further demonstrates that AHNAK2 confers significant resistance to bafetinib (r = -0.38, P < .05) and curcumin (r = -0.55, P < .05)...The findings underscore the potential of AHNAK2 to serve as a valuable biomarker for immunotherapy in PAAD. This discovery paves the way for the development of more tailored and efficacious treatment approaches, offering new prospects for improving patient outcomes and advancing the field of PAAD management.

Our findings indicated that the rondom froest model based on five autoantibodies might help identify preclinical and early-stage PC.

These hits exhibited lower free energies (ΔG) as compared to the benchmark inhibitors, Galunisertib and Vactosertib. The results offer valuable insights into the binding mechanism of protein TGFßR1 and its role in the disease, suggesting that targeting the TGF-ß signaling pathway may represent a promising therapeutic strategy.

Conversely, AHNAK2 overexpression in HCT116/5-FU cells produced the opposite effects. Collectively, these findings demonstrate that AHNAK2 reduces the chemosensitivity of CRC to 5-FU by activating the AKT/GSK-3β signaling pathway, underscoring its potential as a therapeutic target to improve CRC treatment strategies.

We assessed SUMOylation expression patterns and function in PDAC using Western blot and the SUMOylation inhibitor TAK-981...This study underscores the role of SUMOylation in PDAC and introduces the Sscore as a prognostic tool. SAFB2 is identified as a potential tumor suppressor, offering new therapeutic targets for PDAC.

qRT-PCR confirmed that, except for NLRP10, all prognostic genes exhibited expression patterns consistent with TCGA-NSCLC data. This study highlights the significant role of FRGs in NSCLC prognosis and regulation, offering novel insights for personalized treatment strategies.

Our study posits AHNAK2 as a valuable diagnostic biomarker in PDAC, now demanding prospective validation. Determination of mechanisms regulating AHNAK2 subcellular localisation may help explain its biological role.
