Glioma

These findings suggest that CSF cfDNA effectively represents the genetic profile of gliomas and serves as a sensitive measure for surgical resection efficacy and patient prognosis, highlighting its potential as a non-invasive biomarker for enhancing post-operative management in glioma patients.

These results highlight the potential of ¹⁸F-DOPA-PET and advanced MRI sequences as valuable complements to standard RANO 2.0 MRI evaluations for assessing treatment response in glioma patients undergoing IDHi therapy.

Furthermore, miR-93-5p was validated as a critical gene, with its disruption leading to significant reductions in GBM cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. The novel CRM signature enhances the prognostic landscape for patients with LGG, offering a new framework for evaluating immunotherapeutic efficacy.

The inhibition of OPN increased GBM sensitivity to temozolomide (TMZ) in orthotopic models. This study revealed the potential mechanism by which hypoxia-induced OPN+ GAMs promote the mesenchymal transition in GBM cells and demonstrated the therapeutic potential of targeting OPN to enhance TMZ treatment effectiveness.

An increased prevalence of second primary malignancy is anticipated due to the rising cancer burden and the careful screening of index initial malignancy throughout therapy. Determining the best course of action requires careful staging of the cancer and discussion by a multidisciplinary team.

Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) revealed that miR-16-5p and other miRNAs with seed AGCAGCA formed the largest interaction network in GBM, while disease enrichment analysis using Database for Annotation, Visualization, and Integrated Discovery (DAVID) confirmed that the 1000 predicted mRNA targets of DE-miRNAs in GBM were disease relevant. Collectively, these findings identify a robust panel of CSF-derived miRNAs capable of distinguishing IDH-mutant gliomas, GBM, and non-tumor states, supporting the potential of EV-miRNAs as minimally invasive biomarkers for the molecular characterization of diffuse gliomas.

Thus, clarifying these alternate mechanisms may be important as the roles of cilia in tumor formation and propagation, angiogenesis, and treatment resistance are increasingly reported. A deeper understanding of the role of cilia in these hallmarks of glioma may hold clues to the high recurrence rate of GBM.

Functional experiments demonstrate that both knockdown and overexpression of ASIC2 critically regulate glioma cell proliferation, invasion, and metastatic potential through mechanisms mediated by matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP2), calcineurin, and nuclear factor of activated T cells 1 (NFAT1) signaling pathways. These findings delineate a pivotal role for ASIC2 in governing glioma malignant behavior and establish its relevance as a potential molecular target for therapeutic intervention.

This study revealed the interaction between epithelial cells and fibroblasts in the microenvironment of lung adenocarcinoma brain metastasis and implicate PPP1R13L as a potential prognostic indicator and actionable target, offering rationale for precision therapy against lung adenocarcinoma brain metastases.

Our study provides a non-invasive method to identify glioma phenotypic subtypes, reveal distinct signaling pathways, and define therapeutically homogeneous patient subgroups that could guide targeted therapy.
