SNHG18 Deficiency Reprograms Arginine Metabolism to Foster an Immunosuppressive Microenvironment in Prostate Cancer Bone Metastasis. (PubMed, Cancer Lett)
Consequently, SNHG18 deficiency fosters an immunosuppressive TME and promotes PCa BM. SNHG18 expression may serve as a predictive biomarker for ICB response, offering a novel strategy to overcome immunotherapy resistance in PCa BM.

STING-induced blood-brain barrier opening combined with radiotherapy potentiates antitumor response in a high-grade glioma model. (PubMed, J Clin Invest)
Sting activation was visualized longitudinally using 3'-deoxy-3'-[18F]-fluorothymidine ([18F]-FLT) PET, which peaked 72-96 hours after 8803 administration. In summary, 8803 combined with RT triggers distinctive antiglioma immune reactivity, facilitates BBB opening, and warrants consideration for up-front clinical trials in glioblastoma, where treatment effects can be monitored using [18F]-FLT PET imaging.

Integrating single-cell and spatial transcriptomics to dissect mast-cell heterogeneity and arginine-metabolism-associated markers in BRCA. (PubMed, Neoplasia)
Arginine metabolism stratifies MCs into pro-tumorigenic HAS and quiescent LAS subsets; ASL-high MCs constitute a metabolically wired, highly communicating population that fuels TNBC progression and furnishes an exploitable prognostic signature. OAT, a key HAS-associated gene, promotes breast cancer aggressiveness through proliferation, survival, and invasion.

NOHA as a key biomarker to link NOS2 activity to immune checkpoint and cytokine signaling in ER-negative breast cancer. (PubMed, Biochem Biophys Rep)
The pronounced effects in AA-derived ER- spheroids align with known disparities in tumor aggressiveness and suggest future NOHA clinical utility potential in racially diverse populations. Further in vivo validation is warranted to support and confirm such clinical translation.

cagA-positive Helicobacter pylori and human NOS2-954G/C polymorphism: A possible association with severe clinical outcomes in Iranian patients. (PubMed, Infect Genet Evol)
Our findings suggest a borderline association between cagA-positive H. pylori isolates and disease severity, particularly PUD (p = 0.045), whereas a stronger and statistically significant association was observed for the human NOS2 - 954G/C polymorphism (p = 0.003). These results should be interpreted with caution, especially for outcomes with limited sample size.

Utilization of machine learning algorithms for the identification of the RLN associated prognostic model and feature biomarkers of RLN-related subtypes in breast cancer. (PubMed, Transl Oncol)
The identification of TRAPM and the RC3 subtype enhances our understanding of BC heterogeneity and highlights potential therapeutic targets. This study provides a foundation for personalized treatment strategies by clarifying the biological significance and clinical relevance of the RC3 subtype.

NOS2/ARG1 axis and immune cell ratios as promising prognostic and predictive biomarkers for Cetuximab combined with chemotherapy in wt-KRAS human colorectal cancer. (PubMed, Front Immunol)
For the first time, we propose a novel combined score integrating NO, arginase, SII, and SIRI as simple, accessible, and non-invasive prognostic and predictive markers. Our findings may open new avenues for patient stratification and treatment optimization in precision oncology research.

Modulating NOS2 of radiotherapy-recruited CCR2+ macrophages enhances radiosensitivity of hepatocellular carcinoma. (PubMed, Radiother Oncol)
CCR2+ myeloid cells suppress NOS2-mediated antitumor responses in HCC following RT. Targeting RT-recruited CCR2+ myeloid cells may offer a promising radiosensitizing strategy to overcome therapeutic resistance in HCC.

Mechanism of Keke Tablets in treating post-infection cough based on network pharmacology and metabolomics (PubMed, Zhongguo Zhong Yao Za Zhi)
Western blot analysis further confirmed that KKP can effectively downregulate the expression of cytochrome P450 family 1 subfamily A member 1(CYP1A1), nitric oxide synthase 2(NOS2) and monoamine oxidase A(MAOA), arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase(ALOX5), prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 1(PTGS1), and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase(p38 MAPK). In summary, the study reveals the clinical potential of KKP in the treatment of PIC and confirms that KKP alleviates inflammation and improves cough symptoms through multi-target and multi-pathway regulation, with the mechanism of action likely related to MAPK signaling pathway, arginine metabolism, and other inflammation-related pathways.

Assessment of the effectiveness of recombinant human lactoferrin using an intestinal barrier and Tohoku hospital pediatrics-1 co-culture model (PubMed, Wei Sheng Yan Jiu)
The rHLF may inhibit the expression of IL-1β, IL-8 and CCL2, directly reducing intestinal mucosal inflammation and protecting the intestinal mucosal barrier function. It may also downregulate the oxidative stress pathway enzyme PTGS2 and other mechanisms, providing protective effects against LPS-induced in vitro damage to the intestinal epithelial barrier.

Application of fully digital occlusal splints in painful temporomandibular disorders: a randomized controlled clinical study. (PubMed, Head Face Med)
Digital occlusal splints effectively mitigate TMD-related pain and dysfunction, likely through synergistic mechanisms involving occlusal stabilization, joint structural optimization, and inflammatory modulation. This technology represents a promising precision-based approach for personalized TMD management.

Comprehensive bioinformatics analysis identified and validated KIT as a key gene associated with glutamine metabolism in thyroid carcinoma. (PubMed, Medicine (Baltimore))
Tumors with low KIT expression exhibited enhanced immune infiltration and significant correlation with immune checkpoint genes, including PDCD1LG2 and PDCD1 (P < .05). This study identifies KIT as a key GMRG in THCA, positioning it as a novel diagnostic biomarker and a potential therapeutic evaluation marker for tumor progression.
