Fatty Acid Synthase as a Potential Metabolic Vulnerability in Ocular Adnexal Sebaceous Carcinoma. (PubMed, Cancers (Basel))
Collectively, these findings suggest that MYC expression in SebCA is responsive to FASN inhibition. Pharmacologic targeting of FASN reveals a metabolic vulnerability that may serve as a target for future therapeutic development.

Metabolic reprogramming in clear cell renal cell carcinoma: core pathways and targeted therapeutic strategies. (PubMed, Front Genet)
On the translational front, HIF-2α inhibitors (such as belzutifan), strategies that suppress or oxidize lipids to trigger ferroptosis, and interventions targeting glutamine and one-carbon metabolism show promise when rationally combined with ICIs, TKIs, or anti-angiogenic therapies. We propose a stratified decision framework anchored in DCCD state, lipid-droplet/PLIN2 phenotype, ferroptosis sensitivity, and HIF activity, and discuss the emerging roles of radiopathomics (e.g., CT HU-PLIN2 coupling) and circulating metabolic fingerprints in companion diagnostics. Looking toward clinical deployment, advancing standardization within MSI/IBSI and FAIR data principles-and launching biomarker-enriched, prospective multicenter trials-will be essential to demonstrate the real-world value of precision metabolic oncology in the personalized treatment of ccRCC.

Primary poorly differentiated enteric-type adenocarcinoma of the thymus with characteristic intracytoplasmic vacuoles on cytology. (PubMed, Respir Med Case Rep)
The ICVs are immunoreactive for adipophilin and are therefore considered to represent lipid vacuoles. Identifying tumor cells with ICVs in cytology specimens and immunocytochemistry for CK7, CK20, CD5, p40, CDX2, MUC2, KIT, adipophilin, and CEA may be useful for diagnosis.

HPV-driven transcriptome and splicing rewiring under SRPK1 inhibition in cervical cancer. (PubMed, Front Oncol)
While not definitive, this evidence may potentially support the transcriptomic and splicing findings. SRPK1 inhibition may remodel the cervical cancer transcriptome in an HPV-linked manner, with SiHa cells exhibiting changes consistent with suppression of oncogenic signaling, whereas C33A cells adapt through translational and metabolic reprogramming.

Extensive Foamy Cell Change in Serous Tubal Intraepithelial Carcinoma and Tubal High-grade Serous Carcinoma. (PubMed, Int J Gynecol Pathol)
Foamy cell change is a distinctive cytoplasmic alteration in STIC and HGSC. The presence of this histologic feature should prompt immunohistochemical studies to confirm serous differentiation.

DP02 Understanding the histopathological landscape of sebaceous carcinoma. (PubMed, Br J Dermatol)
Standardized reporting is crucial for accurate diagnosis, management and prognosis. Improving compliance with core data reporting will enhance the quality of pathological information, which in turn enhances clinical decision making.

Identification of an efficient immunohistochemical panel for precise differential diagnosis of sebaceous carcinoma of eyelid. (PubMed, Discov Oncol)
In addition, TRPS1 exhibited higher AUC values than GATA3 and adipophilin in differentiating primary and recurrent SCs, although the difference was not significant. Collectively, our findings indicate that the TRPS1/GATA3/adipophilin-based model demonstrated excellent discriminatory efficacy for eyelid malignancies (Kappa = 0.784, micro-average F1 = 0.882, AUC-ROC = 0.964 [95%CI:0.934-0.994]), achieving clinical-grade performance.

Necrotic and apoptotic adipocytes in the hypoxic tumor microenvironment supply triglycerides to induce cisplatin resistance in the metastatic lymph nodes of head and neck carcinoma. (PubMed, Cell Death Dis)
Mechanistically, the hypoxic tumor microenvironment facilitates crosstalk between tumor cells and adipocytes, increasing triglyceride supply from adipocytes. This, in turn, promotes lipid droplet-mitochondria contact in HNSCC cells through PLIN2-CPT1A binding, counteracting cisplatin-induced ROS elevation and contributing to chemoresistance.

Exosome-Mediated Enhancement of Fat Graft Retention: A Comparative Preclinical Study with Stromal Vascular Fraction. (PubMed, Aesthetic Plast Surg)
Our findings highlight the potential of exosomes in improving fat graft retention and overall tissue regeneration, suggesting that fat co-transplanted with exosomes from ASCs could serve as a superior alternative to SVF-enriched lipotransfer.

Prognostic significance of key immune cell functional alterations in clear cell renal cell carcinoma. (PubMed, Transl Cancer Res)
CD8+ T and NK cells exhibit functional polarization and altered cellular communication indicative of augmented anti-tumor immunity in ccRCC. The immune-cell-derived 10-gene signature provides a reliable prognostic tool and guides personalized therapy.
