Complex roles of Hippo-YAP/TAZ signaling in hepatocellular carcinoma
ConclusionThis review highlights the important roles of Yap/Taz in activating Hippo pathway in liver cancer. The  recent findings on the crosstalks between the Hippo and other cancer associated pathways and moleculars are also discussed.Graphical abstractIn this review, we summarized and discussed recent breakthroughs in our understanding of how key components of the Hippo-YAP/TAZ pathway influence the hepatocellular carcinoma, including their effects on tumor occurrence and development, their roles in regulating metastasis, and their function in chemotherapy resistance. Further, the molecular mechanism and roles in regu...

DNA methylation-related lncRNAs predict prognosis and immunotherapy response in gastric cancer
ConclusionsThis study describes a DNA methylation regulator-related lncRNA signature model, which provides a new approach for predicting therapeutic response and patient stratification in GC. Assessing lncRNA expression patterns in individual tumors will contribute to enhancing our understanding of tumor microenvironment infiltration and guide more effective immunotherapy strategies.

Development and verification of a deep learning-based m6A modification model for clinical prognosis prediction of renal cell carcinoma
ConclusionsIn summary, we developed and verified a deep learning-based m6A-prognosis model for patients with RCC. We proved that METTL14 deficiency could promote the migration and proliferation of renal cancer cells, which might throw light on the cancer prevention by targeting the METTL14 pathway.

Immune checkpoint inhibitor-associated adrenal insufficiency in Chinese cancer patients: a retrospective analysis
ConclusionThis retrospective study comprehensively documented the clinical characterization of ICI-associated AI. Those initially receiving intravenous hydrocortisone after diagnosis of AI were associated with higher likelihood of death. Physicians should be aware of the variability of ICI-associated irAEs early in the treatment, early diagnoses, and timely management should be made.
