Genetically engineered mouse model of pleomorphic liposarcoma: Immunophenotyping and histologic characterization
CONCLUSION: Genetically engineered RPP mice reliably produced soft-tissue tumors consistent with pleomorphic liposarcoma, which immunological findings similar to other soft-tissue sarcomas. This model may demonstrate utility in testing treatments for this rare disease, including immunomodulatory therapies.PMID:38199172 | PMC:PMC10788790 | DOI:10.1016/j.neo.2023.100956 (Source: Neoplasia)

Cardiac substructures dosimetric predicts cardiac toxicity and prognosis in esophageal squamous cell cancer treated by radiotherapy
CONCLUSIONS: In the population of ESCC patients receiving RT, we showed that the CS factors had a substantial predictive value for the various types and grades of CEs. The elevated radiation dose of LAD was a significant contributor to a higher rate of cardiac events and a worse prognosis.PMID:38199173 | PMC:PMC10788793 | DOI:10.1016/j.neo.2024.100969 (Source: Neoplasia)

Genomic profiling in GIST: Implications in clinical outcome and future challenges
Neoplasia. 2024 Jan 5;48:100959. doi: 10.1016/j.neo.2023.100959. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTGastrointestinal Stromal Tumors (GIST) are the most frequent mesenchymal neoplasia of the digestive tract. Genomic alterations in KIT, PDFGRA, SDH, and BRAF genes are essential in GIST oncogenesis. Therefore, the mutations in these genes have demonstrated clinical implications. Tumors with deletions in KIT-exon 11 or duplications in exon 9 are associated with a worse prognosis. In contrast, KIT-exon 11 substitutions and duplications are associated with a better clinical outcome. Moreover, mutations in Kit exon 9 and 11 are action...

Impact of tissue penetration and albumin binding on design of T cell targeted bispecific agents
Neoplasia. 2024 Jan 5;48:100962. doi: 10.1016/j.neo.2023.100962. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTBispecific agents are a rapidly growing class of cancer therapeutics, and immune targeted bispecific agents have the potential to expand functionality well beyond monoclonal antibody agents. Humabodies⁎ are fully human single domain antibodies that can be linked in a modular fashion to form multispecific therapeutics. However, the effect of heterogeneous delivery on the efficacy of crosslinking bispecific agents is currently unclear. In this work, we utilize a PSMA-CD137 Humabody with an albumin binding half-life extension (HLE...

Secreted insulin-like growth factor binding protein 5 functions as a tumor suppressor and chemosensitizer through inhibiting insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor/protein kinase B pathway in acute myeloid leukemia
CONCLUSIONS: Our findings revealed secreted rather than intracellular IGFBP5 as a tumor-suppressor and chemosensitizer in AML. Upregulation of serum IGFBP5 by overexpression or addition of extrinsic rhIGFBP5 may serve as a suitable therapeutic approach for AML.PMID:38159363 | DOI:10.1016/j.neo.2023.100952 (Source: Neoplasia)

Characteristics and survival of primary urothelial carcinoma of the prostate: A multi-center retrospective study of 18 cases
CONCLUSION: PUCP, a rare but highly aggressive type of prostate cancer, should be considered in men with abnormalities on MRI and normal serum PSA concentrations. Positive GATA-3, P63, and negative PSA are typical immunohistochemistry features. Radical cystectomy and systematic therapies can be effective.PMID:38142529 | DOI:10.1016/j.neo.2023.100961 (Source: Neoplasia)
