GHITM regulates malignant phenotype and sensitivity to PD-1 blockade of renal cancer cells via Notch signalling
J Cell Mol Med. 2024 Apr;28(8):e18290. doi: 10.1111/jcmm.18290.ABSTRACTGrowth hormone inducible transmembrane protein (GHITM), one member of Bax inhibitory protein-like family, has been rarely studied, and the clinical importance and biological functions of GHITM in kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC) still remain unknown. In the present study, we found that GHITM was downregulated in KIRC. Aberrant GHITM downregulation related to clinicopathological feature and unfavourable prognosis of KIRC patients. GHITM overexpression inhibited KIRC cell proliferation, migration and invasion in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically,...

Visual extended reality tools in image-guided surgery in urology: a systematic review
CONCLUSIONS: AR, VR and MR techniques have emerged as highly effective new tools for image-guided surgery, especially for urologic oncology.

Celastrol Elicits Antitumor Effects through Inducing Immunogenic Cell Death and Downregulating PD-L1 in ccRCC
CONCLUSION: These findings indicate that CeT not only induces ICD but also suppresses PD-L1 by down-regulating MAPK1 expression, which will provide an attractive strategy for ccRCC immunotherapy.PMID:38584553 | DOI:10.2174/0113816128288970240321073436 (Source: Current Pharmaceutical Design)

TFE3/PI3K/Akt/mTOR axis in renal cell carcinoma affects tumor microenvironment
Am J Pathol. 2024 Apr 6:S0002-9440(24)00122-6. doi: 10.1016/j.ajpath.2024.02.022. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe role of the PI3K/Akt pathway in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) progression, metastasis, and resistance to therapies has not been thoroughly investigated. Transcription factor E3 (TFE3) expression is related to poorer prognosis and tumor microenvironment in patients with RCC. We aimed to determine the relationship between TFE3 and the PI3K/Akt pathway. TFE3 downregulation was achieved by transient transfection of small interfering RNA (siRNA) and short hairpin RNA (shRNA) in UOK146 cells. TFE3 overexpression was i...
