| 1 | Mutually exclusive epigenetic modification on SIX6 with hypermethylation for precancerous stage and metastasis emergence tracing显示文摘Dear Editor,Aberrant DNA methylation gets involved in cancer initiation,progression,and recurrence,which in turn makes it an ideal cancer biomarker.Various methylation markers or their panels have been developed in diverse cancer types.However,the model-constructing based marker mining strategy and incompatibility of application have greatly impeded their ways to clinic.Thus,single methylation marker applicable to all/most cancer types and multiple clinical scenarios is desperately needed.The hope came from the unexpected observation that HIST1H4F was universally hypermethylated in all 17 cancer types;thus,we raised the concept of“Universal Cancer Only Marker(UCOM)”and established a paradigm for discovery and clinical application of UCOM.1 Recently,a novel UCOM,hypermethylated PCDHGB7,was identified and found to advance cervical cancer(CC)screening to the precancerous stage.2 During the screening of UCOM,we discerned a bunch of cancer cell-differentially methylated regions.1 Among them,sine oculis(SIX)homeobox family of transcription factors,which were found to function as tumorigenesis regulator by promoting epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition and metastasis recently in addition to their traditional roles in tissue formation and organogenesis,3 sparked our special attention.Herein,we interrogate whether SIX6 methylation could serve as a novel UCOM and its potential applications. | Shihua Dong Zhicong Yang Peng Xu Wanxiang Zheng Baolong Zhang Fangqiu Fu Zhanrui Mao Jianlin Yuan Haiquan Chen Wenqiang Yu | 2022 | Signal Transduction and Targeted Therapy2022,7,8: | 1 |
| 2 | Identification of Germline Mutations in East‑Asian Young Never‑Smokers with Lung Adenocarcinoma by Whole‑Exome Sequencing显示文摘Recently,an increasing number of young never-smokers are diagnosed with lung cancer.The aim of this study is to investigate the genetic predisposition of lung cancer in these patients and discover candidate pathogenic variants for lung adenocarcinoma in young never-smokers.Peripheral blood was collected from 123 never-smoking east-Asian patients diagnosed with lung adenocarcinoma before the age of 40.Whole-exome sequencing(WES)was conducted on genomic DNA extracted from peripheral blood cells.As a result,3,481 single nucleotide variants were identified.By bioinformatical tools and the published gene list associated with genetic predisposition of cancer,pathogenic variants were detected in ten germline genes:ATR,FANCD2,FANCE,GATA2,HFE,MSH2,PDGFRA,PMS2,SDHB,and WAS.Patients with pathogenic variants were more likely to occur in females(9/10,90.0%)and have stage IV lung adenocarcinoma(4/10,40%).Furthermore,germline muta-tions in 17 genes(ASB18,B3GALT5,CLEC4F,COL6A6,CYP4B1,C6orf132,EXO1,GATA4,HCK,KCP,NPHP4,PIGX,PPIL2,PPP1R3G,RRBP1,SALL4,and TTC28),which occurred in at least two patients,displayed potentially pathogenic effects.Gene ontology analysis further showed that these genes with germline mutations were mainly located in nucleo-plasm and associated with DNA repair-related biological processes.The study provides spectrum of pathogenic variants and functional explanation for genetic predisposition of lung adenocarcinoma in young never-smokers,which sheds a light on prevention and early diagnosis of lung cancer. | Fangqiu Fu Xiaoting Tao Zhonglin Jiang Zhendong Gao Yue Zhao Yuan Li Hong Hu Libing Shen Yihua Sun Yang Zhang | 2023 | Phenomics2023,3,2: | 0 |
| 3 | Treating lung cancer:defining surgical curative time window显示文摘Lung cancer remains the leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide.Despite the great strides made by emerging treatment regimens,such as targeted therapy and immunotherapy,surgery remains the sole effective method of cure for early-stage nonsmall cell lung cancer(NSCLC).As the disease progresses from early to advanced stages,the 5-year survival rate decreases drastically.Even for stage I NSCLC,the 5-year recurrence-free survival(RFS)barely reaches 80%after surgical resection with curative intent,1 indicating that~20%of patients experience disease recurrence within 5 years and are not definitively“cured”.Currently,there is no definite way to predict lung cancer recurrence individually.With the clinical application of low-dose computed tomography(LDCT)in lung cancer screening,some patients meeting certain requirements achieve 100%5-year RFS after surgical resection,suggesting that they are definitely cured.However,there still remains a lack of clarity regarding the characteristics of this particular group.We propose that defining the curative time window,during which patients attain definite cure without overdiagnosis and overtreatment,would better guide clinical management of lung cancer. | Fangqiu Fu Zongwei Chen Haiquan Chen | 2023 | Cell Research2023,33,9: | 0 |
| 4 | An Improved Group Decision-Making Model for the Investment Options of Small-Scale Photovoltaic Systems Based on Cumulative Prospect Theory and Choquet Integral显示文摘With the development of photovoltaic(PV) industry, installing small-scale PV systems which are integrated into the buildings becomes popular. Therefore, it is important to make optimal investment decisions for investors and consumers. This paper proposes an improved group decision-making method which integrates the cumulative prospect theory and Choquet integral for the investment options of small-scale PV systems. From the perspective of sustainability, the alternatives are evaluated by four criteria, including economic benefits, solar energy condition, carbon emissions and social benefits. Since the performances of criteria are given by decision makers as linguistic variables, the proposed method measures the criteria values by intuitionistic trapezoidal fuzzy numbers. Then the alternatives are evaluated and ranked to determine the optimal option. Finally, the proposed method is implemented in a case study to illustrate its feasibility and effectiveness. | LIU Jicheng FU Xiaoxu XU Fangqiu WANG Zhenzhen LUO Cuicui | 2019 | Wuhan University Journal of Natural Sciences2019,24,6: | 0 |
