Review

[Trends In Cancer] The authors review the existing literature on the role of fusion genes in pancreatic tumors and their clinical potential as effective biomarkers and therapeutic targets.

[Cell Death Discovery] Investigators summarized the apoptosis, necroptosis and autophagy play both promoting and inhibiting roles in the differentiation, invasion of trophoblast, remodeling of the uterine spiral artery and decidualization, whereas ferroptosis and pyroptosis have adverse effects.

[Trends In Cancer] De novo post-translational acetylation of the AR, HOXB13, and H2A at K609, K13, and K130, respectively, and phosphorylation of H4 at Y88 have emerged as key epigenetic modifications associated with castration-resistant prostate cancer.

[International Journal Of Urology] Scientists focus on multifaceted resistance mechanisms, including androgen receptor overexpression, splice variants, missense mutations, the involvement of the glucocorticoid receptor, and alterations in coregulators and transcription factors, revealing their roles in castration-resistant prostate cancer progression.

[Cancer And Metastasis Reviews] The dysregulation in molecular profile of prostate cancer including upregulation of STAT3 and PI3K/Akt, downregulation of STAT3, and aberrant expression of non-coding RNAs are determining factor for response of cancer cells to chemotherapy.

[Acta Neurochirurgica] Scientists reviewed molecular mechanisms governing the pas de deux of brain macrophages and endothelial cells.
