Digital spatial profiling of human parathyroid tumors reveals cellular and molecular alterations linked to vitamin D deficiency
Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is a common endocrine neoplastic disorder characterized by disrupted calcium homeostasis secondary to inappropriately elevated parathyroid hormone (PTH) secretion. Low levels of serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD) are…

Phase 2 Trial of Stereotactic Ablative Radiotherapy for Patients with Primary Renal Cancer
Background: Most renal cell carcinomas (RCCs) are localized and managed by active surveillance, surgery, or minimally invasive techniques. Stereotactic ablative radiation (SAbR) may provide an innovative non-invasive alternative although prospective…

Accumulation of pTau231 at the Postsynaptic Density in Early Alzheimer’s Disease
Background:: Phosphorylated cytoplasmic tau inclusions correlate with and precede cognitive deficits in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). However, pathological tau accumulation and relationships to synaptic changes remain unclear. Objective:: To address this,…

MULTIPLATFORM ANALYSIS OF INTRATUMORAL PTEN HETEROGENEITY IN MELANOMA
Loss of protein expression of the tumor suppressor PTEN is associated with increased cancer aggressiveness, decreased tumor immune infiltration, and resistance to immune and targeted therapies in melanoma. We assessed…

Macrophage infiltration promotes regrowth in MYCN-amplified neuroblastoma after chemotherapy
Despite aggressive treatment, the 5-year event-free survival rate for children with high-risk neuroblastoma is

Spatial multi-omics revealed the impact of tumor ecosystem heterogeneity on immunotherapy efficacy in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer treated with bispecific antibody
Background: Immunotherapy for malignant tumors has made great progress, but many patients do not benefit from it. The complex intratumoral heterogeneity (ITH) hindered the in-depth exploration of immunotherapy. Conventional bulk…

A window of opportunity trial evaluating intratumoral injection of Copaxone® in patients with percutaneously accessible tumors
Background: This window of opportunity trial evaluated the safety of intratumoral Copaxone® and profiled immune markers in biopsies before and after treatment. Methods: Patients with percutaneously accessible malignancies scheduled for…

Angiogenesis regulators S100A4, SPARC and SPP1 correlate with macrophage infiltration and are prognostic biomarkers in colon and rectal cancers
Introduction: Increasing evidence suggests that it is necessary to find effective and robust clinically validated prognostic biomarkers that can identify “high-risk” colorectal cancer (CRC) patients. Currently, available prognostic factors largely…

Spatial transcriptomics analysis of zone-dependent hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury murine model
Hepatic ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury is a common complication in liver transplantation. The connection between I/R-induced injury response and liver heterogeneity has yet to be fully understood. In this study, we…

The HOPX and BLBP landscape and gliogenic regions in developing human brain
Outer radial glial cells (oRGs) give rise to neurons and glial cells and contribute to cell migration and expansion in developing neocortex. HOPX has been described as a marker of…

Spatially restricted tumour-associated and host-associated immune drivers correlate with the recurrence sites of pancreatic cancer
Objective: Most patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) will experience recurrence after resection. Here, we investigate spatially organised immune determinants of PDAC recurrence. Design: PDACs (n=284; discovery cohort) were classified…

Increased fatty acid metabolism and decreased glycolysis are hallmarks of metabolic reprogramming within microglia in degenerating white matter during recovery from experimental stroke
The goal of this study was to evaluate changes in metabolic homeostasis during the first 12 weeks of recovery in a distal middle cerebral artery occlusion mouse model of stroke.…
