Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is a lethal malignancy with a high recurrence and distant metastasis rate, posing significant challenges to patient prognosis. Recent studies suggest that tumor-as...
Cancer biomarker discovery is essential for early detection and monitoring, yet there is a lack of comprehensive studies examining organ-specific biomarkers across various cancer types. In this study, we analy...
It is challenging to identify Papillary Thyroid Cancer (PTC) which shows atypia of undetermined significance (AUS) by Fine-needle Aspiration (FNA). This study aims to seek the meaningful quantitative biomarker...
Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations are present in 10–60% of all non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients and are associated with dismal prognosis. Lung cancer brain metastases (LCBM) are a co...
Alanine Serine Cysteine transporter 2 (ASCT2/SLC1A5) is a key glutamine transporter in cancer cells and has been shown in a variety of cancers to promote tumor growth by reprogramming glutamine metabolism and ...
Liver cancer is one of the most common malignant tumours in humans, and a large proportion of patients are diagnosed at an advanced stage due to rapid growth and distant metastasis; thus, there is an urgent ne...
Accurately resolving the composition of tumor-infiltrating leukocytes is pivotal for advancing cancer immunotherapy strategies. Despite the success of some clinical trials, applying these strategies remains li...
