D-2-hydroxyglutarate (D-2-HG) is an oncometabolite that accumulates due to mutations in isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 and 2 (IDH1/2). D-2-HG may be used as a surrogate marker for IDH1/2 mutant cancers, yet simple an...
Combined hepatocellular-cholangiocarcinoma (cHCC-CCA) represents an uncommon variant of primary liver cancer. In recent years, its incidence rate has increased. Thus, it is essential to perform comprehensive i...
Unmet supportive care needs reducing the quality of life of colorectal cancer (CRC) patients. As existing studies have indicated the supportive care needs of CRC patients of different genders differ, the main ...
Neuroblastoma (NB), a common infantile neuroendocrine tumor, presents a substantial therapeutic challenge when MYCN is amplified. Given that the protein structure of N-Myc is disordered, we utilized Alphafold ...
