Open AccessA reliable transcriptomic risk-score applicable to formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded biopsies improves outcome prediction in localized prostate cancer
Clinical manifestation of prostate cancer (PCa) is highly variable. Aggressive tumors require radical treatment while clinically non-significant ones may be suitable for active surveillance. We previously deve...

Open AccessLabel-free multiphoton microscopy enables histopathological assessment of colorectal liver metastases and supports automated classification of neoplastic tissue
As the state of resection margins is an important prognostic factor after extirpation of colorectal liver metastases, surgeons aim to obtain negative margins, sometimes elaborated by resections of the positive...

Open AccessIntegrated radiogenomics analyses allow for subtype classification and improved outcome prognosis of patients with locally advanced HNSCC
Patients with locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) may benefit from personalised treatment, requiring biomarkers that characterize the tumour and predict treatment response. We integr...

DMD genomic deletions characterize a subset of progressive/higher-grade meningiomas with poor outcome
Progressive meningiomas that have failed surgery and radiation have a poor prognosis and no standard therapy. While meningiomas are more common in females overall, progressive meningiomas are enriched in males...

Open AccessNRP2 transcriptionally regulates its downstream effector WDFY1
Neuropilins (NRPs) are cell surface glycoproteins that often act as co-receptors for plexins and VEGF family receptors. Neuropilin-2 (NRP2), a family member of NRPs, was shown to regulate autophagy and endocyt...

Impact of reassessment of colonic hyperplastic polyps by expert GI pathologists
Recommended follow-up intervals after endoscopic removal of hyperplastic polyps (HP) and sessile serrated adenomas (SSA) differ because of assumed differences in biological behaviour. However, histopathologic ...

Open AccessDickkopf-1 is regulated by the mevalonate pathway in breast cancer
Amino-bisphosphonates and statins inhibit the mevalonate pathway, and may exert anti-tumor effects. The Wnt inhibitor dickkopf-1 (DKK-1) promotes osteolytic bone lesions by inhibiting osteoblast functions and ...

Serrated polyps of the colon and rectum (hyperplastic polyps, sessile serrated adenomas, traditional serrated adenomas, and mixed polyps)—proposal for diagnostic criteria
Until recently, two major types of colorectal epithelial polyps were distinguished: the adenoma and the hyperplastic polyp. While adenomas—because of their cytological atypia—were recognized as the precursor l...

IκBγ is expressed in mast cells
IκBγ (IkappaBgamma) is a 70-kDa protein that is encoded by the C-terminal part of the NF-κB p105 gene and acts as an inhibitor of the transcription factor NF-κB. Until now, IκBγ expression has only been descri...
