Summary: This study identified 15 key genes potentially associated with schizophrenia through analyzing multiple gene expression datasets using various bioinformatics algorithms. The study also found correlations between the expression of these hub genes and immune infiltrating cells. Furthermore, a risk prediction model based on these genes and immune cells achieved high accuracy in early diagnosis of schizophrenia.

Summary: In recent years, the genetic landscape of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has been explored, identifying TERT promoter, CTNNB1, and TP53 as the most frequent mutated genes. Therapies directed against specific targetable genomic alterations are the basis of personalized medicine, but are not yet available in HCC. Tools such as liquid biopsy and ctDNA may help in identifying biomarkers of response or resistance to treatment in HCC.

Summary: This review discusses recent advancements in identifying proteomic/genomic/epigenomic/transcriptomic biomarkers for predicting HCC treatment efficacy with the use of multi-kinase inhibitors (MKIs), CDK4/6 inhibitors, and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). Various biomarkers such as alpha-fetoprotein, des-carboxyprothrombin, and vascular endothelial growth factor have the potential to predict the efficacy of sorafenib treatment.

Summary: Schizophrenia is characterized by delusions, hallucinations, and impaired socio-occupational function. Identifying biomarkers through blood-based gene expression studies can aid in early diagnosis and effective treatment strategies. The overlap of genetic, epigenetic, and gene expression changes suggests an interplay of genetic and environmental factors in schizophrenia.

Summary: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a leading global cancer, primarily occurring in genetically susceptible individuals with liver cirrhosis and exposure to risk factors. Temporal and geographical variations exist in HCC, with a shift from viral to nonviral causes and a higher burden in regions with a high sociodemographic index. Hepatitis viruses are the predominant causes of HCC in Asia and Africa, while genetic conditions contributing to HCC risk are less recognized outside North America and Europe. This review evaluates the epidemiology, risk factors, and genetics of HCC, including monogenic diseases, single-nucleotide polymorphisms, gut microbiome, and somatic mutations.

Summary: This study established and validated two prognostic markers (gene expression score and immune score) based on field cancerization profiles for the diagnosis, treatment, and prognostic evaluation of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The results showed that field cancerization profile-based models outperformed conventional models in risk evaluation, providing insights for further research on prognostic model construction. The findings regarding immune cells and immunotherapy may explain the diverse prognosis and clinical benefit of HCC, and contribute to molecular mechanism studies and therapeutic target development.

Summary: HCC is the most common primary malignancy of the liver, with a high fatality rate. Genetic and epigenetic aberrations are commonly observed in HCC, including chromatin remodeling, histone alterations, DNA methylation, and ncRNA expression. In-depth understanding of the epigenetics of HCC is critical for developing rational clinical strategies, improving overall survival, and predicting therapeutic outcomes.
