Summary: This study identified protein biomarkers with altered expression levels in tear samples from women diagnosed with breast cancer. Through LC-MS/MS analysis, 14 potential biomarkers were identified and validated by ELISA. The results showed significantly higher expression of S100A8 and S100A9 in breast cancer patients, while Galectin-3 binding protein had increased expression in the control group. These findings support the use of tear proteins in detecting systemic diseases such as breast cancer.

Summary: This study identified potential biomarkers for bladder cancer diagnosis and disease progression using aptamer screening and systems biology analysis. Urine d-dimer showed high sensitivity (97%) for bladder cancer diagnosis, while urine IL-8 and IgA were associated with disease progression. These biomarkers could be used for initial triage and patient follow-up, reducing the need for invasive cystoscopy-based diagnostic methods.

Summary: This study evaluated protein biomarkers in relation to colorectal cancer risk using prospectively collected plasma samples. The main validation analysis did not show statistically significant proteins, but exploratory subgroup analyses found associations between certain proteins and colon or rectal cancer risk. Adding protein markers to basic risk predictive models modestly improved performance.

Summary: TARGET (tumour characterisation to guide experimental targeted therapy) aims to match cancer patients entering early phase clinical trials to the best treatment based on their genetics, reducing the need for recruiting more patients. The study developed a Wellness Score using blood samples to predict patient survival more accurately than traditional performance status measurements. This score showed promising results in predicting overall survival and warrants further evaluation in larger patient populations.

Summary: The identification of clinically relevant biomarkers is a challenge in oncology. Liquid chromatography coupled to multiple reaction monitoring mass spectrometry (LC-MRM/MS) is an effective technique for measuring proteins in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues. LC-MRM/MS can accurately quantify a large number of proteins and identify potential biomarkers in tumor samples.

Summary: GD2 is expressed in around 60% of primary TNBC tumors at variable levels and is associated with worse overall survival of patients with TNBC. Treatment with dinutuximab significantly decreased adhesion and migration of TNBC cells, inhibited mTOR signaling, and reduced tumor growth in both cell-line xenografts and PDX models. Our data provide proof-of-concept for the critical role of GD2 in BCSCs and demonstrate the potential of dinutuximab as a novel therapeutic approach for TNBC.

Summary: In this study, proteomic and metabolomic analysis of exosomes from prostate cancer (PCa) patients was performed. Several potential biomarkers for PCa and castration resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) were identified, including the proteins LRG1 and ITIH3. Metabolomic evaluation also revealed differentially expressed metabolites. These findings suggest the potential of exosomal proteins and metabolites as markers for CRPC and confirm the important role of the protein LRG1 in PCa progression.

Summary: As the field of translational 'omics has progressed, refined classifiers at both genomic and proteomic levels have emerged to decipher the heterogeneity of breast cancer in a clinically-applicable way. The integration of 'omics knowledge at the DNA, RNA and protein levels is further expanding biologic understanding of breast cancer and opportunities for customized treatment. Recent advances in omics-based genomics and proteomics diagnostics, single cell analysis approaches, and targeted therapeutics development have provided valuable insights into the molecular subtyping of triple negative breast cancer and potential treatment strategies.

Summary: This study analyzes blood samples from patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) to diagnose and monitor the disease. The results suggest that certain proteins, such as MIC-A/B and FASLG, increase after surgery, indicating the removal of cancer cells. The level of HGF initially increases postoperatively but later decreases, potentially indicating the removal of malignant cells. Additionally, low levels of FASLG may serve as a prognostic biomarker for relapse or death in NSCLC patients.

Summary: This study reconsiders the optimal classifications of Lie algebras of some well-known equations under their group of inner automorphism, demonstrating explicit isomorphism between Lie algebras and sub-algebras that have already been classified. The use of such isomorphism proves beneficial for classifying Lie algebras with dimension <= 4, utilizing previously available classifications. Additionally, examples of Lie algebras are considered for explicit isomorphism, further enhancing the understanding of their classifications.

Summary: This review discusses the progress in characterization of nuclear genetic male sterility (NGMS) in wheat and its advantages in hybrid wheat varieties, compared to chemical hybridizing agents (CHAs) and cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS). Four wheat genes, such as Ms1, Ms5, TaMs26 and TaMs45, have been characterized for their contribution to male fertility, with potential for commercial-scale hybrid seed production.

Summary: In this work, a member of the Manakov-Santini hierarchy is investigated using Lie group analysis and the multiplier approach. It is shown that the 11-dimensional Lie algebra for the MS system is completely solvable. The construction of inequivalent subalgebras in one and two dimensions is discussed, and these subalgebras are used to obtain reductions and exact solutions. In addition to Lie symmetry analysis, a set of non-trivial conservation laws is obtained.

Summary: This study demonstrates the successful application of transcriptional gene silencing (TGS) in wheat, using a promoter inverted repeat (pIR) to silence anther-specific genes and induce male sterility. The pIRs achieve TGS by DNA methylation of homologous promoter sequences, effectively suppressing transcription. This approach provides an alternative to gene knockout strategies for hybrid wheat breeding and seed production.

Summary: In this paper, the surface micro-hardness of cryogenically treated titanium alloys was predicted using the PMEDM process, ANN approach, and Taguchi methodology. The control parameters, such as pulse off-time and peak current, were found to significantly influence the micro-hardness and surface properties. The ANN predicted values of micro-hardness were in good agreement with the actual experimental values.

Summary: The nonlinear variable coefficient Zakharov-Kuznetsov (Vc-ZK) equation is derived using reductive perturbation technique for ion-acoustic solitary waves in magnetized three-component dusty plasma. Generalized symmetries of the equation are investigated using a compatibility method, leading to the discovery of new symmetries and group invariant solutions. Furthermore, nontrivial local conservation laws of the equation are also explored.
