Prognostic model for gastric cancer patients with COVID-19 and network pharmacology study on treatment by lentinan

This study investigated how lentinan, a compound from shiitake mushrooms, might help treat patients who have both gastric cancer and COVID-19. Researchers identified five genes that predict patient outcomes and found that lentinan may work by controlling immune cell activity and reducing inflammation. The study suggests lentinan could be a useful additional treatment for this challenging combination of diseases, though more research is needed.

Unveiling SSR4: a promising biomarker in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma

Researchers discovered that a protein called SSR4 is overexpressed in esophageal cancer cells and is associated with poor patient outcomes. This protein appears to be involved in how cancer cells communicate with immune cells in the tumor environment. The findings suggest SSR4 could be used as a diagnostic marker and potential therapeutic target for treating esophageal cancer patients.
