Association between folate and glutamine metabolism and prognosis of kidney cancer by Jiaxuan Qin, Jiaxuan Qin, Jiaxuan Qin, Jiaxuan Qin, Chaoyue Ouyang, Chaoyue Ouyang, Chaoyue Ouyang, Chaoyue Ouyang, Xuan Zhuang, Xuan Zhuang, Xuan Zhuang, Xuan Zhuang

“…Higher levels of serum folate may be related to improved cancer-specific survival (CSS) in kidney cancer patients in the U.S.ConclusionFolate and glutamine metabolism-related genes, especially SLC1A5 and MTHFD2, were associated with the prognosis, tumor stage, and lymph node metastasis status in KIRC. Higher KIRC SLC1A5 or MTHFD2 expression levels were associated with higher tumor stages, increased lymph node metastasis possibilities, poorer OS, and poorer RFS. …”

Cisplatin resistance alters ovarian cancer spheroid formation and impacts peritoneal invasion by Lydia C. Powell, Marcos Quintela, David W. James, Emenike Onyido, David Howard, Kadie Edwards, Jordan L. Turney, Charlotte R. Morgan, Jenny Worthington, Nicole Williams, Alexander Dulebo, Heiko Haschke, Deyarina Gonzalez, R. Steven Conlan, Lewis W. Francis

“…Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is an aggressive and lethal gynaecologic malignancy due to late diagnosis and acquired resistance to chemotherapeutic drugs, such as cisplatin. EOC metastasis commonly occurs through the extensive dissemination of multicellular aggregates, formed of cells originally shed from the primary ovarian tumour, within the peritoneal cavity. …”
