Repurposing of phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitor sildenafil as a therapeutic agent to prevent gastric cancer growth through suppressing c-MYC stability for IL-6 transcription by Zhenzhan Zhang, Wuqing Huang, Donghua Huang, Zhou Xu, Qingfeng Xie, Xin Tan, Wenjun He, Weihao Yang, Guoxin Li, Jianguang Ji, Hao Liu

“…Functionally, the PDE5 inhibitor sildenafil exhibited the suppressive ability to prevent oncogenic growth in GC. Mechanistically, sildenafil restrained GC growth by directly activating PKG through PDE5 inhibition for regulating c-MYC expression via its phosphorylation and ubiquitination degradation, thereby suppressing c-MYC stability for IL-6 transcription within the downstream IL-6/JAK/STAT3 signalling pathway. …”

Genetic analysis of ocular tumour-associated genes using large genomic datasets: insights into selection constraints and variant representation in the population by Jose S Pulido, Mandeep S Sagoo, Omar A Mahroo, Alexander Tanner

“…In addition, we identified genes with under-representation/over-representation of missense/synonymous variants.Results Fifty-seven genes were identified in association with ocular and extraocular tumours.Regarding haploinsufficiency, 41% of genes met the criteria for negative selection, with 57% categorised as tumour-suppressing and 39% as oncogenic. Most genes were involved in regulatory processes. …”

Effect of human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination on HPV infection and recurrence of HPV related disease after local surgical treatment: A systematic review and meta-analysis. by Qinxue Cao, Yantao Hou, Chaoyang Wang, Juntao Yin

“…<h4>Conclusions</h4>Adjuvant HPV vaccination after surgical excision is not associated with a reduced risk of recurrent HSIL overall or a reduced risk of recurrent lesions caused by the most oncogenic strains (HPV16/18). Therefore, HPV vaccination should not be considered for adjuvant treatment in patients undergoing surgical excision.…”
