Gcn2 rescues reprogramming in the absence of Hog1/p38 signaling in C. neoformans during thermal stress by David Goich, Amanda L. M. Bloom, Sean R. Duffy, Maritza N. Ventura, John C. Panepinto

“…Importantly, our study highlights the insufficiency of using single-gene deletion mutants to study gene function, since many phenotypes associated with Hog1 deletion were driven by Gcn2 signaling in this background, rather than loss of direct Hog1 activity.…”

Clinical Utility of Combined Tissue and Plasma Next-Generation Sequencing in Patients With Advanced, Treatment-Naïve NSCLC by Helena Bote-de Cabo, MD, Marco Siringo, MD, Esther Conde, MD, PhD, Susana Hernández, PhD, Fernando López-Ríos, MD, PhD, Alicia Castelo-Loureiro, MD, Esther García-Lorenzo, MD, Javier Baena, MD-PhD, Mercedes Herrera, MD, Ana Belén Enguita, MD, Yolanda Ruano, PhD, Jon Zugazagoitia, MD, PhD, Luis Paz-Ares, MD, PhD

“…The addition of orthogonal biopsy (tissue to liquid, or liquid to tissue) offered no relevant clinical value in cases with ESCAT I or II targetable drivers already detected by one method. In contrast, adding orthogonal biopsy incremented the detection of ESCAT I or II targetable drivers not only in cases with uninformative testing (undetectable circulating tumor DNA, unavailable/inadequate tissue) but also in about 5% of the patients with seemingly informative but driver undetected molecular results. …”

The prognostic value of circulating tumor DNA in malignant melanoma patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors: a systematic review and meta-analysis by Lei Liu, Shufu Hou, Aiping Zhu, Bing Yan, Linchuan Li, Dandan Song

“…Furthermore, the detectability of ctDNA during treatment was also significantly associated with worse OS (HR = 4.57, 95% CI = 3.03–6.91, P < 0.001) and PFS (HR = 3.79, 95% CI = 2.13–6.75, P < 0.001).ConclusionsThis meta-analysis indicates that in MM patients receiving ICI therapy, detectable and high levels of ctDNA are significantly associated with poorer OS and PFS. …”

Fast and Slow Roasting of Alcohol- and Honey-infused Coffee Blends: A Comparative Study of PAH and N-PAH Emissions by Hsin-Chieh Kung, Chung-Hsien Hung, Kun-Hui Lin, Bo-Wun Huang, Nicholas Kiprotich Cheruiyot, Guo-Ping Chang-Chien

“…Following roasting, the PAH concentrations decreased to 34.8 ng g−1 and 40.5 ng g−1 during fast and slow roasting, respectively, with PAH4 concentrations below the detection limit (LOQ = 0.2 ng g−1). N-PAHs in the flue gas, green coffee, and roasted coffee beans were also below detection limits, except for the case of fast roasting of B-3 (coffee infused with bourbon whiskey and granulated sugar) where concentrations were 0.503 ng g−1. …”
