OBJECTIVES: Although neoadjuvant immunochemotherapy has been widely applied in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), predicting treatment response remains a challenge. We used pretreatment multimodal CT to explore deep learning-based immunochemotherapy...
BACKGROUND: Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are a subset of cells within tumors that possess the unique ability to self-renew and give rise to diverse tumor cells. These cells are crucial in driving tumor metastasis, recurrence, and resistance to treatment....
Artificial intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing society and healthcare, offering new possibilities for precision medicine. Immunotherapy in oncology (IO) has similarly transformed cancer treatment through novel mechanisms of therapeutic action, but h...
Macrophages played an important role in the progression and treatment of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). We employed weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) to identify macrophage-related genes (MRGs) and classify patients...
We present a study where predictive mechanistic modeling is combined with deep learning methods to predict individual patient survival probabilities under immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) immunotherapy. This hybrid approach enables prediction based ...
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) stands as one of the most prevalent malignancies. While PD-1 immune checkpoint inhibitors have demonstrated promising therapeutic efficacy in HCC, not all patients exhibit a favorable response to these treatments. Gluta...

BACKGROUND: Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are found in primary and advanced tumours. They are primarily involved in tumour progression through complex mechanisms with other types of cells in the tumour microenvironment. However, essential fibr...
INSTRUCTION: Colorectal cancer (CRC) poses a challenge to public health and is characterized by a high incidence rate. This study explored the relationship between ferroptosis and fatty acid metabolism in the tumor microenvironment (TME) of patients ...
OBJECTIVE: Bladder cancer (BCa) is a highly lethal urological malignancy characterized by its notable histological heterogeneity. Autophagy has swiftly emerged as a diagnostic and prognostic biomarker in diverse cancer types. Nonetheless, the current...
