Bispecific Dual-Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor Associated Cutaneous Toxicity: A Report of Lorigerlimab Adverse Skin Reaction in Two Cancer Patients. (PubMed, J Cutan Pathol)
The eruption was refractory to treatment, despite the patient withholding lorigerlimab, leading to complete discontinuation of lorigerlimab. This report highlights the importance of histopathologic evaluation in guiding treatment decisions for lorigerlimab-associated irAEs and underscores the need for further research into its dermatologic irAEs.

PSMA RNA aptamer A10-3.2 conjugated with indocyanine green for rapid intraoperative imaging and effective mild photothermal therapy of prostate cancer. (PubMed, Int J Biol Macromol)
It also reduced SLC7A11 expression, suggesting a disruption of redox homeostasis in cancer cells. Taken together, this integrated strategy combining molecular targeting, real-time imaging, and localized mPTT, with optional gene regulation, offers a promising theranostic approach for precision management of PCa.

Targeting glycolysis in prostate cancer: Molecular mechanisms and therapeutic advances. (PubMed, Biochim Biophys Acta Rev Cancer)
Targeting glycolysis presents novel opportunities to address existing limitations in PCa management. This review discusses the advances, challenges, and future research directions in glycolysis-focused PCa studies, providing a theoretical foundation for the development of precise metabolic interventions.

Cytotoxic and anti-metastatic effects of Pllans-II from Porthidium lansbergii lansbergii venom against prostate cancer cells. (PubMed, Biochem Biophys Res Commun)
In contrast, it spared non-tumorigenic prostate epithelial cells (PCS-440-010), unlike Docetaxel...Western blot analysis revealed no change in the caspase-8 expression, but a marked upregulation of Beclin-1, probably related to autophagy cell death pathways. These findings highlight the selective cytotoxicity and anti-metastatic potential of Pllans-II, positioning it as a promising prototype for the development of novel therapeutic strategies against prostate cancer.

Incremental Predictive Value of the Oncotype Genomic Prostate Score for Adverse Pathology in Active Surveillance Candidates. (PubMed, Prostate)
In this RP cohort, GPS modestly improved prediction of adverse pathology beyond PSA density and MRI, with clinical utility primarily in favorable intermediate-risk patients, where treatment decisions between active surveillance and definitive therapy are uncertain. These findings suggest selective, risk-adapted application of GPS to guide treatment decision-making. Validation in prospective, diverse cohorts is warranted.

Prognostic significance of neuroendocrine differentiation and PD-L1 expression in treatment-naïve prostate cancer. (PubMed, BMC Urol)
In treatment-naïve PaNED, higher SIS was correlated with lower PD-L1 CPS values, and strong synaptophysin expression was associated with poorer survival. Assessment of SIS in morphologically suspected neuroendocrine areas may provide additional prognostic information and help predict the PD-L1 response. Larger studies are required to validate these findings.
