Integrative multi-omics analysis identifies SNRPE as a key driver gene in uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma: promoting tumor progression, and mediating immune evasion. (PubMed, Front Immunol)
Its functional role was validated through in vitro assays and a doxycycline (Dox)-inducible xenograft model...Co-culture experiments confirmed that silencing SNRPE significantly restores T cell-mediated cytotoxicity and reverses the expression of exhaustion markers. By remodeling the global splicing network, SNRPE concurrently sustained intrinsic malignant progression and extrinsic immune suppression in UCEC.

Repurposing atorvastatin for uterine leiomyosarcoma: mevalonate pathway inhibition yields preclinical antitumor efficacy. (PubMed, Acta Pharmacol Sin)
In xenografts, atorvastatin suppressed ULMS tumor growth by ~50% with minimal toxicity, as evidenced by normal serum ALT and creatinine levels and preserved organ histology. These findings identify protein geranylgeranylation as a novel therapeutic vulnerability in ULMS and support statin repurposing as a promising treatment strategy.

Beyond BRCA: Genetic testing for gynaecological cancers in South Africa. (PubMed, S Afr Med J)
A disparity exists not only in genetic testing availability but also clinic attendance between the public and private healthcare systems, which likely limits the ability to diagnose hereditary cancer syndromes associated with gynaecological cancers in public healthcare hospitals.

Intravascular papillary endothelial hyperplasia within the uterine myometrium: a case report and literature review. (PubMed, Front Oncol)
Accurate diagnosis of this rare entity is contingent upon histopathological examination and immunohistochemical analysis. Awareness that IPEH can occur within the uterine corpus may facilitate its inclusion in preoperative differential diagnosis, thereby potentially improving diagnostic precision and alleviating patient anxiety associated with the suspicion of malignancy.

Structural and mechanistic insights into SLC34 phosphate import. (PubMed, bioRxiv)
Integrated with functional analyses, these structures reveal that SLC34 transporters operate through an atypical alternating access cycle defined by coordinated elevator movements of an auxiliary gate domain. This work lays a foundational framework for understanding Pi regulation and opens new avenues for therapeutic strategies targeting disorders linked to phosphate imbalance.

CXorf67 in malignancies: Deciphering epigenetic landscapes and clinical implications for precision oncology. (PubMed, Genes Dis)
However, further research is needed to explore its functions in other cancers and clarify its molecular mechanisms. Our review synthesizes current knowledge on CXorf67's biological significance, particularly in epigenetics and DNA damage, and its implications in oncogenesis.

Case Report: Intramyometrial uterine large-cell neuroendocrine carcinoma mimicking adenomyosis and leiomyomas with rapid fatal relapse. (PubMed, Front Oncol)
Intramyometrial uterine LCNEC can closely resemble adenomyosis and leiomyomas on imaging and may follow an explosive clinical course. This case highlights the diagnostic pitfalls of predominantly intramyometrial disease and underscores the importance of early suspicion, multidisciplinary reassessment when clinical and imaging findings are discordant, prompt platinum-based systemic therapy when feasible, and molecular profiling if the patient is willing to proceed.

Antibody-drug conjugates in gynecologic cancers. (PubMed, Cancer)
Future challenges include the potential for ADCs to serve as maintenance therapies, and the rationale for combination strategies with immunotherapy, antiangiogenics, chemotherapy or targeted agents. As the understanding of ADC pharmacology deepens, these agents will play an increasingly central role in the rapidly evolving treatment paradigm of gynecologic cancers.
