    Abstract: Ten-eleven translocation (TET) family proteins (TETs), specifically, TET1, TET2 and TET3, can modify DNA by oxidizing 5-methylcytosine (5mC) iteratively to yield 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC), 5-formylcytosine (5fC), and 5-carboxycytosine (5caC), and ... ...

    Abstract Ten-eleven translocation (TET) family proteins (TETs), specifically, TET1, TET2 and TET3, can modify DNA by oxidizing 5-methylcytosine (5mC) iteratively to yield 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC), 5-formylcytosine (5fC), and 5-carboxycytosine (5caC), and then two of these intermediates (5fC and 5caC) can be excised and return to unmethylated cytosines by thymine-DNA glycosylase (TDG)-mediated base excision repair. Because DNA methylation and demethylation play an important role in numerous biological processes, including zygote formation, embryogenesis, spatial learning and immune homeostasis, the regulation of TETs functions is complicated, and dysregulation of their functions is implicated in many diseases such as myeloid malignancies. In addition, recent studies have demonstrated that TET2 is able to catalyze the hydroxymethylation of RNA to perform post-transcriptional regulation. Notably, catalytic-independent functions of TETs in certain biological contexts have been identified, further highlighting their multifunctional roles. Interestingly, by reactivating the expression of selected target genes, accumulated evidences support the potential therapeutic use of TETs-based DNA methylation editing tools in disorders associated with epigenetic silencing. In this review, we summarize recent key findings in TETs functions, activity regulators at various levels, technological advances in the detection of 5hmC, the main TETs oxidative product, and TETs emerging applications in epigenetic editing. Furthermore, we discuss existing challenges and future directions in this field.

    Abstract Epstein-Barr virus-associated smooth muscle tumor (EBV-SMT) is rare in adults. The presence of intratumoral T lymphocytes and primitive rounded cells characterized this neoplasm. We report a 24-year-old Chinese man who developed EBV-SMT in the right adrenal gland with hepatitis B infection and autoimmune hemolytic anemia without a history of HIV infection, primary immune deficiency, organ transplantation, or malignant tumor. This patient had an unknown immunodeficient state. EBV-SMTs are commonly located in the liver, lung, and gastrointestinal tract but rarely in the adrenal gland. We reviewed 10 reported literature on EBV-SMT in the adrenal gland. It is imperative to distinguish EBV-SMT from conventional somatic smooth muscle tumors. The discovery of EBV-SMT forces the clinician to conduct a thorough evaluation of immune function and immune status surveillance, and these patients are vulnerable to subsequent malignant tumors.

    Abstract Acquired cystic disease-associated renal cell carcinoma (ACD-RCC) is an extremely rare kidney tumor seen mainly in patients with end-stage renal disease. Currently, there are few reports on this type of tumor. We describe the case of a 58-year-old man who had been receiving peritoneal dialysis for more than nine years due to chronic renal insufficiency and uremia. One year after undergoing left renal clear cell renal cell carcinoma resection, a space-occupying lesion was found in the right kidney for which he underwent right nephrectomy. The histopathology of this tumor showed solid or tubular cell arrangements, with some areas of cyst formation. Vacuoles of varying sizes were present in the cytoplasm, and varying amounts of calcium oxalate crystals were found in the tumor cells or interstitium. The pathological diagnosis was ACD-RCC. Next-generation sequencing detected mutations in the PTCH1, MTOR, FAT1, SOS1, RECQL4, and CDC73 genes in the right renal tumor. This is a rare case of a patient with ACD-RCC in the right kidney and clear cell renal cell carcinoma in the left kidney. The findings suggest that mutations in PTCH1 associated with ACD-RCC may have acted as oncogenic drivers for the development of ACKD-RCC, together with providing insight into mechanisms underlying ACD-RCC development, as well as diagnostic and treatment options.

    Abstract Length-biased data occur often in many scientific fields, including clinical trials, epidemiology surveys and genome-wide association studies, and many methods have been proposed for their analysis under various situations. In this article, we consider the situation where one faces length-biased and partly interval-censored failure time data under the proportional hazards model, for which it does not seem to exist an established method. For the estimation, we propose an efficient nonparametric maximum likelihood method by incorporating the distribution information of the observed truncation times. For the implementation of the method, a flexible and stable EM algorithm via two-stage data augmentation is developed. By employing the empirical process theory, we establish the asymptotic properties of the resulting estimators. A simulation study conducted to assess the finite-sample performance of the proposed method suggests that it works well and is more efficient than the conditional likelihood approach. An application to an AIDS cohort study is also provided.

    Abstract Objective: To evaluate the prognostic value of CA9 in predicting postoperative recurrence, metastasis or survival in patients with clear cell renal cell carcinoma(ccRCC). Methods: The clinical pathological data from 231 patients with ccRCC who underwent radical or partial nephrectomy from January 1, 2017 to December 31, 2020 in Ruijin Hospital,Shanghai Jiao Tong University were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were followed up for the overall survival (OS),disease-free survival (DFS),and tumor recurrence or metastasis. All pathological sections and wax blocks of tumor issue were collected to make tissue microarray, and immunohistochemical analysis of tissue microarray was performed using CA9 polyclonal antibody. SPSS statistical software multivariate Cox and Kaplan-Meier were used to evaluate the correlation of CA9 expression with clinicopathological features, OS and DFS. Results: Of the 231 ccRCC patients had a median follow-up of 37 months (13-54 months). It revealed that postoperative recurrence and/or metastasis occurred in 38 cases, inclu-ding 6 cases with both recurrence and metastasis, 3 cases with only recurrence, 29 cases with only metastasis, and 8 deaths. Among 231 patients, CA9 positive expression rate was 94%(217/231), of which 153 (66%) were with cells stained with CA9 ≥85% and 78 (34%) were stained with CA9 <85%. Chi-square analysis showed that the expression of CA9 was not only correlated with T stage, ISUP nuclear grade, sarcomatoid or rhabdomyoid differentiation, necrosis, capsule invasion, vascular infiltration, but also correlated with tumor recurrence, metastasis and survival status. There was no relationship between CA9 expression and age, sex and tumor location (P>0.05). Univariate Kaplan-Meier analysis and multiva-riate Cox analysis showed that low expression of CA9 (<85%) was a poor prognostic factor for postoperative overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) in patients with ccRCC, with hazard ratios of 6.211 (P=0.002) and 8.980 (P<0.001), respectively. ...

    Abstract Renal cell carcinoma with fibromyomatous stroma (RCC FMS), defined as an "emerging entity" in the 2016 WHO classification and recommended to be a novel entity by GUPS, is represented by tumor cells with clear to mildly eosinophilic cytoplasm displaying elongated and branching tubules and papillae. A fibromyomatous stroma could be observed in these tumors. These tumors are immunopositive for CK7 and featured by ELOC and/or TSC/mTOR gene mutations. In the 2022 WHO classification, ELOC mutated RCC is classified as a molecularly defined RCCs as an individual renal entity. However, there are limited descriptions of TSC/mTOR alterations in RCC FMS. Herein, we reported a case of 28-year-old woman with RCC FMS with intact ELOC and TSC/mTOR genes but ASXL1 mutation. The tumor cells were positive for mTOR expression. This case may indicate that altered mTOR expression, but not limited to mutated TSC/mTOR gene, that participates in the pathogenesis of RCC FMS.
