- Pectus excavatum (PE) is the most common congenital chest wall deformity, affecting approximately 1 in 400 live births. Although familial clustering supports a genetic contribution, the molecular basis of PE remains poorly defined. This systematic review synthesizes existing evidence on genetic variants associated with PE to guide future genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses. - Source: PubMed

Ranjan RedoyImtiaz NafizWaterhouse BenjaminPaul IanBrunswicker AnnemarieDunning Joel - Many cancers upregulate the expression of sialic acid-containing glycans. These oligosaccharides engage inhibitory sialic acid-binding immunoglobulin-like lectin (Siglec) receptors on immune cells, allowing cancer cells to evade immune surveillance. The genetic mechanisms underlying this process remain poorly defined. In this study, we performed gain-of-function CRISPR activation (CRISPRa) screens to define genetic pathways that regulate expression of Siglec-binding glycans. We show that Siglec ligand expression is controlled through genetic competition between genes that catalyze α2-3 sialylation and GlcNAcylation of galactose residues. Cancer glycome remodeling is also aided by the overexpression of "professional ligands" that facilitate Siglec-glycan binding. Notably, we also find that expression of the CD24 gene is genetically dispensable for cell surface binding of the inhibitory receptor Siglec-10. Finally, we identify the sulfotransferase enzyme GAL3ST4 as a potential driver of immune evasion in glioma cells. Our study provides a unique genomic atlas of cancer-associated glycosylation and identifies immediately actionable targets for cancer immunotherapy. - Source: PubMed

In the glioma microenvironment, these two types of macrophages tend to adopt a specialized activation state known as type 2 or M2 macrophages and play crucial roles in the progression of glioma. - Source: PubMed
