PROGNOSIS STRATIFICATION IN BREAST CANCER AND CHARACTERIZATION OF IMMUNOSUPPRESSIVE MICROENVIRONMENT THROUGH A PYRIMIDINE METABOLISM-RELATED SIGNATURE

Prognosis stratification in breast cancer and characterization of immunosuppressive microenvironment through a pyrimidine metabolism-related signature

Pyrimidine metabolism is a hallmark of cancer and will soon become an essential part of cancer therapy.In the tumor microenvironment, cells reprogram pyrimidine metabolism intrinsically and extracellularly, thereby promoting tumorigenesis.Metabolites in pyrimidine metabolism have a significant impact on promoting cancer advancement and modulating i

Divergent metabolism between Trypanosoma congolense and Trypanosoma brucei results in differential sensitivity to metabolic inhibition.

Animal African Trypanosomiasis (AAT) is a debilitating livestock disease prevalent across sub-Saharan Africa, a main cause of which is the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma congolense.In comparison to the well-studied T.brucei, there is a major paucity of knowledge regarding the biology of T.congolense.Here, we use a combination of omics technologies
