PD-L1 expression was classified into three groups: PD-L1-negative, PD-L1-low, and PD-L1-high.

Significant differences in mutation frequencies were observed in PD-L1 expression subgroups for the EGFR, TP53, LRP1B, KRAS, SPTA1, and PTPRD genes. Notably, TP53 and KRAS alterations were significantly enriched in PD-L1-high subgroup, while EGFR mutations were associated with PD-L1 negativity.

This review aims to unravel microbiome impact on Tregs in bowel inflammation and harnessing such interaction to combat colitis as a separate disease or a consequence of immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy of cancer. Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) are microbial-derived metabolites associated positively with Treg generation and maintenance and being effective for hampering bowel inflammation. Treg induction shapes gut microbiota profile and support microorganism colonization in their niche and protect the host from inflammation, while suppression of Treg differentiation and activity directs microbiota-induced Th17 expansion and inducing inflammation. Thus, balancing Treg representation with Th17 cells and Treg reprogramming through manipulation of gut microbiota can offer therapy. Microbiota epithelial attachment/detachment and interaction with antigen-presenting cells (APCs) are important for the final fate of T cell signature. Fecal microbial transplantation (FMT) is a strategy for promoting normobiosis and represents a navel approach to targeting colitis. FMT with appropriate microbiota from healthy donors can reinforce microbial diversity, density and persistence to enrich their environment with transforming growth factor (TGF)-β, induce IL-10 producing APCs and reinforce gut barrier, with all these being effective for recovering Tregs, restoring intestinal homeostasis and hampering colitis.

Conventional diagnostic modalities demonstrate limited sensitivity and specificity for early-stage disease identification. Recent research has begun to explore causal inference methodologies as complementary approaches that may enhance diagnostic precision and prognostic capability. This systematic review evaluates the current state and future prospects of causal inference methodologies in enhancing ovarian cancer diagnosis and prognosis. We performed a comprehensive systematic review focusing on causal inference methodologies applied to ovarian cancer research. The analysis encompassed biomarker identification, pathogenic mechanism elucidation, and multimodal data integration. Additionally, we analyzed the synergistic combination of causal inference with machine learning approaches across genomic, transcriptomic, proteomic, and imaging datasets. Causal inference methods have shown effectiveness in identifying crucial biomarkers and revealing underlying pathogenic mechanisms of ovarian cancer. The integration of machine learning with causal inference has enhanced model interpretability, clinical applicability, and diagnostic-prognostic accuracy. These approaches have achieved improved predictions of disease progression and optimization of treatment strategies by leveraging clinical, genetic, and imaging data. Causal inference shows considerable potential in advancing precision medicine for ovarian cancer, offering robust frameworks for addressing confounding factors and establishing causal relationships.
