Abstract Patients with advanced breast cancer (BC) often experience bone metastasis, leading to severe skeletal complications and a significant decline in prognosis. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying BC bone metastasis remain largely unexplored. This study identified the long non-coding RNA LCAL4 as specifically upregulated in bone-metastatic BC, where it serves as an independent predictor of poor survival.

Identifying the target of natural killer (NK) cells in colorectal cancer (CRC) is critical for optimising the clinical use of NK cell-mediated immunotherapy. Mismatch repair deficiency (dMMR) is associated with high immune cell infiltration and MHC Class I defects. Whether dMMR CRC responses to NK cell therapy remains unclear. MLH1, DR4, and DR5 knockout cell lines were established using CRISPR-Cas9 system.
