Protease-activated receptor 1 (PAR1), a thrombin-responsive G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR), is implicated in promoting metastasis in multiple tumor types, including both sarcomas and carcinomas, but the molecular mechanisms responsible remain largely unknown.

DDP (cisplatin), a DNA cross-linking agent, is one of the most common chemotherapeutic drugs that have been widely used in the treatment of sarcomas and germ cell tumors.
While it is accepted that Fascin-1 expression correlates with poor clinical outcome and decreased survival in various carcinomas, its role in sarcoma such as osteosarcoma (OS) remains unknown.
Among these genes, ZAP70, CD3E, CD3G, CD3D, and CD247 were part of the TCR 'signal-triggering module'; (3) High expression of the PIGs involved in the TCR signaling pathway was associated with improved OS in 5 cancer types (breast invasive carcinoma (BRCA), cervical squamous cell carcinoma and endocervical adenocarcinoma (CESC), head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSC), lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), and sarcoma (SARC)), but was associated with decreased OS in brain lower-grade glioma (LGG).

Following identification of an index case with NR4A3-PGR fusion demonstrating monomorphic morphologic features, we interrogated additional uterine tumors demonstrating similar histology and sought to describe the morphologic and immunohistochemical characteristics of PGR-rearranged sarcomas.

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), interleukins (IL), cancer antigen 125 (CA 125), lactate dehydrogenase, gangliosides (LDH) and growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF-15) are the most studied proteins in soft tissue sarcomas, including uterine sarcomas.
In this study, a recurrent STS-specific competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) network including seven recurrence and overall survival (OS)-associated genes (LPP-AS2, MUC1, GAB2, hsa-let-7i-5p, hsa-let-7f-5p, hsa-miR-101-3p and hsa-miR-1226-3p) was established based on the gene expression profiling of 259 primary sarcomas and 3 local recurrence samples from the TCGA database.
The presence of COL1A1-USP6 gene rearrangement in MO/FOPD links these lesions to other USP6-driven tumors and represents a very useful supportive marker, which may help to avoid overdiagnosis of MO/FOPD as a sarcoma.
Cumulative 5-year survival was 57% in patients with low CRP (0 risk factors) versus 43% in high CRP (≥ 1 risk factor, p < 0.0002), 62% versus 50% respectively for epithelial tumors (p < 0.0140), and 51% versus 34% for sarcomas (p < 0.0111).
However, we found that only mutation of Trp53 or Cdkn2a, but not Fbxw7 or Slc9a3 can cooperate with Kras<sup>G12D</sup> to generate primary sarcomas in mice.
Tumor growth delay induced by rapamycin may be associated with the suppression of the cancer stem cell phenotype (Notch1, CD133, and CD90) and promotion of autophagy (mTOR, Beclin1, ULK1, and LC3-II/LC3-I ratio) in the murine S180 sarcoma model.
Gene expression was examined using TCGA data and correlated with clinicopathologic outcome which demonstrated that class III β-tubulin is more highly expressed in more aggressive sarcomas with EP4 being widely expressed in all subtypes of sarcoma.
Identification of high-grade NTRK3-rearranged sarcomas is clinically important, since the development of selective NTRK inhibitors has opened new avenues for targeted therapy.
We have validated and implemented a clinical molecular diagnostic assay, MSK- Fusion Solid, for detection of gene fusions in solid tumors, including sarcomas.
