Abstract
BACKGROUND Familial primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) includes syndromic and non-syndromic disorders. The former are characterized by the occurrence of PHPT in association with extra-parathyroid manifestations and includes multiple endocrine neoplasia (MEN) types 1, 2, and 4 syndromes, and hyperparathyroidism-jaw tumor (HPT-JT). The latter consists of familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia (FHH) types 1, 2 and 3, neonatal severe primary hyperparathyroidism (NSHPT), and familial isolated primary hyperparathyroidism (FIHP). The familial forms of PHPT show different levels of PHPT penetrance, developing earlier and with multiglandular involvement compared to sporadic counterpart. All these diseases exhibit Mendelian inheritance patterns, and for most of them, the genes responsible have been identified. DNA testing for predisposing mutations is helpful in index cases or in individuals with a high suspicion of the disease. Early recognition of hereditary disorders of PHPT is of great importance for the best clinical and surgical approach. Genetic testing is useful in routine clinical practice because it will also involve appropriate screening for extra-parathyroidal manifestations related to the syndrome as well as the identification of asymptomatic carriers of the mutation. PURPOSE The aim of the review is to discuss the current knowledge on the clinical and genetic profile of these disorders along with the importance of genetic testing in clinical practice.

Abstract
CONTEXT Germline CDKN1B variants predispose patients to multiple endocrine neoplasia type 4 (MEN4), a rare MEN1-like syndrome, with <100 reported cases since its discovery in 2006. Although CDKN1B mutations are frequently suggested to explain cases of genetically negative MEN1, the prevalence and phenotype of MEN4 patients is poorly known, and genetic counseling is unclear. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the prevalence of MEN4 in MEN1-suspected patients and characterize the phenotype of MEN4 patients. DESIGN Retrospective observational nationwide study. Narrative review of literature and variant class reassessment. PATIENTS We included all adult patients with class 3/4/5 CDKN1B variants identified by the laboratories from the French Oncogenetic Network on Neuroendocrine Tumors network between 2015 and 2022 through germline genetic testing for MEN1 suspicion. After class reassessment, we compared the phenotype of symptomatic patients with class 4/5 CDKN1B variants (ie, with genetically confirmed MEN4 diagnosis) in our series and in literature with 66 matched MEN1 patients from the UMD-MEN1 database. RESULTS From 5600 MEN1-suspected patients analyzed, 4 with class 4/5 CDKN1B variant were found (0.07%). They presented with multiple duodenal NET, primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) and adrenal nodule, isolated PHPT, PHPT, and pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor. We listed 29 patients with CDKN1B class 4/5 variants from the literature. Compared with matched MEN1 patients, MEN4 patients presented lower NET incidence and older age at PHPT diagnosis. CONCLUSION The prevalence of MEN4 is low. PHPT and pituitary adenoma represent the main associated lesions, NETs are rare. Our results suggest a milder and later phenotype than in MEN1. Our observations will help to improve genetic counseling and management of MEN4 families.

Abstract
Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) includes sporadic PHPT and hereditary PHPT. However, until now, there have been no exact data on the proportion and composition of hereditary PHPT in the Chinese PHPT population. This study aimed to clarify the proportion and composition of hereditary PHPT in patients at a large academic center in Beijing, China, and to analyze genotype-phenotype characteristics. A total of 394 newly diagnosed Han PHPT patients who consented to genetic screening were enrolled. Targeted next-generation sequencing (T-NGS) (including for MEN1, RET, CDKN1B, CaSR, HRPT2/CDC73, GNA11, AP2S1, GCM2), combined with MEN1-multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) and CDC73-MLPA, was used for genetic screening. Diagnosis of hereditary PHPT was based on clinical manifestations, family history, and genetic screening. Thirty-seven pathogenic (P)/likely pathogenic (LP) variants were detected in 41 patients via T-NGS, and three patients carried long-range deletions of MEN1 or CDC73 detected by MLPA, with a variant detection rate of 11.2% (44/394). In total, 30 patients were clinically diagnosed with MEN1. Combined with genetic and clinical screening, the rate of hereditary PHPT in this study was 18.8% (74/394). For purposes of comparison, the rate of unequivocal nonhereditary PHPT was 66.5% (262/394); 14.7% (58/394) did not exhibit the clinical features of hereditary PHPT but carried variants of uncertain clinical significance and so could not be clearly categorized. Both the age at hospital visit (43.6 ± 14.0 versus 53.7 ± 14.9 years) and age at onset (35.4 ± 13.8 versus 50.6 ± 14.8 years) in the hereditary group (n = 74) were significantly lower than those in the nonhereditary group (n = 262). Higher levels of ionized calcium and serum β-CTX were observed in the hereditary group; proportions of parathyroid hyperplasia and multigland involvement were also higher. In addition to multigland disease and positive family history, it is recommended that patients with an age of onset less than 38 should be screened for hereditary forms. © 2023 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR).

Abstract
Between 2% and 10% of patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (pHPT) are diagnosed with hereditary forms of primary hyperparathyroidism (hpHPT). They are more prevalent in younger patients before the age of 40 years, in patients with persistence or recurrence of pHPT and pHPT patients with multi-glandular disease (MGD). The various forms of hpHPT diseases can be classified into four syndromes, i.e., hpHPT associated with diseases of other organ systems, and four diseases that are confined to the parathyroid glands. Approximately 40% of patients with hpHPT suffer from multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN-1) or show germline mutations of the MEN‑1 gene. Currently, germline mutations that lead to a specific diagnosis in patients with hpHPT have currently been described in 13 different genes, which enables a clear diagnosis of the disease; however, a clear genotype-phenotype correlation does not exist, even though the complete loss of a coded protein (e.g. due to frame-shift mutations in the calcium sensing receptor, CASR) often leads to more severe clinical consequences than merely a reduced function of the protein (e.g. due to point mutation). As the various hpHPT diseases require different treatment approaches, which do not correspond to that of sporadic pHPT, a clear definition of the specific form of hpHPT must always be strived for. Therefore, before surgery of a pHPT with clinical, imaging or biochemical suspicion of hpHPT, genetic proof or exclusion of hpHPT is necessary. The differentiated treatment approach for hpHTP can only be defined by taking the clinical and diagnostic results of all the abovenamed findings into account.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) caused by parathyroid tumours is mostly sporadic, with a genetic cause identified in 5-10% of cases. Familial parathyroid tumours can be included in complex syndromes, such as multiple endocrine neoplasia (MEN) type 1, 2A and 4 or hyperparathyroidism-jaw tumour syndrome (HPT-JT). OBJECTIVE Characterisation of the familial parathyroid tumours followed-up at our centre and comparison of the different clinicopathological manifestations between the syndromes. METHODS Retrospective analysis of 48 patients with familial parathyroid tumours harbouring RET (n = 11), CDC73 (n = 20) and MEN1 (n = 17) germline mutations was performed. RESULTS Cases of PHPT in MEN2A syndrome presented with lower serum PTH (sPTH) and serum calcium (sCa) levels at diagnosis (sPTH = 108.0 (IQR 53.3) pg/mL, sCa = 10.6 ± 1.1 mg/dL) than MEN1 (sPTH = 196.9 (IQR 210.5) pg/mL, sCa = 11.7 ± 1.2 mg/dL) (p = 0.01, p = 0.03, respectively) or HPT-JT cases (sPTH = 383.5 (IQR 775.8) pg/mL, sCa = 12.9 ± 1.8 mg/dL) (p = 0.01; p < 0.001, respectively). There was a statistical difference in sCa levels between MEN1 and HPT-JT (p = 0.02), but not between sPTH (p = 0.07). The predominant first manifestation of the syndrome in MEN1 was gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumour (GEP-NET) in 47.1% of the cases, in MEN2A was medullary thyroid cancer (90.9%) and in HPT-JT was PHPT in 85% patients. In MEN1 syndrome, the number of affected parathyroid glands was significantly higher than in MEN2A (p < 0.001) and HPT-JT (p = 0.01). CONCLUSION The first manifestation of the syndrome in MEN1 cases was GEP-NET and not PHPT. Although presenting at similar ages, patients with MEN2A exhibit less severe biochemical and clinical PHPT at diagnosis than the other familial syndromes.

Abstract
Multiple endocrine neoplasia 4 (MEN4) is a rare multiglandular endocrine neoplasia syndrome clinically hallmarked by primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT), pituitary adenoma (PitAd), and neuroendocrine tumors (NET), clinically overlapping MEN1. The underlying mutated gene - CDKN1B, encodes for the cell-cycle regulator p27. Possible genotype-phenotype correlations in MEN4 have not been thoroughly assessed. Prompted by the findings in three Israeli MEN4 kindreds, we performed a literature review on published and unpublished data from previously reported MEN4/CDKN1B cases. Univariate analysis analyzed time-dependent risks for developing PHPT, PitAd, or NET by variant type and position along the gene. Overall, 74 MEN4 cases were analyzed. PHPT risk was 53.4% by age 60 years (mean age at diagnosis age 50.6 ± 13.9 years), risk for PitAd was 23.2% and risk for NET was 16.2% (34.4 ± 21.4 and 52.9 ± 13.9 years, respectively). The frameshift variant p.Q107fs was the most common variant identified (4/41 (9.7%) kindreds). Patients with indels had higher risk for PHPT vs point mutations (log-rank, P = 0.029). Variants in codons 94-96 were associated with higher risk for PHPT (P < 0.001) and PitAd (P = 0.031). To conclude, MEN4 is clinically distinct from MEN1, with lower risk and older age for PHPT diagnosis. We report recurrent CDKN1B frameshift variants and possible genotype-phenotype correlations.

Abstract
Cancer immunotherapy represents a major advance in the cure of cancer following the dramatic advancements in the development and refinement of chemotherapies and radiotherapies. In the recent decades, together with the development of early diagnostic techniques, immunotherapy has significantly contributed to improving the survival of cancer patients. The immune-checkpoint blockade agents have been proven effective in a significant fraction of standard therapy refractory patients. Importantly, recent advances are providing alternative immunotherapeutic tools that could help overcome their limitations. In this mini review, we provide an overview on the main steps of the discovery of classic immune-checkpoint blockade agents and summarise the most recent development of novel immunotherapeutic strategies, such as tumour antigens, bispecific antibodies and TCR-engineered T cells.

Abstract
In the nineteenth century the idea of a correct surgical approach in oncologic surgery moved towards a good lymphadenectomy. In colon cancer the segment is removed with adjacent mesentery, in gastric cancer or pancreatic cancer a good oncologic resection is obtained with adequate lymphadenectomy. Many guidelines propose a minimal lymph node count that the surgeon must obtain. Therefore, it is essential to understand the adequate extent of lymphadenectomy to be performed in cancer surgery. In this review of the current literature, the focus is on "central vascular ligation", understood as radical lymphadenectomy in upper and lower gastrointestinal cancer, the evolution of this approach during the years and the improvement of laparoscopic techniques. For what concerns laparoscopic surgery, the main goal is to minimize post-operative trauma introducing the "less is more" concept whilst preserving attention for oncological outcomes. This review will demonstrate the importance of a scientifically based standardization of oncologic gastrointestinal surgery, especially in relation to the expansion of minimally invasive surgery and underlines the importance to further investigate through new randomized trials the role of extended lymphadenectomy in the new era of a multimodal approach, and most importantly, an era where minimally invasive techniques and the idea of "less is more" are becoming the standard thought for the surgical approach.

Abstract
The mutation of TP53 gene affects half of all human cancers, resulting in impairment of the regulation of several cellular functions, including cell cycle progression and cell death in response to genotoxic stress. In the recent years additional p53-mediated tumour suppression mechanisms have been described, questioning the contribution of its canonical pathway for tumour suppression. These include regulation of alternative cell death modalities (i.e. ferroptosis), cell metabolism and the emerging role in RNA stability. Here we briefly summarize our knowledge on p53 “canonical DNA damage response” and discuss the most relevant recent findings describing potential mechanistic explanation of p53-mediated tumour suppression.

Abstract
Most inactivating mutations in TP53 gene generates neomorphic forms of p53 proteins that experimental evidence and clinical observations suggest to exert gain-of-function effects. While massive effort has been deployed in the dissection of wild type p53 transcriptional programme, p53 mutant pro-tumorigenic gene network is still largely elusive. To help dissecting the molecular basis of p53 mutant GOF, we performed an analysis of a fully annotated genomic and transcriptomic human pancreatic adenocarcinoma to select candidate players of p53 mutant network on the basis their differential expression between p53 mutant and p53 wild-type cohorts and their prognostic value. We identified NUAK2 and RCan2 whose p53 mutant GOF-dependent regulation was further validated in pancreatic cancer cellular model. Our data demonstrated that p53R270H can physically bind RCan2 gene locus in regulatory regions corresponding to the chromatin permissive areas where known binding partners of p53 mutant, such as p63 and Srebp, bind. Overall, starting from clinically relevant data and progressing into experimental validation, our work suggests NUAK2 and RCan2 as novel candidate players of the p53 mutant pro-tumorigenic network whose prognostic and therapeutic interest might attract future studies.

Abstract
The calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) provides the major mechanism for the detection of extracellular calcium concentration in several cell types, via the induction of G-protein-coupled signalling. Accordingly, CaSR plays a pivotal role in calcium homeostasis, and the CaSR gene defects are related to diseases characterized by serum calcium level changes. Activating mutations of the CaSR gene cause enhanced sensitivity to extracellular calcium concentration resulting in autosomal dominant hypocalcemia or Bartter-syndrome type V. Inactivating CaSR gene mutations lead to resistance to extracellular calcium. In these cases, familial hypocalciuric hypercalcaemia (FHH1) or neonatal severe hyperparathyroidism (NSHPT) can develop. FHH2 and FHH3 are associated with mutations of genes of partner proteins of calcium signal transduction. The common polymorphisms of the CaSR gene have been reported not to affect the calcium homeostasis itself; however, they may be associated with the increased risk of malignancies.
