Precision and organization govern the cell cycle, ensuring normal proliferation. However, some cells may undergo abnormal divisions (neosis) or variations of mitotic cycles (endopolyploidy). Consequently, formation polyploid giant cancer (PGCCs), critical for tumor survival, resistance, immortalization, can occur. Newly formed end up accessing numerous multicellular unicellular programs that enable metastasis, drug recurrence, self-renewal diverse clone formation. An integrative literature review was carried out, searching articles in several sites, including: PUBMED, NCBI-PMC, Google Academic, published English, indexed referenced databases without a publication time filter, but prioritizing from last 3 years, to answer following questions: (i) "What is current knowledge about polyploidy tumors?"; (ii) are applications computational studies understanding polyploidy?"; (iii) "How do PGCCs contribute tumorigenesis?"

Abstract Protein structure prediction is a longstanding issue crucial for identifying new drug targets and providing mechanistic understanding of protein functions. To enhance the progress in this field, spectrum computational methodologies has been cultivated. AlphaFold2 exhibited exceptional precision predicting wild-type structures, with performance exceeding that other methods. However, structures missense mutant proteins using remains challenging due to intricate substantial structural alterations caused by minor sequence variations proteins. Molecular dynamics (MD) validated precisely capturing changes amino acid interactions attributed mutations. Therefore, first time, strategy entitled ‘MoDAFold’ was proposed improve accuracy reliability combining MD. Multiple case studies have confirmed superior MoDAFold compared methods, particularly AlphaFold2.

Breast cancer (BC) is characterized by an extensive genotypic and phenotypic heterogeneity. In-depth investigations into the molecular bases of BC phenotypes, carcinogenesis, progression, metastasis are necessary for accurate diagnoses, prognoses, therapy assessments in predictive, precision, personalized oncology. This review discusses both classic as well several novel omics fields that involved or should be used modern investigations, which may integrated a holistic term, onco-breastomics. Rapid recent advances profiling strategies analytical techniques based on high-throughput sequencing mass spectrometry (MS) development have generated large-scale multi-omics datasets, mainly emerging from three ”big omics”, central dogma biology: genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics. Metabolomics-based approaches also reflect dynamic response cells to genetic modifications.

Cancer is the second leading cause of death globally, trailing only heart disease. In United States alone, 1.9 million new cancer cases and 609,360 deaths were recorded for 2022. Unfortunately, success rate drug development remains less than 10%, making disease particularly challenging. This low largely attributed to complex poorly understood nature etiology. Therefore, it critical find alternative approaches understanding biology developing effective treatments. One such approach repurposing, which offers a shorter timeline lower costs while increasing likelihood success. this review, we provide comprehensive analysis computational biology, including systems multi-omics, pathway analysis.
