Messenger RNA(mRNA) CCT6A can encode chaperone proteins and plays an important role in malignant tumors such as colorectal cancer, lung cancer and breast cancer. CCT6A is highly expressed in malignant tumors, which can be used as a biomarker to assess patients' prognosis, and promote malignant biological behaviors such as tumor proliferation and metastasis by regulating transforming growth factor β signals, cell cycles, and other pathways. CCT6A can also modulate immune cell infiltration in the tumor microenvironment and may be a potential target for tumor immunotherapy. The paper reviews the expression and function of CCT6A in malignancies.

Laparoscopic right hemicolectomy is currently the most commonly used surgical procedure for right-sided colon cancer. Although this procedure is maturing in terms of key tech-niques such as the extent of surgical resection, the extent of lymph node dissection, and the recons-truction of digestive tract, it still lacks a standardized surgical procedure and quality control system. In the pre-preparation phase of the COLOR Ⅳ study (an international, multicenter, randomized contro-lled trail comparing the efficacy of intracorporeal anastomosis versus extracorporeal anasto-mosis in laparoscopic right hemicolectomy for right-sided colon cancer), the research team of the authors formulates a standardized procedure for laparoscopic right hemicolectomy based on the Delphi survey, and develops a competency assessment tool for surgical ability and quality. Attempts are being made to automate the evaluation of surgical techniques using artificial intelligence. It is hoped that the above work will help colorectal surgeons to standardize surgical operations and reduce complications, provide support for the homogenization of multicenter clinical studies, and promote the implementation of structured training for this procedure.
