Lactate and lactylation in gastrointestinal cancer: Current progress and perspectives (Review).

Gastrointestinal (GI) cancers, which have notable incidence and mortality, are impacted by metabolic reprogramming, especially the increased production and accumulation of lactate. Lactylation, a post‑translational modification driven by lactate, is a crucial regulator of gene expression and cellular function in GI cancer. The present review aimed to examine advancements in understanding lactate and lactylation in GI cancer.

Amonafide Induces HUVEC Senescence by Inhibiting Autophagy.

Background: Amonafide (Amo), due to hematotoxicity and digestive tract symptoms, the clinical application of which is limited. Several studies have reported that chemotherapy side effects are closely related to cellular senescence accumulation. Our study aims to examine whether amonafide causes senescence in human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC) lines and investigate its mechanisms associated with senescence.
