As a novel form of nonapoptotic cell death, ferroptosis is developing into a promising therapeutic target of dedifferentiating and therapy-refractory cancers. However, its application in pancreatic cancer is still unknown. In the preliminary research, we found that F-box and WD repeat domain-containing 7 (FBW7) inhibited the migration and proliferation of pancreatic cancer cells through its substrate c-Myc.

Platinum chemotherapy is part of every second anticancer treatment regimen. However, its application is limited by severe side effects and drug resistance. The combination of platinum-based chemotherapeutics with EGFR inhibitors has shown remarkable synergism in clinical treatment.

: Pancreatic Ductal Adeno-Carcinoma (PDAC) is a highly aggressive cancer, with limited treatment options. Disruption of the circadian clock, which regulates key cellular processes, has been implicated in PDAC initiation and progression. Hence, targeting circadian clock components may offer new therapeutic opportunities for the disease.

Cancer stem cells (CSCs) play a key role in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) chemoresistance and metastasis. In this study, we used two NSCLC cell lines to investigate the regulating effect of hypoxia in the induction and maintenance of CSC traits. Our study demonstrated hypoxia-induced stemness and chemoresistance at levels comparable to those in typical CSC sphere culture.

Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are crucial for the detection of infections and activation of downstream signaling pathways that lead to the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and interferons. Because of their strong immunostimulatory activity, TLRs are thought to be a "double-edged sword" for systemic treatment, even in the cancer field. To solve this, we have developed dextran-based TAM targeting activator conjugate (D-TAC) technology which successfully uses tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) to deliver the TLR7 agonist DSP-0509.
