Autophagy in brain tumors: molecular mechanisms, challenges, and therapeutic opportunities.
J Transl Med
January 2025
Department of Neurosurgery, Tangdu Hospital, Fourth Military Medical University, No. 569 Xinsi Road, Xi'an, China.
Autophagy is responsible for maintaining cellular balance and ensuring survival. Autophagy plays a crucial role in the development of diseases, particularly human cancers, with actions that can either promote survival or induce cell death. However, brain tumors contribute to high levels of both mortality and morbidity globally, with resistance to treatments being acquired due to genetic mutations and dysregulation of molecular mechanisms, among other factors.

Lipid metabolism in cancer is characterized by dysregulated lipid regulation and utilization, critical for promoting tumor growth, survival, and resistance to therapy. Pancreatic cancer (PC) is a highly aggressive malignancy of the gastrointestinal tract that has a dismal 5-year survival rate of less than 10%. Given the essential function of the pancreas in digestion, cancer progression severely disrupts its function.

Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry, Manipal College of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Manipal Academy of Higher Education, Manipal, 576104, Karnataka, India.
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is one of the most fatal malignancies in the world, accounting for 42% of all deaths due to metastasis. The significant development is hindered by the multi-drug resistance and poor patient compliance. PIK3CA gene mutation is one of the important causes of TNBC, which causes dysregulation of the cell cycle and cell proliferation.

State Key Laboratory of Holistic Integrative Management of Gastrointestinal Cancers, National Clinical Research Center for Digestive Diseases, Xijing Hospital, Fourth Military Medical University, Xi'an, Shaanxi 710032, China. Electronic address:
Colorectal cancer (CRC), the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide, is intricately linked to the dysregulation of the gut microbiota. Manipulating the gut microbiota has emerged as a novel strategy for the prevention and treatment of CRC. Natural products, a pivotal source in new drug discovery, have shown promise in recent research as regulators of the gut microbiota, offering potential applications in the prevention and treatment of CRC.

Department of Epidemiology and Health Statistics, College of Public Health, Zhengzhou University, Zhengzhou, China.
Wide-ranging sophisticated physiological activities of cell membranes are associated with changes in fatty acid structure and composition. The cfa gene is a core regulator of cell membrane fatty acid cyclopropanation reaction. Its encoded cyclopropane fatty acid synthase (CFA synthase) catalyzes the binding of unsaturated fatty acid (UFA) to methylene groups, which undergoes cyclopropanation modification to produce cyclopropane fatty acids (CFAs).
