Drug resistance is a major challenge in cancer therapy, and the expression of efflux pumps such as P-glycoprotein (P-gp, ABCB1) often correlates with poor prognosis in various tumors, including glioblastoma (GB). Considering that different roles for these proteins have been established in the biology of various tumors, this study aimed to investigate the functions of P-gp in GB-derived cells by evaluating its survival, migratory, and apoptosis-regulating capabilities, as well as its potential as a liquid biopsy biomarker. P-gp expression was diminished via siRNA to determine its exact role in GB biology.

Cynanchum wallichii (CW) is a traditional Chinese medicine which is widely used for treating arthrophlogosis, traumatic injury, and other conditions. Herein, we investigate the effects and mechanisms of CW and its bioactive constituent CW1 in reversing docetaxel (DTX) resistance in prostate cancer (PCa) cells. We investigated the reversal effects of CW and its bioactive constituent CW1 on 22Rv1/DTX cells in vitro and in vivo.

Trophoblast cell surface antigen 2 (TROP2) is highly expressed in multiple cancers relative to normal tissues, supporting its role as a target for cancer therapy. OBI-992 is an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) derived from a novel TROP2-targeted antibody linked to the topoisomerase 1 (TOP1) inhibitor exatecan via an enzyme-cleavable hydrophilic linker, with a drug-antibody ratio of 4. This study evaluated and compared the antitumor activity of OBI-992 with that of benchmark TROP2-targeted ADCs datopotamab deruxtecan (Dato-DXd) and sacituzumab govitecan (SG) in cell line-derived xenograft (CDX) and patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models.

Traditional chemotherapy often encounters failure attributed to drug resistance mediated by tumor-repopulating cells (TRCs) and chemotherapy-triggered immune suppression. The effective inhibition of TRCs and the mitigation of drug-induced immune suppression are pivotal for the successful chemotherapy. Here, TRC-derived microparticles (3D-MPs), characterized by excellent tumor-targeting and high TRC uptake properties, are utilized to deliver metformin and the chemotherapeutic drug doxorubicin ((DOX+Met)@3D-MPs).
