Sorafenib is a multikinase inhibitor FDA-approved for the treatment of advanced renal cell and hepatocellular carcinoma. Dermatologic side effects include hand-foot skin reaction, facial and scalp erythema and desquamation, splinter subungual hemorrhages, alopecia, pruritus, xerosis, keratoacanthomas, and squamous cell carcinomas. We report sudden eruption of melanocytic nevi diffusely in a patient receiving sorafenib.

Cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) has been proposed as an emerging onco-therapeutics that can specifically kill cancer cells without harming healthy cells. Here we explore its potency in triggering ferroptosis in transformed cells using triple negative breast cancer as the disease model. Through the whole transcriptome sequencing, mass spectrometry analysis, point mutation, and a series of and molecular assays, we identified two signaling axes centered at EGFR(Y1068), i.

Liver cancer treatment encounters considerable therapeutic challenges, especially because hypoxic microenvironments markedly reduce sensitivity to chemotherapeutic agents. TFAM (mitochondrial transcription factor A) plays a crucial role in maintaining mitochondrial function. Oroxylin A (OA), a flavonoid with potential therapeutic properties, demonstrated prospects in cancer treatment.

The increasing incidence and mortality rates of liver cancer have heightened the demand for the development of effective anticancer drugs with minimal side effects. In this study, the roles of exosomes derived from liver cancer stem cells (LCSCs) with PRELI (Protein of Relevant Evolutionary and Lymphoid Interest) modulation and their miRNAs were investigated to explore their therapeutic properties for liver cancer. Various techniques, such as miRNA profiling, microRNA transfection, overexpression, flow cytometry, Western blotting, and immunocytochemistry, were used to evaluate the effects of exosomes under PRELI up- and downregulation.

Donafenib is an improved version of sorafenib in which deuterium is substituted into the drug's chemical structure, enhancing its stability and antitumor activity. Donafenib exhibits enhanced antitumor activity and better tolerance than sorafenib in preclinical and clinical studies. However, the specific mechanism of its effect on hepatocellular carcinoma has not been reported.

Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is the most common type of thyroid cancer, and patients with the BRAF mutation often exhibit aggressive tumor behavior. Here, we identified Arylsulfatase I (ARSI) as a gene whose expression was significantly upregulated in BRAF PTC and was associated with poor prognosis. High ARSI expression correlated with advanced disease stage, BRAF mutation, and worse overall survival in PTC patients.
