Exosome-delivered NR2F1-AS1 and NR2F1 drive phenotypic transition from dormancy to proliferation in treatment-resistant prostate cancer via stabilizing hormonal receptors.

Cancer cells acquire the ability to reprogram their phenotype in response to targeted therapies, yet the transition from dormancy to proliferation in drug-resistant cancers remains poorly understood. In prostate cancer, we utilized high-plasticity mouse models and enzalutamide-resistant (ENZ-R) cellular models to elucidate NR2F1 as a key factor in lineage transition and ENZ resistance. Depletion of NR2F1 drives ENZ-R cells into a relative dormancy state, characterized by reduced proliferation and heightened drug resistance, while NR2F1 overexpression yields contrasting outcomes.

Objectives: Recurrent glioma is highly treatment resistant due to its metabolic, cellular, and molecular heterogeneity and invasiveness. Tumor monitoring by conventional MRI has shortcomings to assess these key glioma characteristics. Recent studies introduced chemical exchange saturation transfer for metabolic imaging in oncology and assessed its diagnostic value for newly diagnosed glioma.

The patient was diagnosed with amyopathic dermatomyositis complicated with interstitial pneumonia (IP) at age 35. She had been treated with prednisolone and maintained on tacrolimus (TAC) + azathioprine (AZA). Eight years later, she experienced epigastric pain, and esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) led to a diagnosis of duodenal ulcer.
