Cellular therapies are living drugs whose efficacy depends on persistence and survival. Expansion of therapeutic T cells employs hypermetabolic culture conditions to promote T cell expansion. We show that typical in vitro expansion conditions generate metabolically and functionally impaired T cells more reliant on aerobic glycolysis than those expanding in vivo.

Breast cancer (BC) is the most prevalent cancer in women globally. Anti-cancer advancements have enabled the killing of BC cells through various therapies; however, cancer relapse is still a major limitation and decreases patient survival and quality of life. Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is responsible for tumor relapse in several cancers.

Background: The accurate identification of molecular subtypes in digestive tract cancer (DTC) is crucial for making informed treatment decisions and selecting potential biomarkers. With the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence, various machine learning algorithms have been successfully applied in this field. However, the complexity and high dimensionality of the data features may lead to overlapping and ambiguous subtypes during clustering.

Statins are widely used for treating lipid disorders and cardiovascular diseases. However, the therapeutic efficiency and adverse effects of statins vary among different patients, which numerous clinical and epidemiological studies have attributed to genetic polymorphisms in statin-metabolizing enzymes and transport proteins. The metabolic processes of statins are relatively complex, involving spontaneous or enzyme-catalyzed interconversion between more toxic lactone metabolites and active acid forms in the liver and bloodstream, influenced by multiple factors, including the expression levels of many metabolic enzymes and transporters.

Background: To date, there is no effective cure for the highly malignant brain tumor glioblastoma (GBM). GBM is the most common, aggressive central nervous system tumor (CNS). It commonly originates in glial cells such as microglia, oligodendroglia, astrocytes, or subpopulations of cancer stem cells (CSCs).
