In a previous study, we constructed a MHSP65-TCL anti-lung cancer vaccine with Lewis lung carcinoma TCL plus MHSP65, and illustrated its anti-lung cancer effect through specific and nonspecific anti-tumor immunity. However, TCL contains some immunoinhibit components such as FasL. If this component can be eliminated from TCL, the anti-tumor immunity of MHSP65-TCL constructed with TCL should be improved. In the present study, we knocked down FasL from Lewis lung carcinoma cells and prepared MHSP65-(FasL-/TCL) with this cell line's TCL. After further investigation, MHSP65-(FasL-/TCL) exhibited a better ability to reduce splenocytes apoptosis, promote its activation and secretion of secretingTNF-β, IL-2 compared with MHSP65-(FasL+/TCL). Accordingly, specific and nonspecific antitumor immunity induced by MHSP65-(FasL-/TCL) is stronger than that of MHSP65-(FasL+/TCL). In vivo, MHSP65-(FasL-/TCL) immunization can prolong survival of Lewis lung carcinoma bearing mice. Thus, we report that the anti-lung cancer effect of MHSP65-TCL can be improved by removal of FasL from the TCL. It provides a new route to construct MHSP65-TCL and other antitumor vaccines based on TCL.

Microbial exopolysaccharides (EPSs) possess valuable biological functions and fascinating physicochemical properties. On the other hand, lung cancer is the primary contributor to global cancer-related deaths. However, health and safety concerns have prevented the identification and approval of any medications, including chemotherapeutic agents, for lung cancer treatment to date.

Article Synopsis
  • Researchers developed coamorphous systems (CAM) using lumefantrine (LMF) and alpha-ketoglutaric acid (KGA) to improve LMF's solubility and bioavailability through three distinct methods: liquid-assisted grinding, solvent evaporation, and quench-cooling.
  • Testing via PXRD, DSC, and other techniques confirmed the successful amorphization and intermolecular interactions in these CAMs, along with simulations showing diverse molecular environments.
  • The new CAMs significantly enhanced solubility (up to 14.73x), dissolution rates (up to 2.63x), and pharmacokinetics in living organisms (up to 10.86x), while also demonstrating anti-cancer

Article Synopsis
  • Researchers created four new copper(II) hydrazone complexes to assess their potential in treating lung cancer.
  • The MTT assays indicated that these complexes, especially complex 3, were more effective against cancer cells than the common drug cisplatin, showing selective toxicity towards A549 lung cancer cells.
  • Complex 3 not only demonstrated low toxicity in normal cells but also effectively killed tumor cells through multiple anticancer pathways, including a process called cuproptosis, confirming its potential for lung cancer treatment in experiments with mice.
