To evaluate cellular response to oncostatin M (OSM) in comparison to interleukin (IL)-31, we analyzed monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (MCP-1) as a readout for OSM responses with and without IL-4, IL-13, anti-OSM receptor β monoclonal antibody KPL-716, and anti-IL-31 receptor α antibody in human epidermal keratinocytes and human dermal fibroblasts in vitro. In human epidermal keratinocytes, OSM significantly induced STAT3 or STAT1 phosphorylation and synergized with IL-13 or IL-4 in elevating MCP-1. In human dermal fibroblasts, OSM results were similar, and leukemia inhibitory factor or IL-31 minimally activated STAT3 but not MCP-1. OSM significantly stimulated mRNA for type II IL-4 receptor and type II OSM receptor. KPL-716, not anti-IL-31Rα, significantly attenuated MCP-1 response to OSM and OSM + IL-4 in human epidermal keratinocytes and human dermal fibroblasts. OSM, not leukemia inhibitory factor or IL-31, synergized with IL-4 and IL-13 in human epidermal keratinocytes and human dermal fibroblasts, suggesting therapeutic potential of KPL-716 in inflammatory dermatologic diseases distinct from IL-31 inhibition.

Recurrent missense mutations in the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) have been identified across various human cancers. Among these mutations, the active S310F mutation in the HER2 extracellular domain stands out as not only oncogenic but also confers resistance to pertuzumab, an antibody drug widely used in clinical cancer therapy, by impeding its binding. In this study, we have successfully employed computational-aided rational design to undertake directed evolution of pertuzumab, resulting in the creation of an evolved pertuzumab variant named Ptz-SA.

Based on network pharmacology and molecular docking methods, this study explored its active compounds and confirmed its potential mechanism of action against Hand-foot skin reaction induced by tumor-targeted drugs. Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology Database and Analysis Platform and UniProt Database were used to obtain the active ingredients and target proteins of Spatholobi Caulis. All hand-foot skin reaction (HFSR)-related targets were obtained with the help of the Human Gene Database, Online Mendelian Inheritance in Humans (OMIM), DisGeNET and DrugBank databases.

Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) positive gastric cancer (GC) shows a robust response to the combined therapy based HER2-targeted therapy. The application of these therapies is highly dependent on the evaluation of tumor HER2 status. However, there are many risks and challenges in HER2 assessment in GC.

Osimertinib, a third-generation epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), has revolutionized one of the standard most efficient treatments for EGFR mutation-positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Osimertinib, a third-generation EGFR-TKI, is currently one of most efficient treatments in clinical practice. However, it has a potentially fatal side effect: interstitial lung disease (ILD).

Therapeutic decision-making for older patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive breast cancer highlights the importance of a comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA). This assessment considers the functional status, comorbidities, and relevant conditions of the patient, and allows for an estimation of life expectancy, but it does not facilitate individualized treatment plans. There are also other challenges to consider related to the cardiac toxicity of the treatments and the under-representation of older patients in clinical trials.
