Double-strand breaks (DSBs) can initiate mitotic catastrophe, a complex oncosuppressive phenomenon characterized by cell death during or after cell division. Here we unveil how cell cycle-regulated DSB repair guides disparate cell death outcomes through single-cell analysis of extended live imaging. Following DSB induction in S or G2, passage of unresolved homologous recombination intermediates into mitosis promotes non-immunogenic intrinsic apoptosis in the immediate attempt at cell division.

Hepatocellular carcinoma is among the most frequent forms of primary liver cancer and develops within a context of chronic inflammation, frequently associated with a multitude of risk factors, including viral infections, metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease, metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis and liver fibrosis. The tumor microenvironment is crucial for the progression of HCC, as immune cells, tumor-associated fibroblasts and hepatic stellate cells interact to promote chronic inflammation and tumor spread. Inflammasomes, the multiprotein complexes that launch the innate immune response, emerge as important mediators in the pathogenesis of HCC.

Purpose: Terminal nucleotidyltransferase 5A (TENT5A), recently predicted as a non-canonical poly(A) polymerase, is critically involved in several human disorders including retinitis pigmentosa, cancer and obesity. However, the exact biological role of TENT5A in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has not been elucidated.
Methods: The transcription level of TENT5A and clinical correlation were analyzed using the LIRI-JP cohort, the TCGA-LIHC cohort, and clinical tissue samples of HCC patients in our laboratory.

Background: MicroRNAs (miRNAs), which are key players in cancer cell resistance to chemotherapy, notably target genes associated with drug resistance. While miRNA-128-3p is recognized for its involvement in various cancers, its specific role in tumorigenesis and cisplatin (CIS) resistance in tongue cancer remains unclear. Therefore, in the present study, we endeavoured to elucidate the significance of miR-128-3p in tongue squamous cell carcinoma (TSCC), shedding light on its intricate functions and underlying mechanisms.

In recent years, the restoration of p53 physiological functions has become an attractive therapeutic approach to develop novel and efficacious cancer therapies. Among other mechanisms, the oncosuppressor protein p53 is functionally regulated by MDM2 through its E3 ligase function. MDM2 promotes p53 ubiquitination and degradation following homodimerization or heterodimerization with MDM4.
