The effects of long non-coding RNA TDRG1 have been established in several tumors; however, its roles in colorectal cancer (CRC) progression are never been found. Here, we found that TDRG1 level was upregulated in CRC cells compared to that in normal colon epithelial cells. Additionally, TDRG1 level was remarkably upregulated in 3D non-adherent spheres derived from the parental CRC cells. Further in vitro and in vivo revealed that TDRG1 knockdown suppressed the stemness of CRC cells. What's more, combined with bioinformatics analysis, luciferase reporter and RNA pull down experiments showed that TDRG1 could bind to miR-873-5p, downregulated its level and thus increase the expression of PRKAR2. Finally, it was shown that TDRG1 functioned through the miR-873-5p/PRKAR2 axis. This study demonstrated a novel TDRG1/miR-873-5p/PRKAR2 signaling in CRC progression.

This study aimed to investigate the expression, prognostic significance, methylation, and immune invasion levels of secreted frizzled-related proteins (SFRP1-5) in colorectal cancer (CRC). Additionally, the relationship between SFRP1/2 methylation and immune infiltration in CRC was explored. The expression of SFRP1-5 was analyzed using several databases, including GEO, TCGA, TIMER, STRING, and GEPIA.

Aim: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a prevalent malignancy with a high mortality rate. Tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) play a crucial role in the immune response against tumors. Programmed death-1 (PD-1) and programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) are key immune checkpoints regulating T cells in the tumor microenvironment.

This study aims to develop a thermoresponsive biomaterial system of irinotecan (IRT) and curcumin (CUR) nano-transferosomal gel (IRT-CUR-NTG) for targeting colorectal cancer (CRC). The IRT-CUR-NTs were statistically optimized and loaded into poloxamer-based thermosensitive gel. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) of the IRT-CUR-NTs were performed, whereas pH, gelation time, gelation temperature, gel and mucoadhesive strength of the IRT-CUR-NTG were investigated.

Article Synopsis
- Insufficient interferon response in tumor cells limits the effectiveness of immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy, particularly in anti-PD-1 treatment for microsatellite instability (MSI) colorectal cancer (CRC).
- Through screening, the study identified mevalonate kinase (MVK) as a key negative regulator of this interferon response in MSI CRC cells, where its genetic removal led to better immune cell infiltration and tumor growth suppression in mice.
- The research highlighted that lowered MVK expression in human tumor samples associates with improved responses to anti-PD-1 therapy, indicating that targeting MVK could enhance ICB therapy by boosting interferon signaling in MSI CRC patients.
