Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors have significantly improved treatment outcomes of homologous recombination (HR) repair-deficient cancers. While the activity of these agents is largely linked to multiple mechanisms underlying the synthetic lethality of PARP inhibition and HR deficiency, emerging data suggest that their efficacy is also tied to their effects on the immune microenvironment and dependent upon cytotoxic T-cell activation. Effects observed in preclinical models are currently being validated in on-treatment biopsy samples procured from patients enrolled in clinical trials. Although this work has stimulated the development of combinations of PARP inhibitors with immunomodulatory agents, results to date have not demonstrated the superiority of combined PARP inhibition and immune checkpoint blockade compared with PARP inhibition alone. These results have stimulated a more comprehensive assessment of the immunosuppressive components of the tumor microenvironment that must be addressed so that the efficacy of PARP inhibitor agents can be maximized.

Bladder cancer ranks as the 9th most common type of cancer worldwide. Approximately 70 % of bladder cancers are diagnosed as non-muscle invasive, and they are treated with transurethral resection followed by intravesical therapy. Doxorubicin is one of the effective cytotoxic drugs used in intravesical and systemic therapy, but its cardiotoxicity and nephrotoxicity limit therapeutic dosages.

Callistephus chinensis Nees is an herbaceous plant in the Asteraceae family that has various traditional effects, especially in preventing liver disease. Callistephus A (CA) is a sesquiterpene compound with a rare 6/7 ring skeleton, which has been isolated only from the Callistephus chinensis Nees, but whether CA protects the liver is unknown. Immunological liver injury (ILI) is a common liver disease mediated by the immune system.

Background: Ovarian cancer (OC), particularly high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC), is the leading cause of mortality from gynecological malignancies worldwide. Despite the initial effectiveness of treatment, acquired resistance to poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors (PARPis) represents a major challenge for the clinical management of HGSOC, highlighting the necessity for the development of novel therapeutic strategies. This study investigated the role of 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase 3 (PFKFB3), a pivotal regulator of glycolysis, in PARPi resistance and explored its potential as a therapeutic target to overcome PARPi resistance.

UVB irradiation induces diverse modalities of regulatory cell death in keratinocytes. Recently, the pattern of coexistence of pyroptosis, apoptosis, and necroptosis has been termed PANoptosis; however, whether PANoptosis occurs in keratinocytes in UVB-induced skin injury remains unclear. We observed that the key molecules of GSDMD-mediated pyroptosis, apoptosis, and necroptosis, which are N-terminal GSDMD, cleaved caspase-3/PARP, and phosphorylated MLKL, respectively, were elevated in keratinocytes of UVB-challenged mice and human skin tissue.
