  • * Research involving cytological experiments and bioinformatics revealed a poor prognosis for GC patients with EGFR overexpression, which also affects redox metabolism, increasing GSH levels and contributing to DDP resistance.
  • * A specific group of miRNAs (miR-135b, miR-106a, miR-29a, miR-23a, and miR-15a) was found to be upregulated in these

Article Abstract

Chemoresistance is a considerable challenge for gastric cancer (GC), and the combination of cisplatin (DDP) and anti-EGFR therapy failed to show remarkable benefit. So other targets in EGFR-overexpressed and DDP-resistant GC need to be explored. Both cytological experiments and database bioinformatics analysis were applied in this study. It was confirmed that the prognosis of GC patients with EGFR oe was poor. EGFR regulated intracellular redox metabolism, enhanced GSH content and led to DDP resistance. A subset of miRNAs including miR-135b, miR-106a, miR-29a, miR-23a and miR-15a was upregulated in EGFR-overexpressed and DDP-resistant GC cells. Furthermore, EGFR inhibited CYBRD1 via enhancing the miRNA subset and scavenged the redundant ROS to cause DDP resistance. Therefore, to inhibit the miRNA subset at the same time of anti-EGFR therapy might reverse DDP resistance, serving as a potential novel drug for the future treatment of EGFR-overexpressed and DDP-resistant GC.

Background: Cisplatin (DDP) resistance has long posed a challenge in the clinical treatment of lung cancer (LC). Insulin-like growth factor 2 binding protein 2 (IGF2BP2) has been identified as an oncogenic factor in LC, whereas its specific role in DDP resistance in LC remains unclear.

Results: In this study, we investigated the role of IGF2BP2 on DDP resistance in DDP-resistant A549 cells (A549/DDP) in vitro and in a DDP-resistant lung tumor-bearing mouse model in vivo.

Background: Cisplatin (DDP) is one of the most effective anticancer drugs, commonly used to treat advanced ovarian cancer (OC). However, DDP has significant limitations of platinum-based drugs, including chemical resistance and high-dose toxic side effects. Traditional Chinese medicines (TCMs) often presented in the form of formula, in which the herb pair was the basic unit.

Objective: Cisplatin is the main chemotherapy drug for advanced ovarian cancer, but drug resistance often occurs. The aim of this study is to explore the molecular mechanism by which Guizhi Fuling capsule inhibits cisplatin resistance in ovarian cancer.

Methods: First, differences in cisplatin resistance, PA2G4 gene expression, migration, and invasion in A2780 cells and A2780/DDP cells were analyzed by qRT-PCR, scratch assay, transwell, immunofluorescence, and western blotting.

Background: PRAME (eferentially expressed ntigen in lanoma) is a cancer-testis antigen expressed in several tumor indications, representing an attractive anticancer target. However, its intracellular location limits targeting by traditional methods. PRAME peptides are presented on the surface of tumor cells by human leukocyte antigen (HLA) molecules, indicating that a T cell receptor (TCR)-based strategy that redirects T cells to kill PRAME tumors could be a novel immunotherapeutic option.
