Gastrointestinal (GI) cancers are prevalent globally, with leading incidence and mortality rates among malignant tumors. Despite notable advancements in surgical resection, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy, the overall survival rates remain low. Hence, it is imperative to explore alternative approaches that enhance patient outcomes. Cluster of differentiation 47 (CD47), serving as an early diagnostic marker, is predominantly overexpressed in GI cancers and associated with poor prognosis. Targeting the CD47-signal regulatory protein alpha (SIRPα) signaling pathway may provide a novel strategy for GI cancers treatment. This study summarizes current knowledge of the structure and function of CD47 and SIRPα, their roles in signaling pathways, the prognostic significance of CD47, therapeutic strategies targeting the CD47-SIRPα signaling pathway in GI cancer, and highlights key issues for future investigations.

Chromobox 2 (CBX2), a crucial component of the polycomb repressive complex (PRC), has been implicated in the development of various human cancers. However, its role in the regulation of tumor immunogenicity and immune evasion remains inadequately understood. In this study, we found that ablation of CBX2 led to tumor growth inhibition, activation of the tumor immune microenvironment, and enhanced therapeutic efficacy of anti-PD1 or adoptive T cell therapies by using murine syngeneic tumor models.

The mammalian Hippo kinases, MST1 and MST2, regulate organ development and suppress tumor formation by balancing cell proliferation and death. In macrophages, inflammasomes detect molecular patterns from invading pathogens or damaged host cells and trigger programmed cell death. In addition to lytic pyroptosis, the signatures associated with apoptosis are induced by inflammasome activation, but how the inflammasomes coordinate different cell death processes remains unclear.

Caspase family proteases and Toll/interleukin-1 receptor (TIR)-domain proteins have central roles in innate immunity and regulated cell death in humans. We describe a bacterial immune system comprising both a caspase-like protease and a TIR-domain protein. We found that the TIR protein, once it recognizes phage invasion, produces the previously unknown immune signaling molecule adenosine 5'-diphosphate-cyclo[N7:1'']-ribose (N7-cADPR).

DNA methylation is known to be associated with cataracts. In this study, we used a mouse model and performed DNA methylation and transcriptome sequencing analyses to find epigenetic indicators for age-related cataracts (ARC). Anterior lens capsule membrane tissues from young and aged mice were analyzed by MethylRAD-seq to detect the genome-wide methylation of extracted DNA.
