In this study, the Clinical and RNA sequencing data we performed a comprehensive analysis of PARPs modification patterns, exploring their associations with TME cell infiltration were acquired from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas (CGGA) database.

TUBB2B regulates epithelial-mesenchymal transition via interaction with Vimentin to promote glioma migration and invasion.

Background: Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) plays a crucial role in the migration and invasion capabilities of glioblastoma (GBM) cells. Several studies have established tubulin as a significant regulator of the EMT process. Tubulin beta 2B class IIb (TUBB2B), a critical component of microtubules, has been linked to the prognosis of various tumors.

Multifunctional Prussian blue nanozymes alleviate atherosclerosis through inhibiting the inflammation feedback loop.

Atherosclerosis (AS) is a lipid-driven chronic inflammatory disease characterized by the presence of numerous proinflammatory cytokines, massive reactive oxygen species (ROS) and excess lipids, which together result in an overall inflammatory positive feedback loop in the plaque focus. Due to its excellent enzyme-like activity in ROS scavenging and inflammation inhibition, as well as its photothermal effects in the lipid efflux ability of foam cells, Prussian blue (PB) has greater potential in preventing inflammatory factor loops for enhanced treatment of AS than traditional nanozymes. In this study, the multifunctional nanozyme BSA@PB/Cur was synthesized by self-assembly of bovine serum albumin (BSA) with PB and further encapsulation of the anti-inflammatory drug curcumin (Cur).

RREB1-mediated SUMOylation enhancement promotes chemoresistance partially by transcriptionally upregulating in colorectal cancer.

Chemoresistance is a main cause of chemotherapy failure and tumor recurrence. The effects of global protein SUMOylation on chemoresistance in colorectal cancer (CRC) remains to be investigated. Herein, we have proposed that the elevated SUMO2/3-modified proteins confer 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) chemoresistance acquisition in CRC.

Hyaluronic acid-modified liposomes Potentiated anti-hepatocellular carcinoma of icaritin.

Icaritin (ICT), a promising anti-hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) prenylated flavonoid, is hindered from being applied due to its low water solubility and high lipophilicity in poorly differentiated HCC which is associated with upregulation of CD44 isoforms. Thus, hyaluronic acid (HA), a natural polysaccharide with high binding ability to CD44 receptors, was used to formulate a modified liposome as a novel targeted ICT-delivery system for HCC treatment. The ICT-Liposomes (Lip-ICT) with and without HA were prepared by a combined method of thin-film dispersion and post-insertion.
