CDK9 targeting PROTAC L055 inhibits ERα-positive breast cancer.

Breast cancer is one of the most prevalent malignancies affecting women worldwide, underscoring the urgent need for more effective and specific treatments. Proteolysis-targeting chimeras (PROTACs) have emerged as a promising strategy to develop new lead compounds by selectively targeting oncoproteins for degradation. In this study, we designed, synthesized and evaluated a CRBN-based PROTAC, L055, which targets CDK9.

Subclone from CT26 resistant to anti-PD-1 therapy associated with increased expression of genes related to glucocorticoids.

Background: Although the use of anti-PD-1 antibodies has fundamentally changed traditional cancer treatment, most patients are resistant to anti-PD-1 treatment. Glucocorticoids (GCs) play an important role in tumorigenesis and tumor progression, but the role of endogenous GCs in resistance to anti-PD-1 antibody therapy remains unclear.

Methods: Single cell-derived cell lines (SCDCLs) were generated from a colorectal cancer cell line (CT26) using limiting dilution.

Targeting PAX8 sensitizes ovarian cancer cells to ferroptosis by inhibiting glutathione synthesis.

Ovarian cancer is a malignant tumor originating from the ovary, characterized by its high mortality rate and propensity for recurrence. In some patients, especially those with recurrent cancer, conventional treatments such as surgical resection or standard chemotherapy yield suboptimal results. Consequently, there is an urgent need for novel anti-cancer therapeutic strategies.

An oncogenic role of lncRNA SNHG1 promotes ATG7 expression and autophagy involving tumor progression and sunitinib resistance of Renal Cell Carcinoma.

Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a malignant tumor with high incidence in adult kidney. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have recently been recognized as important regulators in the development of RCC. However, whether lncRNA SNHG1 is associated with RCC progression remains to be elucidated.

Exosomal miR-1228-5p down-regulates DUSP22 to promotes cell proliferation and migration in small cell lung cancer.

Background: Exosomes play a crucial role in promoting tumor progression, dissemination, and resistance to treatment. These extracellular vesicles hold promise as valuable indicators for cancer detection. Our investigation focuses on exploring the significance and clinical relevance of exosomal miRNAs in small cell lung cancer (SCLC).

Discovery of a Novel and Potent LCK Inhibitor for Leukemia Treatment via Deep Learning and Molecular Docking.

The lymphocyte-specific protein tyrosine kinase (LCK) plays a crucial role in both T-cell development and activation. Dysregulation of LCK signaling has been demonstrated to drive the oncogenesis of T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL), thus providing a therapeutic target for leukemia treatment. In this study, we introduced a sophisticated virtual screening strategy combined with biological evaluations to discover potent LCK inhibitors.

Crafting Docetaxel-Loaded Albumin Nanoparticles Through a Novel Thermal-Driven Self-Assembly/Microfluidic Combination Technology: Formulation, Process Optimization, Stability, and Bioavailability.

Background: The commercial docetaxel (DTX) formulation causes severe side effects due to polysorbate 80 and ethanol. Novel surfactant-free nanoparticle (NP) systems are needed to improve bioavailability and reduce side effects. However, controlling the particle size and stability of NPs and improving the batch-to-batch variation are the major challenges.

Identification of potential immune-related mechanisms related to the development of multiple myeloma.

Background: Although significant advances have been made in the treatment of multiple myeloma (MM), leading to unprecedented response and survival rates among patients, the majority eventually relapse, and a cure remains elusive. This situation is closely related to an incomplete understanding of the immune microenvironment, especially monocytes/macrophages in patients with treatment-naïve MM. The aim of this study was to provide insight into the immune microenvironment, especially monocytes/macrophages, in patients with treatment-naïve MM.

Lymph node metastasis burden identifies head and neck squamous cell carcinoma patients benefiting from adjuvant chemoradiation: A propensity score-matching.

Introduction: To examine the influence of adjuvant chemoradiation therapy (CRT) on survival, stratified by varying numbers and level involved of metastatic lymph nodes in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC).

Methods: Patients who underwent surgery for metastatic, negative margin HNSCC without extranodal extension were retrospectively enrolled and divided into two groups based on adjuvant therapy received: radiotherapy (RT) and CRT. The impact of RT versus CRT, stratified by the number of positive lymph nodes and the level involved, on Disease-Free Survival (DFS) and Overall Survival (OS) was analyzed.

Evaluation of an E6/E7 PCR-capillary electrophoresis fragment analysis in the genotyping of human papillomavirus in archival FFPE samples of oropharyngeal cancer.

Accumulating evidence has demonstrated that high-risk human papillomaviruses (HR-HPVs) are involved in the etiology of a subset of oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC). In this regard, the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has recommended direct molecular HPV testing. So far, there is no agreement on the most appropriate method for HPV detection on OPSCC formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) materials.

Senaparib as first-line maintenance therapy in advanced ovarian cancer: a randomized phase 3 trial.

Poly(adenosine diphosphate-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors as maintenance therapy after first-line chemotherapy have improved progression-free survival in women with advanced ovarian cancer; however, not all PARP inhibitors can provide benefit for a biomarker-unselected population. Senaparib is a PARP inhibitor that demonstrated antitumor activity in patients with solid tumors, including ovarian cancer, in phase 1 studies. The multicenter, double-blind, phase 3 trial FLAMES randomized (2:1) 404 females with advanced ovarian cancer (International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics stage III-IV) and response to first-line platinum-based chemotherapy to senaparib 100 mg (n = 271) or placebo (n = 133) orally once daily for up to 2 years.
