Dual-Inhibition of NAMPT and PAK4 Induces Anti-Tumor Effects in 3D-Spheroids Model of Platinum-Resistant Ovarian Cancer

The Antitumor Effect of Dual Inhibition of NAMPT and PAK4 in a 3D Spheroid Model of Platinum-Resistant Ovarian Cancer Platinum-resistant ovarian cancer is a malignant gynecological tumor that is difficult to treat and has a short patient survival period. In recent years, researchers have sought new treatment strategies, targeting cancer stem cells ...

Enhanced Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition Signatures Are Linked with Adverse Tumor Microenvironment, Angiogenesis, and Worse Survival in Gastric Cancer

Enhanced EMT Characteristics Associated with Unfavorable Tumor Microenvironment, Angiogenesis, and Poorer Prognosis in Gastric Cancer Academic Background Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition (EMT) is an extremely important mechanism that promotes the metastasis of cancer cells. However, despite its apparent importance, the clinical significance of EMT...

LOXL1-AS1 Inhibits JAK2 Ubiquitination and Promotes Cholangiocarcinoma Progression through JAK2/STAT3 Signaling

LOXL1-AS1 Promotes Cholangiocarcinoma Progression by Regulating the JAK2/STAT3 Signaling Pathway Academic Background Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is a malignant tumor originating from biliary epithelium, presenting significant medical challenges. Its incidence shows geographical variation, being particularly high in Asia and South America. The occurren...

Single-cell atlas reveals the immunosuppressive microenvironment and Treg cells landscapes in recurrent glioblastoma

Single-Cell Atlas Reveals Immunosuppressive Microenvironment and Treg Cell Distribution in Recurrent Glioblastoma Glioblastoma is the most aggressive brain tumor, with a very high recurrence rate and poor prognosis. Although many studies have explored the tumor microenvironment of this disease, the understanding of the immune microenvironment in re...

The Role of SDCBP in Immunotherapy of Colorectal Cancer

Role of Syndecan Binding Protein (SDCBP) in Regulating Tumor Microenvironment, Tumor Progression, and Anti-PD1 Efficacy in Colorectal Cancer Background In recent years, immunotherapy has brought revolutionary advancements in cancer treatment. However, for colorectal cancer (CRC), anti-programmed cell death 1 (APD1) therapy shows relatively limited ...

Romidepsin Exhibits Anti-Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma Activity Through the DDIT4-mTORC1 Pathway

Romidepsin Exhibits Anti-Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma Activity through DDIT4-mTORC1 Pathway Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is one of the most common human malignancies globally, with high incidence and mortality rates. Given the limited current treatment options, there is an urgent need to develop new effective therapeutic drugs. I...

Identification of Lineage-Specific Epigenetic Regulators FOXA1 and GRHL2 through Chromatin Accessibility Profiling in Breast Cancer Cell Lines

Identification of Lineage-Specific Epigenetic Regulators FOXA1 and GRHL2 through Chromatin Accessibility Analysis of Breast Cancer Cell Lines Background Breast cancer is a highly heterogeneous disease currently classified clinically based on gene expression patterns, intrinsic molecular subtypes, and the expression of hormone receptors/human epider...

Adeno-Associated Virus-Mediated Trastuzumab Delivery to the Central Nervous System for Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2+ Brain Metastasis

AAV-Mediated Trastuzumab Delivery to the Central Nervous System for EGFR2-Positive Brain Metastases Introduction In the treatment of breast cancer, tumors that are human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) positive exhibit more aggressive characteristics, posing significant challenges for clinical treatment. Since the approval of trastuzumab ...

An Explicit Estimated Baseline Model for Robust Estimation of Fluorophores Using Multiple-Wavelength Excitation Fluorescence Spectroscopy

Research Background Fluorescence spectroscopy is a widely used method for identifying and quantifying fluorescent substances (fluorophores). However, quantifying the fluorophores of interest becomes challenging when the material contains other fluorophores (baseline fluorophores), especially when the emission spectrum of the baseline is not well-de...
