Abstract Tumor-associated macrophages (TAM) have multifaceted roles in tumor development but they been associated particularly closely with angiogenesis. However, although the accumulation of TAM (M2 phenotype) promotes angiogenesis, mechanism through which monocytes differentiate to generate is unclear. Here, we report that mTOR pathway a critical element regulation monocyte differentiation TAM. In human peripheral stimulated by lipopolysaccharide, was inhibited rapamycin or activated RNA...
Primary pulmonary lymphoepithelial carcinoma (pLEC) is a subtype of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) characterized by Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection. However, the molecular pathogenesis pLEC remains poorly understood. In this study, we explored using whole-exome sequencing (WES) and RNA-whole-transcriptome (RNA-seq) technologies. Datasets normal tissue, other types NSCLC, EBV-positive nasopharyngeal (EBV+-NPC) were obtained from public databases. Furthermore, described gene signatures,...
Peripheral serotonin is involved in tumorigenesis and induces a pro-proliferative effect hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells; however, the intracellular mechanisms by which exerts mitogenic remain unclear. In this research, we examined whether FOXO3a, transcription factor at interface of crucial cellular processes, plays role downstream HCC cells.The cell viability expression FOXO3a was assessed three lines (Huh7, HepG2 Hep3B) during serum deprivation presence or absence serotonin. Serum...
Extensive reprogramming of cellular energy metabolism is a hallmark cancer. Despite its importance, the molecular mechanism controlling this tumour metabolic shift remains not fully understood. Here we show that 14-3-3σ regulates cancer and protects cells from tumorigenic transformation. opposes tumour-promoting programmes by enhancing c-Myc poly-ubiquitination subsequent degradation. demonstrates suppressive impact on glycolysis, glutaminolysis, mitochondrial biogenesis other major...
Abstract Purpose: Advanced pancreatic cancer has remained challenging to treat effectively. This study aimed investigate the clinical effects and safety of immunotherapy with dendritic cells cytokine-induced killer (DC-CIK) administered chemotherapy (CT) S-1 in this malignancy. Experimental Design: Consecutive patients (n = 47) advanced were treated either DC-CIK + S-1, alone, or best supportive care. Results: plus produced significantly longer median OS PFS (212 136 days) compared (128 85...
Refractory wound healing is one of the most common complications diabetes. Excessive production reactive oxygen species (ROS) can cause chronic inflammation and thus impair cutaneous healing. Scavenging these ROS in dressing may offer effective treatment for wounds. Here, a nanocomposite hydrogel based on alginate positively charged Eudragit nanoparticles containing edaravone, an efficient free radical scavenger, was developed maximal sequestration. enhanced edaravone solubility stability...
Abstract Anoikis is a type of programmed cell death induced by detachment from the extracellular matrix. In cancer cells, anoikis resistance essential for survival in blood circulation and distant metastasis. However, mechanisms behind gastric remain largely unknown. Herein, we demonstrate that NADPH oxidase 4 (NOX4) expression reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation are upregulated suspension cultures compared with adherent cultures. Silencing NOX4 decreases ROS downregulates EGFR,...
We have assessed the combination of DC-CIK with S-1 plus cisplatin chemotherapy in advanced gastric cancer (AGC) and role mutational analysis circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) T-cell receptor (TCR) repertoire predicting clinical outcomes.Consecutive patients (n = 63) AGC were allocated to treatment alone, cisplatin, combined or cisplatin. The primary endpoints progression-free survival (PFS) overall (OS) at 1 year; secondary disease control rate ctDNA TCR repertoire.The infusions well tolerated...
Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) protein overexpression or gene amplification is an important predictive biomarker for identifying patients with breast cancer, who may benefit from HER2-targeted therapy. However, little known about the molecular landscape and efficacy of therapy in HER2-mutated metastatic cancer. We analysed HER2 mutation features 1184 invasive In addition, a single-arm, prospective, phase-II study (NCT03412383) pyrotinib was conducted patient...
Abstract Gastric cancer is one of the most common malignancies worldwide and vasculogenic mimicry (VM) considered to be leading cause for failure anti-angiogenesis therapy in advanced gastric patients. In present study, we investigate role tenascin-c (TNC) formation VM found that TNC was upregulated tissue than corresponding adjacent tissues correlated with poor prognosis cancer. Furthermore, knockdown significantly inhibited proliferation cells vitro vivo, a reduction cell migration...
Abstract BACKGROUND: Mutations in the tumor protein 53 ( TP53 ) suppressor gene are common head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) correlate with radioresistance. Currently, there no clinically available therapeutic approaches targeting p53 HNSCC. In this report, authors propose a strategy that uses mutational status to individualize antimetabolic strategies for potentiation of radiation toxicity HNSCC cells. METHODS: Glycolytic flux mitochondrial respiration were evaluated wild‐type...
Cationic antimicrobial peptides (CAMPs) are potent therapeutics for drug-resistant bacterial infections. However, the clinical application of CAMPs is hampered by its poor proteolytic stability and hemolytic activity toward eukaryotic cells. Great efforts have been made to design generate derivatives with improved pharmacological properties. Here, we report a novel stapling protocol, which tethers two ε-amino groups lysine residue N-alkylation reaction on hydrophilic face amphiphilic...
G protein coupled estrogen receptor (GPER1) is a membrane receptor, belonging to the seven-transmembrane protein-coupled receptors family, and has important biological functions in cancer. However, functional role of GPER1 gastric cancer (GC) remain incompletely understood. In present study, we employed gene set enrichment analysis discovered that expression was concomitant with EMT process positively correlated activation PI3K/AKT pathway GC. Knockdown siRNA suppressed proliferation,...

The extracellular matrix (ECM) plays a central role in the formation of tumor microenvironment. deposition ECM is associated with poor prognosis variety tumors. Aberrant could undermine effect chemotherapy and immunotherapy. However, there no systematic analysis on relationship between or effect. In present study, we applied gene set variation (GSVA) algorithm to score 2199 canonical pathways 2125 cases probe sequencing data identified core matrisome as driving factor gastric cancer...
