Abstract Simultaneously targeting HER2 and HER3 pathways is a potentially effective strategy for treating patients with HER2-positive gastric cancer (GC). A recent significant advancement in targeted therapy GC the development of trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd). However, co-administration blockade T-DXd to has not yet been explored, making this pioneering study. Our vitro analysis showed that cell growth inhibitory effect on cells resembled antiproliferative pattern induced by trastuzumab,...
Abstract COP9 Signalosome Subunit 5 (COPS5), a deubiquitinating enzyme, contributes to chemoresistance, and its expression is closely correlated with poor prognosis in patients solid tumors. However, the role of COPS5 amplification gastric cancer (GC) inhibition HER2-amplified GC models has never been elucidated. In curated stomach adenocarcinoma cohort (n=294) from The Cancer Genome Atlas datasets, significantly co-occurred HER2 (10.5% vs. 2.7%, P=0.040) was associated worse disease-free...
Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) coordinate the malignancy of cancer cells via secretory materials. Reprogrammed lipid metabolism and signaling play critical roles in biology. Oleic acid (OA) serves as a source energy under glucose-deficient conditions, but its function progression remains unclear. The present study investigated that CAFs xenografted tumors had higher amounts fatty acids, particularly OA, compared to normal fibroblasts, promoted cell stemness lung adenocarcinoma...
Safe and efficient drug delivery systems have received great attention for cancer therapy due to their enhanced cancer-targeting efficiency reduced undesirable side effects.
Metformin, a drug for type 2 diabetes mellitus, has shown therapeutic effects various cancers. However, it had no beneficial on the survival rate of human malignant mesothelioma ( HMM ) patients. The present study was performed to elucidate underlying mechanism metformin resistance in cells. Glucose‐starved cells enhanced metformin, demonstrated by decreased apoptosis and autophagy increased cell survival. These showed abnormalities mitochondria, such as ATP synthesis, morphological...

The potyvirus coat protein (CP) is involved in aphid transmission, cell-to-cell movement and virus assembly, not only by binding to viral RNA, but also self-interaction or interactions with other factors. In this study, a number of CP mutants Soybean mosaic (SMV) containing deletions site-directed mutations were generated cloned into yeast two-hybrid vectors. Interaction was confirmed the expression reporter genes, including HIS3, ADE2 MEL1, strain AH109. Deletion C-terminal region caused...
Knowledge that links the physicochemical properties of nanoparticles (NP) to their toxicity is key evaluating and understanding mechanisms underlying developing appropriate testing methods for NP; however, this currently limited since only a small set NP have been used, with typically poor control physical properties. In study, eight types polystyrene (PLNP) were synthesized different functional groups, but all based on an identical core. vitro cell-based assays performed determine influence...
Glycated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) is widely used for monitoring and diagnosing human diabetes mellitus, but rarely in veterinary clinics. The goal of our study was to validate the commercial HbA1c testing system SD A1cCare analyzer (Bionote, Gyeoggi-do, South Korea) use dogs. Dogs were recruited with owner's consent. Diabetic status determined based on clinical signs, fasting hyperglycemia, glycosuria. Intra-assay precision linearity evaluated EDTA, heparin, or citrate as anticoagulants, had...
Tumor hypoxia is known to promote the acquisition of more aggressive phenotypes in human transitional cell carcinoma (TCC), including drug resistance. Accumulating evidence suggests that mitochondria play a central role chemoresistance TCC. However, hypoxia-induced resistance TCC remains elusive. The present study investigated function using line under hypoxic conditions. In vitro (0.1% O2, 48 h) was achieved by incubating cells air chamber. Mitochondrial events involving were assessed....
