The PI3K-AKT-mTOR-signaling pathway is frequently activated in glioblastoma (GBM). Inhibition of phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate 3-kinase catalytic subunit beta (PIK3CB)/p110β (a PI3K isoform) by RNAi substantially suppresses GBM growth with less toxicity to normal astrocytes. However, insufficient and non-specific small interfering RNA (siRNA) delivery may limit the efficacy RNAi-based therapies against GBM. Here we prepared a novel methoxy-modified PIK3CB siRNA molecule (siPIK3CB)...

Neutrophils play a key role in the tumor microenvironment (TME); however, their functions glioblastoma (GBM) are overlooked and insufficiently studied. A detailed analysis of GBM-associated neutrophil (GBMAN) subpopulations may offer new insights opportunities for GBM immunotherapy. We analyzed single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data from 127 isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) wild-type samples to characterize GBMAN subgroups, emphasizing developmental trajectories, cellular communication,...

Melanoma, a highly aggressive skin cancer, is characterized by its strong metastatic potential and resistance to standard treatments. Recent cancer research has emphasized the significance of exosomes, type extracellular vesicle particle, in mediating cell-to-cell communication driving tumor progression. Melanoma-derived exosomes contribute metastasis facilitating immune evasion, modulating microenvironment, inducing epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition. The exosomal cargos, including...
