Intraperitoneal collagenase as a novel therapeutic approach in an experimental model of colorectal peritoneal carcinomatosis

D. Garcia-Olmo et al.

Summary: The study showed that local collagenase treatment, either alone or in combination with mitomycin, is safe and effective in reducing tumor volume of colorectal peritoneal metastases. Animals did not exhibit any physiological or behavioral disorders during the 8-week follow-up, indicating the potential clinical application of this treatment method.

Determinants and Functions of CAFs Secretome During Cancer Progression and Therapy

Jenniffer Linares et al.

Summary: Multiple lines of evidence suggest that cancer development and malignant progression are influenced not only by cancer cell-autonomous processes but also by interactions with the tumor microenvironment, particularly through cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) that regulate key mechanisms during metastasis and treatment response. Recent advances in CAFs biology highlight the potential of CAFs-secreted factors as druggable targets and biomarkers for cancer diagnosis and prognosis, paving the way for further research and clinical applications.

Global cancer statistics 2020: GLOBOCAN estimates of incidence and mortality worldwide for 36 cancers in 185 countries

Hyuna Sung et al.

Summary: The global cancer burden in 2020 saw an estimated 19.3 million new cancer cases and almost 10.0 million cancer deaths. Female breast cancer surpassed lung cancer as the most commonly diagnosed cancer, while lung cancer remained the leading cause of cancer death. These trends are expected to rise in 2040, with transitioning countries experiencing a larger increase compared to transitioned countries due to demographic changes and risk factors associated with globalization and a growing economy. Efforts to improve cancer prevention measures and provision of cancer care in transitioning countries will be crucial for global cancer control.

Cancer-Associated Fibroblasts Promote Aggressive Gastric Cancer Phenotypes via Heat Shock Factor 1-Mediated Secretion of Extracellular Vesicles

Nil Grunberg et al.

Summary: This study used RNA sequencing of CAFs from gastric cancer patients to identify a stromal gene signature associated with aggressive gastric cancer, with HSF1 playing a key regulatory role in this signature. HSF1 upregulates inhibin subunit beta A and thrombospondin 2, which are secreted in CAF-derived extracellular vesicles to promote cancer progression.

Matthew Luzentales-Simpson et al.

Summary: Inflammatory bowel diseases are characterized by chronic inflammation along the gastrointestinal tract due to excessive leukocyte infiltration. Current treatments include aminosalicylates, corticosteroids, immunosuppressants, and biologics such as anti-TNF antibodies, although some patients may become unresponsive to anti-TNF therapy.

Inactivation of EMILIN-1 by Proteolysis and Secretion in Small Extracellular Vesicles Favors Melanoma Progression and Metastasis

Ana Amor Lopez et al.

Summary: Studies have shown that melanoma-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) play a role in lymph node metastasis, with EMILIN-1 being proteolyzed and secreted in small EVs as a mechanism to reduce its intracellular levels and promote metastasis in mouse melanoma lymph node metastatic cells. EMILIN-1 exhibits tumor and metastasis suppressive properties, reducing effective migration, cell viability, primary tumor growth, and metastasis.

Cancer-associated fibroblast infiltration in gastric cancer: the discrepancy in subtypes pathways and immunosuppression

Xu Liu et al.

Summary: The study revealed that cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAF) tend to have higher infiltration in diffuse, genomically stable, and advanced gastric cancer. CAF is associated with an immunosuppressive microenvironment and leads to wide transcriptomics alterations. A risk score system based on receptor tyrosine kinases and TGFB pathway ligands expression can predict gastric cancer survival, indicating CAF's association with aggressive phenotype of gastric cancer.

Tetraspanins: Novel Molecular Regulators of Gastric Cancer

Yue Deng et al.

Summary: Tetraspanins play diverse roles in the progression of gastric cancer, including promoting or inhibiting cell proliferation and invasion, regulating cell motility, and impacting lymph node metastasis. They also have significant clinical implications in therapeutic targeting, drug resistance development, and prognosis prediction for gastric cancer.

Extracellular matrix and its therapeutic potential for cancer treatment

Jiacheng Huang et al.

Summary: The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a key component of tumors, playing roles in mechanical support, microenvironment modulation, and signaling. Interactions between cancer cells and the tumor microenvironment can lead to ECM stiffness changes and contribute to malignant transformation. Understanding ECM dysregulation in the TME is essential for identifying therapeutic targets for cancer treatment.
