Nanoparticle-based therapeutic strategies targeting major clinical challenges in pancreatic cancer treatment

Mubin Tarannum et al.

Summary: This article focuses on the pathological hallmarks of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and the impact of nanotechnology in finding solutions for its treatment. It discusses the use of nanoparticle-based systems for delivering chemotherapeutic agents, overcoming chemoresistance, targeting molecular heterogeneity, improving immunotherapy, and remodeling the tumor microenvironment. A special section is dedicated to the design of non-traditional nanoparticle modalities that may hold promise for improving the dismal prognosis of PDAC.

FGF/FGFR-Dependent Molecular Mechanisms Underlying Anti-Cancer Drug Resistance

Jakub Szymczyk et al.

Summary: Deregulation of the FGF/FGFR axis in cancer contributes to the development of chemoresistance, limiting the effectiveness of current treatment strategies. This dysfunction generates molecular mechanisms that may affect tumor sensitivity to drugs by promoting cell proliferation, survival, motility, and inhibiting apoptosis. Targeting components of the FGFR/FGF signaling module appears to be a promising approach to overcome drug resistance in cancer therapy, despite the potential for further resistance development through specific mutations and molecular cross-talks.

Role of FGFR2c and Its PKCε Downstream Signaling in the Control of EMT and Autophagy in Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma Cells

Danilo Ranieri et al.

Summary: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a highly malignant and treatment-resistant cancer characterized by acquired EMT signature and dysregulated autophagy. Overexpression of FGFR2c and PKC epsilon signaling pathway are closely related to the aggressive phenotype in PDAC, and inhibition of these pathways may provide a potential therapeutic strategy to reverse EMT spectrum and restore autophagy.

Targeting Tumor-Stromal Interactions in Pancreatic Cancer: Impact of Collagens and Mechanical Traits

Parniyan Maneshi et al.

Summary: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) has a poor prognosis due to late diagnosis and lack of effective treatments. The tumor microenvironment plays a pivotal role in tumor progression and drug resistance with collagen being a key component. Experimental models are available to study tumor-stromal interactions and potential therapeutic targets within the stroma are being discussed.

Summary: Pancreatic cancer, especially PDAC, has a poor prognosis with low survival rates, mainly due to its dense stroma deposition and immune suppression in the TME. Research on TME composition may lead to new therapeutic targets for better treatment outcomes.

Dissecting FGF Signalling to Target Cellular Crosstalk in Pancreatic Cancer

Edward P. Carter et al.

Summary: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) has a poor prognosis due to challenges in treatment and late detection, with the FGFR signalling pathway playing a critical role in tumor progression and interaction with the tumor microenvironment. However, it is clear that the FGFR signalling pathway does not act in isolation and interacts with other signaling networks. Therapeutic approaches are being developed to improve prognosis for this terrible disease.

Pancreatic Cancer Signaling Pathways, Genetic Alterations, and Tumor Microenvironment: The Barriers Affecting the Method of Treatment

Darya Javadrashid et al.

Summary: Genetic alterations, particularly the K-Ras mutation, play a major role in the progression of pancreatic precursor lesions into PDAC. The tumor microenvironment and immune evasion are challenges in therapeutic approaches, with targeting signaling molecules and immune checkpoint inhibition showing promising results in pancreatic cancer treatment.

Expression of the E5 Oncoprotein of HPV16 Impacts on the Molecular Profiles of EMT-Related and Differentiation Genes in Ectocervical Low-Grade Lesions

Danilo Ranieri et al.

Summary: It has been shown that the early oncoprotein E5 of HPV16 (16E5) is positively correlated with the expression of FGFR2c, but inversely correlated with the expression of keratin 10 (K10), loricrin (LOR), and involucrin (INV). Depletion of 16E5 in LSIL-derived W12 cells containing episomal HPV16 can counteract these molecular events.
