OCA-T1 and OCA-T2 are coactivators of POU2F3 in the tuft cell lineage

Xiaoli S. Wu et al.

Summary: Tuft cells are rare chemosensory cells that play a role in coordinating immune and neural responses to foreign pathogens. Recent studies have shown their involvement in small-cell lung cancer. This study reveals the critical role of POU2F3-OCA-T complex in tuft cell identity and its potential as a molecular vulnerability in small-cell lung cancer.

Small-cell lung cancer

Charles M. Rudin et al.

Summary: Small-cell lung cancer is a type of lung cancer characterized by high proliferative rate, early metastasis, and poor prognosis, strongly associated with tobacco carcinogens. Most patients are diagnosed with metastatic disease, with only a small fraction having potentially curative earlier-stage disease. Genomic profiling reveals extensive chromosomal rearrangements and high mutation burden in SCLC, often involving inactivation of TP53 and RB1 tumor suppressor genes.

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.

Molecular profiles of small cell lung cancer subtypes: Therapeutic implications

Anna Schwendenwein et al.

Summary: Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is a highly lethal subtype of lung cancer characterized by rapid doubling time and high propensity to metastasize. Recent research has shown intratumoral heterogeneity within SCLC, leading to the development of novel subtype-specific classifications based on neuroendocrine and molecular features, which may have important implications for clinical treatment.

Ferroptosis response segregates small cell lung cancer (SCLC) neuroendocrine subtypes

Christina M. Bebber et al.

Summary: The loss of TP53 and RB1 in treatment-naive small cell lung cancer (SCLC) indicates a need to inactivate cell death pathways prior to therapy. This study identifies non-neuroendocrine (NE) SCLC as vulnerable to ferroptosis and neuroendocrine (NE) SCLC as susceptible to TRX pathway inhibition, with combining these treatments showing promise in overcoming subtype plasticity in SCLC.

PAX9 Determines Epigenetic State Transition and Cell Fate in Cancer

Zibo Zhao et al.

Summary: This study highlights the oncogenic function of the PAX9/NuRD complex epigenetic axis in human SCLC and suggests that reactivating primed enhancers may be a potential therapeutic strategy for treating SCLC expressing high levels of PAX9, offering insights into personalized therapeutic approaches targeting the PAX9-regulated network in small cell lung cancer.
