DCBLD2 Affects the Development of Colorectal Cancer via EMT and Angiogenesis and Modulates 5-FU Drug Resistance

Pan Xie et al.

Summary: DCBLD2 expression is significantly higher in colorectal cancer tissues than in normal tissues, leading to poor prognosis for patients. Overexpression of DCBLD2 causes tumor cell resistance to 5-FU. Inhibition of DCBLD2 can reduce the proliferation, migration, and invasion of colorectal cancer cells, and enhance drug sensitivity to 5-FU.

CCDC137 Is a Prognostic Biomarker and Correlates With Immunosuppressive Tumor Microenvironment Based on Pan-Cancer Analysis

Lihao Guo et al.

Summary: Our study identified CCDC137 as an oncogene and predictor of worse survival in most tumor types. High CCDC137 may contribute to elevated infiltration of TAMs and CAFs and be associated with tumor immunosuppressive status.

BCL-XL is crucial for progression through the adenoma-to-carcinoma sequence of colorectal cancer

Prashanthi Ramesh et al.

Summary: The study suggests a shift in antiapoptotic protein reliance in the progression of colorectal cancer, with BCL-2 being essential during ISC transformation and BCL-XL playing a crucial role in stem cell survival from adenoma to carcinoma. Targeting BCL-XL may enhance the efficacy of chemotherapy in CRC management.

Oncogenic enhancers drive esophageal squamous cell carcinogenesis and metastasis

Bo Ye et al.

Summary: The study identified numerous gained or lost enhancers in ESCC and LNC, contributing to transcriptomic aberrations and revealing putative driver onco-transcription factors. Inhibitors targeting the gained super-enhancers predicted HSP90AA1 and PDE4B as potential therapeutic targets for ESCC. Epigenomic profiling provides insights into reprogrammed cis-regulatory elements during ESCC carcinogenesis and metastasis, offering promising targets for cancer treatment.

Degradation of CCNK/CDK12 is a druggable vulnerability of colorectal cancer

Sebastian M. Dieter et al.

Summary: In this study, a novel treatment option for metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC) was identified through drug screening against patient-derived CRC spheroids. The compound NCT02 was found to induce proteasomal degradation of CCNK and CDK12, leading to decreased proliferation of CRC cells. Interestingly, sensitivity to CCNK/CDK12 degradation was associated with TP53 deficiency and consensus molecular subtype 4, highlighting the potential of drug-induced proteolysis for difficult-to-treat cancers.

Activation of transmembrane receptor tyrosine kinase DDR1-STAT3 cascade by extracellular matrix remodeling promotes liver metastatic colonization in uveal melanoma

Wei Dai et al.

Summary: The interaction between DDR1 and its ligand plays a crucial role in promoting metastatic colonization of uveal melanoma in the liver. Targeting DDR1 signaling and TGF-beta signaling may be a promising approach to diminish hepatic metastasis in UM.Mechanistic studies revealed the involvement of various signaling pathways related to this interaction.
