Monocarboxylate transporter 4 inhibition potentiates hepatocellular carcinoma immunotherapy through enhancing T cell infiltration and immune attack

Yuan Fang et al.

Summary: This study showed that overexpression of MCT4 in HCC is associated with poor prognosis. Inhibition of MCT4 can suppress tumor growth, enhance immune cell infiltration and cytotoxicity. Furthermore, MCT4 inhibition can improve the therapeutic effect of anti-PD-1 immunotherapy and prolong survival in mice.

Curcumenol triggered ferroptosis in lung cancer cells via lncRNA H19/miR-19b-3p/FTH1 axis

Ruonan Zhang et al.

Summary: Curcumenol has been found to induce cell death and inhibit cell proliferation in lung cancer cells. The study also reveals that the long non-coding RNA H19 (lncRNA H19) is downregulated in lung cancer cells treated with curcumenol, and its decreased expression enhances curcumenol-induced ferroptotic cell death through the miR-19b-3p/FTH1 axis.

TRAIL promotes hepatocellular carcinoma apoptosis and inhibits proliferation and migration via interacting with IER3

Shihai Liu et al.

Summary: The interaction between TRAIL and IER3 can induce apoptotic death of HCC cells and inhibit their proliferation and migration by inhibiting Wnt/beta-catenin signaling. This TRAIL/IER3/beta-catenin axis may serve as a viable therapeutic target for HCC patients.

Cancer-Associated Fibroblasts Suppress Cancer Development: The Other Side of the Coin

Zhanhuai Wang et al.

Summary: Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are heterogeneous cells in the tumor microenvironment that can both promote and inhibit tumor development. The activation state of CAFs can vary, leading to different roles in early-stage and advanced-stage cancer. Understanding the diverse functions and origins of CAFs is crucial for developing precise cancer therapies.

Inhibiting Ferroptosis through Disrupting the NCOA4-FTH1 Interaction: A New Mechanism of Action

Yuying Fang et al.

Summary: This study introduces a novel ferroptosis inhibitor, 9a, which blocks ferroptosis by disrupting the NCOA4-FTH1 protein-protein interaction and reducing the amount of bioavailable intracellular ferrous iron. The inhibitor shows promise in ameliorating ischemic-reperfusion injury in a rat model of ischemic stroke, suggesting potential as a drug target for neurological diseases.

Cancer-Associated Fibroblasts in Oral Cancer: A Current Perspective on Function and Potential for Therapeutic Targeting

Kamila J. Bienkowska et al.

Summary: The role of cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAF) in the microenvironment of oral cancer (OSCC) is crucial for promoting cancer progression and resistance to therapy. CAF with an activated myofibroblastic phenotype support OSCC progression and confer resistance to immuno- and targeted therapies, leading to poor prognosis in CAF-rich OSCC. Additionally, CAF shield tumors from immune attack through multiple mechanisms, particularly in promoting resistance to anti-PD-1/PD-L1 checkpoint inhibitors.
