Microenvironmental CXCL12 deletion enhances Flt3-ITD acute myeloid leukemia stem cell response to therapy by reducing p38 MAPK signaling

Nicholas R. Anderson et al.

Summary: Using a mouse model of FLT3-ITD AML, researchers found that FLT3-ITD AML LSC were enriched within the ST-HSC population and had increased expression of CXCR4. Deletion of CXCL12 from the microenvironment enhanced targeting of AML cells by Flt3-TKI plus chemotherapy treatment, including enhanced LSC targeting. Inhibition of p38 signaling reduced the maintenance of Flt3-ITD AML LSC and enhanced their sensitivity to treatment.

SOX9 and HMGB3 co-operatively transactivate NANOG and promote prostate cancer progression

Yunyi Xu et al.

Summary: This study reveals a novel regulatory mechanism involving SOX9, HMGB3, and NANOG in prostate cancer progression. SOX9 activates the transcription of NANOG by binding to a specific cis-regulatory element in its promoter, and HMGB3 acts as a partner of SOX9 to enhance this transactivation. Overexpression of SOX9 and HMGB3 is associated with increased cell survival, cell migration, and poor prognosis in prostate cancer.

DNA Damage Response Alterations in Ovarian Cancer: From Molecular Mechanisms to Therapeutic Opportunities

Maria Ovejero-Sanchez et al.

Summary: This article reviews the alterations in DNA damage response (DDR) pathways in ovarian cancer (OC), and the therapeutic potential of targeting the DDR for the treatment of OC. Failures in DDR have been associated with the development, progression, and chemoresistance of OC. Defects in DNA repair pathways, such as DNA double-strand break repair by homologous recombination and ARID1A mutations, have been found in different OC subtypes. Preclinical and clinical studies have shown promise in targeting the DDR to fight OC.

Summary: The study compared the latest cancer profiles, trends, and determinants between China and the USA in 2022. China has a higher incidence of lung cancer, while the USA has more cases of breast cancer. Recent years have seen a significant decrease in lung and colorectal cancer rates in the USA, while liver cancer rates have slightly increased. In China, rates for stomach, liver, and esophageal cancer have decreased gradually, but colorectal cancer rates have increased for the whole population.

The genomic and immune landscape of long-term survivors of high-grade serous ovarian cancer

Dale W. Garsed et al.

Summary: This study analyzed the genomic, transcriptomic, and methylomic profiles of patients with advanced-stage HGSC who survived more than 10 years after diagnosis. Long-term survivors had more alterations in DNA repair genes and higher neoantigen load. Patients were clustered into survival groups based on genomic and immune cell signatures, including different subsets of patients with BRCA1 alterations. Specific combinations of genetic and immune factors contribute to long-term survival in HGSC.

The role of interferons in ovarian cancer progression: Hinderer or promoter?

Taiqing Liu et al.

Summary: Ovarian cancer is a common gynecologic malignancy with poor prognosis and high mortality. The tumor microenvironment in ovarian cancer is regulated by interferons (IFNs), which have bidirectional effects on cancer cell growth and immune cell activation. IFNs can assist in various types of therapy for ovarian cancer, except for some pathways that may cause drug resistance. IFNs have the potential to modulate the tumor microenvironment and provide new combination strategies for ovarian cancer treatment.
