Imatinib facilitates gemcitabine sensitivity by targeting epigenetically activated PDGFC signaling in pancreatic cancer

Yin-Hao Shi et al.

Summary: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a malignant tumor with poor prognosis. Gemcitabine-based chemotherapy is one of the main treatment modalities, but gemcitabine resistance frequently occurs. Platelet-derived growth factor C (PDGFC) is abnormally highly expressed in gemcitabine-resistant PDAC. Silencing PDGFC expression enhances the therapeutic effect of gemcitabine on PDAC. PDGFC promotes gemcitabine resistance by activating the PDGFR-PI3K-AKT signaling pathway.

N6-methyladenosine demethylase FTO enhances chemo-resistance in colorectal cancer through SIVA1-mediated apoptosis

Ziyou Lin et al.

Summary: This study reveals that N6-methyladenosine (m6A) plays a critical role in drug resistance in colorectal cancer (CRC). The m6A demethylase FTO is up-regulated in 5-fluorouracil (5-FU)-resistant CRC, and its effect on 5-FU resistance is mediated through the FTO-SIVA1 axis. Inhibition of FTO may restore the sensitivity of chemo-resistant CRC cells to 5-FU.

Summary: The American Cancer Society predicts that there will be 1,958,310 new cancer cases and 609,820 cancer deaths in the United States in 2023. While incidence trends for most cancers are favorable, prostate cancer saw a significant increase of 3% annually from 2014 to 2019. However, the overall cancer death rate continues to decline due to advances in treatment, with a 33% reduction since 1991.

The role of m6A demethylase FTO in chemotherapy resistance mediating acute myeloid leukemia relapse

Zhi-Wei Zhang et al.

Summary: This study identified dysregulated N6-methyladenosine (m(6)A) methylation in relapsed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients, which is associated with chemotherapy resistance and cell differentiation. The overexpression of m(6)A demethylase FTO was found to enhance drug resistance in AML cells. Mechanistically, FTO regulates the mRNA degradation of FOXO3, leading to attenuated cell differentiation. These findings suggest that the FTO-m(6)A-FOXO3 axis is a major regulator of chemotherapy resistance in AML and FTO could be a potential therapeutic target.

RNA N6-methyladenosine demethylase FTO promotes pancreatic cancer progression by inducing the autocrine activity of PDGFC in an m6A-YTHDF2-dependent manner

Zhen Tan et al.

Summary: This study reveals that downregulation of FTO leads to increased m(6)A modifications in the 3'UTR of PDGFC, and then modulates its transcriptional level in an m(6)A-YTHDF2-dependent manner. PDGFC upregulation promotes cell growth, highlighting a potential therapeutic target for PDAC treatment and prognostic prediction.

Senescent neutrophils-derived exosomal piRNA-17560 promotes chemoresistance and EMT of breast cancer via FTO-mediated m6A demethylation

Baochi Ou et al.

Summary: This study demonstrates that senescent neutrophils in breast cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy display enhanced senescence and produce increased number of exosomes. These exosomes contain piRNA-17560, which enhances the expression of FTO protein in breast cancer cells, leading to chemoresistance and epithelial-mesenchymal transition. Clinical analysis shows that the level of exosomal piR-17560 correlates with poor chemotherapy response in breast cancer patients.

Berberine Overcomes Gemcitabine-Associated Chemoresistance through Regulation of Rap1/PI3K-Akt Signaling in Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma

Keisuke Okuno et al.

Summary: This study shows that Berberine (BBR) can enhance the chemosensitivity of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) cells to Gemcitabine (Gem). Cell culture and patient-derived organoid experiments demonstrate that the combination of BBR and Gem has better anti-cancer effects in Gem-resistant PDAC cells. Furthermore, the study reveals that the Rap1/PI3K-Akt signaling pathway plays a key role in BBR-mediated chemosensitization in PDAC.
