Platycodin D confers oxaliplatin Resistance in Colorectal Cancer by activating the LATS2/YAP1 axis of the hippo signaling pathway

Chien-Hao Wang et al.

Summary: In this study, platycodin D (PD), a saponin found in Platycodon grandiflorum, was shown to inhibit the proliferation, invasion, and migration ability of LoVo and OR-LoVo cells. Combined treatment of PD with oxaliplatin dramatically reduced cellular proliferation and activated the degradation of YAP1, leading to transcriptional inhibition of downstream genes regulating cell proliferation, pro-survival, and metastasis. PD could be a promising agent for overcoming oxaliplatin-resistant colorectal cancer.

Notch signaling, hypoxia, and cancer

Mingzhou Guo et al.

Summary: Notch signaling is important in cell fate determination and dysregulated in human solid tumors. Hypoxia, an important feature of many solid tumors, activates hypoxia-induced factors (HIFs) and their downstream targets to promote tumorigenesis and cancer development. Recently, HIFs have been found to trigger the Notch signaling pathway in various organisms and tissues. This review focuses on the pro- and anti-tumorigenic functions of Notch signaling, discusses the crosstalk between Notch signaling and cellular hypoxic response in cancer pathogenesis, and explores pharmacological strategies targeting Notch signaling and hypoxia in cancer.

N6-Methyladenosine-Mediated Up-Regulation of FZD10 Regulates Liver Cancer Stem Cells' Properties and Lenvatinib Resistance Through WNT/b-Catenin and Hippo Signaling Pathways

Jinghan Wang et al.

Summary: This study reveals that the expression of Frizzled-10 (FZD10) in liver cancer stem cells is regulated by METTL3-mediated N6-methyladenosine methylation of FZD10 mRNA, and FZD10 promotes self-renewal, tumorigenicity, and metastasis of liver CSCs via activating β-catenin and YAP1. The FZD10-β-catenin/YAP1 axis is activated in liver CSCs and indicates poor prognosis. Furthermore, the FZD10/β-catenin/c-Jun/MEK/ERK axis determines the responses of hepatoma cells to lenvatinib treatment.

ABC transporters affects tumor immune microenvironment to regulate cancer immunotherapy and multidrug resistance

Jingyi Fan et al.

Summary: Multidrug resistance (MDR) is when cancer cells become resistant to a wide range of unrelated drugs. This hinders cancer treatment and is a major cause of chemotherapy failure. ABC transporters are frequently overexpressed in MDR cancer cells, promoting drug efflux and reducing drug accumulation. Recent evidence suggests that ABC transporters also regulate the tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) by transporting cytokines, influencing anti-tumor immunity and drug sensitivity. Inhibition of ABC transporter expression or function can enhance the efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibitors by promoting an anticancer immune microenvironment. This review provides an update on current research progress in this field.

Summary: The role of intestinal barrier homeostasis in an individual's general well-being has been widely addressed. Colorectal cancer poses a challenge due to multidrug resistance (MDR), with ABC transporters playing a major role. Natural products, particularly phytochemicals, have shown potential in reversing MDR and sensitizing cancer cells to chemotherapy drugs. However, a balance must be achieved between xenobiotic efflux and drug accumulation in cancer cells, where ABC transporters play a vital role that requires further analysis. This review summarizes the knowledge on ABC transporters' function in intestinal barrier cells and highlights the potential of natural products as nutraceutical molecules to overcome MDR.

Summary: Pregnane x receptor (PXR) plays a crucial role in drug metabolism and also has pleiotropic functions in regulating inflammatory responses, glucose metabolism, and protecting normal cells against carcinogenesis. It can regulate gene expression at both the transcriptional and translational level and has a broad protein-protein interaction network that is involved in cross signaling pathways. Understanding how PXR maintains genome stability and prevents carcinogenesis can be beneficial for clinical diagnosis and treatment. Additionally, PXR contributes to chemotherapeutic drug resistance through the regulation of CYP450 enzymes and multidrug resistance proteins. Furthermore, this review discusses promising antagonists and their clinical applications in reversing chemoresistance.
