[Hereditary Cancer in Clinical Practice] Scientists provide a review of the emerging preclinical and epidemiologic evidence implicating the dysregulation of progesterone-mediated receptor activator of nuclear factor κB signaling in the pathogenesis of BRCA1-associated breast cancer.
[Clinical and Translational Medicine] Investigators explored the impacts of prostate cancer-associated ncRNA transcripts 1 (PCAT1) on tumorigenesis and radioimmune responses and the underlying molecular mechanisms in NSCLC.
[Cell Reports] The authors transplanted organoid cells derived from alveolar type II cells enriched by SCA1-negative status or multipotent SCA1-positive progenitor cells into injured mouse lungs.
[Molecular Cancer Research] A transgenic mouse model expressing human Caspase-9b in the lung pneumocytes developed inflammatory lung lesions, which correlated with enhanced activation of the NF-κB pathway and increased influx of immunosuppressive MDSCs in contrast to wild-type mice.
[Clinical Cancer Research] A retrospective database query identified patients with KRAS-mutant NSCLC to understand their propensity to develop brain metastases.
[Journal For Immunotherapy of Cancer] Researchers supported the rational design of immunotherapeutic strategies targeting cancer stem cells to optimize their responsiveness to local CD8+CD103+ TRM cells for more efficient anticancer treatments.
[Experimental & Molecular Medicine] Researchers demonstrated that both genetic ablation and pharmacological inhibition of phospholipase D (PLD) 1 and PLD2 reprogram the tumor microenvironment and enhance antitumor immunity in a syngeneic melanoma model.
[Rise Therapeutics] Rise Therapeutics announced the completion of full enrollment in the four-week dose expansion cohort of its Phase Ib clinical trial evaluating orally dosed R-2487 in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis. R-2487 is a synthetic biology-based immunotherapy designed to address underlying immune dysfunction in autoimmune diseases.
[Inflammation Research] The authors examine how Tregs release the potent immunosuppressive cytokine IL-35, suppressing effector T cell responses and encouraging Treg proliferation. Studies have shown that IL-35 is essential for preserving immunological homeostasis.
