Prognostic Value of PSMB5 and Correlations with LC3II and Reactive Oxygen Species Levels in the Bone Marrow Mononuclear Cells of Bortezomib-Resistant Multiple Myeloma Patients.

Proteasome inhibitors (PIs) constitute the most common type of induction treatment for multiple myeloma. Interactions between the proteasome, autophagy, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) have been shown in the past, thus emphasizing the need for a better understanding of the underlying pathophysiology. For this study, bone marrow mononuclear cells from 110 myeloma patients were collected at different disease stages. PSMB5 and LC3I/II protein levels were determined using Western blot, proteasome proteolytic activity (PPA) with spectrofluorometry, and ROS with flow cytometry. PSMB5 accumulation

T-Type Calcium Channels: A Mixed Blessing.

The role of T-type calcium channels is well established in excitable cells, where they preside over action potential generation, automaticity, and firing. They also contribute to intracellular calcium signaling, cell cycle progression, and cell fate; and, in this sense, they emerge as key regulators also in non-excitable cells. In particular, their expression may be considered a prognostic factor in cancer. Almost all cancer cells express T-type calcium channels to the point that it has been considered a pharmacological target; but, as the drugs used to reduce their expression are not complete

Polyphenols: Chemoprevention and therapeutic potentials in hematological malignancies.

Polyphenols are one of the largest plant-derived natural product and they play an important role in plants' defense as well as in human health and disease. A number of them are pleiotropic molecules and have been shown to regulate signaling pathways, immune response and cell growth and proliferation which all play a role in cancer development. Hematological malignancies on the other hand, are cancers of the blood. While current therapies are efficacious, they are usually expensive and with unwanted side effects. Thus, the search for newer less toxic agents. Polyphenols have been reported to po

Biological characteristics of γδT cells and application in tumor immunotherapy.

Human γδT cells are a special immune cell type which exist in small quantities in the body, do not require processing and presentation for antigen recognition, and have non-major histocompatibility complex (MHC)-restricted immune response. They play an important role in the body's anti-tumor, anti-infection, immune regulation, immune surveillance and maintenance of immune tolerance. This article reviews the generation and development of human γδT cells, genetic characteristics, classification, recognition and role of antigens, and research progress in tumor immunotherapy.

CAR-T therapy for neuroendocrine neoplasms: a review of molecular targets and clinical translation.

Utilization of redox modulating small molecules that selectively act as pro-oxidants in cancer cells to open a therapeutic window for improving cancer therapy.

There is a rapidly growing body of literature supporting the notion that differential oxidative metabolism in cancer versus normal cells represents a metabolic frailty that can be exploited to open a therapeutic window into cancer therapy. These cancer cell-specific metabolic frailties may be amenable to manipulation with non-toxic small molecule redox active compounds traditionally thought to be antioxidants. In this review we describe the potential mechanisms and clinical applicability in cancer therapy of four small molecule redox active agents: melatonin, vitamin E, selenium, and vitamin C

Sorcin: a novel potential target in therapies of cancers.

Soluble resistance-related calcium-binding protein (sorcin) is a member of the penta-EF-hand protein family. Sorcin is widely distributed in normal human tissues, such as the brain, heart, lymphocytes, kidneys, breast and skin. Findings suggest that sorcin is associated with the regulation of calcium homeostasis, cell cycle and vesicle trafficking. It has been reported that many types of non-neoplastic diseases such as diabetes, viral infection, infertility, and nervous system diseases were affected by the expression of sorcin. One of the main issues is the role of sorcin in neoplastic disease
