Immune Therapies for Myelodysplastic Syndromes and Acute Myeloid Leukemia.

Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML) are hematologic malignancies arising from the bone marrow. Despite recent advances in treating these diseases, patients with higher-risk MDS and AML continue to have a poor prognosis with limited survival. It has long been recognized that there is an immune component to the pathogenesis of MDS and AML, but until recently, immune therapies have played a limited role in treating these diseases. Immune suppressive therapy exhibits durable clinical responses in selected patients with MDS, but the question of which patients are most s

HMMR in human cancers: regulatory mechanism and biological function.

Hyaluronan-mediated motility receptor (HMMR), also referred to as RHAMM or CD168, has gained recognition as a multifunctional protein that mediates the transmission of extracellular matrix-derived hyaluronan (HA) signals to intracellular pathways regulating tumor growth, migration, and mitosis. Overexpression of HMMR is observed in various cancers, including head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, breast cancer, lung cancer, and prostate cancer, as well as several hematologic malignancies. This elevated expression correlates with poor prognosis, rendering it a valuable marker for survival predi

Beneath the surface in autoimmune hemolytic anemia: pathogenetic networks, therapeutic advancements and open questions.

In recent years, the pathophysiologic framework of autoimmune hemolytic anemias (AIHAs) has evolved considerably, extending beyond the simplistic paradigm of antibody-mediated red blood cell (RBC) destruction, which is now recognized as a downstream consequence of a broader immune dysregulation. AIHA is fundamentally orchestrated by a complex interplay between innate and adaptive immune components, including autoreactive B and T lymphocytes, macrophages, and the reticuloendothelial system. Central to disease pathogenesis are two interrelated mechanisms: clonal B-cell expansion with autoantibod

NF-κB in biology and targeted therapy: new insights and translational implications.

NF-κB signaling has been discovered for nearly 40 years. Initially, NF-κB signaling was identified as a pivotal pathway in mediating inflammatory responses. However, with extensive and in-depth investigations, researchers have discovered that its role can be expanded to a variety of signaling mechanisms, biological processes, human diseases, and treatment options. In this review, we first scrutinize the research process of NF-κB signaling, and summarize the composition, activation, and regulatory mechanism of NF-κB signaling. We investigate the interaction of NF-κB signaling with other importa

Cancer immunotherapies: A hope for the uncurable?

The use of cancer immunotherapies is not novel but has been used over the decades in the clinic. Only recently have we found the true potential of stimulating an anti-tumor response after the breakthrough of checkpoint inhibitors. Cancer immunotherapies have become the first line treatment for many malignancies at various stages. Nevertheless, the clinical results in terms of overall survival and progression free survival were not as anticipated. Majority of cancer patients do not respond to immunotherapies and the reasons differ. Hence, further improvements for cancer immunotherapies are cruc

Abscopal Effects in Metastatic Cancer: Is a Predictive Approach Possible to Improve Individual Outcomes?

Patients with metastatic cancers often require radiotherapy (RT) as a palliative therapy for cancer pain. RT can, however, also induce systemic antitumor effects outside of the irradiated field (abscopal effects) in various cancer entities. The occurrence of the abscopal effect is associated with a specific immunological activation in response to RT-induced cell death, which is mainly seen under concomitant immune checkpoint blockade. Even if the number of reported apscopal effects has increased since the introduction of immune checkpoint inhibition, its occurrence is still considered rare and

Molecular mechanisms and clinical management of cancer bone metastasis.

As one of the most common metastatic sites of malignancies, bone has a unique microenvironment that allows metastatic tumor cells to grow and flourish. The fenestrated capillaries in the bone, bone matrix, and bone cells, including osteoblasts and osteoclasts, together maintain the homeostasis of the bone microenvironment. In contrast, tumor-derived factors act on bone components, leading to subsequent bone resorption or excessive bone formation. The various pathways involved also provide multiple targets for therapeutic strategies against bone metastases. In this review, we summarize the curr
