Molecular mechanisms of resveratrol as chemo and radiosensitizer in cancer.

One of the primary diseases that cause death worldwide is cancer. Cancer cells can be intrinsically resistant or acquire resistance to therapies and drugs used for cancer treatment through multiple mechanisms of action that favor cell survival and proliferation, becoming one of the leading causes of treatment failure against cancer. A promising strategy to overcome chemoresistance and radioresistance is the co-administration of anticancer agents and natural compounds with anticancer properties, such as the polyphenolic compound resveratrol (RSV). RSV has been reported to be able to sensitize c

Overview on Molecular Biomarkers for Laryngeal Cancer: Looking for New Answers to an Old Problem.

Laryngeal squamous cell cancer (LSCC) accounts for almost 25-30% of all head and neck squamous cell cancers and is clustered according to the affected districts, as this determines distinct tendency to recur and metastasize. A major role for numerous genetic alterations in driving the onset and progression of this neoplasm is emerging. However, major efforts are still required for the identification of molecular markers useful for both early diagnosis and prognostic definition of LSCC that is still characterized by significant morbidity and mortality. Non-coding RNAs appear the most promising

Application of dendritic cell extracellular vesicles as a valid nanoparticle platform for cancer therapies: a narrative review.

The prevalence of cancers has actually increased during the last few decades, affecting almost all human societies. Despite progress in therapeutic protocols, cancer is still the main cause of global human mortality. Although the advancement of modern immunotherapeutic approaches can increase the survival rate of cancer patients, new modalities are essential for improved therapeutic outcomes. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are nanosized particles and are used for cell-free approaches instead of direct whole cell-based administration. It has been thought that EVs can reduce the risks and side eff

Interplay Between Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation and Specific Inner Cellular Events That Suggest Combination Strategies for Overcoming PARP Inhibitor Resistance.

Therapeutic resistance remains a major obstacle to durable cancer control, with functional reprogramming of the DNA damage response (DDR) network playing a central role. The poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) family, particularly PARP1 and PARP2, is crucial for maintaining genomic integrity. By exploiting synthetic lethality, PARP inhibitors (PARPi) selectively target tumors with homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) and are integral to precision therapy in ovarian, breast, and prostate cancers. However, over 40% of patients with BRCA1/2 alterations develop resistance, and patient eligibil

Second-Generation Antimitotics in Cancer Clinical Trials.

Mitosis represents a promising target to block cancer cell proliferation. Classical antimitotics, mainly microtubule-targeting agents (MTAs), such as taxanes and vinca alkaloids, are amongst the most successful anticancer drugs. By disrupting microtubules, they activate the spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC), which induces a prolonged delay in mitosis, expected to induce cell death. However, resistance, toxicity, and slippage limit the MTA's effectiveness. With the desire to overcome some of the MTA's limitations, mitotic and SAC components have attracted great interest as promising microtubule

Targeting MDM2, RAS, and PCNA for cancer targeted therapy: pan-cancer approaches vs. cancer-specific strategies.

Cancer therapy and cancer drug discovery and development have been historically focused on specific cancers (tissue/organ of origin). However, with advances in molecular biology and multi-omics of cancer, there is a trend to develop pan-cancer therapeutic modalities. In targeted therapy, pan-cancer strategies target common molecular alterations across different cancer types and specific cancer strategies are tailored to the unique biological characteristics of individual tumor types. Each approach offers distinct advantages and limitations, and understanding these differences is critical in th
