Roles of Microvesicles in Tumor Progression and Clinical Applications.

Microvesicles are extracellular vesicles with diameter ranging from 100 to 1000 nm that are secreted by tumor cells or other cells in the tumor microenvironment. A growing number of studies demonstrate that tumor-derived microvesicles are involved in tumor initiation and progression, as well as drug resistance. In addition, tumor-derived microvesicles carry a variety of immunogenic molecules and inhibit tumor response to immunotherapy; therefore, they can be exploited for use in tumor vaccines. Moreover, because of their high stability, tumor-derived microvesicles extracted from body fluids ca

RNA метилтрансферазы METTL8 устанавливает m3C32 в митохондриальном tRNASThr/Ser (UCN) для оптимизации структуры trNA и митохондриального перевода.

Модифицированные нуклеотиды в tRNA являются важными определяющими факторами сворачивания, структуры и функции. Здесь мы идентифицируем METTL8 как митохондриальный белок и активный РНК метилтрансферазы, ответственный за установку m3C32 в митохондриале человека (mt-)tRNAThr и mt-tRNAser (UCN). METTL8 имеет перекрестные связи с антикодоновой стволовой петлей (ASL) многих мт-тРНК в клетках, в связи с чем возникает вопрос о том, каким образом достигается целевая специфичность метилирования. Расчленение элементов распознавания mt-tRNA выявило наличие U34G35 и t6A37/(ms2)i6A37, которые одновременно п

Actinium-225 targeted alpha particle therapy for prostate cancer.

Targeted alpha particle therapy (TAT) has emerged as a promising strategy for the treatment of prostate cancer (PCa). Actinium-225 (225Ac), a potent alpha-emitting radionuclide, may be incorporated into targeting vectors, causing robust and in some cases sustained antitumor responses. The development of radiolabeling techniques involving EDTA, DOTA, DOTPA, and Macropa chelators has laid the groundwork for advancements in this field. At the forefront of clinical trials with 225Ac in PCa are PSMA-targeted TAT agents, notably [225Ac]Ac-PSMA-617, [225Ac]Ac-PSMA-I&T and [225Ac]Ac-J591. Ongoing inve

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) in cancer: from mechanism to therapeutic implications.

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) act as critical secondary messengers in various intracellular signaling pathways that regulate cellular proliferation, differentiation, and survival under normal physiological conditions. However, dysregulation of redox signaling-driven by genetic mutations, epigenetic alterations, and posttranscriptional or posttranslational modifications-plays a central role in malignant transformation and cancer progression. Cancer cells typically exhibit elevated basal ROS levels due to increased metabolic activity, mitochondrial dysfunction, and oncogene activation. This mode

The Battlefield of Chemotherapy in Pediatric Cancers.

The survival rate for pediatric cancers has remarkably improved in recent years. Conventional chemotherapy plays a crucial role in treating pediatric cancers, especially in low- and middle-income countries where access to advanced treatments may be limited. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved chemotherapy drugs that can be used in children have expanded, but patients still face numerous side effects from the treatment. In addition, multidrug resistance (MDR) continues to pose a major challenge in improving the survival rates for a significant number of patients. This review focuses

The crosstalk between non-coding RNAs and oxidative stress in cancer progression.

As living standards elevate, cancers are appearing in growing numbers among younger individuals globally and these risks escalate with advancing years. One of the reasons is that instability in the cancer genome reduces the effectiveness of conventional drug treatments and chemotherapy, compared with more targeted therapies. Previous research has discovered non-coding RNAs' crucial role in shaping genetic networks involved in cancer cell growth and invasion through their influence on messenger RNA production or protein binding. Additionally, the interaction between non-coding RNAs and oxidativ

Molecular and cellular mechanisms of aging in hematopoietic stem cells and their niches.

Aging drives the genetic and epigenetic changes that result in a decline in hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) functioning. Such changes lead to aging-related hematopoietic/immune impairments and hematopoietic disorders. Understanding how such changes are initiated and how they progress will help in the development of medications that could improve the quality life for the elderly and to treat and possibly prevent aging-related hematopoietic diseases. Here, we review the most recent advances in research into HSC aging and discuss the role of HSC-intrinsic events, as well as those that relate to the

Additionally, E3 ligases are key regulators of resistance to multiple anticancer strategies, such as chemotherapy, radioth

Development of Targeted Alpha Particle Therapy for Solid Tumors.

Targeted alpha-particle therapy (TAT) aims to selectively deliver radionuclides emitting α-particles (cytotoxic payload) to tumors by chelation to monoclonal antibodies, peptides or small molecules that recognize tumor-associated antigens or cell-surface receptors. Because of the high linear energy transfer (LET) and short range of alpha (α) particles in tissue, cancer cells can be significantly damaged while causing minimal toxicity to surrounding healthy cells. Recent clinical studies have demonstrated the remarkable efficacy of TAT in the treatment of metastatic, castration-resistant prosta
