Mechanism-based prediction of drug synergy via network controllability analysis of therapeutic pathways in intractable diseases.

Identifying effective drug combinations for multidrug therapies in intractable diseases remains challenging, and drug synergy depends on regulatory mechanisms. Herein, we introduce a mechanistic framework that redefines drug combination strategies into two distinct synergy paradigms-"boost" and "complement"-and present a network-based method called SYNERGIE to predict associated combinations across diseases. For diseases lacking known therapeutic targets, we introduced network controllability analysis to estimate therapeutic pathways and target molecules. SYNERGIE integrates drug-disease and d

Cellular Senescence and Aging: Mechanisms, Disease Convergence, and Therapeutic Frontiers.

Cellular senescence, a stress-induced, irreversible cell cycle arrest coupled with a proinflammatory secretory phenotype, has emerged as both a central driver of aging and a tractable therapeutic target. Although acute senescence contributes beneficially to tumor suppression and wound healing, chronic accumulation of senescent cells sustains systemic inflammaging and accelerates organ dysfunction. This review synthesizes current progress in aging biology into a unified mechanistic and translational framework. We first examine how primary aging hallmarks, such as genomic instability and epigene

Current strategies for armoring chimeric antigen receptor T-cells to overcome barriers of the solid tumor microenvironment.

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy is a transformative immunotherapeutic approach, yet its application in solid tumors is hindered by the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME). The TME restricts T-cell trafficking, impairs effector functions, and promotes exhaustion through soluble factors, metabolic stress, and suppressive cell populations. Recent efforts to enhance CAR T-cell efficacy have focused on armoring strategies that 'reprogram' and 'boost' T-cell responses within the TME. These include engineered expression of dominant-negative receptors or cytokine-releasing co

Human Cancers Derived from Either Genetic or Lifestyle Factors Are Initiated by Impaired Estrogen Signaling.

BackgroundGenetic studies have found that a germline BRCA1 gene mutation is the origin of highly increased cancer risk. Clinical studies have suggested that increased cancer risk in type-2 diabetes may be attributed to unhealthy lifestyle factors and bad habits.PurposePatients with either BRCA1 gene mutation or type-2 diabetes similarly exhibit increased cancer risk, insulin resistance, and fertility disorders. It was suggested that these three alterations derive from a common genomic failure, and its recognition may shed light on the unsolved secret of cancer.Results(1) Germline mutations on

CAR T-cell therapy in autoimmune diseases: a promising frontier on the horizon.

This emphasizes the urgent need for more targeted therapies that offer long-term efficacy and curative potential. Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy presents a promising option by specifically targeting and eliminating autoreactive B cells, with the potential to reset the patient's immune system and promote long-term immune balance. Originally developed for treating hematologic malignancies, wher

An overview of multiple myeloma: A monoclonal plasma cell malignancy's diagnosis, management, and treatment modalities.

Multiple Myeloma (MM) is a plasma cell cancer with high mortality and morbidity rates. Its incidence rate has increased by 143% since 1975. Adipokines, cytokines, chemokines, and genetic variations influence the development and progression of MM. Chromosomal translocations cause mutations associated with MM. The pathogenesis of MM is complicated by novel issues like miRNAs, RANKL, Wnt/DKK1, Wnt, and OPG. Conventional diagnosis methods include bone marrow biopsy, sPEP or uPEP, sIFE and uIFE, and sFLC assay, along with advanced techniques such as FISH, SNPA, and gene expression technologies. A n
