Adjuvant Properties of Caffeic Acid in Cancer Treatment.

Caffeic acid (CA) is a polyphenol belonging to the phenylpropanoid family, commonly found in plants and vegetables. It was first identified by Hlasiwetz in 1867 as a breakdown product of caffetannic acid. CA is biosynthesized from the amino acids tyrosine or phenylalanine through specific enzyme-catalyzed reactions. Extensive research since its discovery has revealed various health benefits associated with CA, including its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anticancer properties. These effects are attributed to its ability to modulate several pathways, such as inhibiting NFkB, STAT3, and ERK

Established and Emerging Concepts to Treat Imbalances of Iron Homeostasis in Inflammatory Diseases.

Inflammation, being a hallmark of many chronic diseases, including cancer, inflammatory bowel disease, rheumatoid arthritis, and chronic kidney disease, negatively affects iron homeostasis, leading to iron retention in macrophages of the mononuclear phagocyte system. Functional iron deficiency is the consequence, leading to anemia of inflammation (AI). Iron deficiency, regardless of anemia, has a detrimental impact on quality of life so that treatment is warranted. Therapeutic strategies include (1) resolution of the underlying disease, (2) iron supplementation, and (3) iron redistribution str

Navigating hepatotoxicity of antibody-drug conjugates: from mechanistic insights to clinical and postmarketing evidence.

Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) are rapidly developing targeted cancer therapeutic agents that combine specific monoclonal antibodies with cytotoxic agents. Currently, 17 ADCs are approved for the global market for treating hematological and solid tumors with more than 100 ADCs are in phase III clinical trials. ADC-induced hepatotoxicity is a significant concern with unclear mechanisms, and the incidence of hepatic adverse events (AEs) varies across different ADCs. Most hepatic AEs are moderate; however, some ADCs can cause life threatening or fatal AEs. The management of hepatic AEs is limite

Selinexor in acute myeloid leukemia: therapeutic applications and current challenges.

This article aims to review the current application status and research advancements of selinexor in the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Selinexor, as the first oral selective inhibitor of nuclear export protein Exportin-1 (XPO1), inhibits the abnormal nuclear export of tumor suppressor proteins by blocking XPO1, thereby restoring their activity and exerting antitumor effects. Clinical studies have shown that selinexor monotherapy or combination therapy has demonstrated good anti-leukemia effects in AML, especially in patients with relapsed/refractory AML. In addition, the combinati

Bone Disease in Multiple Myeloma: Biologic and Clinical Implications.

Multiple Myeloma (MM) is a hematologic malignancy characterized by the proliferation of monoclonal plasma cells localized within the bone marrow. Bone disease with associated osteolytic lesions is a hallmark of MM and develops in the majority of MM patients. Approximately half of patients with bone disease will experience skeletal-related events (SREs), such as spinal cord compression and pathologic fractures, which increase the risk of mortality by 20-40%. At the cellular level, bone disease results from a tumor-cell-driven imbalance between osteoclast bone resorption and osteoblast bone form

Epigenetic therapy in myeloproliferative neoplasms: evidence and perspectives.

The classic Philadelphia chromosome-negative myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs), which include polycythaemia vera, essential thrombocythaemia and primary myelofibrosis, originate from a stem cell-derived clonal myeloproliferation that manifests itself with variable haematopoietic cell lineage involvement; they are characterized by a high degree of similarities and the chance to transform each to the other and to evolve into acute leukaemia. Their molecular pathogenesis has been associated with recurrent acquired mutations in janus kinase 2 (JAK2) and myeloproliferative leukemia virus oncogene

Immune reprogramming in the bone marrow microenvironment: a new perspective on the bone immune microenvironment of postmenopausal osteoporosis.

Research on postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMOP), a common bone metabolic disease, has traditionally focused on bone loss and imbalance in bone remodeling. However, with the development of bone immunology, the complex interactions between immune cells and bone cells in the bone marrow microenvironment have gradually been revealed, and "immune reprogramming" is considered a key factor driving the persistent bone loss in PMOP. Current evidence indicates that the postmenopausal bone marrow microenvironment undergoes significant structural and functional changes. These changes are characterized by a

Short-chain fatty acids in the tumor microenvironment: from molecular mechanisms to cancer therapy.

Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), including acetate, propionate, and butyrate, serve as pivotal metabolites within the tumor microenvironment (TME), playing essential roles in modulating tumor progression. Although the biological functions and mechanisms of SCFAs in the TME show some overlap, each SCFA also exerts some distinct regulatory effects on tumors and TME. Notably, even a single SCFA may exhibit pleiotropic effects across different cancer types or under varying conditions within the same malignancy. Consequently, according to the different metabolic microenvironment of patients, precis

Modulating the JAK/STAT pathway with natural products: potential and challenges in cancer therapy.

IL-20RB mediates tumoral response to osteoclastic niches and promotes bone metastasis of lung cancer.

Bone is a common site of metastasis in lung cancer, but the regulatory mechanism remains incompletely understood. Osteoclasts are known to play crucial roles in osteolytic bone metastasis by digesting bone matrix and indirectly enhancing tumor colonization. In this study, we found that IL receptor 20 subunit β (IL-20RB) mediated a direct tumoral response to osteoclasts. Tumoral expression of IL-20RB was associated with bone metastasis of lung cancer, and functionally, IL-20RB promoted metastatic growth of lung cancer cells in bone. Mechanistically, tumor cells induced osteoclasts to secrete th
