Targeting ADAR1 Restores Interferon Signaling and Enhances Immunotherapy Response in Multiple Myeloma.

Multiple myeloma (MM) remains an incurable hematological malignancy in which tumor-intrinsic immune evasion limits the efficacy of immunotherapy. Here, we identify the RNA editing enzyme ADAR1 as a key regulator of innate immune suppression in MM. Integrative analyses of bulk and single-cell transcriptomic datasets, together with clinical validation, demonstrated that ADAR1 is upregulated in malignant plasma cells and is associated with adverse clinical outcomes and reduced CD8+ T-cell infiltration. Mechanistically, ADAR1 knockdown increased the association of endogenous dsRNA with melanoma di

The impacts of diagnosis-intervention packet payment on inpatient medical costs for hematologic malignancies and solid tumors: evidence from a retrospective study in China.

Data were collected, organized, and analyzed to compare differe

Metabolic crosstalk between stromal and malignant cells in the bone marrow niche.

Bone marrow is the primary site of blood cell production in adults and serves as the source of osteoblasts and osteoclasts that maintain bone homeostasis. The medullary microenvironment is also involved in malignancy, providing a fertile soil for the growth of blood cancers or solid tumors metastasizing to bone. The cellular composition of the bone marrow is highly complex, consisting of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells, maturing blood cells, skeletal stem cells, osteoblasts, mesenchymal stromal cells, adipocytes, endothelial cells, lymphatic endothelial cells, perivascular cells, and n

Coming of Age for Autotaxin and Lysophosphatidate Signaling: Clinical Applications for Preventing, Detecting and Targeting Tumor-Promoting Inflammation.

A quarter-century after the discovery of autotaxin in cell culture, the autotaxin-lysophosphatidate (LPA)-lipid phosphate phosphatase axis is now a promising clinical target for treating chronic inflammatory conditions, mitigating fibrosis progression, and improving the efficacy of existing cancer chemotherapies and radiotherapy. Nearly half of the literature on this axis has been published during the last five years. In cancer biology, LPA signaling is increasingly being recognized as a central mediator of the progression of chronic inflammation in the establishment of a tumor microenvironmen

Research on potential key genes and novel regulatory markers in essential thrombocythemia (ET) is still limited.MethodsDownloading array profiles from the Gene Expression Omnibus database, we identified the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) through comprehensive bioinformatic analysis. GO, and REACTOME pathway enrichment analysis was used to predict the potential functions of DEGs. Besides, constructing a protein-protein interaction (P

Ixazomib, pomalidomide and dexamethasone in triple-class exposed multiple myeloma patients - a phase II study.

Multi-class upfront regimens for multiple myeloma (MM) have improved outcomes, yet many patients become either triple-class exposed (TCE) or refractory (TCR) early in their disease course. This is a phase II, investigator initiated, open-label, single-arm, prospective, multicenter study evaluating all-oral Ixazomib-pomalidomide- dexamethasone (IPd) regimen for TCE RRMM patients. Sixty-one patients were enrolled between March 1st 2021 and March 17th 2024. The median age was 74 (range: 53-89) years; 25 (41%) were ≥75 years old. Fiftyseven percent had high-risk cytogenetics (t(4;14), t(14;16), +1

Targeting the ROCK2/UBA52/DRP1 axis enhances ferroptosis and overcomes pemigatinib resistance in Cholangiocarcinoma.

Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is a highly aggressive cancer that arises from the bile duct and has an extremely poor prognosis. Pemigatinib is the only Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved CCA-targeted drug. The CCA treatment options are insufficient considering its poor prognosis and increasing morbidity. Recently, Rho-associated coiled-coil containing protein kinase 2 (ROCK2) has been reported to promote resistance to chemotherapy. In this study, we investigated the role that ROCK2 plays in the development of resistance of CCA cells to Pemigatinib. Here, we developed Pemigatinib-resistant

Exploring the Emerging Association Between Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors and Thrombosis.

Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have revolutionized cancer treatment, but their association with thrombosis presents significant clinical challenges. Patients with cancer already exhibit elevated risks for venous thromboembolism and arterial thrombosis, with treatment modalities like chemotherapy further exacerbating this risk. Emerging evidence suggests that ICIs contribute to thrombotic events through multifactorial mechanisms, including immune dysregulation, T cell activation, endothelial dysfunction, elevated tissue factor expression, and impaired fibrinolysis. Additional risk factors

Cancer Prevalence Projections in Japan and Decomposition Analysis of Changes in Cancer Burden, 2020-2050: A Statistical Modeling Study.

BACKGROUND: We provide comprehensive sex-stratified projections of cancer prevalence for 22 cancer sites in Japan from 2020 to 2050. METHODS: Using a scenario-based approach, we projected cancer prevalence by combining projected incidence cases and survival probabilities. Age-specific incidences were forecasted using age-period-cohort models, while survival rates were estimated using a period-analysis approach and multiple parametric survival models. To understand changes in cancer prevalence, decomposition analysis was conducted, assessing the contributions of incidence, survival, and popula

Interleukin-6: obstacles to targeting a complex cytokine in critical illness.

Circulating concentrations of the pleiotropic cytokine interleukin-6 (IL-6) are known to be increased in pro-inflammatory critical care syndromes, such as sepsis and acute respiratory distress syndrome. Elevations in serum IL-6 concentrations in patients with severe COVID-19 have led to renewed interest in the cytokine as a therapeutic target. However, although the pro-inflammatory properties of IL-6 are widely known, the cytokine also has a series of important physiological and anti-inflammatory functions. An adequate understanding of the complex processes by which IL-6 signalling occurs is c

The GH-IGF-SST system in hepatocellular carcinoma: biological and molecular pathogenetic mechanisms and therapeutic targets.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the sixth most common malignancy worldwide. Different signalling pathways have been identified to be implicated in the pathogenesis of HCC; among these, GH, IGF and somatostatin (SST) pathways have emerged as some of the major pathways implicated in the development of HCC. Physiologically, GH-IGF-SST system plays a crucial role in liver growth and development since GH induces IGF1 and IGF2 secretion and the expression of their receptors, involved in hepatocytes cell proliferation, differentiation and metabolism. On the other hand, somatostatin receptors (SSTRs

From Sjögren syndrome to Sjögren disease: rethinking classification and diagnostic complexity.

Sjögren syndrome (SS), traditionally regarded as a sicca-predominant condition, is now recognized as a systemic autoimmune disease characterized by type I interferon activation, B-cell hyperactivity, and periepithelial lymphocytic infiltration. This conceptual shift has prompted changes in terminology, with "SS" increasingly replaced by "Sjögren disease (SjD)" and "secondary SS" by "associated SjD," reflecting the concept of polyautoimmunity and ensuring equal clinical standing. In this review, we trace the historical evolution of SS classification criteria and examine their limitations in rea

Chemotherapy-induced acute kidney injury: epidemiology, pathophysiology, and therapeutic approaches.

Despite significant advancements in oncology, conventional chemotherapy remains the primary treatment for diverse malignancies. Acute kidney injury (AKI) stands out as one of the most prevalent and severe adverse effects associated with these cytotoxic agents. While platinum compounds are well-known for their nephrotoxic potential, other drugs including antimetabolites, alkylating agents, and antitumor antibiotics are also associated. The onset of AKI poses substantial risks, including heightened morbidity and mortality rates, prolonged hospital stays, treatment interruptions, and the need for

Undifferentiated Intimal Sarcoma of the Large Abdominal Arteries Presenting As Acute Mesenteric Ischemia: A Case Report.

Primary malignant tumors of the large arteries are exceedingly rare and diagnostically challenging. Undifferentiated intimal sarcomas and leiomyosarcomas are the major types encountered. Intimal sarcomas are highly aggressive neoplasms characterized by intraluminal growth and a tendency to mimic thromboembolic disease, often resulting in delayed diagnosis and poor outcomes. We report the case of a 63-year-old man who presented with progressive abdominal pain and weight loss and rapidly developed acute mesenteric ischemia due to extensive intraluminal obstruction of the descending and abdominal
