Novel therapies emerging in oncology to target the TGF-β pathway.

The TGF-β signaling pathway governs key cellular processes under physiologic conditions and is deregulated in many pathologies, including cancer. TGF-β is a multifunctional cytokine that acts in a cell- and context-dependent manner as a tumor promoter or tumor suppressor. As a tumor promoter, the TGF-β pathway enhances cell proliferation, migratory invasion, metastatic spread within the tumor microenvironment and suppresses immunosurveillance. Collectively, the pleiotropic nature of TGF-β signaling contributes to drug resistance, tumor escape and undermines clinical response to therapy. Based

Nucleo-cytoplasmic transport as a therapeutic target of cancer.

Shuttling of specific proteins out of the nucleus is essential for the regulation of the cell cycle and proliferation of both normal and malignant tissues. Dysregulation of this fundamental process may affect many other important cellular processes such as tumor growth, inflammatory response, cell cycle, and apoptosis. It is known that XPO1 (Exportin-1/Chromosome Region Maintenance 1/CRM1) is the main mediator of nuclear export in many cell types. Nuclear proteins exported to the cytoplasm by XPO1 include the drug targets topoisomerase IIα (topo IIα) and BCR-ABL and tumor suppressor proteins s

Metastatic primary duodenal adeno-carcinoma responding to metronomic oral cyclophosphamide chemotherapy.

Primary adenocarcinoma of duodenum is a very rare tumour with a prevalence of only 0.3 to 1% of among all the tumours of gastrointestinal tracts. Localised tumours, if resected have good prognosis but those with metastates entails a poor prognosis, where generally palliation may be the only feasible option. Low dose continous cytotoxic treatment or metronomic chemotherapy prevents neoangiogenesis and chemoresistance thereby, provides excellent symptom relief and palliation in many advanced heavily pretreated solid malignancies. It offers as an affordable, less toxic therapy with moderate to go

The purpose of this study was to investigate the expression of targets in gynecologic malignancies in order to predict the selection of targets for the development of antibody-drug conjugates.MethodsIn this article, we identified existing ADCs and their targets through clinical trial databases and public genomic datasets, performed differential analysis of tumor antigen targets (TATs) expression between tumor and normal tissues, and evaluated the necessity of the targets for

Identification of new candidate biomarkers to support doxorubicin treatments in canine cancer patients.

BackgroundBoth human and veterinary cancer chemotherapy are undergoing a paradigm shift from a "one size fits all" approach to more personalized, patient-oriented treatment strategies. Personalized chemotherapy is dependent on the identification and validation of biomarkers that can predict treatment outcome and/or risk of toxicity. Many cytotoxic chemotherapy agents, including doxorubicin, base their mechanism of action by interaction with DNA and disruption of normal cellular processes. We developed a high-resolution/accurate-mass liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry DNA screening approac

The Role of Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress and Unfolded Protein Response in Gynecological Cancers: A Narrative Review.

The unfolded protein response (UPR) mediated by IRE1/XBP1, PERK/eIF2α/ATF4, and ATF6/GRP78 governs tumor adaptation to hypoxia, nutrient deprivation, and therapy stress. In gynecologic malignancies (ovarian, endometrial, cervical), persistent endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-stress signaling underlies proliferation, invasion, immune evasion, and treatment resistance but also creates druggable liabilities. We conducted a narrative review of peer-reviewed literature indexed in MEDLINE (PubMed), Embase, Scopus, and Web of Science from inception through 13 September 2025. Search terms combined ER-stress

New Progress in Improving the Delivery Methods of Bisphosphonates in the Treatment of Bone Tumors.

Bone tumors are tumors that occur in the bone or its accessory tissues, including primary tumors and metastatic tumors. The main mechanism of bisphosphonate is to inhibit the resorption of destructive bone, inhibit the activity of osteoclasts and reduce the concentration of blood calcium. Therefore, bisphosphonates can be used for malignant hypercalcaemia, pain caused by osteolytic bone metastasis, prevention of osteolytic bone metastasis, multiple myeloma osteopathy, improving radiosensitivity and so on. However, the traditional administration of bisphosphonates can cause a series of adverse
