Among these, cardiovascular adverse events represent some of the most prevalent and clinically significant complications observed in both conventional chemother

The cGAS-STING pathway in senescence and aging-related diseases: mechanisms and therapeutic opportunities.

The cGAS-STING pathway acts as a critical molecular hub connecting genomic instability with cellular senescence. Functioning as a key regulator of the innate immune system, this pathway detects aberrant cytoplasmic DNA to activate downstream inflammatory responses, thereby playing a pivotal role in aging-related diseases. This review systematically explores the core mechanisms by which the cGAS-STING pathway regulates cellular senescence, emphasizing its role in triggering senescence through the recognition of DNA damage signals (e.g., oxidative stress, telomere dysfunction) and promoting para

Gut-Bone Axis: A Non-Negligible Contributor to Periodontitis.

Periodontitis is a polymicrobial infectious disease characterized by alveolar bone loss. Systemic diseases or local infections, such as diabetes, postmenopausal osteoporosis, obesity, and inflammatory bowel disease, promote the development and progression of periodontitis. Accumulating evidences have revealed the pivotal effects of gut microbiota on bone health via gut-alveolar-bone axis. Gut pathogens or metabolites may translocate to distant alveolar bone via circulation and regulate bone homeostasis. In addition, gut pathogens can induce aberrant gut immune responses and subsequent homing o

Novel roles of PIWI proteins and PIWI-interacting RNAs in human health and diseases.

Non-coding RNA has aroused great research interest recently, they play a wide range of biological functions, such as regulating cell cycle, cell proliferation, and intracellular substance metabolism. Piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) are emerging small non-coding RNAs that are 24-31 nucleotides in length. Previous studies on piRNAs were mainly limited to evaluating the binding to the PIWI protein family to play the biological role. However, recent studies have shed more lights on piRNA functions; aberrant piRNAs play unique roles in many human diseases, including diverse lethal cancers. Therefore

Nucleotide Metabolism in Health and Disease.

Nucleotide metabolism is a fundamental biochemical process, providing the building blocks for DNA and RNA synthesis while driving critical cellular functions like energy transfer, signal transduction, and coenzyme synthesis. The precise regulation of nucleotide de novo synthesis, salvage, and degradation pathways is imperative for maintaining genomic stability and tissue homeostasis. Aberrations in these networks are increasingly recognized as primary drivers in various pathologies; notably, cancer cells exploit metabolic-functional reprogramming to enable rapid proliferation and therapeutic r

Resveratrol Nanoformulations for Cancer Management: A Comprehensive Review of Disease-Specific Strategies and Clinical Translational Barriers.

Cancer remains a leading cause of mortality worldwide, highlighting the need for therapeutic strategies that reduce systemic toxicity and drug resistance. Resveratrol (RES), a natural polyphenolic stilbenoid, possesses antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, pro-apoptotic, anti-metastatic, and chemosensitizing activities.

Targeting MDM2, RAS, and PCNA for cancer targeted therapy: pan-cancer approaches vs. cancer-specific strategies.

Cancer therapy and cancer drug discovery and development have been historically focused on specific cancers (tissue/organ of origin). However, with advances in molecular biology and multi-omics of cancer, there is a trend to develop pan-cancer therapeutic modalities. In targeted therapy, pan-cancer strategies target common molecular alterations across different cancer types and specific cancer strategies are tailored to the unique biological characteristics of individual tumor types. Each approach offers distinct advantages and limitations, and understanding these differences is critical in th

The 8p11 myeloproliferative syndrome: Genotypic and phenotypic classification and targeted therapy.

EMS(8p11 myeloproliferative syndrome, EMS) is an aggressive hematological neoplasm with/without eosinophilia caused by a rearrangement of the FGFR1 gene at 8p11-12. It was found that all cases carry chromosome abnormalities at the molecular level, not only the previously reported chromosome translocation and insertion but also a chromosome inversion. These abnormalities produced 17 FGFR1 fusion genes, of which the most common partner genes are ZNF198 on 13q11-12 and BCR of 22q11.2. The clinical manifestations can develop into AML (acute myeloid leukemia), T-LBL (T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma),

Dissecting the Crosstalk Between Nrf2 and NF-κB Response Pathways in Drug-Induced Toxicity.

Nrf2 and NF-κB are important regulators of the response to oxidative stress and inflammation in the body. Previous pharmacological and genetic studies have confirmed crosstalk between the two. The deficiency of Nrf2 elevates the expression of NF-κB, leading to increased production of inflammatory factors, while NF-κB can affect the expression of downstream target genes by regulating the transcription and activity of Nrf2. At the same time, many therapeutic drug-induced organ toxicities, including hepatotoxicity, nephrotoxicity, cardiotoxicity, pulmonary toxicity, dermal toxicity, and neurotoxi

Biology of stem cell paradox: a double-edged sword-implications for cancer therapy.

This comprehensive review investigates the complex interactions between oncogenesis and stem cells, underscoring the crucial importance of cancer stem cells (CSCs) in the mechanisms of tumorigenesis, metastatic dissemination, and resistance to therapeutic interventions. CSCs constitute a distinct subset within neoplasms, defined by unique characteristics such as the ability to self-renew, the potential to differentiate into various cellular phenotypes, and an inherent resistance to conventional treatment strategies. It is hypothesized that these properties are regulated by a multitude of signa

Tuning epigenetics to enhance cancer virotherapy.

Cancer remains a major global health challenge, driving intensive research into novel therapeutic strategies. Oncolytic viruses (OVs) including herpesviruses, adenoviruses and echoviruses, have emerged as promising agents for cancer treatment, with several achieving regulatory approval. These viruses selectively lyse tumor cells and stimulate antitumor immunity. Nevertheless, their efficacy is constrained by limitations such as neutralization by serum factors and tumor cell resistance. Concurrently, epigenetic inhibitors modulate gene expression to suppress tumor proliferation and reshape immu

Metabolic reprogramming in cancer and senescence.

The rising trend in global cancer incidence has caused widespread concern, one of the main reasons being the aging of the global population. Statistical data show that cancer incidence and mortality rates show a clear upward trend with age. Although there is a commonality between dysregulated nutrient sensing, which is one of the main features of aging, and metabolic reprogramming of tumor cells, the specific regulatory relationship is not clear. This manuscript intends to comprehensively analyze the relationship between senescence and tumor metabolic reprogramming; as well as reveal the impac

Cellular and Molecular Mechanisms Associating Obesity to Bone Loss.

Obesity is an alarming disease that favors the upset of other illnesses and enhances mortality. It is spreading fast worldwide may affect more than 1 billion people by 2030. The imbalance between excessive food ingestion and less energy expenditure leads to pathological adipose tissue expansion, characterized by increased production of proinflammatory mediators with harmful interferences in the whole organism. Bone tissue is one of those target tissues in obesity. Bone is a mineralized connective tissue that is constantly renewed to maintain its mechanical properties. Osteoblasts are responsib

Emerging agents that target signaling pathways to eradicate colorectal cancer stem cells.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) represents the third most commonly diagnosed cancer and the second leading cause of cancer death worldwide. The modern concept of cancer biology indicates that cancer is formed of a small population of cells called cancer stem cells (CSCs), which present both pluripotency and self-renewal properties. These cells are considered responsible for the progression of the disease, recurrence and tumor resistance. Interestingly, some cell signaling pathways participate in CRC survival, proliferation, and self-renewal properties, and most of them are dysregulated in CSCs, includ
