The role of glucose metabolism reprogramming and its targeted therapeutic agents in inflammation-related diseases / 药学学报

Cells undergo glucose metabolism reprogramming under the influence of the inflammatory microenvironment, changing their primary mode of energy supply from oxidative phosphorylation to aerobic glycolysis. This process is involved in all stages of inflammation-related diseases development. Glucose metabolism reprogramming not only changes the metabolic pattern of individual cells, but also disrupts the metabolic homeostasis of the body microenvironment, which further promotes aerobic glycolysis and provides favourable conditions for the malignant progression of inflammation-related diseases. The metabolic enzymes, transporter proteins, and metabolites of aerobic glycolysis are all key signalling molecules, and drugs can inhibit aerobic glycolysis by targeting these specific key molecules to exert therapeutic effects. This paper reviews the impact of glucose metabolism reprogramming on the development of inflammation-related diseases such as inflammation-related tumours, rheumatoid arthritis and Alzheimer's disease, and the therapeutic effects of drugs targeting glucose metabolism reprogramming on these diseases.

Research progress of biological agents in thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy / 国际眼科杂志(Guoji Yanke Zazhi)

Thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy(TAO)is a rare organ-specific autoimmune disease with an unclear pathogenesis. At present, the treatment still relies mainly on glucocorticoids and traditional immunosuppressants. However, some patients respond poorly to these drugs and experience treatment-related adverse reactions, highlighting the urgent need for novel drugs for TAO treatment. In recent years, with the deepening of research on the pathogenesis of TAO, a multitude of biologics targeting specific targets have emerged. Among them, teprotumumab, which targets the insulin-like growth factor-I receptor(IGF-IR), has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of TAO, and several other biologics are currently in clinical trials. This review provides the latest reference for the clinical prevention, treatment, and research of TAO by summarizing the current clinical research status of biologics targeting IGF-IR, neonatal Fc receptor(FcRn), thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor(TSHR), B cells, cytokines, and other biological agents in TAO and analyzing their impact on clinical treatment and future research trends.

Effects of hypoxia-inducible factors on tumor mesenchymal cells: a review / 预防医学

@#Hypoxia is the most common tumor microenvironment caused by rapid proliferation of tumor cells, and hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) is the main transcription factor for tumor cells to adapt to hypoxia. Current research has found that HIF can interact with a variety of mesenchymal cells such as fibroblasts, endothelial cells and immune cells in the tumor microenvironment, leading to the transcription and expression of target genes in response to hypoxia, which ultimately promotes tumor angiogenesis, and induces physiological changes such as migration, invasion, and immune escape of tumor cells. However, the signaling pathways involved in the HIF regulatory mechanism are complex, and the mechanism of HIF in the tumor microenvironment need to be further investigated, also most HIF inhibitors are still in the preclinical research stage. This paper reviews the research progress on the effects of HIF on tumor mesenchymal stromal cells to provide a theoretical basis for the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of tumors targeting HIF.

Emerging options of targeted therapies and immunotherapies have shifted the management of lung cancer to a more personalized treatment approach, significantly influencing the clinical course and outcome of the disease. At present, molecular biomarkers are becoming a powerful tool for diagnosing cancer, predicting treatment response outcomes, and assessing prognosis. In this review, we summarized the biomarkers relevant to the diagnosis, prediction, and prognosis of NSCLC as well as promising novel predictive biomarkers in the future.

Targeted biotherapy for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease / 中国临床药理学与治疗学

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is the most common chronic airway disease. The current status of treatment based mainly on bronchodilators and ICS is not sufficient for all of COPD patients. Various studies have attempted to use biologics targeting specific cytokines and their receptors in COPD patients to alleviate respiratory symptoms or reduce the risk of acute exacerbations. However, they failed to bring significant clinical benefits. More studies are needed to further determine the efficacy of targeted biotherapy for COPD.

Research progress of chemotherapy-related diarrhea induced by molecularly targeted anti-tumor drugs / 中国药房

Diarrhea caused by chemotherapy is called chemotherapy-related diarrhea （CRD）. CRD can lead to reduced treatment effectiveness and compliance， affect the long-term outcome of tumor patients， and can be life-threatening in severe cases. In addition to conventional chemotherapy drugs， many molecularly targeted drugs are also associated with CRD， including small molecule epidermal growth factor receptor （EGFR） inhibitors， anti-EGFR monoclonal antibodies， phosphoinositide 3-kinase inhibitors， small molecule inhibitors of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor， BCR-ABL1 and KIT inhibitors， human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 target inhibitors， cyclin-dependent protein kinase inhibitors， antibody-drug conjugates and other molecularly targeted drugs. The occurrence mechanism may be related to the intestinal mucosal injury or enteritis caused by molecularly targeted drugs. The clinical manifestations are increased stool frequency and/or loose imposition， and patients are often associated with excess hyperproduction and/or colic. The incidence of CRD varies with different drugs. Great importance should be attached to collecting medical history and differential diagnosis， actively intervening and conducting dynamic evaluation， strengthening patient education， and timely detecting and preventing the occurrence of intestinal toxicity.

Advances in molecular-targeted therapy for unresectable pancreatic cancer / 临床肝胆病杂志

Pancreatic cancer is one of the most prevalent malignant tumors of the digestive system， and its incidence and mortality rates are increasing year by year. Most patients with pancreatic cancer are unable to receive surgery due to the advanced stage. Although chemotherapy regimens based on gemcitabine and fluorouracil have prolonged the survival time of patients to some extent， some patients cannot tolerate chemotherapy and hence lose the opportunity for treatment. With the advent of the era of precision medicine， molecular-targeted therapy has exhibited an excellent therapeutic efficacy and has thus become one of the most important treatment techniques for tumors； however， due to the high heterogeneity of pancreatic cancer and its complicated tumor microenvironment， molecular-targeted therapy for pancreatic cancer has not achieved notable results. Therefore， it is imperative to seek new therapeutic targets and medications to overcome this issue. This article reviews the latest advances in the research on molecular-targeted therapy for unresectable pancreatic cancer based on common molecular targets and tumor immunity-related therapeutic targets， in order to provide new treatment strategies for patients with pancreatic cancer.

Fanconi Anemia: Exploration of DNA Repair Pathways from Genetic Diseases to Cancer and Prospects for Treatment / 肿瘤防治研究

Fanconi anemia (FA) is an inheritable disorder that presents with bone marrow failure, developmental anomalies, and an increased susceptibility to cancer. The etiology of this condition stems from a genetic mutation that disrupts the proper repair of interstrand DNA cross-links (ICLs). The resultant dysregulation of the DNA damage response mechanism can induce genomic instability, thereby elevating the mutation rates and the likelihood of developing cancer. The FA pathway assumes a pivotal role in safeguarding genome stability through its involvement in the repair of DNA cross-links and the maintenance of overall genomic integrity. A mutation in the germ line of any of the genes responsible for encoding the FA protein results in the development of FA. The prevalence of aberrant FA gene expression in somatic cancer, coupled with the identification of a connection between FA pathway activation and resistance to chemotherapy, has solidified the correlation between the FA pathway and cancer. Consequently, targeted therapies that exploit FA pathway gene abnormalities are being progressively developed and implemented. This review critically examines the involvement of the FA protein in the repair of ICLs, the regulation of the FA signaling network, and its implications in cancer pathogenesis and prognosis. Additionally, it explores the potential utility of small-molecule inhibitors that target the FA pathway.

Progress of BRAF Gene Alteration in Non-small Cell Lung Cancer / 中国肺癌杂志

V-Raf murine sarcoma viral oncogene homolog B (BRAF) alteration is one of the most essential driver genes of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). BRAF encodes serine/threonine protein kinases, and its mutations typically lead to protein compositional activation, thereby activating the mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MEK) signaling pathway. A promising new approach for the treatment of mutated BRAF and/or downstream MEK may provide customized treatment opportunities for BRAF driven NSCLC patients. However, combination therapy is necessary to overcome the difficulties such as short duration of benefit, poor therapeutic effect of non-V600 BRAF mutations and susceptibility to drug resistance. This article reviewed the progress in structural characteristics, related signaling pathways, mutation types of BRAF gene, and the clinical pathological relationship between BRAF mutations and NSCLC, as well as the therapy, in order to provide more evidences for clinical doctors to make treatment decisions.

Research Progress of Granulocytic Myeloid-derived Suppressor Cells in Non-small Cell Lung Cancer / 中国肺癌杂志

Granulocytic myeloid-derived suppressor cells (G-MDSCs) are one of the main subgroups of MDSCs, which are widely enriched in most cancers. It can inhibit the killing function of T-lymphocyte through the expression of arginase-1 (Arg-1) and reactive oxygen species (ROS), reshape the tumor immune microenvironment, and promote the occurrence and development of tumors. In recent years, more and more studies have found that G-MDSCs are significantly correlated with the prognosis and immunotherapy efficacy of patients with non-small cell lung cancer, and the use of drugs specifically targeting the recruitment, differentiation and function of G-MDSCs can effectively inhibit tumor progression. This article reviews the immunosuppressive effect of G-MDSCs in non-small cell lung cancer and the progress of related pathway targeting drugs.

A molecular approach to triple-negative breast cancer: targeting the Notch signaling pathway

ABSTRACT Introduction Triple-negative breast cancer is an aggressive subtype of breast cancer characterized by the absence of estrogen receptor, progesterone receptor, and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 expression. This phenotype renders triple-negative breast cancer cells refractory to conventional therapies, resulting in poor clinical outcomes and an urgent need for novel therapeutic approaches. Recent studies have implicated dysregulation of the Notch receptor signaling pathway in the development and progression of triple-negative breast cancer. Objective This study aimed to conduct a comprehensive literature review to identify potential therapeutic targets of the Notch pathway. Our analysis focused on the upstream and downstream components of this pathway to identify potential therapeutic targets. Results Modulating the Notch signaling pathway may represent a promising therapeutic strategy to treat triple-negative breast cancer. Several potential therapeutic targets within this pathway are in the early stages of development, including upstream (such as Notch ligands) and downstream (including specific molecules involved in triple-negative breast cancer growth). These targets represent potential avenues for therapeutic intervention in triple-negative breast cancer. Comments Additional research specifically addressing issues related to toxicity and improving drug delivery methods is critical for the successful translation of these potential therapeutic targets into effective treatments for patients with triple-negative breast cancer.

Prognostic significance of ?mmunhistochemical axl expression in pancreas ductal adenocarcinomas

Introduction and Aim: Pancreas Ductal Adenocarcinomas (PDACs) are among the leading causes of cancer-related death. Tyrosine kinase receptors (TKRs) are responsible for cell plasticity, chemoresistance, immunosuppression and metastasis potential. Axl is a receptor of the TKR family, and it has come to the fore in cancer treatment in the last decade. This study aimed to investigate the relationship of immunohistochemical Axl expression with histological features and its prognostic importance in PDACs. Materials and Methods: Fifty-three patients who were operated on for PDAC between 2006-2017 were evaluated retrospectively. Features of tumors; size, lymphovascular invasion (LVI), perineural invasion (PNI), resection margin (RM), lymph node metastasis (LNM), differentiation, tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte, stage and overall survival were recorded. Immunohistochemically, membranous and or cytoplasmic staining was considered positive for Axl. Statistically, Pearson Chi-Square, Cox regression and Kaplan Mayer tests were used in the SPSS 21.0 program. Results: Axl was positive in 28 patients (52.8%). Axl positivity was found to be associated with the presence of LVI (P = 0.009) and LNM (P = 0.002) and was an independent prognostic factor in short survival (P = 0.006). Conclusion: It was found that increased expression of Axl, which is known to increase EMT-mediated metastasis in carcinogenesis, may be an indicator of local spread and poor prognosis in PDAC patients. In this respect, it can be promising as a targeted molecule in PDAC patient's individualized treatments.

Early response to chemotherapy in children with Langerhans cell histiocytosis predicts long-term disease-free survival

Background: Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a rare clonal malignancy of the monocyte-macrophage system. Patients with lesions in 搑isk organs� have significantly higher risk of mortality than patients with lesions limited to 搉on-risk� sites. The influence of early response to therapy on long-term survival in this heterogeneous multi-system disease was analyzed. Methods: During a 7-year period, we retrospectively analyzed the findings in 24 consecutive patients who required systemic chemotherapy for LCH [single system with multifocal bone involvement and multisystem involvement with or without risk organ (RO) involvement]. All patients were started on vinblastine and prednisolone. Progressive disease was treated with salvage protocols or targeted therapy. Positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT)/conventional CT based response assessment was performed at week 6 of chemotherapy, and if needed after week 12 of chemotherapy. Results: MFO bone, MS ROneg, and MS ROpos LCH was observed in 3, 4, and 17 patients, respectively. Age range of patients varied from 1 month�years (median = 18 months). The EFS and OS were 100% and 100% for MFO bone, 50% and 100%, respectively, for MS ROneg and 35% and 52%, respectively, for MS ROpos. OS was 93% and 100% for CR attained at 6 and 12 weeks respectively regardless of the risk status (P < 0.01). Conclusion: Rapid early response, that is, complete remission at 6 and 12 weeks was associated with significantly improved overall survival. In slow responders, early salvage with alternative regimens or targeted therapy may result in better outcomes

En el análisis ajustado, las DME-b/sd se asociaron a mayor riesgo de presentar al menos un EA (HR 1,82, IC 95% 1,64-1,96). De igual manera, la mayor edad, el mayor tiempo de evolución, el antecedente de enfermedad pulmonar obstructiva crónica, el diagnóstico de lupus eritematoso sistémico y el uso de corticoides se asociaron a mayor riesgo de EA. Conclusiones: la incidencia de EA fue significativamente superior durante los ciclos de tratamientos que incluían DME-b/sd.

Introduction: knowing the efficacy and safety of the drugs currently available for the treatment of rheumatic diseases is very important when making objective and individualized therapeutic decisions in daily medical consultation. Likewise, real-life data extends the knowledge revealed by clinical trials. Objectives: to describe the reported adverse events (AEs), estimate their frequency and identify factors associated to them. Materials and methods: BIOBADASAR data were used, which is a voluntary, prospective follow-up registry of AEs of biological and synthetic treatments in patients with immune-mediated rheumatic diseases. Patients are followed until death, loss of followup, or withdrawal of informed consent. To carry out this analysis, the data collected up to January 31, 2023 was extracted. Results: a total of 6253 patients were included, who contributed with 9533 treatment periods, including 3647 (38.3%) periods without b/ts-DMARDs and 5886 (61.7%) with b/ts-DMARDs. Among the latter, the most used were TNF inhibitors and abatacept. A total of 5890 AEs were reported in a total of 2701 treatments (844 and 1857 without and with b/ts-DMARDs, respectively), with an incidence of 53.9 events per 1000 patients/ year (95% CI 51.9-55.9). It was higher during the periods with b/ts-DMARDs (71.1 events per 1000 patients/year, 95% CI 70.7-77.5 vs 33.7, 95% CI 31.5-36.1, p<0.001). Infections, particularly those of the upper respiratory tract, were the most frequent AEs in both groups. 10.9% were severe and 1.1% were associated with the death of the patient. 18.7% of the periods with b/ts-DMARDs were discontinued due to an AE, significantly higher than that reported in the other group (11.5%; p<0.001). In the adjusted analysis, b/ts-DMARDs were associated with a higher risk of presenting at least one AE (HR 1.82, 95% CI 1.64-1.96). Similarly, older age, longer evolution time, history of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, diagnosis of systemic lupus erythematosus, and use of corticosteroids were associated with a higher risk of AE. Conclusions: the incidence of AEs was significantly higher during those treatment periods that included DME-b/sd.

Biological Functions of CD24 in Malignant Tumor and its Application as a Novel Anti-tumor Target / 中国生物化学与分子生物学报

CD24 is a highly glycosylated protein that is linked to the plasma membrane via a glycosylphosphatidylinositol anchor. As a universally expressed protein on immune cells, CD24 is also overexpressed in nearly 70% of human cancers including hepatocellular carcinoma, lung cancer and bladder cancer et al. Studies revealed that CD24 is involved in regulating cell proliferation, migration and invasion in cancer cells by interacting with P-selectin, activating Wnt and MAPK signaling pathway or other signaling molecules. Therefore, CD24-targeted siRNA or antibody has a great potential to exert anti-tumor effects by blocking the interaction. There are currently several agents or regiments targeting CD24 for the treatment of patients with various kinds of cancers that are undergoing assessment in the preclinical study at present. Recent studies revealed that CD24 was able to interact with the inhibitory receptor sialic-acid-binding Ig-like lectin 10 (Siglec-10), which located on the surface of macrophages, to compose a novel immune checkpoint. The binding of CD24 to Siglec-10 elicits an inhibitory signaling cascade, limits macrophage phagocytosis, evades immune surveillance, and promotes tumor growth, which suggested that CD24 may be a potential target in anti-tumor immunotherapy. In this review, we introduced the structure and function of CD24 and its role in cancer progression and anti-tumor immunity. Moreover, the progression in developing novel anti-cancer drugs or treatment strategies with the target of CD24 was summarized, which aims to provide a new insight in CD24-targeting therapy.

This subtype of breast cancer is highly invasive and has a very poor prognosis. With the development of anti - HER2 targeted therapy, the prognosis of these patients has been improved. However, some patients have poor response to the anti-HER2 therapy. Therefore, it is necessary to select biomarkers that can predict the therapeutic effect for improving the efficacy of these patients. This article describes the research progress of HER2 positive biomarkers for breast cancer, focusing on biomarkers related to the efficacy of targeted therapy, in order to provide some reference for future clinical optimization of targeted therapy.

Mechanisms of endocrine-resistance and therapeutic breakthroughs in hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer / 中国临床药理学与治疗学

Breast cancers that are positive for hormone receptor but negative for human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (abbreviated as HR+/HER2-) account for approximately 60% of total cases. Targeting estrogen signaling is one of the most important therapeutic strategies for HR+/HER2- breast cancer. However, the management of endocrine-resistant HR+/HER2- breast cancer remains a difficult issue in clinical practice. Previous multi-omic analysis and translational research have identified the mechanisms underlying endocrine-resistance including genomic alteration and abnormal epigenetic modification. To overcome endocrine-resistance, we have established a comprehensive and coherent therapeutic strategy. In addition, several novel therapies have shown promising efficacy in previous clinical trials and will emerge as alternative options for targeting endocrine-resistant HR+/HER2- breast cancer. In this review, we will introduce the mechanisms of endocrine-resistance, explain the current therapeutic strategy for endocrine-resistant HR +/HER2 - breast cancer and discuss the possible targeted therapies in the future.
