SIRT1 inhibits mitochondrial hyperfusion associated mito-bulb formation to sensitize oral cancer cells for apoptosis in a mtROS-dependent signalling pathway

open access: yesCell Death and Disease, 2023
SIRT1 (NAD-dependent protein deacetylase sirtuin-1), a class III histone deacetylase acting as a tumor suppressor gene, is downregulated in oral cancer cells.

Colorectal Cancer Stem Cells and Cell Death [PDF]

open access: yesCancers, 2011
Nowadays it is reported that, similarly to other solid tumors, colorectal cancer is sustained by a rare subset of cancer stem–like cells (CSCs), which survive conventional anticancer treatments, thanks to efficient mechanisms allowing escape from apoptosis, triggering tumor recurrence. To improve patient outcomes, conventional anticancer therapies have

Tumor endothelial cell autophagy is a key vascular‐immune checkpoint in melanoma

open access: yesEMBO Molecular Medicine, 2023
Tumor endothelial cells (TECs) actively repress inflammatory responses and maintain an immune‐excluded tumor phenotype. However, the molecular mechanisms that sustain TEC‐mediated immunosuppression remain largely elusive.

Spatially and temporally defined lysosomal leakage facilitates mitotic chromosome segregation

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Lysosomes are intracellular organelles containing degradative enzymes, and leakage of lysosomal contents into the cell is thought to trigger cell death.

Entosis: The emerging face of non-cell-autonomous type IV programmed death

open access: yesBiomedical Journal, 2017
The present review summarizes recent experimental evidences about the existence of the non-cell-autonomous death entosis in physiological and pathophysiological contexts, discusses some aspects of this form of cell death, including morphological ...

Aldehyde Dehydrogenase, a Therapeutic Target in Chordoma: Analysis in 3D Cellular Models

open access: yesCells, 2021
Chordomas are rare, slow-growing tumors of the axial skeleton. These tumors are locally aggressive and refractory to conventional therapies. Radical surgery and radiation remain the first-line treatments.

Modes of Regulated Cell Death in Cancer [PDF]

open access: yesCancer Discovery, 2021
Abstract Cell suicide pathways, termed regulated cell death (RCD), play a critical role in organismal development, homeostasis, and pathogenesis. Here, we provide an overview of key RCD modalities, namely apoptosis, entosis, necroptosis, pyroptosis, and ferroptosis. We explore how various RCD modules

Macrophage biology plays a central role during ionizing radiation-elicited tumor response

open access: yesBiomedical Journal, 2017
Radiation therapy is one of the major therapeutic modalities for most solid tumors. The anti-tumor effect of radiation therapy consists of the direct tumor cell killing, as well as the modulation of tumor microenvironment and the activation of immune ...

ER-mitochondria contact sites; a multifaceted factory for Ca2+ signaling and lipid transport

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Membrane contact sites (MCS) between organelles of eukaryotic cells provide structural integrity and promote organelle homeostasis by facilitating intracellular signaling, exchange of ions, metabolites and lipids and membrane dynamics.

Targeting immunogenic cell death in cancer [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, 2020
Immunogenic cell death (ICD) is a type of cancer cell death triggered by certain chemotherapeutic drugs, oncolytic viruses, physicochemical therapies, photodynamic therapy, and radiotherapy. It involves the activation of the immune system against cancer in immunocompetent hosts.
