Emerging role of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 in the mechanism of action and resistance to anticancer therapies [PDF]

, 2019
Nuclear factor E2-related factor 2 (NRF2), a transcription factor, is a master regulator of an array of genes related to oxidative and electrophilic stress that promote and maintain redox homeostasis. NRF2 function is well studied in in vitro, animal and

DNA methylation characteristics associated with chemotherapy resistance in epithelial ovarian cancer

Heliyon
Objective: The high mortality rate of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is often attributed to the frequent development of chemoresistance. DNA methylation is a predictive biomarker for chemoresistance. Methods: This study utilized DNA methylation profiles

The Emerging Role of Exosomes in Cancer Chemoresistance

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Chemoresistance is an impending challenge in cancer treatment. In recent years, exosomes, a subtype of extracellular vesicles with a diameter of 40–150 nm in bloodstream and other bio-fluids, have attracted increasing interest. Exosomes contain proteins,

MiRNA-145 increases therapeutic sensibility to gemcitabine treatment of pancreatic adenocarcinoma cells. [PDF]

, 2016
Pancreatic adenocarcinoma is one of the most leading causes of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Although recent advances provide various treatment options, pancreatic adenocarcinoma has poor prognosis due to its late diagnosis and ineffective therapeutic

The histological growth patterns in liver metastases from colorectal cancer display differences in lymphoid, myeloid, and mesenchymal cells

MedComm
Colorectal liver metastases grow following different histologic growth patterns (HGPs), classified as desmoplastic and nondesmoplastic (dHGP, non‐dHGP), being the latter associated with worst prognosis.

C/EBPβ-1 promotes transformation and chemoresistance in Ewing sarcoma cells. [PDF]

, 2017
CEBPB copy number gain in Ewing sarcoma was previously shown to be associated with worse clinical outcome compared to tumors with normal CEBPB copy number, although the mechanism was not characterized.

TRAIL‐PEG‐Apt‐PLGA nanosystem as an aptamer‐targeted drug delivery system potential for triple‐negative breast cancer therapy using in vivo mouse model

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Aptamers are used both therapeutically and as targeting agents in cancer treatment. We developed an aptamer‐targeted PLGA–TRAIL nanosystem that exhibited superior therapeutic efficacy in NOD/SCID breast cancer models. This nanosystem represents a novel biotechnological drug candidate for suppressing resistance development in breast cancer.
