Development of In Vitro and In Planta Strategies for Efficient Production of High‐Value Steviol Glycosides

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Steviol glycosides (SGs) are a group of sweet‐tasting diterpene glycosides found in Stevia rebaudiana. Production of high‐value SGs, Rebaudioside D (Reb D) and Reb M, is limited by inefficient conversion of Reb A to Reb D and stevioside to Reb E.

The Antitumor Immunity and Tumor Responses of Chemotherapy with or without DC-CIK for Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer in China: A Meta-Analysis of 28 Randomized Controlled Trials

open access: yesJournal of Immunology Research, 2018
Objective. DC-CIK therapy included DC-CIK cells and Ag-DC-CIK cells. To further confirm whether DC-CIK reconstructs the antitumor immunity and improves the tumor responses and reveals its optimal usage and combination with chemotherapy, we systematically

Natural Killer Cells in Paediatric Soft Tissue Sarcomas: A Systematic Review

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, Volume 73, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Paediatric soft tissue sarcomas (pSTS) are a rare and heterogeneous group of malignant tumours arising in tissues of mesenchymal origin. The role of natural killer (NK) cells in pSTS remains poorly understood, with evidence fragmented across small preclinical studies and early‐phase clinical trials.

Cinnamaldehyde From Cinnamon as a Food‐Derived Bioactive: Phytochemistry, Anticancer Mechanisms, Bioavailability, Nanoformulation and Safety

open access: yesFood Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 5, September 2026.
Cinnamaldehyde derived from Cinnamomum species exerts multitarget anticancer effects by promoting oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, apoptosis, cell‐cycle arrest, autophagy, and epigenetic changes, and by suppressing mitogen‐activated protein kinase (MAPK), phosphoinositide 3‐kinase/protein kinase B/mechanistic target of rapamycin (PI3K/Akt ...

Disease‐free survival as a surrogate outcome for localized kidney cancer—A systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesCancer, Volume 132, Issue 16, 15 August 2026.
Abstract Background Disease‐free survival (DFS) is commonly used as a primary end point in trials for localized renal cell carcinoma (RCC), although its validity as a surrogate for overall survival (OS) remains uncertain. The objective of this study was to evaluate whether DFS is a reliable surrogate end point for OS in this setting.

Extracellular Vesicles in Acute Myeloid Leukemia: Opportunities and Obstacles for Therapeutic Advancement

open access: yesJournal of Biochemical and Molecular Toxicology, Volume 40, Issue 8, August 2026.
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a disease characterized by uncontrolled proliferation and blocked maturation of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells. Despite progress in its clinical management, many patients continue to relapse or show limited response to standard therapies, emphasizing the need for novel, safe, and more effective targeted ...

Antibody–Drug Conjugates and Peptide–Drug Conjugates: Current Understandings and Future Perspectives

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 8, August 2026.
The graphic summarizes the design principles, intracellular trafficking, clinical progress, challenges, and future directions of antibody–drug conjugates (ADCs) and peptide–drug conjugates (PDCs). ADCs consist of a tumor‐targeting antibody, a chemical linker, and a potent payload, whereas PDCs use peptide ligands to deliver cytotoxic, radionuclide, or ...
