Comprehensive landscape of cell death mechanisms: from molecular cross-talk to therapeutic innovation in oncology [PDF]
Cell death, or programmed cellular termination, represents a fundamental biological phenomenon crucial for maintaining organismal homeostasis. Traditionally conceptualized as a passive terminal state associated with inflammatory responses and elimination

Establishing safe high hydrostatic pressure devitalization thresholds for autologous head and neck cancer vaccination and reconstruction [PDF]
High hydrostatic pressure specifically devitalizes cells and tissues without major changes in their molecular structure. Hence, high hydrostatic pressure may enhance the development of whole-cell anti-tumor vaccines, representing tumor heterogeneity and ...

Lipid accumulation in human breast cancer cells injured by iron depletors [PDF]
Background Current insights into the effects of iron deficiency in tumour cells are not commensurate with the importance of iron in cell metabolism. Studies have predominantly focused on the effects of oxygen or glucose scarcity in tumour cells, while ...

Apoptosis is the most widely recognized form of physiological programmed cell death. During the past three decades, various nonapoptotic forms of cell death have gained increasing attention, largely because of their potential importance in pathological processes, toxicology, and cancer therapy.

CK2 inhibition with silmitasertib promotes methuosis-like cell death associated to catastrophic massive vacuolization of colorectal cancer cells [PDF]
AbstractProtein kinase CK2 is a highly conserved and constitutively active Ser/Thr-kinase that phosphorylates a large number of substrates, resulting in increased cell proliferation and survival. A known target of CK2 is Akt, a player in the PI3K/Akt/mTORC1 signaling pathway, which is aberrantly activated in 32% of colorectal cancer (CRC) patients.

Identification and analysis of diverse programmed cell death patterns in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis using microarray-based transcriptome profiling and single-nucleus RNA sequencing. [PDF]
BackgroundIdiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic, progressive pulmonary disorder marked by the gradual substitution of lung tissue with fibrotic tissue, resulting in respiratory failure.

Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Indolyl-Pyridinyl-Propenones Having Either Methuosis or Microtubule Disruption Activity [PDF]
Methuosis is a form of nonapoptotic cell death characterized by an accumulation of macropinosome-derived vacuoles with eventual loss of membrane integrity. Small molecules inducing methuosis could offer significant advantages compared to more traditional anticancer drug therapies that typically rely on apoptosis. Herein we further define the effects of
