Vorinostat synergises with capecitabine through upregulation of thymidine phosphorylase [PDF]
Potentiation of anticancer activity of capecitabine is required to improve its therapeutic index. In colorectal cancer (CRC) cells, we evaluated whether the histone deacetylase-inhibitor vorinostat may induce synergistic antitumour effects in combination with capecitabine by modulating the expression of thymidine phosphorylase (TP), a key enzyme in the

Serum proteome profiling of plateau acclimatization in men using Olink proteomics approach
Abstract Plateau acclimatization involves adaptive changes in the body's neurohumoral regulation and metabolic processes due to hypoxic conditions at high altitudes. This study utilizes Olink targeted proteomics to analyze serum protein expression differences in Han Chinese individuals acclimatized for 6 months–1 year at 4500 and 5300 m altitudes ...

Metabolomics‐driven approaches for identifying therapeutic targets in drug discovery
Various metabolomics‐based methods were outlined that have been employed for target identification, such as dose–response metabolomics, stable isotope‐resolved metabolomics, mass spectrometry imaging metabolomics. Furthermore, the emerging potentials of target identification based on metabolomics, such as artificial intelligence, single‐cell ...

Abstract Antibody and cell‐based therapeutics targeting cell surface receptors have emerged as a major class of immune therapeutics for treating cancer. However, the number of cell surface targets for cancer immunotherapy remains limited. Glypican‐3 (GPC3) is a cell surface proteoglycan and an oncofetal antigen.

Biological biomarkers of oral cancer
Abstract The oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) 5 year survival rate of 41% has marginally improved in the last few years, with less than a 1% improvement per year from 2005 to 2017, with higher survival rates when detected at early stages. Based on histopathological grading of oral dysplasia, it is estimated that severe dysplasia has a malignant ...

Hyaluronic acid metabolism and chemotherapy resistance: recent advances and therapeutic potential
Hyaluronic acid (HA), a major component of the extracellular matrix, mediates essential biochemical signals required for tissue homeostasis. Many solid tumors are characterized by dysregulated HA metabolism. Here, we review the current knowledge on the role of HA in cancer chemotherapy and examine the status and prospects of HA‐based cancer therapy ...

A synergistic platform towards 4′‐thionucleosides is presented that enables both biocatalytic nucleobase diversification from 4′‐thiouridine in a one‐pot process and chemical functionalization to access new entities. This approach delivers entry to pyrimidine and purine 4′‐thionucleosides, and chemoenzymatic synthesis provided 5‐ethynyl‐4′‐thiouridine ...

7‐Deazaxanthine, a novel prototype inhibitor of thymidine phosphorylase
7‐Deazaxanthine (7DX) was identified as a novel inhibitor of thymidine (dThd) phosphorylase (TPase). It inhibited the TPase reaction in a concentration‐dependent manner. At 1 mM, it almost completely prevented the TPase‐catalysed hydrolysis of dThd to thymine.
