Potential therapeutic targeting of BKCa channels in glioblastoma treatment
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.This review summarizes current insights into the role of BKCa and mitoBKCa channels in glioblastoma biology, their potential classification as oncochannels, and the emerging pharmacological strategies targeting these channels, emphasizing the translational challenges in developing BKCa‐directed therapies for glioblastoma treatment.

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.The LINC01116 long noncoding RNA is induced by hypoxia and associated with poor prognosis and high recurrence rates in two cohorts of lung adenocarcinoma patients. Here, we demonstrate that besides its expression in cancer cells, LINC01116 is markedly expressed in lymphatic endothelial cells of the tumor stroma in which it participates in hypoxia ...

The Eleanor ncRNAs activate the topological domain of the ESR1 locus to balance against apoptosis
Nature Communications, 2019 Long term estrogen deprivation can result in apoptosis in breast cancer cells. Here, the authors show that this apoptosis is induced by the long-range chromatin interaction of loci containing the ESR1 and FOXO 3 genes, resulting in FOXO 3-mediated ...

ATF4‐mediated stress response as a therapeutic vulnerability in chordoma
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.We screened 5 chordoma cell lines against 100+ inhibitors of epigenetic and metabolic pathways and kinases and identified halofuginone, a tRNA synthetase inhibitor. Mechanistically halofuginone induces an integrated stress response, with eIF2alpha phosphorylation, activation of ATF4 and its target genes CHOP, ASNS, INHBE leading to cell death ...

A subset of MMR‐proficient colon cancers responds to neoadjuvant immunotherapy
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Tan et al. reveal that a distinct subset of early‐stage pMMR colon cancers can respond to neoadjuvant immunotherapy. In the NICHE‐2 trial, responders (26%) were characterized by chromosomal instability, TP53 mutations, and proliferative cell‐cycle programs, whereas nonresponders showed metabolic and stromal reprogramming with TGF‐β‐driven ...

Integrative analysis of extracellular and intracellular bladder cancer cell line proteome with transcriptome: improving coverage and validity of -omics findings [PDF]
Characterization of disease-associated proteins improves our understanding of disease pathophysiology. Obtaining a comprehensive coverage of the proteome is challenging, mainly due to limited statistical power and an inability to verify hundreds of ...

Redox regulation meets metabolism: targeting PRDX2 to prevent hepatocellular carcinoma
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.PRDX2 acts as a central redox hub linking metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatohepatitis (MASH) to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). In normal hepatocytes, PRDX2 maintains redox balance and metabolic homeostasis under oxidative stress. In contrast, during malignant transformation, PRDX2 promotes oncogenic signaling, stemness, and tumor initiation ...
