The emerging role of CARM1 in cancer
AbstractCoactivator-associated arginine methyltransferase 1 (CARM1), pivotal for catalyzing arginine methylation of histone and non-histone proteins, plays a crucial role in developing various cancers. CARM1 was initially recognized as a transcriptional coregulator by orchestrating chromatin remodeling, transcription regulation, mRNA splicing and stability. This diverse functionality contributes to the recruitment of transcription factors that foster malignancies. Going beyond its established involvement in transcriptional control, CARM1-mediated methylation influences a spectrum of biological processes, including the cell...

Integrated analysis of single-cell RNA-seq and bulk RNA-seq reveals immune suppression subtypes and establishes a novel signature for determining the prognosis in lung adenocarcinoma
ConclusionsOur multi-omics result revealed a comprehensive set of molecular attributes associated with prognosis-related genes in LUAD at the cellular and tissue level. Identification of a subtype of immunosuppressive TME and prognostic signature for LUAD. We identified the cell cycle regulation geneCDC25C affects lung cancer cell invasion and migration, which can be used as a potential biomarker for LUAD. (Source: Cellular Oncology)

Hedgehog ligand and receptor cooperatively regulate EGFR stability and activity in non-small cell lung cancer
ConclusionNon-canonical Hh signaling pathway, involving cooperation between Hh ligands and their receptor Ptch1, facilitates the degradation of EGFR and attenuates its activity in NSCLC. These findings provide novel insights into the regulation of EGFR protein stability and activity, offer new diagnostic indicators for molecular typing of NSCLC and identify potential targets for targeted therapy of this challenging disease.

IFIT1 modulates the proliferation, migration and invasion of pancreatic cancer cells via Wnt/ β-catenin signaling
ConclusionsOur data indicate that IFIT1 increases pancreatic cancer cell proliferation, migration and invasion by activating the Wnt/ β-catenin pathway. In addition, we found that EMT could be regulated by IFIT1. IFIT1 may serve as a potential therapeutic target for pancreatic cancer. (Source: Cellular Oncology)

3D bioprinted tumor model: a prompt and convenient platform for overcoming immunotherapy resistance by recapitulating the tumor microenvironment
Conclusions and PerspectivesIn this review, we briefly summarize the contributions of cellular and noncellular components of the TME in the development of immunotherapy resistance, and introduce recent advances in 3D bioprinted tumor models that served as platforms to study the interactions between tumor cells and the TME. By constructing multicellular 3D bioprinted tumor models, cellular and noncellular crosstalk is reproduced between tumor cells, immune cells, fibroblasts, adipocytes, and the extracellular matrix (ECM) within the TME. In the future, by quickly preparing 3D bioprinted tumor models with patient-derived com...

The Ribonuclease ZC3H12A is required for self-inflicted DNA breaks after DNA damage in small cell lung cancer cells
AbstractRadiotherapy is the first line treatment for small cell lung cancer (SCLC); However, radio-resistance accompanies with the treatment and hampers the prognosis for SCLC patients. The underlying mechanisms remains elusive. Here we discovered that self-inflicted DNA breaks exist in SCLC cells after radiation. Moreover, using nuclease siRNA screening combined with high-content ArrayScan ™ cell analyzer, we identified that Ribonuclease ZC3H12A is required for the self-inflicted DNA breaks after radiation and for SCLC cell survival after DNA damage. ZC3H12A expression was increased in response to DNA damage and when ZC...
