Cancers, Vol. 15, Pages 4467: Increased Response to Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors with Dietary Methionine Restriction in A Colorectal Cancer Model
In this study, we combined DMR with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) in a model of colon adenocarcinoma. In vitro, we observed that MR increased the expression of MHC-I and PD-L1 in both mouse and human colorectal cancer cells. We also saw an increase in the gene expression of STING, a known inducer of type I interferon signaling. Inhibition of the cGAS–STING pathway, pharmacologically or with siRNA, blunted the increase in MHC-I and PD-L1 surface and gene expression following MR. This indicated that the cGAS–STING pathway, and interferon in general, played a role in the immune response to MR...

Transitional Insight into the RNA-Based Oligonucleotides in Cancer Treatment
Appl Biochem Biotechnol. 2023 Jul 4. doi: 10.1007/s12010-023-04597-5. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTConventional cancer therapies with chemodrugs suffer from various disadvantages, such as irreversible side effects on the skin, heart, liver, and nerves with even fatal consequences. RNA-based therapeutic is a novel technology which offers great potential as non-toxic, non-infectious, and well-tolerable platform. Herein, we introduce different RNA-based platforms with a special focus on siRNA, miRNA, and mRNA applications in cancer treatment in order to better understand the details of their therapeutic effects. Of note, the...

A comprehensive review on the composition, biogenesis, purification, and multifunctional role of exosome as delivery vehicles for cancer therapy
Biomed Pharmacother. 2023 Jun 29;165:115087. doi: 10.1016/j.biopha.2023.115087. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAll forms of life produce nanosized extracellular vesicles called exosomes, which are enclosed in lipid bilayer membranes. Exosomes engage in cell-to-cell communication and participate in a variety of physiological and pathological processes. Exosomes function via their bioactive components, which are delivered to target cells in the form of proteins, nucleic acids, and lipids. Exosomes function as drug delivery vehicles due to their unique properties of innate stability, low immunogenicity, biocompatibility, biodi...

Combination of B7H6-siRNA and temozolomide synergistically reduces stemness and migration properties of glioblastoma cancer cells
This study aimed to understand the potential role and molecular mechanism of the combination therapy of B7H6-siRNA and temozolomide in glioblastoma cancer. U87 cells were treated with B7H6-siRNA and temozolomide, separately and in combination. Cell viability, stemness, cell migration, and apoptosis were measured. The results of this work presented the synergistic effect of B7H6-siRNA and temozolomide in inhibiting the cancerous features of the U87 cell line. Down-regulating B7H6-siRNA expression inhibited the cell viability of U87 glioblastoma cancer cells and increased their sensitivity to temozolomide. In addition, a not...

Evaluation of a DoE based approach for comprehensive modelling of the effect of lipid nanoparticle composition on nucleic acid delivery
Biomaterials. 2023 May 15;299:122158. doi: 10.1016/j.biomaterials.2023.122158. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTTherapeutic nucleic acids (TNAs) comprise an alternative to conventional drugs for cancer therapy. Recently, stable nucleic acid lipid particles (SNALPs) have been explored to deliver TNA efficiently and safely both in vitro and in vivo. Small interfering RNA (siRNA) and messenger RNA (mRNA) based drugs have been suggested for a wide range of pathologies, and their respective lipid nanoparticle (LNP) formulations have been optimised using a Design of Experiments (DoE) approach. However, it is uncertain as to whether...

Biomedical applications of nanomaterials in the advancement of nucleic acid therapy: Mechanistic challenges, delivery strategies, and therapeutic applications
Int J Biol Macromol. 2023 Apr 26:124582. doi: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.124582. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIn the past few decades, substantial advancement has been made in nucleic acid (NA)-based therapies. Promising treatments include mRNA, siRNA, miRNA, and anti-sense DNA for treating various clinical disorders by modifying the expression of DNA or RNA. However, their effectiveness is limited due to their concentrated negative charge, instability, large size, and host barriers, which make widespread application difficult. The effective delivery of these medicines requires safe vectors that are efficient & selective...

siRNA and targeted delivery systems in breast cancer therapy
AbstractRecently, nucleic acid drugs have been considered as promising candidates in treatment of various diseases, especially cancer. Because of developing resistance to conventional chemotherapy, use of genetic tools in cancer therapy appears inevitable. siRNA is a RNAi tool with capacity of suppressing target gene. Owing to overexpression of oncogenic factors in cancer, siRNA can be used for suppressing those pathways. This review emphasizes the function of siRNA in treatment of breast tumor. The anti-apoptotic-related genes including Bcl-2, Bcl-xL and survivin can be down-regulated by siRNA in triggering cell death in ...

Selective CDK9 knockdown sensitizes TRAIL response by suppression of antiapoptotic factors and NF-kappaB pathway
AbstractThe aberrantly up-regulated CDK9 can be targeted for cancer therapy. The CDK inhibitor dinaciclib (Dina) has been found to drastically sensitizes cancer response to TRAIL-expressing extracellular vesicle (EV-T). However, the low selectivity of Dina has limited its application for cancer. We propose that CDK9-targeted siRNA (siCDK9) may be a good alternative to Dina. The siCDK9 molecules were encapsulated into EV-Ts to prepare a complexed nanodrug (siEV-T). It was shown to efficiently suppress CDK9 expression and overcome TRAIL resistance to induce strikingly augmented apoptosis in lung cancer both in vitro and in v...
