Article Abstract
The aim of this study was to examine the inhibitory effect of blue light (BL) on the proliferation of metastatic cancer cells and synergistic properties with chemo-drugs. BL significantly inhibited the proliferation of B cell lymphoma (A20 and RAMOS) cells in a dose-dependent manner. Anti-proliferative effect of BL irradiation was identified to be associated with the inhibition of proliferating-cell nuclear antigen expression and cell cycle by decreasing S-phase cells. Consistent with its inhibitory effects, BL irradiation at 20 J/cm daily for 10 days inhibited metastasis of cancer cells which were distributed and invaded to other organs including bone marrow, liver, kidney, etc., and induced paraplegia, thereby leading to an increased survival rate of tumor-bearing mice. Anti-proliferative activity of BL was expanded in solid tumor cells including pancreatic carcinoma (Mia PaCa-2, PANC-1), lung carcinoma A549 and colorectal carcinoma HCT116 cells. Additionally, combination with chemo-drugs such as 5-FU and gemcitabine resulted in an increase in the anti-proliferative activity after BL irradiation accompanied by regulating mRNA translational process via inhibition of p70S6K, 4EBP-1 and eIF4E phosphorylation during cellular proliferation. These results indicate the anti-metastatic and photo-biogoverning abilities of BL irradiation as a potent therapeutic potential for repressing the progression of tumor cells.

We previously used a disease-specific B cell receptor (BCR) point mutation (IGLV3-21R110) for selective targeting of a high-risk subset of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) with chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells. Since CLL is a disease of the elderly and a significant fraction of patients is not able to physically tolerate CAR T cell treatment, we explored bispecific antibodies as an alternative for precision targeting of this tumor mutation. Heterodimeric IgG1-based antibodies consisting of a fragment crystallizable region (Fc) attached to both an anti-IGLV3-21R110 Fab and an anti-CD3 (UCHT1) single chain variable fragment (R110-bsAb) selectively killed cell lines engineered to express high levels of the neoepitope as well as primary CLL cells using healthy donor and CLL patient-derived T cells as effectors.

Immunotherapies, including cell therapies, are effective anti-cancer agents. However, cellular product persistence can be limiting with short functional duration of activity contributing to disease relapse. A variety of manufacturing protocols are used to generate therapeutic engineered T-cells; these differ in techniques used for T-cell isolation, activation, genetic modification, and other methodology.

Mitochondria-targeted photodynamic therapy (PDT) circumvents the short lifetime and action radius limitation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and greatly improves the anticancer PDT efficacy. However, current approaches require different molecular engineering strategies to separately improve ROS production and introduce mitochondria targeting ability, which involve tedious synthetic procedures. Herein, we report a facile one-step cationization strategy that simultaneously improves the ROS generation efficiency and introduces mitochondria targeting ability for enhanced PDT.

Activated B-cell diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (ABC-DLBCL) is an aggressive cancer with poor response to standard chemotherapy. In search of new therapeutic leads, a library of 435 fractions prepared from the Irish marine biorepository was screened against 2 ABC-DLBCL cell lines (TMD8 and OCI-Ly10) and a non-cancerous control cell line (CB33). Active fractions are prioritized based on potency and selectivity.

Kinesin family member 14 (KIF14) has been implicated in the progression of multiple cancer types, yet its role in colorectal cancer (CRC) metastasis remains undefined. Here, we assesse KIF14 expression in CRC specimens and explore its clinical and functional significance. KIF14 upregulation is frequently observed in CRC tissues and is correlated with advanced tumor stage and reduced overall survival.
