Article Abstract
Cell migration is a pivotal step in metastatic process, which requires cancer cells to navigate a complex spatially-confined environment, including tracks within blood vessels and in the vasculature of target organs. Here it is shown that during spatially-confined migration, the expression of insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 1 (IGFBP1) is upregulated in tumor cells. Secreted IGFBP1 inhibits AKT1-mediated phosphorylation of mitochondrial superoxide dismutase (SOD2) serine (S) 27 and enhances SOD2 activity. Enhanced SOD2 attenuates mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation in confined cells, which supports tumor cell survival in blood vessels of lung tissues, thereby accelerating tumor metastasis in mice. The levels of blood IGFBP1 correlate with metastatic recurrence of lung cancer patients. This finding reveals a unique mechanism by which IGFBP1 sustains cell survival during confined migration by enhancing mitochondrial ROS detoxification, thereby promoting tumor metastasis.

Patients with primary plasma cell leukemia (pPCL), particularly those with extramedullary disease (EMD), face a poor prognosis even with chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell therapy. This case report describes a patient with relapsed/refractory pPCL and life-threatening malignant pleural effusion (PE) treated with intrapleural CAR-T cells targeting B-cell maturation antigens. CAR-T cell expansion within the PE was observed, along with a rapid reduction in leukemia cell count and PE volume.

Plasmablastic lymphoma (PBL) is a rare and aggressive non-Hodgkin lymphoma with a poor prognosis and short survival rates. It is classified as a large B-cell lymphoma subtype, but carries a plasmacytic immunophenotype. Therefore, PBL has pathogenetic overlaps with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma not otherwise specified (DLBCL NOS) and plasma cell neoplasms (PCNs).

Background: Previous studies indicated that over-dissection of lymph nodes might impair the efficacy of immunotherapy. This study aims to explore the prognostic value of ypN + status and the impact of lymph node dissection (LND) on survival after neoadjuvant immunochemotherapy (NICT) for esophageal squamous cell cancer (ESCC).
Methods: This double-center retrospective study enrolled 206 consecutive ESCC patients who underwent NICT followed by esophagectomy between 2018 and 2024.

Whole blood (WB) transcriptomics offers a minimal-invasive method to assess patients' immune system. This study aimed to identify transcriptional patterns in WB associated with clinical outcomes in patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). We performed RNA-sequencing on pre-treatment WB samples from 145 patients with advanced cancer.

Aberrant DNA methylation has been described in nearly all human cancers, yet its interplay with genomic alterations during tumor evolution is poorly understood. To explore this, we performed reduced representation bisulfite sequencing on 217 tumor and matched normal regions from 59 patients with non-small cell lung cancer from the TRACERx study to deconvolve tumor methylation. We developed two metrics for integrative evolutionary analysis with DNA and RNA sequencing data.
