Article Abstract

The toxicity of aluminum (Al) in acidic soil inhibits plant development and reduces crop yields. Programmed cell death (PCD) is one of the important mechanisms in the plant response to Al toxicity. However, it is yet unknown if S-nitrosoglutathione reductase (GSNOR) provides Al-PCD. Here, transcription and protein expression of AhGSNOR1 were both induced by Al stress. AhGSNOR1-overexpressing transgenic tobacco plants reduced Al-induced nitric oxide (NO) and S-nitrosothiol accumulation, the inhibitory effect of Al stress on root elongation and the degree of cell death, and enhanced antioxidant enzyme activity to effectively remove hydrogen peroxide. In addition, AhGSNOR1 directly interacted with AhTRXh in vivo. Expression of Trxh3 in AhGSNOR1-overexpressing transgenic plants was significantly upregulated, indicating that AhGSNOR1 positively regulated the transcriptional level of Trxh3. Together, these results suggested that AhGSNOR1 was a negative regulatory factor of Al-induced PCD and improved plant Al-tolerance by modulating intracellular NO and redox homeostasis.

Immune checkpoint therapy has demonstrated significant potential in the treatment of various solid tumors. Among these, tumor-induced immunosuppression mediated by programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) represents a critical checkpoint. PD-1/programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) inhibitors have been proven to exhibit substantial efficacy in solid tumors such as melanoma and bladder cancer.

To investigate the clinicopathological characteristics of non-HPV-related common differentiated penile squamous cell carcinoma, and to observe and analyze the changes of TP53 gene and the expression and significance of TP53, P16, programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1), epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), androgen receptor (AR), human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2), and Ki67 proteins in tumor tissue. A total of 65 patients with penile squamous cell carcinoma diagnosed from May 2008 to May 2020 in Yantai Yuhuangding Hospital were retrospectively analyzed, and tumors were confirmed as non-HPV-associated common differentiated squamous cell carcinoma of the penis with negative HPV molecular tests in 55 patients. The relevant clinicopathological data of 55 patients were collected, and the TP53 gene mutation was detected by applying first-generation sequencing technology.

Through applying the hybridization technique, new coumarin derivatives (2-17) were prepared with substitution at coumarin C-3 utilizing various heterocyclic derivatives, aiming to afford multi-target carbonic anhydrases (CAs) IX/XII and topoisomerase II (Topo II) inhibitors with potent antiproliferative activity. Eight different cell lines were used to evaluate the growth inhibition percentages (GI%) of cancer cells determined by coumarin analogues 1-17. Analogues 16 and 17 had the most substantial cytotoxic effects, achieving mean GI% of 86.

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is an aggressive cancer with poor prognosis, partly due to cancer stem cells (CSCs) that drive progression and treatment resistance. We explored the therapeutic potential of inducing cuproptosis, a copper-dependent regulated cell death, in CSC-enriched PDAC models. Using human and murine PDAC models, we evaluated elesclomol, a copper transport enhancer.

Pediatric high-grade gliomas remain a significant therapeutic challenge due to their resistance to conventional treatments. The aim of this study was to investigate the cytotoxic potential of solamargine (SM), a natural glycoalkaloid, alone and in combination with the chemotherapeutic agent temozolomide (TMZ) against the human KNS-42 glioma cell line. Solamargine significantly reduced cell viability and proliferation in a concentration-, time-, and hypoxia-dependent manner, while selectively sparing non-tumor human astrocytes (NHA).
