Article Abstract
Dual-specific phosphatase-8 (DUSP8), identified as the first gene in a genome-wide association study (GWAS), is implicated in cellular oxidative stress, proliferation, apoptosis, and drug resistance through its negative regulation of the dephosphorylation activities of JNK, ERK, and p38 within the MAPK pathway. Recent studies have shown that DUSP8 plays a pivotal role in the progression of several human diseases, notably colorectal cancer, diabetic kidney disease, and breast cancer. This suggests that DUSP8 may represent a novel target for clinical intervention in these diseases. This review first introduces the biological structure and function of DUSP8, with a focus on its relationship with a series of diseases and the regulatory mechanisms involved. Furthermore, we concentrate on unresolved scientific questions in the current research, aiming to establish a new theoretical foundation for the diagnosis and treatment of related diseases.

IL-2 agonists significantly modulate T cell regulation, impacting activation, proliferation, differentiation, and immune homeostasis. Interleukin-2 (IL-2) is crucial for T cell growth and function, binding to the IL-2 receptor to trigger signaling pathways that balance immune responses. IL-2 promotes the expansion of effector T cells and enhances regulatory T cells (Tregs), preventing autoimmune responses.

Despite advancements in systemic therapy, the mortality rate for patients with metastatic melanoma remains around 70%, underscoring the imperative for alternative treatment strategies. Through the establishment of a chemoresistant melanoma model and a subsequent drug investigation, we have identified pacritinib, a medication designed for treating myelofibrosis and severe thrombocytopenia, as a potential candidate to overcome resistance to melanoma therapy. Our research reveals that pacritinib, administered at clinically achievable concentrations, effectively targets dacarbazine-resistant melanoma cells by suppressing IRAK1 rather than JAK2.

Aberrant activation of fibroblast growth factor receptors (FGFRs) plays a critical role in tumorigenesis across multiple cancer types, driving the development of various FGFR inhibitors. Despite clinical advances, therapeutic efficacy remains limited by the emergence of drug resistance, primarily mediated by gatekeeper mutations in FGFRs. To overcome this challenge, we designed and synthesized a novel series of 7-(1-methyl-1-indole-3-yl)-5-pyrrolo[2,3-]pyrazine derivatives as covalent pan-FGFR inhibitors targeting both wild-type and gatekeeper mutants.
