Baohuoside I induces GSDME-dependent pyroptosis and synergistically inhibits lung adenocarcinoma with cisplatin. (PubMed, Phytomedicine)
Baohuoside I is a new pyroptosis inducer in LUAD, and combined treatment with Baohuoside I and cisplatin has a synergistic inhibitory effect on LUAD.

Stemness and EMT profiles shift in xenografts derived from cisplatin-sensitive and cisplatin-tolerant ovarian cancer cells. (PubMed, PLoS One)
Our data further indicate that xenografting can induce significant cellular reprogramming. Comprehensive characterization of ovarian cancer cell-derived xenograft is therefore essential, as they represent a valuable translational platform for investigating therapy adapted ovarian cancer cells.

Lys-ing the Resistance: Targeting Lysosomes to Overcome Chemoresistance in Ovarian Cancer. (PubMed, Curr Oncol Rep)
For decades, ovarian cancer (OC) therapy has mainly relied on a regimen of tumor resection followed by treatment with cisplatin and paclitaxel. Finally, lysosomal signaling pathways disrupt various cell death mechanisms such as apoptosis, necroptosis, and ferroptosis, which allow cancer cells to evade death under chemotherapeutic stress. Targeting lysosomal biogenesis, stage-specific autophagy modulation, and lysosome-dependent metabolic vulnerabilities are promising avenues for sensitization of chemoresistant OC cells.

Selective cytotoxicity of solamargine via oxidative stress and caspase-independent mechanisms in human glioblastoma cells. (PubMed, Invest New Drugs)
Here, we investigated the effects of SM on proliferation, clonogenic survival, morphology and migration of IDH-wildtype GB cell lines (U-87MG, U-251MG and T98-G) and non-tumoral astrocytes under normoxic and hypoxic conditions, as well as its interaction with temozolomide (TMZ)...However, cleaved caspase-3 and p53 were not detected, suggesting a predominantly non-apoptotic mode of cell death. Together, these findings support SM as a promising candidate for IDH-wildtype GB therapy and underscore the need for further studies to clarify its mechanisms of action and optimize its therapeutic use.

LncRNA TMPO-AS1 aggravates the cisplatin resistance in cervical cancer via miR-140-5p/DNMT1 axis-mediated DNA methylation of KLK10. (PubMed, Med Oncol)
In vivo experiments further demonstrated that silencing TMPO-AS1 inhibited tumor growth. This study unveils a novel TMPO-AS1/miR-140-5p/DNMT1/KLK10 regulatory axis that plays a critical role in cisplatin resistance in CC, providing a potential therapeutic target for overcoming chemoresistance.

Integrative bioinformatics and machine learning approaches identify novel diagnostic signatures for oxaliplatin-resistant colorectal cancer. (PubMed, Int J Colorectal Dis)
Our study establishes a novel multi-gene diagnostic signature for oxaliplatin resistance through integrative bioinformatics and machine learning approaches. The comprehensive molecular characterization and identification of potential therapeutic candidates provide new insights into resistance mechanisms and clinical management strategies for oxaliplatin-resistant colorectal cancer.

Crystal structures, cytotoxicity studies and interactions with DNA of novel in situ-formed complexes containing N-scorpionate ligands and nitrate ions. (PubMed, Acta Crystallogr C Struct Chem)
The results show that complex 2 combines high anticancer potency with selective action towards colorectal adenocarcinoma cells and is more effective than complex 3 and the anticancer drug cisplatin. These properties make complex 2 an interesting candidate for further investigation of specific anticancer mechanisms.

Uncommon Presentation of Primary Bladder Signet Ring Cell Carcinoma With Peritoneal Carcinomatosis: A Rare Case Report. (PubMed, Case Rep Urol)
Despite peritoneal carcinomatosis, the patient responded to cisplatin/gemcitabine chemotherapy and immunotherapy, demonstrating tumor shrinkage on follow-up imaging. This case highlights the diagnostic challenges of SRCC due to its nonspecific symptoms and potential histological overlap with other metastatic gastrointestinal tumors. Early recognition and a multidisciplinary approach are critical for improving patient outcomes.
