Prognostic Value of EZH2 and Ki-67 in Squamous Cell Carcinoma of Ear and Temporal Bone. (PubMed, Otol Neurotol)
Our study demonstrated that the overexpression of EZH2 was significantly associated with advanced tumor stage and poor 5-year overall survival in a Chinese ETBSCC cohort. These findings highlight the applicability of EZH2 as a candidate therapeutic target for integrated therapies. Further exploration and validation through a stable cell line are needed.

Therapeutic targeting SPI1 in combination with erastin promotes ferroptosis in ccRCC. (PubMed, Commun Biol)
Mechanistically, SPI1 transcriptionally suppresses ACSL4 expression through the EZH2/H3K27me3 pathway, leading to inhibition of intracellular lipid peroxidation. Thus, SPI1 knockdown synergizes with erastin to promote lipid peroxidation and ferroptosis, suggesting that targeting SPI1 may represent a promising therapeutic strategy for renal cell carcinoma.

Telomere-protecting protein 1 promotes gastric cancer cell metastasis via enhancing endoplasmic reticulum stress. (PubMed, J Biol Chem)
TPP1, induced by H. pylori, promoted GC metastasis by enhancing ERS via interaction with GRP78. Targeting the TPP1/ERS axis may offer a novel therapeutic strategy for GC.

PINK1 suppresses colorectal cancer cell growth through epigenetic regulation of histone modifications (PubMed, Zhejiang Da Xue Xue Bao Yi Xue Ban)
PINK1 acts as a tumor suppressor in colorectal cancer by inhibiting proliferation and migration, promoting apoptosis, and remodeling the epigenetic landscape through altering histone modifications and enhancing chromatin accessibility.

RAD51B-EZH2 axis as a potential therapeutic target for TNBC through cell fate conversion. (PubMed, Cell Death Dis)
Inhibition of the RAD51B-EZH2 axis allows the re-expression of functional ERα, making TNBC targetable by endocrine therapy. Consistently, the combination of EZH2 inhibitor with tamoxifen effectively reduces TNBC progression, suggesting that the RAD51B-EZH2 axis is a potential therapeutic target for TNBC.

Fibrillarin regulates epithelial integrity via EZH2-mediated modulation of scribble expression. (PubMed, Cell Rep)
Since Scribble tethers PHLPP1 and PTEN to antagonize Akt, repression of Scribble induces EMT. In summary, FBL safeguards epithelial integrity, by regulating the expression of Scribble, uncovering an FBL-EZH2 axis in EMT and metastasis.

Network Pharmacology and Transcriptomic Analysis Reveal the Mechanism by Which Ginsenoside CK Remodels the Tumor Immune Microenvironment to Inhibit Liver Cancer Progression. (PubMed, Chem Biol Drug Des)
In vivo experiments confirmed that ginsenoside CK suppressed tumor formation by downregulating EZH2, activating the dendritic cell-NK cell axis, and remodeling the tumor immune microenvironment. Ginsenoside CK inhibits EZH2, activating the dendritic cell-NK cell axis and remodeling the tumor immune microenvironment, thereby suppressing HCC cell activity and tumorigenicity.

From Traditional Therapies to Nanomedicine: A Thorough Examination of Atypical Teratoid Rhabdoid Tumor Treatment Methods. (PubMed, Mol Pharm)
Nonetheless, translational barriers such as delivery efficiency, scalability, pediatric safety, and regulatory challenges must be addressed before these strategies reach clinical practice. This review integrates insights into ATRT biology, conventional management, and emerging molecular-, immunological-, and nanotechnology-based approaches, emphasizing opportunities and challenges in advancing outcomes for children affected by this devastating tumor.
