BIRC3 (Baculoviral IAP repeat containing 3)

Furthermore, we also used Kaplan-Meier curves, multivariate analysis and penalized Cox regression model to identify six genes (C2CD5, CD163, JADE3, BIRC3, TMEM200A, and LINC00877) related to the prognosis of DLBCL. In conclusion, we developed a machine learning model integrating clinical characteristics and gene expression profiles, providing a reliable decision-support tool for DLBCL prognosis and treatment selection.

In parallel, binary QSAR models were developed using the MetaCore/MetaDrug platform to predict anticancer activity. Based on the combined docking and QSAR analyses, several promising analogues were identified and proposed for synthesis and subsequent biological evaluation in future studies.

Recent studies indicate that multiple Ubiquitin-Specific Proteases (USP) family members play pivotal roles in lung cancer: Ubiquitin-Specific Peptidase 7 (USP7) promotes proliferation and osimertinib resistance in non-small cell lung cancer by stabilising proteins such as ERβ, c-Abl, and KRAS; Ubiquitin-Specific Peptidase 9, X-linked (USP9X) mediates radiotherapy resistance by regulating KDM4C and REV1; USP10 influences cellular metabolism and chemotherapy sensitivity via PTEN/AKT/mTOR and HDAC6 pathways; Ubiquitin-Specific Peptidase 14 (USP14) enhances tumour migration by regulating β-catenin and Acf7 stability; Ubiquitin-Specific Peptidase 22 (USP22) amplifies tumour stem cell properties and suppresses ferroptosis via EGFR and BMI1 signalling; Ubiquitin-Specific Peptidase 35 (USP35) and Ubiquitin-Specific Peptidase 38 (USP38) respectively modulate apoptosis resistance and proliferation through BIRC3 and KLF5; while Ubiquitin-Specific Peptidase 39 (USP39) influences mitochondrial metabolism via PDHA, thereby promoting tumour growth...It further explores the potential value of small-molecule inhibitors targeting USPs (such as P5091, IU1, and gentiopicroside) in reversing drug resistance, inducing apoptosis, and enhancing immunotherapy...This paper reviews the molecular mechanisms and targeting strategies of USPs in lung cancer based on a systematic literature search of PubMed and Web of Science databases. It further explores their potential applications in precision lung cancer therapy, providing theoretical foundations and directional guidance for future research.

Gene expression profiling demonstrated ≥ twofold changes in 51 genes, including downregulation of BAK1 and TRAF3, and upregulation of BIRC2, BIRC3, BIRC6, CASP8, TNFRSF8, TNFRSF11, and BOK. Collectively, these findings indicate that SFV exerts significant antitumor effects in colorectal cancer models and support its potential as a promising anticancer agent, warranting further mechanistic and translational investigation.

Combining OGM and NGS analysis refined risk stratification beyond standard FISH panels and supports more precise, individualized management strategies in CLL. Prospective studies are warranted to evaluate the clinical utility of OGM-guided genomic profiling in contemporary treatment paradigms.

Here, we show that AZD5582 and AT406, potent antagonists of cellular inhibitor of apoptosis proteins 1 and 2 (cIAP1 and cIAP2) and X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis protein (XIAP), selectively eliminated HCT116 and RKO cells that had undergone senescence following treatment with a chemotherapeutic agent such as trifluridine, camptothecin, or doxorubicin. At physiological concentrations, TNFα sensitized non-senescent, proliferating cancer cells, but not TIS and nutlin-3a-induced senescent cancer cells, to apoptosis in the presence of IAP antagonists. Collectively, these findings suggest that IAP antagonists could serve as effective concomitant agents to TIS-inducing chemotherapy that promotes TNFα secretion within tumors, functioning not only as TNFα-independent senolytics but also as potentiators of TNFα-mediated apoptosis in adjacent non-senescent, proliferating cancer cells.

Overexpression of either cIAP1 or 2 impaired LMP1 TES1-mediated non-canonical NF-κB activation. Collectively, these studies suggest that LMP1 TES1 initiates non-canonical NF-κB signaling distinctly from CD40 and other host immunoreceptors, thereby highlighting a therapeutic target.

Aberrant expression of Nek2 and Hec1 may contribute to ATL pathogenesis.

The cytotoxic activity of the synthesized compounds was evaluated against MCF-7 breast cancer cells, revealing IC50 values of 29.44 μM for PZ-9 and 17.35 μM for PZ-11, compared to 6.45 μM for the reference drug vincristine...PZ-11 is a promising TZD-based anticancer drug candidate against breast cancer cells, as determined by computational and experimental analysis. However, further validation is required through in vivo analysis to support these findings.
