Development and validation of a neutrophil extracellular traps-related gene signature for lower-grade gliomas. (PubMed, Comput Biol Med)
LGG individuals in the low-risk category posses a higher likelihood of being sensitive to Carmustine and Vincristine, as indicated by the drug sensitivity analysis. The qRT-PCR experiment and immunohistochemistry images confirmed that the expression of FPR1, PTAFR, SLC11A1 and ICAM1 are higher in low-grade oligodendroglioma. The NETRGs signature and nomogram can accurately and conveniently predict the LGG patients' prognosis, which can facilitate individualized treatment and the improvement of prognosis.

Fabrication of co-delivery liposomal formulation incorporating carmustine and cabazitaxel displays improved cytotoxic potential and induced apoptosis in ovarian cancer cells. (PubMed, J Biomater Sci Polym Ed)
In addition, the investigation of fluorescence and protein markers examined the apoptosis mechanistic pathway, and the results indicated that BC-Lipo induced apoptosis due to mitochondrial membrane potential variation. This proof-of-concept study has established the probability of these BCNU-CTX combined treatments as active drug delivery nanocarriers for poorly soluble BCNU and CTX.

Exploiting the role of O6-methylguanine-DNA-methyltransferase (MGMT) in gastrointestinal cancers. (PubMed, Naunyn Schmiedebergs Arch Pharmacol)
MGMT plays a role in the repair of DNA damage caused by methylating drugs like temozolomide (TMZ) and chloroethylating compounds like carmustine. This review explores the structural functions and repair processes of MGMT, focusing on the putative structural and functional significance of the N-terminal domain of MGMT. It also investigates the advancement of cancer treatment techniques that specifically target MGMT.

MicroRNA-143 overexpression enhances the chemosensitivity of A172 glioblastoma cells to carmustine. (PubMed, Naunyn Schmiedebergs Arch Pharmacol)
In conclusion, these results confirmed that miR-143 could enhance carmustine-mediated suppression of cell proliferation and improve the chemosensitivity of A172 cells to this chemotherapeutic agent. Therefore, miR-143 combination therapy may be a promising GBM treatment approach.

System biology approach to identify the novel biomarkers in glioblastoma multiforme tumors by using computational analysis. (PubMed, Front Pharmacol)
Molecular docking investigations indicated that the chosen complexes (carmustine, lomustine, marimastat, and temozolomide) had high binding affinities of -6.3, -7.4, -7.7, and -8.7 kcal/mol, respectively, the mean root-mean-square deviation (RMSD) value for the carmustine complex and marimastat complex was 4.2 Å and 4.9 Å, respectively, and the lomustine and temozolomide complex system showed an average RMSD of 1.2 Å and 1.6 Å, respectively. Additionally, high stability in root-mean-square fluctuation (RMSF) analysis was observed with no structural conformational changes among the atomic molecules. Thus, these in silico investigations develop a new way for experimentalists to target lethal diseases in future.

Characterization of macrophages in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma and development of MRG-based risk signature. (PubMed, Sci Rep)
Finally, drugs with high sensitivity to HNSCC (such as 5-Fluorouracil, Temozolomide, Carmustine, and EPZ5676) were explored and analyze the malignant characteristics of HNSCC. Malignant features associated with HNSCC include angiogenesis, EMT, and the cell cycle. This study has opened up new prospects for the prognosis, prediction, and clinical treatment strategy of HNSCC.

Let-7a-3p overexpression increases chemosensitivity to carmustine and synergistically promotes autophagy and suppresses cell survival in U87MG glioblastoma cancer cells. (PubMed, Naunyn Schmiedebergs Arch Pharmacol)
Moreover, the combination therapy decreased the ability of U87MG to form colonies through downregulating CD-44. In conclusion, our work suggests that combining let-7a-3p replacement therapy with carmustine treatment could be considered a promising strategy in treatment and can increase efficiency of glioblastoma chemotherapy.

Characterization of Mitoribosomal Small Subunit unit genes related immune and pharmacogenomic landscapes in renal cell carcinoma. (PubMed, IUBMB Life)
Through in silico screening of 2183 drug targets and 1646 compounds, we identified two targets (RRM2 and OPRD1) and eight agents (AZ960, carmustine, lasalocid, SGI-1776, AZD8055_1059, BPD.00008900_1998, MK.8776_2046, and XAV939_1268) with potential therapeutic implications for high-MRPScore patients. Indeed, a high MRPScore profile appears to elevate the risk of tumor progression and mortality, potentially through its influence on immune regulation. This suggests that the MRPS-related risk model holds promise as a prognostic predictor and may offer novel insights into personalized therapeutic strategies.
