Preclinical activity of brincidofovir in peripheral T-cell and NK/T-cell lymphoma. (PubMed, BMC Med)
Taken together, these results demonstrate a novel role for BCV in lymphoma therapy and suggest potential for combination with checkpoint immunotherapy.

Roles of THBS2+ fibroblasts in malignant transformation of colorectal polyp to cancer. (PubMed, J Pathol)
Furthermore, depletion of THBS2+ fibroblasts enhanced polyp formation but suppressed tumor formation in a thymidine kinase 1/ganciclovir/azoxymethane/dextran sulfate sodium mouse model. The comprehensive multi-omics atlas and complementary data presented here will advance our understanding of the mechanisms underlying CRC malignant transformation and may provide a potential therapeutic target.

Logic-Gated HSV-TK/GCV Suicide Gene Circuit for Triple-Negative Breast Cancer. (PubMed, Adv Sci (Weinh))
The herpes simplex virus thymidine kinase/ganciclovir (HSV-TK/GCV) suicide gene therapy system has shown promise in cancer treatment, but its clinical applicability is limited by off-target cytotoxicity...In two orthotopic breast cancer models, BRAS significantly suppressed tumor growth without affecting body weight or general health, underscoring its therapeutic potential. This approach intelligently combines molecular signals from both cancerous and healthy cells to precisely regulate therapeutic gene expression, making it a promising platform for the next-generation cancer therapy.

Identification of Tumor- and Immunosuppression-Driven Glioblastoma Subtypes Characterized by Clinical Prognosis and Therapeutic Targets. (PubMed, Curr Issues Mol Biol)
We predicted potential therapeutic small molecular drugs by targeting subtype-specific oncogenic pathways and validated drug sensitivity (C1-GBM: Methotrexate and Cisplatin; C2-GBM: Cytarabine) by assessing IC50 values against GBM cell lines (divided into C1/C2 subtypes based on the nine hub genes) from the Genomics of Drug Sensitivity in Cancer database. This study introduces a pathway-based prognostic molecular classification of GBM with "hot" (C1-GBM) and "inherent driving" (C2-GBM) tumor subtypes, providing a prediction model based on hub biomarkers and potential therapeutic targets for treatments.

Implementation of Natural Products and Derivatives in Acute Myeloid Leukemia Management: Current Treatments, Clinical Trials and Future Directions. (PubMed, Cancers (Basel))
By targeting nucleic acids, FLT3 or CD33, several FDA-approved NPs and NPDs (i.e., cytarabine, anthracyclines, midostaurin, melphalan and calicheamicin linked to anti-CD33) are the major agents of upfront treatment of AML. This review summarizes the current state of the art, and provides a summary of selected NPs/NPDs which are either entering or have been investigated in preclinical and clinical trials, alone or in combination with current chemotherapy. With multifaceted actions, these biomolecules may target all hallmarks of AML, including multidrug resistance and deregulated metabolism.
