Signaling Mechanism of Cuproptosis Activating cGAS-STING Immune Pathway. (PubMed, JACS Au)
With Cu-DPPZ-Py+ and Cu-Elesclomol, there is strong evidence that the triggering cuproptosis significantly drives mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) release to activate innate immunity via cyclic GMP-AMP synthase-stimulation of interferon genes (cGAS-STING), which can improve T cell antitumor immunity in vivo. By contrast, it is observed that Cu-DPPZ-Ph treated tumor cells could release intracellular caspase-3, resulting in apoptosis-associated immunosuppression. This study supports insights into how cuproptosis bridges cGAS-STING immune pathways, contributing to the development of cuproptosis-based antitumor immunotherapy.

Development and Validation of a Comprehensive Prognostic and Depression Risk Index for Gastric Adenocarcinoma. (PubMed, Int J Mol Sci)
With the Genomics of Drug Sensitivity in Cancer database, we found that the gastric adenocarcinoma patients with high risk-score may be sensitive to Pazopanib, XMD8.85, Midostaurin, HG.6.64.1, Elesclomol, Linifanib, AP.24534, Roscovitine, Cytarabine, and Axitinib. The gene signature consisting of the NDUFA4L2, ANKRD45, and AQP3 genes is a promising biomarker to distinguish the prognosis, the molecular and immune characteristics, the depressive risk, and the therapy candidates for gastric adenocarcinoma patients.

Cuproptosis in microsatellite stable colon cancer cells affects the cytotoxicity of CD8+T through the WNT signaling pathway. (PubMed, Chem Biol Interact)
The study developed an MSS CC cuproptosis model using 50 nM elesclomol and 1 μM CuCl2...Cuproptosis in MSS CC cells enhances the cytotoxicity of CD8+ T cells, which may be achieved through downregulation of the WNT signaling pathway and decreased expression of PD-L1. In the future, drugs that can induce cuproptosis may be a promising approach to improve MSS CC immunotherapy.

Copper(II)-Based Nano-Regulator Correlates Cuproptosis Burst and Sequential Immunogenic Cell Death for Synergistic Cancer Immunotherapy. (PubMed, Biomater Res)
To trigger cuproptosis, copper-ionophore elesclomol (ES) had to be employed for the copper-transporting-mediated process...This enabled an increased infiltration of cytotoxic CD8+ T cells and consequently enhanced antitumor immune responses for successfully suppressing fibrosarcoma growth. Thus, the copper(II)-based metal-organic framework nano-regulator offered a promising approach for inducing cuproptosis and cuproptosis-stimulated ICD for cancer immunotherapy.

Long non-coding RNAs in ferroptosis and cuproptosis impact on prognosis and treatment in hepatocellular carcinoma. (PubMed, Clin Exp Med)
Finally, we validated the accuracy of FCRLs in hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines using induction agents (elesclomol and erastin). Cellular assays revealed significant changes in the expression of AC019080.5, AC145207.5, MIR210HG, and LINC01063 in HCC cell lines following the addition of ferroptosis and cuproptosis inducers. We created a signature of four FCRLs that accurately predicted survival in HCC patients, laid the foundation for basic research related to ferroptosis and cuproptosis in hepatocellular carcinoma, and provided therapeutic recommendations for HCC patients.

Enzalutamide Sensitizes Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer to Copper-Mediated Cell Death. (PubMed, Adv Sci (Weinh))
Here, the synergistic induction of copper-dependent cell death (cuproptosis) in CRPC cells is reported by enzalutamide and copper ionophores (elesclomol/disulfiram). Importantly, enzalutamide significantly enhances copper ionophore-mediated cytotoxicity in enzalutamide-resistant cells. Collectively, these findings indicate that enzalutamide and copper ionophores synergistically induce cuproptosis, offering a promising therapeutic avenue for CRPC, potentially including enzalutamide-resistant cases.

Ferritinophagy mediates adaptive resistance to EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors in non-small cell lung cancer. (PubMed, Nat Commun)
Osimertinib (Osi) is a widely used epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI). Combining Osi with elesclomol, a copper ion ionophore, significantly increases the efficacy of Osi, with no additional toxicity. Altogether, this study reveals the mechanisms of NCOA4-mediated ferritinophagy in Osi adaptive resistance and introduces a promising new therapy of combining copper ionophores to improve its initial efficacy.

Elesclomol-copper synergizes with imidazole ketone erastin by promoting cuproptosis and ferroptosis in myelodysplastic syndromes. (PubMed, Biomed Pharmacother)
Cell viability assays showed that the glutathione and its precursor N-acetylcysteine could significantly rescue the cell death under either mono or combination treatment, demonstrating that GSH acts at the crossing point in the regulation network of cuproptosis and ferroptosis. Significantly, the reconstitution of xCT expression and knockdown of FDX1 cells have been found to contribute to the tolerance of mono treatment but have little recovery impact on the combined treatment. Collectively, these findings suggest that a synergistic interaction leading to the induction of multiple programmed cell death pathways could be a promising approach to enhance the effectiveness of therapy for MDS.

Validation of CDC45 as a novel biomarker for diagnosis and prognosis of gastric cancer. (PubMed, PeerJ)
In a comprehensive the drug susceptibility analysis, we found that patients with high expression of CDC45 had high sensitivity to various chemotherapeutic agents, among which 5-fluorouracil, docetaxel, cisplatin, and elesclomol were most evident. Enrichment analysis revealed that CDC45 and its associated genes may play crucial roles in muscle biofunction, whereas GSEA demonstrated significant enrichment of gene sets pertaining to G protein-coupled receptor ligand binding and G alpha (i) signaling events. Our study elucidates that upregulation of CDC45 is intricately associated with immune cell infiltration and holds promising potential as a favorable prognostic marker and a novel diagnostic biomarker for GC.

Protein phosphatase 1 regulatory subunit 15 A promotes translation initiation and induces G2M phase arrest during cuproptosis in cancers. (PubMed, Cell Death Dis)
In our study, we demonstrated that elesclomol, as a carrier of copper ions, caused an upregulation of protein phosphatase 1 regulatory subunit 15 A (PPP1R15A), which plays a role in regulating substrate selectivity of protein phosphatase 1 during cuproptosis. Mechanistically, we investigated that PPP1R15A activated translation initiation by dephosphorylating eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 subunit alpha at the S51 residue through protein phosphatase 1 and phosphorylating eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E binding protein 1 at the T70 residue. In addition, PPP1R15A reduced H3K4 methylation by altering the phosphorylation of histone methyltransferases, which led to the silencing of MYC and G2M phase arrest.

Redox modulation of oxidatively-induced DNA damage by ascorbate enhances both in vitro and ex-vivo DNA damage formation and cell death in melanoma cells. (PubMed, Free Radic Biol Med)
Finally, we show that ascorbate serves to enhance the oxidising effects of the MM therapeutic drug Elesclomol in both established MM cells in vitro and primary cell cultures ex vivo. Together, these results suggest that ascorbate selectively enhances DNA damage and cell-killing in MM cells. This raises the option of incorporating ascorbate into clinical oxidative therapies to treat MM.

Transcriptomic correlates of cell cycle checkpoints with distinct prognosis, molecular characteristics, immunological regulation, and therapeutic response in colorectal adenocarcinoma. (PubMed, Front Immunol)
In addition, GSE173839, GSE25066, GSE41998, and GSE194040 dataset analyses of the underlying CCC signature suggested that durvalumab with olaparib and paclitaxel, taxane-anthracycline chemotherapy, neoadjuvant cyclophosphamide/doxorubicin with ixabepilone or paclitaxel, and immunotherapeutic strategies might be suitable for COAD patients with higher CCC score. Eventually, the GDSC database analysis showed that lower CCC scores were likely to be more sensitive to 5-fluorouracil, bosutinib, gemcitabine, gefitinib, methotrexate, mitomycin C, and temozolomide, while patients with higher CCC score seemed to have a higher level of sensitivity to bortezomib and elesclomol. The novel CCC signature exhibited a good ability for prognosis prediction for COAD patients, and the CCC score was found to be highly correlated with molecular features, immune-related characteristics, and therapeutic responses, which would greatly promote clinical management and precision medicine for COAD.

Induction of cuprotosis by elesclomol (ES) significantly repressed the in vitro and in vivo growth of thyroid cancer cells, simultaneously elevated Cu level and expression of FDX1, whereas depletion of FDX1 abolished these effects. Knockdown of FDX1 decreased the lipoylation level of DLAT and DLST in thyroid cancer cells, alleviated cuprotosis-induced cell death, simultaneously upregulated the levels of PA and α-KG. These findings demonstrated that FDX1 promotes the cuprotosis of thyroid cancer cells via regulating the lipoylation of DLAT.
