FMNL2/SRC-mediated androgen receptor translocation into the nucleus promotes enzalutamide resistance of prostate cancer. (PubMed, iScience)
Consistently, SRC inhibitor dasatinib rescued enzalutamide sensitivity and inhibited the proliferation of enzalutamide-resistant cancer cells. Taken together, our findings demonstrate a substantial role for FMNL2/SRC interaction in the regulation of AR translocation, suggesting that targeting FMNL2-mediated SRC activation might be a potential therapeutic strategy for enzalutamide-resistant PCa and dasatinib could be an option.

Tyrosine kinase inhibitors modulate the expression of peroxiredoxins 1 and 2 in chronic myeloid leukemia cells. (PubMed, Leuk Res Rep)
We found that TKIs, such as imatinib, nilotinib, and dasatinib, increased the gene expression of PRDX2 in K562 cells; however, only dasatinib increased the cytoplasmic protein expression of PRDX2. This discrepancy was linked to post-translational regulation through SUMOylation in cooperation with dasatinib. Our results suggest that the antioxidants PRDX1 and PRDX2 could serve as potential targets for TKIs in the treatment of CML.

Single cell multi-omics reveals re-dosing with CD3 bispecific antibody induces a TCF7 high central memory CD8 + T cell population associated with reduced cytokine production. (PubMed, Biomed Pharmacother)
The distinct T cell populations that respond to first and subsequent CD3 bispecific treatment offer an explanation to the first-dose effect, wherein the risk of CRS associated with CD3 bispecific treatment is mainly limited to the initial dose. Furthermore, our work suggests that tumor killing capacity and cytokine production of T cells could be uncoupled, as demonstrated here by utilizing different T cell populations as effector cells. These findings could be further explored for designing mechanism-based strategies to mitigate the risk of CRS.

This study uses Raman and fluorescence imaging to investigate the in vitro cytotoxic effects of two TKIs, imatinib and dasatinib, on human aortic endothelial cells (HAECs). The predominant mechanism appears to involve oxidative stress-mediated inflammation, as evidenced by increased lipid content in treated cells and ICAM-1 staining. This cytotoxicity may contribute to the cardiotoxic effects observed during TKI therapy.

Mechanistic insights into HNRNPA2B1: A comprehensive pan-cancer analysis and functional characterization in lung cancer. (PubMed, Biochim Biophys Acta Mol Basis Dis)
Furthermore, elevated HNRNPA2B1 levels conferred resistance to multiple chemotherapeutics, including Dasatinib. Functional studies demonstrated that HNRNPA2B1 enhances lung cancer cell proliferation and migration by upregulating TARDBP and cell cycle-related genes, with m6A modification serving as a critical regulatory mechanism. Collectively, these findings establish HNRNPA2B1 as an oncogenic factor across multiple cancer types, underscoring its value as a prognostic marker and a promising therapeutic target, particularly in lung cancer, offering new insights for targeted therapeutic strategies.

High-throughput drug screening identifies SMAC mimetics as enhancers of NK cell cytotoxicity in chronic myeloid leukemia. (PubMed, Blood)

In conclusion, we discovered that SMAC mimetics sensitize cancer cells to NK cell mediated killing, with potential clinical applications especially in patients with advanced phase CML.

Paeoniflorin sensitizes imatinib mesylate-resistant chronic myeloid leukemia cells via the inhibition of Cyr61 production. (PubMed, Anticancer Drugs)
Imatinib mesylate (IM) is a first-line therapy for chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) and exhibits good therapeutic effects, but not in all patients with CML owing to drug resistance. Importantly, PF also improved the sensitivity of CML cells to bosutinib and dasatinib via inhibition of Cyr61 production. In conclusion, we report for the first time that PF may effectively improve the sensitivity of IM-resistant CML cells to IM, bosutinib, and dasatinib, at least in part, by subsequently downregulating Cyr61.

EBV-LPD is also reported to be a rare side effect in patients receiving long-term dasatinib or imatinib...The subsequently removed splenic mass was largely composed of non-neoplastic cytotoxic T cells resulting from a reaction to EBV-infected B cells. EBV-LPD should be included in the differential diagnosis of patients who develop lymphadenopathy during dasatinib treatment, regardless of its duration.
