Impact of Immunohistochemical PSA and Ki-67 Expression on Prognosis in Metastatic Castration-Sensitive Prostate Cancer. (PubMed, Int J Urol)
Immunohistochemical PSA and Ki-67 expression provide practical prognostic information for patients with metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer. Combined assessment with EOD ≥ 3 identifies a high-risk subgroup with unfavorable clinical outcomes.

PBX1-mediated transcription of AP1M2 promotes triple-negative breast cancer malignant progression and docetaxel resistance. (PubMed, Gene)
PBX1-mediated AP1M2 facilitates cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and docetaxel resistance to accelerate TNBC malignant behavior, providing a novel target for TNBC treatment.

Characterization and validation of a bone metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer model as a nanomedicine evaluation platform. (PubMed, Theranostics)
Poor solubility, systemic toxicity, and therapeutic resistance hamper conventional approaches, such as docetaxel (Dtx) treatment... Our intratibial bone mCRPC mouse model provides a robust platform for studying PCa bone metastases and evaluating nanomedicine efficacy. PGA-Dtx displays promise as a safe and effective therapy for mCRPC, offering improved drug delivery and reduced systemic side effects, which supports the translational potential of polymer-drug conjugates in mCRPC management.

Ferritin as a novel predictive index for nasopharyngeal carcinoma survival and therapeutic efficacy of different chemotherapy regimens. (PubMed, World J Clin Oncol)
The chemotherapy regimens of NF, TN, and TP for NPC are associated with the prognosis of NPC. The Ferritin index is an important indicator for predicting NPC survival.

Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor-2 positive metastatic salivary duct carcinoma with remarkable response to targeted therapy: a case report and therapeutic implications. (PubMed, Anticancer Drugs)
We report the case of a middle-aged man with HER2-positive metastatic SDC who achieved near-complete pathologic and radiological response to trastuzumab and docetaxel, enabling surgical resection for locoregional control. This case highlights the role of anti-HER2 therapy as a first-line strategy in SDC and underscores the importance of individualized management plans integrating systemic treatment and locoregional measures.

Cytotoxic and anti-metastatic effects of Pllans-II from Porthidium lansbergii lansbergii venom against prostate cancer cells. (PubMed, Biochem Biophys Res Commun)
In contrast, it spared non-tumorigenic prostate epithelial cells (PCS-440-010), unlike Docetaxel...Western blot analysis revealed no change in the caspase-8 expression, but a marked upregulation of Beclin-1, probably related to autophagy cell death pathways. These findings highlight the selective cytotoxicity and anti-metastatic potential of Pllans-II, positioning it as a promising prototype for the development of novel therapeutic strategies against prostate cancer.

Integrative multi-omics and machine learning framework identifies PRDX4 as a redox-EMT regulator and predictive marker in bone-metastatic breast cancer. (PubMed, NPJ Precis Oncol)
To accelerate translational impact, we performed drug repurposing and molecular docking, identifying Docetaxel as a high-affinity PRDX4-targeting compound with favorable binding energetics. Together, this work demonstrates how ML-driven multi-omics analysis can bridge biomarker discovery and drug design, guiding multitarget and multi-drug strategies to improve outcomes in bone metastatic breast cancer.

ZNF683+ NK cells govern chemotherapy sensitivity in advanced HPSCC via reshaping immune microenvironment. (PubMed, Nat Commun)
Hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (HPSCC), an aggressive head and neck cancer with dismal prognosis, faces persistent chemoresistance to standard TPF (docetaxel, cisplatin, 5-fluorouracil) regimen. Mechanistically, bioinformatics and in vitro coculture data reveal that ZNF683+ NK cells directly interact with CD8+ T cells, and drive an MHC-I-dependent licensing of polyfunctional GZMK+CD8+ effector memory T cells. Collectively, this NK-CD8+ axis provides a potential predictive biomarker and therapeutic target to overcome chemoresistance in patients with HPSCC.
