Advancements in single-cell sequencing for cervical cancer research. (PubMed, Mol Cell Biochem)
Future efforts must prioritize functional validation of novel targets (DKK2, ELF3), spatial multi-omics to resolve CAF-immune-metabolic crosstalk, and biomarker-driven clinical trials integrating single-cell classifiers. By bridging single-cell insights with mechanistic and translational studies, the field can overcome stromal-mediated resistance and usher in an era of precision immunotherapy for CC.

Cancer-Associated Fibroblast-Derived GDF15 Induces Oxidative Stress and Neutrophil Infiltration in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma through the PI3K/AKT/STAT3 Axis Cascade. (PubMed, Research (Wash D C))
Notably, risperidone (SM-2) emerged as a potential inhibitory regulator capable of disrupting the cascade effects mediated by the GDF15-GFRAL axis, underscoring its therapeutic relevance. This study identifies the GDF15-GFRAL signaling axis as a critical regulator of oxidative stress and immune evasion in HNSCC and demonstrates that the novel small-molecule SM-2 effectively targets this pathway, highlighting its potential as a promising therapeutic strategy.

Clathrin Light Chain B Drives Hepatocellular Carcinoma Progression Through Dual Mechanisms: Small Extracellular Vesicle-Mediated Angiogenesis and the NF-κB-PCLAF Signaling Axis. (PubMed, Adv Sci (Weinh))
In patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models, combined therapy of clathrin inhibitor (chlorpromazine) or SH3KBP1 silencing with sorafenib suppresses tumor growth and reduces microvascular density. This study demonstrates that CLTB promotes HCC progression through the NF-κB-PCLAF signaling axis and sEV-mediated vascular remodeling, providing a mechanistic foundation for developing combination therapies targeting CLTB.

Adrenocortical carcinoma survival gene HMMR was identified as being targeted by fluorouracil and epirubicin using a gene coexpression network-based drug repositioning strategy. (PubMed, Sci Rep)
Mitotane, the medication licenced for ACC, has had mixed results...Paclitaxel and cisplatin were the central nodes within the drug-gene network...Network analysis shows fluorouracil and epirubicin target the ACC novel hub gene, HMMR. Fluorouracil was more effective due to its impact on M2 macrophage infiltration.

Sphingosine-1-phosphate stimulates colorectal cancer tumor microenvironment angiogenesis and induces macrophage polarization via macrophage migration inhibitory factor. (PubMed, Front Immunol)
Spatial transcriptomics revealed a correlation between the distribution of SPHK1 and M2-like macrophage. By integrating multi-omics data and further cellular experiments, we propose that inhibition of S1P may play an important role in inhibiting angiogenesis and reversing M2-type macrophage polarization, demonstrating its anti-tumor efficacy in CRC.

Discovery of indane and naphthalene derivatives as USP7 inhibitors. (PubMed, Eur J Med Chem)
In colon cancer animal models, X21 exerted in vivo anti-tumor efficacy, probably through synergistic effects of direct cytotoxicity and immune microenvironment improvement. These findings may provide directions for future design of novel USP7 inhibitors and facilitate the exploration of new mechanism of USP7 inhibitors.
