SLC5A6 (Solute Carrier Family 5 Member 6)

It was stated that the AHR, EPHX1, GSTP1, and SLC25A32 did not correlate in healthy intestinal tissue whereas AHCY, ALDH1A1, NNMT, GSTM4, UGT2B17, and SLCO1B3 did not correlate in CRC. The disturbed transcriptional activity of genes related to the biotransformation process at all stages of CRC suggests that this may be the cause of its occurrence; the genes ought to be taken into account in preventive strategies and the treatment of patients.

Importantly, knockdown of FASN could reverse the promotional effect of SLC5A6 overexpression on the growth of cervical cancer cells, indicating that SLC5A6 promotes cervical cancer progression through FASN-mediated reprogramming of lipid metabolism. In conclusion, this study identified SLC5A6 as a novel oncogenic factor in cervical cancer and reveals its mechanism of regulating lipid metabolism via FASN, suggesting that targeting the SLC5A6-FASN axis may serve as a potential therapeutic strategy for cervical cancer.

In vivo experiments demonstrated that SLC5A6 knockout effectively inhibited tumor growth. These findings suggest that SLC5A6 is a potential therapeutic target for LUAD, offering a new avenue for treatment strategies.

Moreover, the expression of ATP Binding Cassette Subfamily G Member 2 transporter (encoded by ABCG2 gene), which may play a role in doxorubicin resistance, has been investigated. The antiproliferative activity of the doxorubicin complexes with the dimers has been determined to study the effect of the biotin moiety on the cytotoxicity in MCF-7 cancer cells.

We constructed and validated MRRS, which is valuable in predicting survival, immune infiltration and drug sensitivity in GC patients. This helps to deepen our understanding of m6A/m5C/m1A/m7G methylation and potentially provides new strategies for GC treatment.

Our work thus establishes the availability of vitamins and cofactors as a potential bottleneck in tumor progression, which can be exploited therapeutically. Overall, we show that a spatial understanding of local metabolism facilitates the identification of clinically relevant, tractable metabolic targets.

Finally, GSEA analysis showed that the high-risk group was enriched in tumor migration, invasion and growth-related pathways. Our study identified a novel 6 RBP gene pairs signature to predict the prognosis of gastric cancer patients and provide potential targets for clinical gene therapy.
