Mice lacking Prmt5 specifically in thymic epithelial cells exhibited an altered thymic T cell selection, leading to the breakdown of immune tolerance accompanied by both autoimmune responses and enhanced antitumor immunity. Thus, arginine methylation and transcript splicing are essential for establishing immune tolerance and may serve as a therapeutic target in autoimmune diseases as well as cancer immunotherapy.
Collectively, the inhibitory effect of Nestin on the TRA sensitivity of cells to TRA was confirmed in this study. These results imply that the antioxidant Nestin-Nrf2 axis may play a role in the mechanism underlying the resistance of GC cells to TRA.

We tested the efficacy of BH3 mimetics, including venetoclax and S63845, in primary Aza-resistant AML cells treated with FUS-ERG. The disturbance of chromatin organisation might induce this by co-repressors, including BCOR, NCOR2, and RCOR1. MCL1 inhibition could partially overcome Aza resistance in FUS-ERG-harbouring AML cells.
Finally, TRA-1-60/TRA-1-81 expression is highly specific in primary cancer tissue and positively correlated with chemoresistance and short survival, which highlights their potentiality for targeted therapy. Therefore, we discovered a novel CCC surface marker regulated by a pathway that promotes chemoresistance, as well as a leading drug candidate to target this pathway.

Several of the stated genes have already been reported in other cancer studies as putative blood biomarkers, thus reinforcing the requirement for deeper investigation. These findings may aid in the development of innovative clinical biomarkers for CC prevention and should be further replicated in other populations.
