Recent advances in genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified genetic loci associated with UC, providing insights into the disease's molecular mechanisms, including immune modulation, mucosal defense, and epithelial barrier function. Despite these findings, many GWAS signals are located in non-coding regions and are linked to low risk, suggesting that protein-coding genes alone do not fully explain UC's pathophysiology. Emerging research emphasizes the potential of microRNAs (miRNAs) as biomarkers and therapeutic targets due to their crucial role in UC. This review explores the current understanding of miRNAs in UC, including their mechanisms of action and their potential as both biomarkers and therapeutic targets. The present review provides the latest update on their potential as a biomarker and therapeutic target.Areas covered: This review synthesizes an extensive literature search on miRNAs in UC, focusing on their roles in the mucosal barrier, innate and adaptive immunity, and their potential applications as biomarkers and therapeutic modalities.Expert opinion: While miRNAs present promising opportunities as biomarkers and novel therapeutic agents in UC, challenges in validation, specificity, delivery, and clinical application need to be addressed through rigorous, large-scale studies.","PeriodicalId":12185,"journal":{"name":"Expert Opinion on Therapeutic Targets","volume":" ","pages":"829-841"},"PeriodicalIF":5.4,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142282691","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this review, we present a summary of the current status and future prospects of immunotherapies targeting GPC3 by focusing on clinical trials; peptide vaccines, mRNA vaccines, antibody therapy, and chimeric antigen receptor/T-cell receptor - T-cell therapy and discuss additional strategies for effectively eliminating HCC through immunotherapy.Expert opinion: GPC3 is an ideal cancer antigen for HCC immunotherapy. In resectable HCC, immunotherapies that leverage physiological immune surveillance, immune checkpoint inhibitors, and GPC3-target cancer vaccines appear promising in preventing recurrence and could be considered as a prophylactic adjuvant therapy. However, in advanced HCC, clinical trials have not demonstrated sufficient anti-tumor efficacy, in contrast with preclinical studies. Reverse translation, bedside-to-bench research, is crucial to identify the factors that have hindered GPC3 target immunotherapies.","PeriodicalId":12185,"journal":{"name":"Expert Opinion on Therapeutic Targets","volume":" ","pages":"895-909"},"PeriodicalIF":5.4,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142461382","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) receptor is expressed in subsets of nociceptive sensory neurons and has major roles in pain transmission and regulation. In the structures of the knee joint, nociceptors are present in abundance.Areas covered: TRPV1-expressing nociceptors in the knee represent a rational target to modulate activity at the origin of the pain pathway in KOA and may avoid systemic side effects seen with currently available analgesics. TRPV1 antagonists can induce analgesia, but hyperthermia and thermal hypesthesia side effects have limited their utility. Clinical development of TRPV1 agonists for pain management has progressed further than that of TRPV1 antagonists. Capsaicin and resiniferatoxin have provided proof-of-concept for the modulation of TRPV1 activity in KOA.Expert opinion: Intra-articular administration of TRPV1 agonists enables direct delivery to target nerve terminals in the knee, offering a potentially transformative approach for the management of pain associated with KOA.

Tumor-induced immunosuppression limits the effectiveness of current immunotherapeutic strategies, such as PD-1/PDL-1 checkpoint inhibitors. Adenosine, a purine nucleoside molecule, is crucial to this immunosuppression because it stops T cells from activating and helps regulatory T cells grow. Targeting the adenosine pathway and blocking PD-1/PDL-1 is a potential way to boost the immune system's response to tumors.Areas covered: This review discusses the current understanding of the adenosine pathway in tumor immunology and the preclinical and clinical data supporting the combination of adenosine pathway inhibitors with PD-1/PDL-1 blockade. We also discuss the challenges and future directions for developing combination immunotherapy targeting the adenosine pathway and the PD-1/PDL-1 axis for cancer treatment.Expert opinion: The fact that the adenosine signaling pathway controls many immune system processes suggests that it has a wide range of therapeutic uses. Within the next five years, there will be tremendous progress in this area, and the standard of care for treating malignant tumors will have switched from point-to-point therapy to the integration of immunological networks comprised of multiple signaling pathways, like the adenosine axis.","PeriodicalId":12185,"journal":{"name":"Expert Opinion on Therapeutic Targets","volume":" ","pages":"757-777"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142282689","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
