MYC regulates many biological processes, such as cell cycle, metabolism, cellular senescence, apoptosis, angiogenesis, and immune escape. MYC plays a central role in carcinogenesis and is a key regulator of tumor development and drug resistance. Therefore, MYC is one of the most alluring therapeutic targets for developing cancer drugs. Although the search for direct inhibitors of MYC is challenging, MYC cannot simply be assumed to be undruggable. Targeting the MYC-MAX complex has been an effective method for directly targeting MYC. Alternatively, indirect targeting of MYC represents a more pragmatic therapeutic approach, mainly including inhibition of the transcriptional or translational processes of MYC, destabilization of the MYC protein, and blocking genes that are synthetically lethal with MYC overexpression. In this review, we delineate the multifaceted roles of MYC in cancer progression, highlighting a spectrum of therapeutic strategies and inhibitors for cancer therapy that target MYC, either directly or indirectly.","PeriodicalId":12689,"journal":{"name":"Genes & Diseases","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":6.8,"publicationDate":"2024-09-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142269436","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}

Light (optimal) forces accelerate OTM, whereas heavy forces decelerate it. However, the mechanisms by which PDLCs sense biomechanical stimuli and affect osteoclastic activities under different mechanical forces (MFs) remain unclear. This study demonstrates that mechanosensitive ion channel Piezo1-mediated Ca<ce:sup loc=\"post\">2+</ce:sup> signal conversion is crucial for sensing and delivering biomechanical signals in PDLCs under heavy-force conditions. Heavy MF up-regulated Piezo1 in PDLCs, reducing mitochondrial Ca<ce:sup loc=\"post\">2+</ce:sup> influx by inhibiting ITPR3 expression in mitochondria-associated membranes. Decreased mitochondrial calcium uptake led to reduced cytoplasmic release of mitochondrial DNA and inhibited the activation of the cGAS‒STING signaling cascade, subsequently inhibiting monocyte-to-osteoclast differentiation. Inhibition of Piezo1 or up-regulation of STING expression under heavy MF conditions significantly increased osteoclast activity and accelerated OTM. These findings suggest that heavy MF-induced Piezo1 expression in PDLCs is closely related to the control of osteoclast activity during OTM and plays an essential role in alveolar bone remodeling. This mechanism may be a potential therapeutic target for accelerating OTM.","PeriodicalId":12689,"journal":{"name":"Genes & Diseases","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":6.8,"publicationDate":"2024-09-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142258074","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}

Despite recent advances in treatment, the prognosis of patients with glioblastoma remains poor. Epigenetic abnormalities, the hallmarks of various types of cancer, contribute to the dysregulated expression of cancer-related genes. Post-translational modification of histones plays a pivotal role in cancer development and progression by modulating gene transcription, chromatin remodeling, and nuclear structure. Therefore, further exploration of the molecular mechanisms of epigenetic regulation in gliomas and the identification of superior therapeutic targets are required. High-mobility group nucleosomal-binding domain 2 (HMGN2) participates in the epigenetic regulation of genes through histone modification and exhibits significant differential expression between glioma and normal tissues. However, the effect of HMGN2 on gliomas and its underlying mechanisms remain unclear. This study aimed to elucidate these uncertainties by demonstrating that HMGN2 significantly promotes the proliferation of glioma cells. HMGN2 binds to histones and promotes the stability of H3K27ac acetylation in the cell division cycle 20 (CDC20) promoter region, enhancing the transcriptional activity of CDC20 and increasing the proliferation of glioma cells. Moreover, we found that CDC20 expression was negatively correlated with the survival time of patients with glioma. These results suggest that targeting epigenetic regulation, such as the HMGN2/CDC20 axis, may provide a novel direction for the treatment of gliomas.","PeriodicalId":12689,"journal":{"name":"Genes & Diseases","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":6.8,"publicationDate":"2024-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142258076","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 <ce:italic>PIK3CA</ce:italic> gene, which encodes the p110α, is the most frequently mutated oncogene in cancer. Oncogenic <ce:italic>PIK3CA</ce:italic> mutations activate the PI3K pathway, promote tumor initiation and development, and mediate resistance to anti-tumor treatments, making the mutant p110α an excellent target for cancer therapy. <ce:italic>PIK3CA</ce:italic> mutations occur in two hotspot regions: one in the helical domain and the other in the kinase domain. The <ce:italic>PIK3CA</ce:italic> helical and kinase domain mutations exert their oncogenic function through distinct mechanisms. For example, helical domain mutations of p110α gained direct interaction with insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS-1) to activate the downstream signaling pathways. Moreover, p85β proteins disassociate from helical domain mutant p110α, translocate into the nucleus, and stabilize enhancer of zeste homolog 1/2 (EZH1/2). Due to the fundamental role of PI3Kα in tumor initiation and development, PI3Kα-specific inhibitors, represented by FDA-approved alpelisib, have developed rapidly in recent decades. However, side effects, including on-target side effects such as hyperglycemia, restrict the maximum dose and thus clinical efficacy of alpelisib. Therefore, developing p110α mutant-specific inhibitors to circumvent on-target side effects becomes a new direction for targeting <ce:italic>PIK3CA</ce:italic> mutant cancers. In this review, we briefly introduce the function of the PI3K pathway and discuss how <ce:italic>PIK3CA</ce:italic> mutations rewire cell signaling, metabolism, and tumor microenvironment, as well as therapeutic strategies under development to treat patients with tumors harboring a <ce:italic>PIK3CA</ce:italic> mutation.","PeriodicalId":12689,"journal":{"name":"Genes & Diseases","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":6.8,"publicationDate":"2024-09-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142258130","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}

While the pathology of PD is multifaceted, the aggregation of α-Syn and mitochondrial dysfunction are well-established hallmarks in its pathogenesis. Recently, TFE3, a transcription factor, has emerged as a regulator of autophagy and metabolic processes. However, it remains unclear whether TFE3 can facilitate the degradation of α-Syn and regulate mitochondrial metabolism specifically in dopaminergic neurons. In this study, we demonstrate that TFE3 overexpression significantly mitigates the loss of dopaminergic neurons and reduces the decline in tyrosine hydroxylase-positive fiber density, thereby restoring motor function in an α-Syn overexpression model of PD. Mechanistically, TFE3 overexpression reversed α-Syn-mediated impairment of autophagy, leading to enhanced α-Syn degradation and reduced aggregation. Additionally, TFE3 overexpression inhibited α-Syn propagation. TFE3 overexpression also reversed the down-regulation of Parkin, promoting the clearance of accumulated mitochondria, and restored the expression of PGC1-α and TFAM, thereby enhancing mitochondrial biogenesis in the adeno-associated virus-α-Syn model. These findings further underscore the neuroprotective role of TFE3 in PD and provide insights into its underlying mechanisms, suggesting TFE3 as a potential therapeutic target for PD.","PeriodicalId":12689,"journal":{"name":"Genes & Diseases","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":6.8,"publicationDate":"2024-09-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142258126","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}
