Epidemiological Validation: Restricted cubic spline models analyzed nonlinear associations between nutritional status (Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index [GNRI]) and telomere length (DNAmTL) in NHANES 1999-2002 data (&lt;i&gt;n&lt;/i&gt; = 2,532). Gender stratification and mediation effects tested nutritional pathways. Molecular Mechanism: Transcriptomic data from TCGA (CHOL, LIHC, COAD, etc.) identified malnutrition-related genes. Survival analysis, immune subtype classification (C1-C6), and tumor microenvironment scoring (ESTIMATE/RNAss) were integrated to build a Cox prognostic model. Machine learning (ML; Random Forest/Support Vector Machine) screened key genes.

In this comprehensive study, we conducted a review of the literature from Google Scholar, PubMed, and Science Direct, focusing on research published between 1980 and 2024 to evaluate folate-targeted therapeutic strategies in oncology. Our study design involved a rigorous review of both preclinical and clinical research, emphasizing strategies such as folate-drug conjugates, antibody-drug conjugates, and folate-targeted nanoparticles. Key findings indicate that targeting FRs in cancers such as ovarian, breast, cervical, renal, and colorectal enhances drug delivery specificity to tumors, increases therapeutic efficacy, and decreases systemic toxicity compared to traditional chemotherapy. Several clinical trials reported improved progression-free survival and overall response rates among patients receiving folate-targeted therapies. In conclusion, our review highlights the significant potential of folate-targeted strategies in advancing precision oncology while these approaches provide substantial benefits in terms of efficacy and safety, further research is essential to refine drug design and expand clinical applications.
