Pathological events modify cell-cell interactions, cell-matrix adhesion and extra cellular matrix integrity leading to cell migration, evasion from the primary tumor and augmented invasiveness in the metastatic niche. This transformation is modulated by multiple paracrine factors (e.g., chemokines, growth factor), as well as SLIT2-ROBO1 signaling that collectively regulate expression of RHO GTPases (e.g., RHOA) and EMT marker genes. Yet, the roles of SLIT proteins in cancer remain enigmatic. In some cancer types, SLIT2 is anti-tumorigenic, while in other cancers it contributes towards the metastatic phenotype. Here we investigated the ambivalent metastatic activity of SLIT2 by analyzing how cAMP/RHOA signal transduction modulates SLIT-ROBO controlled metastatic parameters in response to the phosphodiesterase inhibitor IBMX (3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine) and paracrine factors (TGF-β/TGFB1 and FGF2). Upon SLIT2 administration cell migration and proliferation increases in colon cancer cells and decreases in cervical cancer cells, while altering cell morphology and proliferation in both cancer types. These effects are reinforced by TGF-β/TGBF1 and FGF2, but attenuated by elevation of cAMP with IBMX, depending on the cancer cell type. Our data indicate that SLIT2 represents a potential biomarker for cancer diagnosis, prognosis, and therapy.","PeriodicalId":56317,"journal":{"name":"Critical Reviews in Eukaryotic Gene Expression","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2024-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141551616","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the potential of Foxm1 in the tumor microenvironment (TME) is still unknown. The purpose of the present study is to investigate the role of Foxm1 in CD8+ T cell anti-tumor immunity. RT-qPCR is conducted to calculate mRNA levels. JASPAR is used to predict the binding sites between Foxm1 and NLRP3. ChIP assay is performed to verify the occupancy of Foxm1 on the promoter of NLRP3. Modulatory relationship between Foxm1 and NLRP3 is verified by luciferase assay. In vivo assays are conducted to further verify the role of Foxm1/NLRP3 axis in cervical cancer. HE staining assay is applied for histological analysis. Fow cytometry is conducted to determine the functions of immune cells. We found that Foxm1 knockdown decreases tumor burden and suppresses tumor growth of cervical cancer. Foxm1 knockdown promotes the infiltration of CD8+ T cells. Foxm1 deficiency inhibits the exhaustion of CD8+ T cells and facilitates the maintenance of CD8+ effector and stem-like T cells. Moreover, Foxm1 transcriptionally inactivates NLRP3 and suppressed the expression of innate cytokines IL-1β and IL-18. However, inhibition of NLRP3 inflammasome or neutralizing IL-1β and IL-18 inhibits anti-tumor immunity and promoted tumor growth in Foxm1 deficiency in CD8+ T cells. In summary, targeting Foxm1 mediates the activation of NLRP3 inflammasome and stimulates CD8+ T cell anti-tumor immunity in cervical cancer.","PeriodicalId":56317,"journal":{"name":"Critical Reviews in Eukaryotic Gene Expression","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2024-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141166756","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The potential of regenerative approaches relies on the biological properties of dental stem cells. These and other multipotent somatic mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) types can in principle be applied as either autologous or allogeneic sources in dental procedures. Dental stem cells have distinct developmental origins and biological markers that determine their translational utility. Dental regenerative medicine is supported by mechanistic knowledge of the molecular pathways that regulate dental stem cell growth and differentiation. Cell fate determination and lineage progression of dental stem cells is regulated by multiple cell signaling pathways (e.g., WNTs, BMPs) and epigenetic mechanisms, including DNA modifications, histone modifications, and non-coding RNAs (e.g., miRNAs and lncRNAs). This review also considers a broad range of novel approaches in which stem cells are applied in combination with biopolymers, ceramics and composite materials, as well as small molecules (agonistic or anti-agonistic ligands) and natural compounds.

Partial correction and return of deformity are common with surgical or clinical treatments at present. While current treatments are limited to local procedures for relatively late effects of the disease, the pathophysiology of this connective tissue disorder is associated with both local and systemic processes (e.g., fibrosis, inflammation). Hence, a better understanding of the systemic circulation of Dupuytren related cytokines and growth factors may provide important insights into disease progression. In addition, systemic biomarker analysis could yield new concepts for treatments of Dupuytren that attenuate circulatory factors (e.g., anti-inflammatory agents, neutralizing antibodies). Progress in the development of any disease modifying biologic treatment for Dupuytren has been hampered by the lack of clinically useful biomarkers. The characterization of nonsurgical Dupuytren biomarkers will permit disease staging from diagnostic and prognostic perspectives, as well as allows evaluation of biologic responses to treatment. Identification of such markers may transcend their use in Dupuytren treatment, because fibrotic biological processes fundamental to Dupuytren are relevant to fibrosis in many other connective tissues and organs with collagen-based tissue compartments. There is a wide range of potential Dupuytren biomarker categories that could be informative, including disease determinants linked to genetics, collagen metabolism, as well as immunity and inflammation (e.g., cytokines, chemokines).
