Consequently, the field of cardio-oncology has emerged to address the prevalence of CVD in cancer survivors and the cardiovascular toxicity associated with cancer therapies. Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) have been found to play a crucial role in early diagnosis, prognosis, and therapeutics within the realm of cardio-oncology. This comprehensive review evaluates the risk assessment of cancer survivors concerning the acquisition of adverse cardiovascular consequences, investigates the association of ncRNAs with CVD in patients undergoing cancer treatment, and delves into the role of ncRNAs in the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of CVD in patients with a history of anti-cancer therapy. A thorough understanding of the pathogenesis of cancer therapy-related cardiovascular disease and the involvement of ncRNAs in cardio-oncology will enable healthcare professionals to provide anticancer treatment with minimized cardiovascular side effects, thereby improving patient outcomes.

Preclinical studies have reported that niclosamide at clinically relevant concentrations inhibits androgen receptor splice variant 7 (AR-V7), a known tumor driver in CRPC. However, the magnitude of anti-tumor effects of niclosamide either used alone or in combination with abiraterone in these experimental models, far exceeded what could have been explained as a simple AR-V7 inhibition. Niclosamide at clinically relevant concentrations also acts as an oxidative phosphorylation (OxPhos) uncoupler in mitochondria. This raises the question whether the observed effects of niclosamide were partly mediated by OxPhos inhibition. Most OxPhos inhibitors did not demonstrate selectivity towards cancer cells and failed to enter clinical practice due to unacceptable toxicity. However, some mitochondrial uncouplers have greater cytotoxicity against cancerous cells compared to non-cancerous. Hyperpolarization of cancer cell mitochondria, or the more alkaline mitochondrial matrix of cancer cells could be potential reasons for this. Niclosamide can also alter Wnt/β-catenin, mTOR, Notch, NF-kB and STAT3 signaling pathways. Hence, the mechanism of action of reformulated niclosamide in CRPC patients requires further investigation. This will potentially lead to new opportunities to develop and investigate even more selective and effective treatments against prostate cancer.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":9507,"journal":{"name":"Cancer treatment and research communications","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9473530","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
