Researchers analyse how an antidiabetic treatment could help control tumour growth, potentially paving the way for improved cancer treatment design. In a study, published in the open access journal Cancers MDPI, researchers from Flinders University, in collaboration with the South Australia Health and Medical Research Institute (SAHMRI) and Flinders Medical Centre, investigate the mechanisms of a type 2 diabetes medication, metformin, in treating colorectal cancer cells. Understanding the mechanisms by which metformin acts as a preventative agent and disrupts cancer cell growth represents a promising advancement in exploring the clinical efficiency of this antidiabetic drug in cancer control.

Summary: Dr. Tanya Dorff of City of Hope discusses two significant studies on prostate cancer immunotherapy presented at the ASCO annual meeting. The first study focused on a bispecific T-cell engager, tarlatamab, showing lower response rates and higher cytokine release syndrome, limiting its therapeutic potential. The second study, NEPTUNES, utilized an immune selection biomarker with ipilimumab-nivolumab, demonstrating improved response rates and manageable toxicity in mCRPC patients. These findings suggest promising advancements in immunotherapy for prostate cancer treatment.

NAD+ repletion with niacin counteracts cancer cachexia Muscle wasting syndrome called cachexia linked to comorbidity in cancer patients. Mitochondrial metabolism aberrations from nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+ ) loss leads to tissue wasting. The researchers confirm in this study the depletion of NAD+ and downregulation of Nrk2, an NAD+ biosynthetic enzyme, are common features of severe cachexia. NAD+ repletion therapy with NAD+ precursor, vitamin B3 niacin in cachectic mice, efficiently corrects tissue NAD+ levels, improves mitochondrial metabolism and ameliorates cancer- and chemotherapy-induced cachexia. The authors show that muscleNRK2 is downregulated in cancer patients, who show metabolic abnormalities underscoring the significance of NAD+ in the pathophysiology of human cancer cachexia. #sciencenewshighlights #ScienceMission https://lnkd.in/gipynYzn

C57BL/6 and BALB/c mice were utilized from Envigo ++++ to study how the tumor microenvironment changes in triple-negative breast cancers with different levels of MHC-I expression. The researchers also explored potential combination immunotherapy strategies to overcome resistance to immune checkpoint inhibitors. #Immunotherapy resistance is a significant challenge in breast cancer treatment. This research highlights how varying MHC-I expression contributes to resistance against antiโPD-L1 therapy. It also identifies NKG2A on NK cells as a potential target to enhance treatment effectiveness.

A breast cancer cell study reaffirms that broccoli contains Sulforaphane which in combination with chemotherapy targets the crux of cancer: its cancer stem cells. Sulforaphane inhibits breast CSCs and downregulates the Wnt/beta-catenin self-renewal pathway. These findings support the use of Sulforaphane for the chemoprevention of breast cancer stem cells and warrant further clinical evaluation.

Discovering new and lost knowledge through intelligence, imagination, and integrity.
2wInteresting. Are the results similar across gender and age cohorts? Also, does it cause a reduction of testosterone in men during or after treatment? How does metformin affect different gut-microflora communities? Will treatment induce or increase inflammatory response?
