Pharmacol Res 2024; 205:107244. [PMID: 38821149 DOI: 10.1016/j.phrs.2024.107244] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/20/2024] [Revised: 05/28/2024] [Accepted: 05/28/2024] [Indexed: 06/02/2024]
Abstract
Doxorubicin (Dox) is an anti-tumor drug with a broad spectrum, whereas the cardiotoxicity limits its further application. In clinical settings, liposome delivery vehicles are used to reduce Dox cardiotoxicity. Here, we substitute extracellular vesicles (EVs) for liposomes and deeply investigate the mechanism for EV-encapsulated Dox delivery. The results demonstrate that EVs dramatically increase import efficiency and anti-tumor effects of Dox in vitro and in vivo, and the efficiency increase benefits from its unique entry pattern. Dox-loading EVs repeat a "kiss-and-run" motion before EVs internalization. Once EVs touch the cell membrane, Dox disassociates from EVs and directly enters the cytoplasm, leading to higher and faster Dox import than single Dox. This unique entry pattern makes the adhesion between EVs and cell membrane rather than the total amount of EV internalization the key factor for regulating the Dox import. Furthermore, we recognize ICAM1 as the molecule mediating the adhesion between EVs and cell membranes. Interestingly, EV-encapsulated Dox can induce ICAM1 expression by irritating IFN-γ and TNF-α secretion in TME, thereby increasing tumor targeting of Dox-loading EVs. Altogether, EVs and EV-encapsulated Dox synergize via ICAM1, which collectively enhances the curative effects for tumor treatment.

Abstract
Small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) such as exosomes are nanoscale membranous particles (<200 nm) that have emerged as crucial targets for liquid biopsy and as promising drug delivery vehicles. They play a significant role in tumor progression as intercellular messengers. They can serve as biomarkers for tumor diagnosis and as drug carriers for cancer treatment. This article reviews recent studies on sEVs in oncology and explores their potential as biomarkers and drug delivery vehicles. Following tumorigenesis, sEVs in the tumor microenvironment (TME) and circulatory system undergo modifications to regulate various events in the TME, including angiogenesis, epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), and tumor immunity, with either pro- or anti-tumor effects. sEVs have been investigated for use as diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers for a variety of tumors, including lung cancer, melanoma, breast cancer, prostate cancer, and hepatocellular carcinoma. sEVs can be used for cancer therapy by packaging drugs or proteins into them through pre- and post-isolation modification techniques. The clinical trials of sEVs as biomarkers and drug carriers are also summarized. Finally, the challenges in the use of sEVs are described and the possible approaches to tackling them are suggested. Overall, sEVs will advance the precision cancer medicine and has shown great potential in clinical applications.

Abstract
Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) poses clinical challenges due to its varied prognosis, tumor microenvironment attributes, and responses to immunotherapy. We established a novel Programmed Cell Death-related Signature (PRS) for ccRCC assessment, derived through the Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO) regression method. We validated PRS using the E-MTAB-1980 dataset and created PCD-related clusters via non-negative matrix factorization (NMF). Our investigation included an in-depth analysis of immune infiltration scores using various algorithms. Additionally, we integrated data from the Cancer Immunome Atlas (TCIA) for ccRCC immunotherapy insights and leveraged the Genomics of Drug Sensitivity in Cancer (GDSC) database to assess drug sensitivity models. We complemented our findings with single-cell sequencing data and employed the Clinical Proteomic Tumor Analysis Consortium (CPTAC) and qRT-PCR to compare gene expression profiles between cancerous and paracancerous tissues. PRS serves as a valuable tool for prognostication, immune characterization, tumor mutation burden estimation, immunotherapy response prediction, and drug sensitivity assessment in ccRCC. We identify five genes with significant roles in cancer promotion and three genes with cancer-suppressive properties, further validated by qRT-PCR and CPTAC analyses, showcasing gene expression differences in ccRCC tissues. Our study introduces an innovative PCD model that amalgamates diverse cell death patterns to provide accurate predictions for clinical outcomes, mutational profiles, and immune characteristics in ccRCC. Our findings hold promise for advancing personalized treatment strategies in ccRCC patients.

Abstract
At the turn of the century, researchers discovered a unique subtype of T helper cells that secretes IL-17 and defined it as Th17. The latest study found that Th17 cells play both positive and negative definitive roles in the regulation of antitumor immune responses. Although the function of Th17 in the tumor microenvironment remains poorly understood, more and more studies have shown that this paradoxical dual role is closely related to the plasticity of Th17 cells in recent decades. Further understanding of the characteristics of Th17 cells in the tumor microenvironment could yield novel and useful therapeutic approaches to treat cancer. In this review, we further present the high plasticity of Th17 cells and the function of Th17-producing IL-17 in tumor immunity.

Abstract
The most important limitations of chemotherapeutic agents are severe side effects and the development of multi-drug resistance. Recently, the clinical successes achieved with immunotherapy have revolutionized the treatment of several advanced-stage malignancies, but most patients do not respond and many of them develop immune-related adverse events. Loading synergistic combinations of different anti-tumor drugs in nanocarriers may enhance their efficacy and reduce life-threatening toxicities. Thereafter, nanomedicines may synergize with pharmacological, immunological, and physical combined treatments, and should be increasingly integrated in multimodal combination therapy regimens. The goal of this manuscript is to provide better understanding and key considerations for developing new combined nanomedicines and nanotheranostics. We will clarify the potential of combined nanomedicine strategies that are designed to target different steps of the cancer growth as well as its microenvironment and immunity interactions. Moreover, we will describe relevant experiments in animal models and discuss issues raised by translation in the human setting.

Abstract
RNA modifications occur through the whole process of gene expression regulation, including transcription, translation, and post-translational processes. They are closely associated with gene expression, RNA stability, and cell cycle. RNA modifications in tumor cells play a vital role in tumor development and metastasis, changes in the tumor microenvironment, drug resistance in tumors, construction of tumor cell-cell "internet", etc. Several types of RNA modifications have been identified to date and have various effects on the biological characteristics of different tumors. In this review, we discussed the function of RNA modifications, including N 6-methyladenine (m6A), 5-methylcytosine (m5C), N 7-methyladenosine (m7G), N 1-methyladenosine (m1A), pseudouridine (Ψ), and adenosine-to-inosine (A-to-I), in the microenvironment and therapy of solid and liquid tumors.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs), including exosomes, mediate intercellular communication by delivering their contents, such as nucleic acids, proteins, and lipids, to distant target cells. EVs play a role in the progression of several diseases. In particular, programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) levels in exosomes are associated with cancer progression. Furthermore, exosomes are being used for new drug-delivery systems by modifying their membrane peptides to promote their intracellular transduction via micropinocytosis. In this review, we aim to show that an efficient drug-delivery system and a useful therapeutic strategy can be established by controlling the molecular docking and intracellular translocation of exosomes. We summarise the mechanisms of molecular docking of exosomes, the biological effects of exosomes transmitted into target cells, and the current state of exosomes as drug delivery systems.

Extracellular Vesicles: A Novel Tool in Nanomedicine and Cancer Treatment. Cancers (Basel) 2022; 14:cancers14184450.

Abstract
Simple Summary Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are plasma-membrane-encased particles with various biomolecules. Recent studies have demonstrated that EVs play a role in homeostasis and disease progression, and therefore may be important disease biomarkers. In cancer, EVs mediate inflammatory responses, oxidative stress, and contribute to altering the microenvironment. Additionally, EVs function as mediators in neurodegenerative diseases. Interestingly, EVs also promote stem cell differentiation, intercellular communication, and wound healing. These functions suggest that EVs can be utilized in medicine as therapeutic tools. Moreover, their endogenous nature and ability to carry intact biomolecules of different sizes to their target site due to their lipid bilayer makes them perfect drug transport systems that can be utilized in the treatment of many diseases, with higher efficacy and fewer side effects than other treatments as they can only target diseased cells and not healthy nearby cells, which occurs in conventional chemotherapy, for example. As such, their role in drug delivery has great potential. Abstract Extracellular vesicles are membrane-bound vesicles released by cells to mediate intercellular communication and homeostasis. Various external stimuli as well as inherent abnormalities result in alterations in the extracellular vesicle milieu. Changes to cells result in alterations in the content of the extracellular vesicle biogenesis, which may affect proximal and distal cells encountering these altered extracellular vesicles. Therefore, the examination of changes in the extracellular vesicle signature can be used to follow disease progression, reveal possible targets to improve therapy, as well as to serve as mediators of therapy. Furthermore, recent studies have developed methods to alter the cargo of extracellular vesicles to restore normal function or deliver therapeutic agents. This review will examine how extracellular vesicles from cancer cells differ from normal cells, how these altered extracellular vesicles can contribute to cancer progression, and how extracellular vesicles can be used as a therapeutic agent to target cancer cells and cancer-associated stroma. Here we present extracellular vesicles as a novel tool in nanomedicine.

Abstract
The demise of cells in various ways enables the body to clear unwanted cells. Studies over the years revealed distinctive molecular mechanisms and functional consequences of several key cell death pathways. Currently, the most intensively investigated programmed cell death (PCD) includes apoptosis, necroptosis, pyroptosis, ferroptosis, PANoptosis, and autophagy, which has been discovered to play crucial roles in modulating the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME) and determining clinical outcomes of the cancer therapeutic approaches. PCD can play dual roles, either pro-tumor or anti-tumor, partly depending on the intracellular contents released during the process. PCD also regulates the enrichment of effector or regulatory immune cells, thus participating in fine-tuning the anti-tumor immunity in the TME. In this review, we focused primarily on apoptosis, necroptosis, pyroptosis, ferroptosis, PANoptosis, and autophagy, discussed the released molecular messengers participating in regulating their intricate crosstalk with the immune response in the TME, and explored the immunological consequence of PCD and its implications in future cancer therapy developments.
