Abstract
An efficient hydrazine substitution of p-nitro-aryl fluorides with hydrazine hydrates catalyzed by FeO(OH)@C nanoparticles is described. This hydrazine substitutions of p-nitro-aryl fluorides bearing electron-withdrawing groups proceeded efficiently with high yield and selectivity. Similarly, hydrogenations of p-nitro-aryl fluorides containing electron-donating groups also smoothly proceeded under mild conditions. Furthermore, with these prepared aryl hydrazines, some phthalazinones, interesting as potential structures for pharmaceuticals, have successfully been synthesized in high yields.

[PMID: 34859058 PMCID: PMC8632063 DOI: 10.3389/fmolb.2021.785370] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/29/2021] [Accepted: 10/27/2021] [Indexed: 01/05/2023] Open
Abstract
PDZ-binding kinase (PBK) is known to regulate tumor progression in some cancer types. However, its relationship to immune cell infiltration and prognosis in different cancers is unclear. This was investigated in the present study by analyzing data from TCGA, GEO, GETx, TIMER, CPTAC, GEPIA2, cBioPortal, GSCALite, PROGNOSCAN, PharmacoDB, STRING, and ENCORI databases. PBK was overexpressed in most tumors including adenocortical carcinoma (hazard ratio [HR] = 2.178, p < 0.001), kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC; HR = 1.907, p < 0.001), kidney renal papillary cell carcinoma (HR = 3.024, p < 0.001), and lung adenocarcinoma (HR = 1.255, p < 0.001), in which it was associated with poor overall survival and advanced pathologic stage. PBK methylation level was a prognostic marker in thyroid carcinoma (THCA). PBK expression was positively correlated with the levels of BIRC5, CCNB1, CDC20, CDK1, DLGAP5, MAD2L1, MELK, PLK1, TOP2A, and TTK in 32 tumor types; and with the levels of the transcription factors E2F1 and MYC, which regulate apoptosis, the cell cycle, cell proliferation and invasion, tumorigenesis, and metastasis. It was also negatively regulated by the microRNAs hsa-miR-101-5p, hsa-miR-145-5p, and hsa-miR-5694. PBK expression in KIRC, liver hepatocellular carcinoma, THCA, and thymoma was positively correlated with the infiltration of immune cells including B cells, CD4+T cells, CD8+ T cells, macrophages, monocytes, and neutrophils. The results of the functional enrichment analysis suggested that PBK and related genes contribute to tumor development via cell cycle regulation. We also identified 20 drugs that potentially inhibit PBK expression. Thus, PBK is associated with survival outcome in a variety of cancers and may promote tumor development and progression by increasing immune cell infiltration into the tumor microenvironment. These findings indicate that PBK is a potential therapeutic target and has prognostic value in cancer treatment.

Abstract
Cisplatin is one of the chemotherapeutic drugs used for the management of oral carcinoma, in which combined therapies are estimated to exert superior therapeutic efficacy compared with monotherapy. It is known that poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation is implicated in a multiplicity of cellular activities, such as DNA repair and cell death. Based on these, PARP inhibitors are used for the treatment of cancers; however, the capacity of PARP inhibitors associated to anti-cancer drugs have not been completely assessed in oral carcinoma. Here, we evaluated the effects of PARPi veliparib (ABT888) in combination with cisplatin on the survival of three human oral cancer cell lines HSC-2, Ca9-22 and CAL27 and we observed the effects of ABT888 alone or in combination with cisplatin on apoptosis and DNA damage repair mechanism. The results obtained showed that ABT888 induces a cytotoxicity effect on cell viability increasing the apoptotic pathway as well as DNA strand break; moreover, our results displayed the effects with cisplatin in a dose-dependent manner. Therefore, our results indicate PARP inhibitors as adjuvants for therapeutic strategy of oral cancer.

Abstract
Despite the development of standard therapies, including surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy, survival rates for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) have not changed significantly over the past three decades. Complete recovery is achieved in <50% of patients. The treatment of advanced HNSCC frequently requires multimodality therapy and involves significant toxicity. The promising, novel treatment option for patients with HNSCC is molecular-targeted therapies. The best known targeted therapies include: Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) monoclonal antibodies (cetuximab, panitumumab, zalutumumab and nimotuzumab), EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (gefitinib, erlotinib, lapatinib, afatinib and dacomitinib), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) inhibitor (bevacizumab) or vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) inhibitors (sorafenib, sunitinib and vandetanib) and inhibitors of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/serine/threonine-specific protein kinase/mammalian target of rapamycin. There are also various inhibitors of other pathways and targets, which are promising and require evaluation in further studies.

Abstract
Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is the sixth most common cancer worldwide. Mutations of TP53 may reach 70% - 85% in HNSCC patients without human papillomavirus (HPV) infection. Recurrence rate remains particularly high for HNSCC patients with mutations in the TP53 gene although patients are responsive to surgery, irradiation, and chemotherapy early in the treatment. p53-Reactivation and Induction of Massive Apoptosis-1 (PRIMA-1) and its methylated analogue PRIMA-1Met (also known as APR-246) are quinuclidine compounds that rescue the DNA-binding activity of mutant p53 (mut-p53) and restore the potential of wild-type p53. In the current report, we demonstrated that inhibition of poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) with 6(5H)-phenanthridinone (PHEN) and N-(6-Oxo-5,6-dihydrophenanthridin-2-yl)-(N, N-dimethylamino) acetamide hydrochloride (PJ34) sensitizes UMSCC1, UMSCC14, and UMSCC17A, three HNSCC cell lines to the treatment of APR-246. PHEN enhances APR-246-induced apoptosis, but not programmed necrosis or autophagic cell death in HNSCC cells. The PARP-1 inhibition-induced sensitization of HNSCC cells to APR-246 is independent of TP53 mutation. Instead, PARP-1 inhibition promotes APR-246-facilitated inactivation of thioredoxin reductase 1 (TrxR1), leading to ROS accumulation and DNA damage. Overexpression of TrxR1 or application of antioxidant N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) depletes the ROS increase, reduces DNA damage, and decreases cell death triggered by APR-246/PHEN in HNSCC cells. Thus, we have characterized a new function of PARP-1 inhibitor in HNSCC cells by inactivation of TrxR1 and elevation of ROS and provide a novel therapeutic strategy for HNSCC by the combination of PARP-1 inhibitors and APR-246.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The significant challenge posed by cancer to human healthcare has led to the exploration of new approaches to combat it. Synthetic lethality (SL) is one such emerging area in the development of novel anticancer therapies. SL can be described as lethality (cell death) resulting from the combination of the two mutations, wherein the mutation in either of the two codependent genes in normal or cancer cells is viable. This concept is specifically being exploited in cancer research for selectively targeting specific tumor cells. AREAS COVERED In this review, the authors summarize studies of SL-based novel anticancer therapies. The review highlights some of the selected advances in DNA damage response pathway-related SL pairs, particularly poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) and SL pairs involved in mitochondrial death signaling pathways published in the last 3 years. EXPERT OPINION Most of the currently used chemotherapeutic agents will destroy cells irrespective of whether they are cancer cells or fast growing normal cells; but SL is one of the approaches being developed with potential as a selective cancer therapy. PARP inhibitors, such as olaparib, are useful in BRCA mutated cancer cells and are also used in combination with other drug to enhance their efficacy. Research on PARP inhibitors is progressing at a good pace but there are still some significant challenges that must be addressed.

Abstract
Linifanib achieves the antitumor activity by inhibiting all vascular endothelial growth factor receptors and platelet-derived growth factor receptors. We aim to review the findings of clinical trials of linifanib for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Several phase I clinical trials have confirmed the safety of linifanib in patients with solid malignancy. One phase Ⅱ clinical trial has shown the clinical efficacy of linifanib alone for the treatment of HCC. Recently, a phase Ⅲ randomized controlled trial showed that, compared with sorafenib, linifanib cannot significantly improve the overall survival of HCC patients. Thus, linifanib is not recommended as the first-line therapy for advanced HCC. However, because linifanib could significantly prolong the time-to-progression and progression-free survival time and increase the objective response rate, future studies might be necessary to explore the clinical utility of linifanib as a second-line therapy for advanced HCC.
