Abstract
ADSCs are a large number of mesenchymal stem cells in Adipose tissue, which can be applied to tissue engineering. ADSCs have the potential of multi-directional differentiation, and can differentiate into bone tissue, cardiac tissue, urothelial cells, skin tissue, etc. Compared with other mesenchymal stem cells, ADSCs have a multitude of promising advantages, such as abundant number, accessibility in cell culture, stable function, and less immune rejection. There are two main methods to use ADSCs for tissue repair and regeneration. One is to implant the "ADSCs-scaffold composite" into the injured site to promote tissue regeneration. The other is cell-free therapy: using ADSC-exos or ADSC-CM alone to release a large number of miRNAs, cytokines and other bioactive substances to promote tissue regeneration. The tissue regeneration potential of ADSCs is regulated by a variety of cytokines, signaling molecules, and external environment. The differentiation of ADSCs into different tissues is also induced by growth factors, ions, hormones, scaffold materials, physical stimulation, and other factors. The specific mechanisms are complex, and most of the signaling pathways need to be further explored. This article reviews and summarizes the mechanism and clinical application of ADSCs in tissue injury repair so far, and puts forward further problems that need to be solved in this field, hoping to provide directions for further research in this field.

Abstract
Osteosarcoma (OS) is an aggressive primary bone malignancy that metastasizes rapidly. The standard of care has changed little over the previous four decades, and survival rates have plateaued. In this context, tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) emerge as potential treatments. A literature search was conducted to collect data related to receptor tyrosine kinase genetic alterations and expression in OS specimens. Gene amplification and protein expression of these receptors were linked to prognosis and tumor behavior. Relevant TKIs were evaluated as monotherapies and as parts of combination therapies. Certain TKIs, such as apatinib, regorafenib, and cabozantinib, present a potential therapeutic avenue for OS patients, especially when combined with chemotherapy. Producing long-lasting responses and enhancing quality of life remain key goals in OS treatment. To this effect, optimizing the use of TKIs by identifying biomarkers predictive of response and assessing promising TKIs in larger-scale trials to validate the efficacy and safety outcomes relative to these drugs reported in phase II clinical trials. To this effect, it is necessary to identify biomarkers predictive of response to TKIs in larger-scale trials and to validate the efficacy and safety of these drugs reported in phase II clinical trials.

Abstract
The insulin-like growth factor receptor (IGF-1R) was among the most intensively pursued kinase targets in oncology. However, even after a slew of small-molecule and antibody therapeutics reached clinical trials for a range of solid tumors, the initial promise remains unfulfilled. Mechanisms of resistance to, and toxicities resulting from, IGF-1R-targeted drugs are well-catalogued, and there is general appreciation of the fact that a lack of biomarker-based patient stratification was a limitation of previous clinical trials. But no next-generation therapeutic strategies have yet successfully exploited this understanding in the clinic.Currently there is emerging interest in re-visiting IGF-1R targeted therapeutics in combination-treatment protocols with predictive biomarker-driven patient-stratification. One such biomarker that emerged from early clinical trials is the sub-cellular localization of IGF-1R. After providing some background on IGF-1R, its drugging history, and the trials that led to the termination of drug development for this target, we look more deeply into the correlation between sub-cellular localization of IGF-1R and susceptibility to various classes of IGF-1R - targeted agents.

Biomaterials 2023; 296:122076. [PMID: 36931102 PMCID: PMC11132719 DOI: 10.1016/j.biomaterials.2023.122076] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/03/2022] [Revised: 02/21/2023] [Accepted: 03/02/2023] [Indexed: 03/09/2023]
Abstract
The tumor microenvironment is a complex and dynamic ecosystem composed of various physical cues and biochemical signals that facilitate cancer progression, and tumor-associated macrophages are especially of interest as a treatable target due to their diverse pro-tumorigenic functions. Engineered three-dimensional models of tumors more effectively mimic the tumor microenvironment than monolayer cultures and can serve as a platform for investigating specific aspects of tumor biology within a controlled setting. To study the combinatorial effects of tumor-associated macrophages and microenvironment mechanical properties on osteosarcoma, we co-cultured human osteosarcoma cells with macrophages within biomaterials-based bone tumor niches with tunable stiffness. In the first 24 h of direct interaction between the two cell types, macrophages induced an inflammatory environment consisting of high concentrations of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα) and interleukin (IL)-6 within moderately stiff scaffolds. Expression of Yes-associated protein (YAP), but not its homolog, transcriptional activator with PDZ-binding motif (TAZ), in osteosarcoma cells was significantly higher than in macrophages, and co-culture of the two cells slightly upregulated YAP in both cells, although not to a significant degree. Resistance to doxorubicin treatment in osteosarcoma cells was correlated with inflammation in the microenvironment, and signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) inhibition diminished the inflammation-related differences in drug resistance but ultimately did not improve the efficacy of doxorubicin. This work highlights that the biochemical cues conferred by tumor-associated macrophages in osteosarcoma are highly variable, and signals derived from the immune system should be considered in the development and testing of novel drugs for cancer.
