Cancer progression results from activation of various signaling networks. Among these, PI3K/Akt contributes to proliferation, invasion, and inhibition apoptosis. Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a primary liver cancer with high incidence rate, especially in regions prevalence viral hepatitis infection. Autoimmune disorders, diabetes mellitus, obesity, alcohol consumption, inflammation can also lead initiation development HCC. The treatment HCC depends on the identification oncogenic factors that tumor cells develop resistance therapy. present review article focuses role progression. Activation promotes glucose uptake, favors glycolysis increases cell proliferation. It inhibits both apoptosis autophagy while promoting survival. stimulates epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) matrix-metalloproteinase (MMP) expression during metastasis. In addition increasing colony formation capacity facilitating spread cells, angiogenesis. Therefore, silencing prevents aggressive behavior. confer drug resistance, particularly sorafenib, decreases radio-sensitivity cells.

Due to rising incidence rates of liver cancer and worries about the toxicity current chemotherapeutic medicines, hunt for further alternative methods treat this malignancy has escalated. Compared chemotherapy, quercetin, a flavonoid, is relatively less harmful normal cells regarded as an excellent free-radical scavenger. Apoptotic cell death caused by quercetin been demonstrated many prior studies. It present in fruits, vegetables, herbs. Quercetin targets apoptosis, upregulating Bax, caspase-3, p21 while downregulating Akt, PLK-1, cyclin-B1, cyclin-A, CDC-2, CDK-2, Bcl-2. Additionally, it reported increase STAT3 protein degradation decreasing activation. potential future chemoprevention, based on substantial research its anticancer effects.

Lung cancer (LC) is a heterogeneous disease with high malignant degree, rapid growth, and early metastasis. The clinical outcomes of LC patients are generally poor due to the insufficient elucidation pathological mechanisms, low efficiency detection assessment methods, lack individualized therapeutic strategies. Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), including microRNA (miRNA), long non-coding RNA (lncRNA), circular (circRNA), endogenous regulators that widely involved in modulation almost all aspects life activities, from organogenesis aging immunity cancer. They commonly play vital roles various biological processes by regulating gene expression via their interactions DNA, RNA, or protein. An increasing amount studies have demonstrated ncRNAs closely correlated initiation development LC. Their dysregulation promotes progression distinct such as influencing protein activity, activating oncogenic signaling pathways, altering specific expression. Furthermore, some present certain values biomarker candidates targets for patients. A complete understanding mechanisms may be highly beneficial developing ncRNA-based therapeutics This review mainly focuses on intricate miRNA, lncRNA, circRNA discuss underlying applications treatment.

Abstract Multiple myeloma (MM) is the second most common hematological malignancy of plasma cells, characterized by osteolytic bone lesions, anemia, hypercalcemia, renal failure, and accumulation malignant cells. The pathogenesis MM involves interaction between cells marrow microenvironment through soluble cytokines cell adhesion molecules, which activate various signaling pathways such as PI3K/AKT/mTOR, RAS/MAPK, JAK/STAT, Wnt/β-catenin, NF-κB pathways. Aberrant activation these contributes to proliferation, survival, migration, drug resistance making them attractive targets for therapeutic intervention. Currently, approved drugs targeting in are limited, with many inhibitors inducers still preclinical or clinical research stages. Therapeutic options include non-targeted like alkylating agents, corticosteroids, immunomodulatory drugs, proteasome inhibitors, histone deacetylase inhibitors. Additionally, targeted monoclonal antibodies, chimeric antigen receptor T bispecific T-cell engagers, antibodies being used treatment. Despite significant advancements treatment, disease remains incurable, emphasizing need development novel combined therapies based on emerging theoretical knowledge, technologies, platforms. In this review, we highlight key role progression treatment MM, exploring advances therapy potential treatments offer further insights improving management outcomes.
