Abstract Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) followed by surgery is a standard approach for management of locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). Patients who do not respond well to NAC have poor prognosis. Despite extensive research, the mechanisms chemoresistance in ESCC remain largely unknown. Here, we established paired tumor organoids – designated as PreNAC-O and PostNAC-O from one patient before after NAC, respectively. Although two did exhibit significant differences proliferation, morphology or drug sensitivity vitro, tumorigenicity vivo was significantly higher than that PreNAC-O. Xenografts tended keratinization, while those displayed conspicuous necrotic areas. The xenografts during comparable without treatment. Furthermore, gene expression profiles suggested genes involved EMT and/or hypoxia response might be related PostNAC-O. Our data residual cancer had been enhanced, outweighing effects chemotherapy, rather being attributable intrinsic chemoresistance. Further studies are required clarify extent which cancers share common mechanism similar revealed here.

Cancer whose major problems are metastasis, treatment resistance, and recurrence is the leading cause of death worldwide. Tumor-initiating stem cells (TiSCs) a subset tumor population responsible for resistance relapse. Understanding characteristics shared features between tumor-initiating long-lived postmitotic may hold key to better understanding biology cancer. Postmitotic have exited cell cycle transitioned into non-dividing terminally differentiated state with specialized function within tissue. Conversely, cancer TiSC feature can divide produce variety progenies, disease progression, therapy immune system Surprisingly, our comprehensive evaluation TiSCs suggests common post-mitotic cells. They similar in structure (primary cilia, high mitochondrial content, being protected by barrier), metabolism (autophagy senescence), (immunoescape and/or immune-privileged blood barrier). In-depth exploration showed how contributes these features, including energy demands arising from ciliary microtubular functionality, increased metabolic activity, movement. These findings assist decoding remaining properties which offer insights TiSCs, potential implications enhancing strategies patient prognosis.

Abstract Pharmacological activation of hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1), a hypoxia-responsive transcription factor, has attracted increasing attention due to its efficacy not only in renal anemia but also various disease models. Our study demonstrated that HIF-1 activator enhanced extracellular vesicle (EV) production from cultured endothelial cells synergistically with adiponectin, an adipocyte-derived through both transcriptional induction and posttranscriptional stabilization adiponectin binding partner, T-cadherin. Increased EV levels were observed wild-type mice T-cadherin null after consecutive administration roxadustat. Adiponectin- T-cadherin-dependent increased may be involved the pleiotropic effects activators.
