An effective coordination of immune and non-immune cells is essential for generating optimal regional immunity to combat tumorigenesis infection at barrier tissues such as lung. Regional structures inducible bronchus-associated lymphoid tissue (iBALT) tertiary structure (TLS) play roles in modulating lung local responses. While the identification iBALTs or TLS generally dependent on conventional histology, it remains poorly understood how are spatiotemporally coordinated single-cell resolution effectively eliminate malignant invading pathogens. Recently studies have revealed presence dendritic cell (DC)-T hubs human with close association tumor immunotherapy response [1], antiviral [2], inflammation [3].

The tumor microenvironment functions as a dynamic and intricate ecosystem, comprising diverse array of cellular non-cellular components that precisely orchestrate pivotal behaviors, including invasion, metastasis, drug resistance. While unraveling the interplay between behaviors represents tremendous challenge, recent research illuminates crucial biological phenomenon known mechanotransduction. Within microenvironment, mechanical cues like tensile stress, shear stiffness play role by activating mechanosensitive effectors such PIEZO proteins, integrins, Yes-associated protein. This activation initiates cascades intrinsic signaling pathways, effectively linking physical properties tissues to their physiological pathophysiological processes morphogenesis, regeneration, immunity. mechanistic insight offers novel perspective on how within impact behaviors. intricacies are yet be fully elucidated, it exhibits distinct attributes from non-malignant tissues, elevated solid stresses, interstitial hypertension, augmented matrix stiffness, enhanced viscoelasticity. These traits exert notable influences progression treatment responses, enriching our comprehension multifaceted nature microenvironment. Through this innovative review, we aim provide new lens decipher contexts, broadening knowledge these factors promote or inhibit thus offering valuable insights identify potential targets for anti-tumor strategies.

Although lymphatic vessels (LVs) are present in many tumors, their importance cancer has long been underestimated. In contrast to the well-studied tumor-associated blood vessels, LVs were previously considered function as passive conduits for tumor metastasis. However, emerging evidence over last two decades shed light on critical role locally shaping microenvironment (TME). Here we review involvement of progression, metastasis, and modulation anti-tumor immune response.

Disulfidptosis is a newly discovered form of cell death, and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play crucial role in tumor growth, migration, recurrence, drug resistance, particularly bladder cancer (BLCA). This study aims to investigate disulfidptosis-related lncRNAs (DRLs) as potential prognostic markers for BLCA patients. Utilizing single-cell sequencing data, RNA corresponding clinical information sourced from the GEO TCGA databases, this conducted annotation intercellular communication analyses identify differentially expressed disulfide death-related genes (DRGs). Subsequently, Pearson correlation Cox regression were employed discern DRLs that correlate with overall survival. A model was constructed through LASSO analysis based on DRLs, complemented by multivariate analysis. The performance rigorously evaluated using Kaplan-Meier analysis, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, area under ROC curve (AUC). Furthermore, investigation delved into signaling pathways, immune status, mutation burden (TMB), responses anticancer therapies associated varying prognoses patients BLCA. We identified twelve DRGs elucidated their relationships. Notably, epithelial cells function ligands, other types, interactions between both monocytes endothelial exhibiting strongest connectivity. six BLCA-namely, C1RL-AS1, GK-AS1, AC134349.1, AC104785.1, AC011092.3, AC009951.6, nomogram improve predictive accuracy model.
