Abstract The current treatment of triple‐negative breast cancer (TNBC) is still primarily based on platinum‐based chemotherapy. However, TNBC cells frequently develop resistance to platinum and experience relapse after drug withdrawal. It crucial specifically target eliminate cisplatin‐tolerant administration. Here, it reported that upregulated N 6 ‐methyladenosine (m A) modification drives the development in during cisplatin treatment. Mechanistically, histone deacetylase 2 (HDAC2) mediates delactylation methyltransferase‐like 3 (METTL3), facilitating METTL3 interaction with Wilms’‐tumor‐1‐associated protein subsequently increasing m A transcript‐associated DNA damage repair. This ultimately promotes cell survival under cisplatin. Furthermore, pharmacological inhibition HDAC2 using Tucidinostat can enhance sensitivity therapy. study not only elucidates biological function lactylated tumor but also highlights its negative regulatory effect resistance. Additionally, underscores nonclassical functional mechanism as a HDAC inhibitor for improving efficacy against TNBC.

Lactate and its derivative, lactylation, play pivotal roles in modulating immune responses within the tumor microenvironment (TME), particularly T-cell-mediated cancer immunotherapy. Elevated lactate levels, a hallmark of Warburg effect, contribute to suppression through CD8+ T cell functionality by promoting regulatory (Treg) activity. Lactylation, post-translational modification (PTM), alters histone non-histone proteins, influencing gene expression further reinforcing suppression. In complex TME, are not only associated with but can also, under certain conditions, exert immunostimulatory effects that enhance cytotoxic responses. This review describes dual lactylation immunity, analyzing how these factors evasion, therapeutic resistance, activation.
