Abstract Melanoma is a highly malignant form of skin cancer that typically originates from abnormal melanocytes. Despite significant advances in treating metastatic melanoma with immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy, substantial number patients do not respond to this treatment and face risks recurrence metastasis. This study collected data multiple datasets, including cohorts Riaz et al., Gide MGH, Abril-Rodriguez focusing on on-treatment samples during ICB therapy. We used the single-sample gene set enrichment analysis (ssGSEA) method calculate immunogenic cell death scores (ICDS) employed an elastic network algorithm construct model predicting efficacy. By analyzing 18 ICD signatures, we identified 9 key signatures effectively predict response for specimens. Results showed high had significantly higher rates therapy compared those low scores. ROC demonstrated AUC values both training validation sets were around 0.8, indicating good predictive performance. Additionally, survival revealed longer progression-free (PFS) overall (OS). identify related melanoma. These features can only efficacy but also provide references clinical decision-making. The results indicate plays important role immunotherapy expressing more accurately prognosis specimens, thus providing basis personalized treatment.

Immunotherapy holds significant promise for cancer treatment. However, the highly immunosuppressive nature of solid tumors limits its effectiveness. Herein, we developed bioactive zinc–nickel hydroxide (ZnNi(OH)4) nanosheets (NSs) that can effectively initiate paraptosis–pyroptosis positive feedback cycle through synergistic ionic effect, thereby mitigating immunosuppression and enhancing efficacy immunotherapy. The acid-sensitive ZnNi(OH)4 NSs releases Ni2+ Zn2+ in weakly acidic tumor microenvironment. released alleviated pyroptosis inhibition by inducing paraptosis inhibiting autophagic flux. Concurrently, triggered release endogenous within cell a coordination competition mechanism, further amplifying zinc overload-mediated pyroptosis. Interestingly, pyroptosis-associated oxidative stress endoplasmic reticulum promote Ni2+-mediated paraptosis, forming loop between paraptosis. This process not only kills cells but also stimulates strong inflammatory response, antitumor immune response immunotherapy efficacy. Overall, this study proposes an effective induction strategy based on metal ions demonstrates effectiveness potentiating

Abstract A variety of cell death pathways play critical roles in the onset and progression multiple diseases. Paraptosis, a unique form programmed death, has gained significant attention recent years. Unlike apoptosis necrosis, paraptosis is characterized by cytoplasmic vacuolization, swelling endoplasmic reticulum mitochondria, absence caspase activation. Numerous natural products, synthetic compounds, newly launched nanomedicines have been demonstrated to prime through paraptotic program may offer novel therapeutic strategies for cancer treatment.

Currently used drugs for glioblastoma (GBM) treatments are ineffective, primarily due to the significant challenges posed by strong drug resistance, poor blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability, and lack of tumor specificity. Here, we report two cationic fluorescent anticancer agents (TriPEX-ClO4 TriPEX-PF6) capable BBB penetration efficient GBM therapy via paraptosis ferroptosis induction. These aggregation-induced emission (AIE)-active specifically target mitochondria, effectively triggering ATF4/JNK/Alix-regulated GPX4-mediated ferroptosis. Specifically, they rapidly induce substantial cytoplasmic vacuolation, accompanied reactive oxygen species generation intracellular Ca2+ overload, thereby disrupting metabolisms inducing non-apoptotic cell death. In vivo imaging revealed that TriPEX-ClO4 TriPEX-PF6 successfully traversed orthotopic glioma initiated effective synergistic post-intravenous injection. Our AIE emerged as pioneering inducers against drug-resistant GBM, significantly extending survival up 40 days compared temozolomide (20 days) in GBM-bearing mice. compelling results open new venues development innovative brain diseases.
