Abstract Inflammation is a complex physiological process triggered in response to harmful stimuli 1 . It involves cells of the immune system capable clearing sources injury and damaged tissues. Excessive inflammation can occur as result infection hallmark several diseases 2–4 The molecular bases underlying inflammatory responses are not fully understood. Here we show that cell surface glycoprotein CD44, which marks acquisition distinct phenotypes context development, immunity cancer progression, mediates uptake metals including copper. We identify pool chemically reactive copper (ii) mitochondria macrophages catalyses NAD(H) redox cycling by activating hydrogen peroxide. Maintenance NAD + enables metabolic epigenetic programming towards state. Targeting mitochondrial with supformin (LCC-12), rationally designed dimer metformin, induces reduction pool, leading states oppose macrophage activation. LCC-12 interferes plasticity other settings reduces mouse models bacterial viral infections. Our work highlights central role regulator unveils therapeutic strategy based on reprogramming control states.

Clear cell renal carcinoma (ccRCC) is the most prevalent subtype of carcinoma, which characterized by metabolic reprogramming. Cuproptosis, a novel form death, highly linked to mitochondrial metabolism and mediated protein lipoylation. However, clinical impacts cuproptosis-related genes (CRGs) in ccRCC largely remain unclear. In current study, we systematically evaluated genetic alterations ccRCC. Our results revealed that CDKN2A, DLAT, DLD, FDX1, GLS, PDHA1 PDHB exhibited differential expression between normal tissues (|log2(fold change)| > 2/3 p < 0.05). Utilizing an iterative sure independence screening (SIS) method, separately constructed prognostic signature CRGs for predicting overall survival (OS) progression-free (PFS) patients. The score yielded area under curve (AUC) 0.658 0.682 prediction 5-year OS PFS, respectively. Kaplan−Meier analysis OS, higher risk gene was significantly correlated with worse (HR = 2.72 (2.01−3.68), log-rank 1.76 × 10−7). Patients had shorter PFS 2.83 (2.08−3.85), 3.66 Two independent validation datasets (GSE40435 (N 101), GSE53757 72)) were collected meta-analysis, suggesting CDKN2A (log2(fold change) 1.46, 95%CI: 1.75−2.35) showed while DLAT −0.54, −0.93−−0.15) FDX1 −1.01, −1.61−−0.42) lowly expressed. also associated immune infiltration levels programmed death 1 (PD-1) (CDKN2A: r 0.24, 2.14 10−8; FDX1: −0.17, 1.37 10−4). conclusion, could serve as potential predictor patients may offer insights into cancer treatment.

Cuproptosis is a new cell death that depends on copper (Cu) ionophores to transport Cu into cancer cells, which induces death. However, existing are small molecules with short blood half-life making it hard enough cells. Herein, reactive oxygen species (ROS)-sensitive polymer (PHPM) designed, used co-encapsulate elesclomol (ES) and form nanoparticles (NP@ESCu). After entering ES Cu, triggered by excessive intracellular ROS, readily released. work in concerted way not only kill cells cuproptosis, but also induce immune responses. In vitro, the ability of NP@ESCu efficiently cuproptosis investigated. addition, change transcriptomes treated explored RNA-Seq. vivo, found mice model subcutaneous bladder cancer, reprograming tumor microenvironment. Additionally, further combined anti-programmed protein ligand-1 antibody (αPD-L1). This study provides first report combining nanomedicine can αPD-L1 for enhanced therapy, thereby providing novel strategy future therapy.

Aims Cuproptosis is a recently identified form of programmed cell death; however, its role in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains unclear. Methods A set bioinformatic tools was integrated to analyze the expression and prognostic significance ferredoxin 1 ( FDX1 ), key regulator cuproptosis. cuproptosis-related risk score (CRRS) developed via correlation analyses, least absolute shrinkage selection operator (LASSO) Cox regression, multivariate regression. The metabolic features, mutation signatures, immune profile CRRS-classified HCC patients were investigated, CRRS therapy guidance analyzed. Results significantly downregulated HCC, high associated with longer survival time. high-CRRS group showed lower overall (OS) enriched cancer-related pathways. Mutation analyses revealed that had mutational frequency some tumor suppressors such as protein P53 TP53 ) Breast-cancer susceptibility gene (BRCA1)-associated BAP1 low catenin beta CTNNB1 ). Besides, an increase protumor infiltrates checkpoints. Moreover, area under curve (AUC) values predicting efficiency sorafenib non-responsiveness transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) reached 0.877 0.764, respectively.

The endoplasmic reticulum is an important intracellular organelle that plays role in maintaining cellular homeostasis. Endoplasmic stress (ERS) and unfolded protein response (UPR) are induced when the body exposed to adverse external stimuli. It has been established ERS can induce different cell death modes, including autophagy, apoptosis, ferroptosis, pyroptosis, through three major transmembrane receptors on ER membrane, inositol requirement enzyme 1α, kinase-like kinase activating transcription factor 6. These modes of play occurrence development various diseases, such as neurodegenerative inflammation, metabolic liver injury. As largest organ, rich enzymes, carries out functions metabolism secretion, body's main site synthesis. Accordingly, a well-developed system present hepatocytes help perform its physiological functions.
