Tumor-promoting niche after incomplete surgery resection (SR) can lead to more aggressive local progression and distant metastasis with augmented angiogenesis-immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME). Herein, elevated neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) cancer-associated neurotransmitters (CANTs, e.g., catecholamines) are firstly identified as two of the dominant inducements. Further, an injectable fibrin-alginate hydrogel high tissue adhesion has been constructed specifically co-deliver NETs inhibitor (DNase I)-encapsulated PLGA nanoparticles unselective β-adrenergic receptor blocker (propranolol). The components (i.e., fibrin alginate) respond triggers (thrombin Ca2+, respectively) in postoperative bleeding gelate, shaping into interpenetrating network (IPN) featuring strength. continuous release DNase I PR wreck antagonize catecholamines decrease microvessel density, blockade myeloid-derived suppressor cells, secrete various proinflammatory cytokines, potentiate natural killer cell function hamper cytotoxic T exhaustion. reprogrammed TME significantly suppress locally residual tumors, induce strong immune memory effects thus inhibit lung metastasis. Thus, targetedly degrading blocking CANTs enabled by this in-situ IPN-based drug depot provides a simple efficient approach against SR-induced cancer recurrence

Tumor-Associated Neutrophils in Colorectal Cancer Development, Progression and Immunotherapy

Cancers, Journal Year: 2022, Volume and Issue: 14(19), P. 4755 - 4755

Published: Sept. 29, 2022

The colorectal-cancer (CRC) incidence rate and mortality have remained high for several years. In recent years, immune-checkpoint-inhibitor (ICI) therapy has rapidly developed. However, it is only effective in a few CRC patients with microsatellite-instability-high (MSI-H) or mismatch-repair-deficient (dMMR) CRC. How to improve the efficiency of ICI microsatellite stability (MSS) remains huge obstacle. Tumor-associated neutrophils (TANs), which are similar macrophages, also N1 N2 phenotypes. They can be recruited polarized through different cytokines chemokines, then play an antitumor tumor-promoting role. CRC, we find that prognostic significance TANs still controversial. this review, describe regulation TANs, their mechanism promoting tumor progression by boosting transformation inflammation into tumors, facilitating tumor-cell proliferation, metastasis angiogenesis. targeting combined ICIs may new treatment model Relevant animal experiments shown good responses, clinical trials been carried out succession. as “assistants” treatment, become key success immunotherapy, although no significant results obtained.

Published: April 18, 2023

Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) is an important process involved in the pathogenesis of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), but potential mechanisms NETs contributing to SLE at genetic level have not been clearly investigated. This investigation aimed explore molecular characteristics NETs-related genes (NRGs) based on bioinformatics analysis, and identify associated reliable biomarkers clusters. Dataset GSE45291 was acquired from Gene Expression Omnibus repository used as a training set for subsequent analysis. A total 1006 differentially expressed (DEGs) were obtained, most which with multiple viral infections. The interaction DEGs NRGs revealed 8 (DE-NRGs). correlation protein-protein analyses these DE-NRGs performed. Among them, HMGB1, ITGB2, CREB5 selected hub by random forest, support vector machine, least absolute shrinkage selection operator algorithms. significant diagnostic value confirmed three validation sets (GSE81622, GSE61635, GSE122459). Additionally, sub-clusters identified genes' expression profiles analyzed unsupervised consensus cluster assessment. Functional enrichment performed among subgroups, data that 1 highly prevalent innate immune response pathways while 3 enriched adaptive pathways. Moreover, infiltration analysis also cells markedly infiltrated upregulated 3. As per our knowledge, this first SLE, (HMGB1, CREB5), distinct clusters biomarkers.

The lipid-metabolism enzyme ECI2 reduces neutrophil extracellular traps formation for colorectal cancer suppression

Abnormalities in ether lipid metabolism as well the formation of neutrophil extracellular traps have recently been recognized detrimental factors affecting tumorigenesis and progression. However, role abnormal colorectal cancer (CRC) evolution has not reported. Here we show that metabolism-related gene enoyl-CoA δ-isomerase 2 (ECI2) plays a tumor-suppressor CRC is negatively associated with poor prognosis patients. We mechanistically demonstrate ECI2 reduces lipid-mediated Interleukin 8 (IL-8) expression leading to decreased recruitment for suppression. In particular, inhibits production cells by inhibiting peroxisomal localization alkylglycerone phosphate synthase (AGPS), rate-limiting enzyme synthesis. These findings only deepen our understanding metabolic reprogramming interactions progression CRC, but also provide ideas identifying potential diagnostic markers therapeutic targets CRC.

A systematic exposure‐wide framework leveraging machine learning to identify multidomain exposure factors and their joint influence on cognitive function: Evidence from a neurological cohort

Alzheimer s & Dementia, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 21(2)

Published: Feb. 1, 2025

Abstract INTRODUCTION Cognitive decline has become a growing public concern, yet large‐scale exposure data identifying the contributing factors remain limited. METHODS We conducted an exposure‐wide association study involving 1142 participants and 207 exposures, using machine learning to assess relative contribution joint effects of key factors. Cluster analysis intervention simulation trials helped identify high‐risk subpopulations potential benefits targeted interventions. RESULTS In adjusted mixed models, socioeconomic status domain emerged as strongest predictor longitudinal global cognitive score ( β = 2.91, p < 0.0001, q 0.0001), while dietary also played important role in memory function. The cluster found that “unfavorable lifestyle” dominated phenotype was associated with poorest outcomes. Simulation indicated scores could improve by shifting individuals from unfavorable favorable phenotypes. DISCUSSION health requires multidomain interventions, particularly fields, necessitates collaboration between government individuals. Highlights design, which assesses broad range is used novel variables understand their contributions findings indicate most significant contributor function, diet plays largest Increasing proportion phenotypes through interventions can significantly enhance health.
