ABSTRACT Background The relationship between hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and gut microbiota has gained attention for its impact on HCC immunotherapy. Methods Key microbial metabolites, including bile acids, toll‐like receptor 4, short‐chain fatty bacterial toxins, contribute to progression influence immune responses through the gut‐liver axis. As checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) become common in treatment, modulating offers new strategies enhance ICIs efficacy. However, individual differences composition introduce challenges, with some patients showing resistance ICIs. Results This review summarizes latest findings role of explores emerging therapeutic approaches, fecal transplantation, probiotics, antibiotics, natural compounds. Conclusions focus is translating these insights into personalized medicine optimize improve treatment outcomes.

RNA m6 methyladenosine (m6A) modifications impact tumor biology and immune processes, particularly in hepatocellular malignant tumors. Using a consensus clustering algorithm on 371 carcinoma (HCC) samples, we identified three m6A-modified subtypes correlated them with positive microenvironment (TME) markers for distinct phenotypes. Stratifying patients based m6A scores revealed low presentation group better penetration, lower mutation load, increased expression of checkpoint like CTLA-4 PD-1, suggesting enhanced responsiveness to immunization therapy. A machine-learning model 23 genes was constructed. Single-cell analysis surprising enrichment IGFBP3 astrocytes, prompting the exploration associated signaling pathways. Experimental verification shows that is significantly normal tissues, while immunohistochemical its indicating protective effect HCC good prognosis. Importantly, high outcomes receiving immunotherapy. Moreover, cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) experiments have confirmed stronger cell-killing ability. In summary, comprehensive evaluation modification, characteristics, single-cell this study not only TME but also made significant contributions progress personalized immunotherapy targeting IGFBP3.

Cervical squamous cell carcinoma (CESC), one of the most common malignancies in women, imposes a significant burden on women's health worldwide. Despite extensive research, molecular and pathogenic mechanisms cervical CESC remain unclear. This study aimed to explore immune-related genes, immune microenvironment infiltration, prognosis CESC, providing theoretical basis for guiding clinical treatment. Initially, by mining four gene sets from public databases, 14 genes associated with were identified. Through univariate multivariate COX regression analyses, as well lasso analysis, CESC-independent prognostic identified, model was constructed, dividing them into high low-risk groups. The correlation between these cells functions explored through ssGSEA enrichment revealing close association high-risk group processes such angiogenesis epithelial-mesenchymal transition. Furthermore, using databases qRT-PCR experiments, differences CXCL8 expression normal cancer discovered. Subsequently, knockdown plasmid efficiency validated two lines, MEG-01 HCE-1.
