Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 63(31)

Опубликована: Май 21, 2024

Abstract An optimal cancer chemotherapy regimen should effectively address the drug resistance of tumors while eliciting antitumor‐immune responses. Research has shown that non‐apoptotic cell death, such as pyroptosis and ferroptosis, can enhance immune response. Despite this, there been limited investigation reporting on mechanisms oncosis its correlation with Herein, we designed synthesized a Ru(II) complex targeted nucleus mitochondria to induce oncosis. Briefly, disrupts DNA, which active polyADP‐ribose polymerase 1, accompanied by ATP consumption porimin activation. Concurrently, mitochondrial damage endoplasmic reticulum stress result in release Ca 2+ ions increased expression Calpain 1. Subsequently, specific pore proteins 1 promote cristae destruction or vacuolation, ultimately leading membrane rupture. The analysis RNA sequencing demonstrates initiate oncosis‐associated pathway activate both innate adaptive immunity. In vivo experiments have confirmed promotes dendritic maturation awakens cytotoxic T lymphocytes but also activates inducing polarization macrophages towards an M1 phenotype.

Abstract Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), presently the second leading cause of global cancer‐related mortality, continues to pose significant challenges in realm medical oncology, impacting both clinical drug selection and mechanistic research. Recent investigations have unveiled autophagy‐related signaling as a promising avenue for HCC treatment. A growing body research has highlighted pivotal role autophagy‐modulating natural products inhibiting progression. In this context, we provide concise overview fundamental autophagy mechanism delineate involvement autophagic pathways development. Additionally, review pertinent studies demonstrating how regulate mitigate HCC. Our findings indicate that exhibit cytotoxic effects through induction excessive autophagy, simultaneously impeding cell proliferation by inhibition, thereby depriving cells essential energy. These been associated with various pathways, including PI3K/AKT, MAPK, AMPK, Wnt/β‐catenin, Beclin‐1, ferroautophagy. results underscore considerable therapeutic potential However, it is important note present study did not establish definitive thresholds or inhibition products. Further domain imperative gain comprehensive insights into dual equipping us better understanding double‐edged sword management.
