ABSTRACT Lung cancer remains one of the most widespread and deadliest malignant tumors globally, with a particularly high mortality rate among all cancers. Recently, immunotherapy, immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), has emerged as crucial treatment strategy for lung patients, following surgical intervention, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, targeted drug therapies. However, therapeutic limitations are caused owing to their low response undesirable side effects such immune‐related pneumonitis. Therefore, developing new strategies improve efficacy ICIs while minimizing adverse events will be immunotherapy. The tumor microenvironment plays significant role in success immunosuppressive characteristics major obstacles poor immunotherapeutic effect. Phytochemicals, naturally occurring compounds plants, have shown promise enhancing immunotherapy by remodeling microenvironment, offering potential increase ICIs. this review summarizes associated mechanisms phytochemicals cancer. Additionally, focus on synergistic combining ICIs, aiming anticancer reduce effects, which may hopefully offer novel overcome current

Abstract Although cancer chemopreventive agents have been confirmed to effectively protect high-risk populations from invasion or recurrence, only over ten drugs approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Therefore, screening potent is crucial reduce constantly increasing incidence mortality rate of cancer. Considering lengthy prevention process, an ideal agent should be nontoxic, inexpensive, oral. Natural compounds become a natural treasure reservoir for chemoprevention because their superior ease availability, cost-effectiveness, safety. The benefits as in various studies. In light this, present review intended fully delineate entire scope chemoprevention, primarily focuses on aspects based compounds, specifically focusing mechanism action prevention, discussing detail how they exert effects affecting classical signaling pathways, immune checkpoints, gut microbiome. We also introduce novel strategies summarize role improving chemotherapy regimens. Furthermore, we describe discovering anticancer with low abundance high activity, revealing broad prospects drug discovery chemoprevention. Moreover, associate precision medicine, discuss challenges encountered Finally, emphasize transformative potential advancing field ability more effective less toxic preventive options oncology.

The gut microbiota plays a significant role in tumor pathogenesis by regulating the host metabolism and immune response, there are few studies focused on tracking changes from onset of lung cancer. Therefore, aim our study is combining preclinical clinical research to thoroughly analyze signatures fecal cancer, which will be useful for early diagnosis predicting therapeutic efficacy first part this analyzed metagenomic differences between patients with non-small cell cancer healthy subjects, second work constructed murine model monitor mouse metagenomics T immunology during progression. We found that was altered both humans mice characterized significantly reduced microbial diversity number beneficial microbes, increases potential pathogens. level Akkermansia muciniphila metabolic module secondary bile acid were diminished compared subjects. Splenomegaly observed mice. Flow cytometer analysis splenocytes revealed substantial alterations proportions subsets mice, CD4+Foxp3+CD25+ regulatory cells (p < 0.05) while decreases CD3+ 0.001), CD4+ CD4+/CD8+ ratio 0.01). Vertical longitudinal analyses two groups identified some biomarkers (including Acutalibacter timonensis, Lachnospiraceae bacterium NSJ-38 sp014337195, etc.). had neurotransmitters (melatonin, γ-aminobutyric acid, histamine) In summary, diversity, structure, composition vary conditions, ultimately leading functional metagenomics.

Abstract This study aimed to investigate the role of autophagy, ferroptosis, and pyroptosis in antitumour mechanism harmine (Har) its crosstalk ovarian cancer. By transmission electron microscopy, we found that compared with those control group, cytoplasm human cancer cells (SKOV3) treated Har showed increased numbers autophagic vesicles, decreased intracellular mitochondrial volume, bilayer membrane density, cristae. Western blot, immunofluorescence, monodasylcadaverine (MDC) staining all suggested promoted autophagy SKOV3 cells. LY294002 siFOXO3 rescued inhibition PI3K/AKT/mTOR/FOXO3 signalling pathway promotion by Har. Additionally, levels ferroptosis- pyroptosis-related proteins Fe 2+ , glutathione (GSH), malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD) ferroptosis Interestingly, pretreatment chloroquine (CQ), erastin, rapamycin (Rap), or ferrostatin-1 (Fer-1) reversed Har, respectively. In vivo, volume tumours group was decreased, immunohistochemistry revealed Ki-67 GPX4 ATG5 NARL3. conclusion, exerts anti-ovarian effect not only promoting regulating but also pyroptosis. there is complex between

The Programmed death-1 (PD-1) and its programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) comprise the PD-1/PD-L1 axis maintain tumor immune evasion. Cancer immunotherapy based on anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibodies is most promising anti-tumor treatment available but currently facing thorny problem of unsatisfactory outcomes. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), with rich heritage medicine monomers, herbal formulas, physical therapies like acupuncture, moxibustion, catgut implantation, a multi-component multi-target system known for enhancing immunity preventing spread disease. TCM often used as an adjuvant therapy cancer in clinical practices, recent studies have demonstrated synergistic effects combining immunotherapy. In this review, we examined role escape while exploring how can modulate to improve efficacy Our findings suggest that enhance by reducing expression PD-1 PD-L1, regulating T-cell function, improving microenvironment, intestinal flora. We hope review may serve valuable resource future sensitization checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) therapy.

Immunotherapies, such as immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) and chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells, have revolutionized the treatment of patients with advanced metastatic tumors resistant to traditional therapies. However, immunosuppressed tumor microenvironment (TME) results in a weak response immunotherapy. Therefore, realize full potential immunotherapy obstacle barriers, it is essential explore how convert cold TME hot TME.
