Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) have gained much attention as pivotal component tumor microenvironment. The versatility sophisticated mechanisms CAFs in facilitating progression been elucidated extensively, including promoting angiogenesis metastasis, inducing drug resistance, reshaping extracellular matrix, developing an immunosuppressive Owing to their robust tumor-promoting function, are considered promising target for oncotherapy. However, highly heterogeneous group cells. Some subpopulations exert inhibitory role growth, which implies that CAF-targeting approaches must be more precise individualized. This review comprehensively summarize origin, phenotypical, functional heterogeneity CAFs. More importantly, we underscore advances strategies clinical trials CAF various cancers, also progressions immunotherapy.

Transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) signaling regulates cell-specific programs involved in embryonic development, wound-healing, and immune homeostasis. Yet, during tumor progression, these TGF-β-mediated are altered, leading to epithelial cell plasticity a reprogramming of cells into mesenchymal lineages through epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT), critical developmental program morphogenesis organogenesis. These changes, turn, lead enhanced carcinoma invasion, metastasis, differentiation, evasion, chemotherapy resistance. Here, we discuss EMT as one the associated with influence exerted by TGF-β on status function.

Succinate, traditionally viewed as a mere intermediate of the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, has emerged critical mediator in inflammation. Disruptions within TCA cycle lead to an accumulation succinate mitochondrial matrix. This excess subsequently diffuses into cytosol and is released extracellular space. Elevated cytosolic levels stabilize hypoxia-inducible factor-1α by inhibiting prolyl hydroxylases, which enhances inflammatory responses. Notably, also acts extracellularly signaling molecule engaging receptor 1 on immune cells, thus modulating their pro-inflammatory or anti-inflammatory activities. Alterations have been associated with various disorders, including rheumatoid arthritis, bowel disease, obesity, atherosclerosis. These associations are primarily due exaggerated cell Given its central role inflammation, targeting pathways offers promising therapeutic avenues for these diseases. paper provides extensive review succinate's involvement processes highlights potential targets future research possibilities development.

Redox signaling acts as a critical mediator in the dynamic interactions between organisms and their external environment, profoundly influencing both onset progression of various diseases. Under physiological conditions, oxidative free radicals generated by mitochondrial respiratory chain, endoplasmic reticulum, NADPH oxidases can be effectively neutralized NRF2-mediated antioxidant responses. These responses elevate synthesis superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase, well key molecules like nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) glutathione (GSH), thereby maintaining cellular redox homeostasis. Disruption this finely tuned equilibrium is closely linked to pathogenesis wide range Recent advances have broadened our understanding molecular mechanisms underpinning dysregulation, highlighting pivotal roles genomic instability, epigenetic modifications, protein degradation, metabolic reprogramming. findings provide foundation for exploring regulation mechanistic basis improving therapeutic strategies. While antioxidant-based therapies shown early promise conditions where stress plays primary pathological role, efficacy diseases characterized complex, multifactorial etiologies remains controversial. A deeper, context-specific signaling, particularly redox-sensitive proteins, designing targeted aimed at re-establishing balance. Emerging small molecule inhibitors that target specific cysteine residues proteins demonstrated promising preclinical outcomes, setting stage forthcoming clinical trials.

The cellular response hypoxia controlled by Hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs), family transcription factors. HIFs promote the gene products play role in tumor progression including proliferation, angiogenesis, metastasis, and drug resistance. HIF-1 HIF-2 are well known widely described. Although these proteins share high degree homology, have non-redundant roles cancer. In this review, we summarize similarities differences between HIF-1α HIF-2α their structure, expression, DNA binding. We also discuss canonical non-canonical regulation under hypoxic normal conditions. Finally, outline recent strategies aimed at targeting and/or HIF-2α.

Abstract Cellular senescence and hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) signaling are crucial in pulmonary aging age-related lung diseases such as chronic obstructive disease idiopathic fibrosis cancer. HIF plays a pivotal role cellular adaptation to hypoxia, regulating processes like angiogenesis, metabolism, inflammation. Meanwhile, leads irreversible cell cycle arrest, triggering the senescence-associated secretory phenotype which contributes inflammation, tissue remodeling, fibrosis. Dysregulation of these pathways accelerates progression by promoting oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, epigenetic alterations. Recent studies indicate that interact at multiple levels, where can both induce suppress senescence, depending on conditions. While transient activation supports repair stress resistance, dysregulation exacerbates pathologies. Furthermore, emerging evidence suggests targeting could offer new therapeutic strategies mitigate diseases. This review explores intricate crosstalk between mechanisms, shedding light how their interplay influences progression. Additionally, we discuss potential interventions, including senolytic therapies modulators, enhance health longevity.
