Abstract Cancer is one of the leading causes death worldwide, and factors responsible for its progression need to be elucidated. Exosomes are structures with an average size 100 nm that can transport proteins, lipids, nucleic acids. This review focuses on role exosomes in cancer therapy. We discuss how able modulate components tumor microenvironment influence proliferation migration rates cells. also highlight that, depending their cargo, suppress or promote cell enhance reduce response radio- chemo-therapies. In addition, we describe trigger chronic inflammation lead immune evasion by focusing ability transfer non-coding RNAs between cells other molecular signaling pathways such as PTEN PI3K/Akt cancer. Subsequently, use carriers anti-tumor agents genetic tools control progression. then tumor-derived carcinogenesis. Finally, devote a section study diagnostic prognostic clinical courses important treatment patients. provides comprehensive understanding therapy, therapeutic value remodeling microenvironment.

Abstract Background One of the most malignant tumors in men is prostate cancer that still incurable due to its heterogenous and progressive natures. Genetic epigenetic changes play significant roles development. The RNA molecules with more than 200 nucleotides length are known as lncRNAs these factors do not encode protein. They regulate gene expression at transcriptional, post-transcriptional levels. LncRNAs vital biological functions cells pathological events, hence their undergoes dysregulation. Aim review role alterations development emphasized here. Therefore, were chosen for this purpose level interaction other signaling networks progression examined. Key scientific concepts aberrant has been well-documented rate tumor regulated via affecting STAT3, NF-κB, Wnt, PI3K/Akt PTEN, among molecular pathways. Furthermore, radio-resistance chemo-resistance features cells. Overexpression tumor-promoting such HOXD-AS1 CCAT1 can result drug resistance. Besides, induce immune evasion upregulating PD-1. Pharmacological compounds quercetin curcumin have applied targeting lncRNAs. siRNA tool reduce thereby suppressing progression. Prognosis diagnosis clinical course be evaluated by exosomal lncRNA-p21 investigated serum patients a reliable biomarker.

Abstract Prostate cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and new estimates revealed prostate as the in men 2021. Therefore, strategies are pertinent treatment this malignant disease. Macroautophagy/autophagy “self-degradation” mechanism capable facilitating turnover long-lived toxic macromolecules organelles. Recently, attention has been drawn towards role autophagy how its modulation provides effective therapy. In present review, we provide mechanistic discussion cancer. Autophagy can promote/inhibit proliferation survival cells. Besides, metastasis cells affected (via induction inhibition) by autophagy. affect response to therapy such chemotherapy radiotherapy, given close association between apoptosis. Increasing evidence demonstrated that upstream mediators AMPK, non-coding RNAs, KLF5, MTOR others regulate Anti-tumor compounds, for instance phytochemicals, dually inhibit or induce For improving therapy, nanotherapeutics chitosan nanoparticles have developed. With respect context-dependent cancer, genetic tools siRNA CRISPR-Cas9 be utilized targeting autophagic genes. Finally, these findings translated into preclinical clinical studies improve prognosis patients. Graphical abstract

One of the malignant tumors in women that has involved both developed and developing countries is breast cancer. Similar to other types tumors, cancer cells demonstrate high metastatic nature. Besides, tumor have ability drug resistance. EMT related mechanism metastasis focus current manuscript highlighting function malignancy Breast increase their migration by induction During EMT, N-cadherin vimentin levels increase, E-cadherin decrease mediate EMT-induced invasion. Different kinds anti-cancer agents such as tamoxifen, cisplatin paclitaxel mediates chemoresistance feature cells. Furthermore, correlates with radio-resistance tumor. Clinical aspect reversing preventing chemotherapy or radiotherapy failure patients improving survival time. The anti-tumor suppress can be used for decreasing invasion increasing chemosensitivity lncRNAs, miRNAs factors modulate progression are discussed here.

Cancer progression results from activation of various signaling networks. Among these, PI3K/Akt contributes to proliferation, invasion, and inhibition apoptosis. Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a primary liver cancer with high incidence rate, especially in regions prevalence viral hepatitis infection. Autoimmune disorders, diabetes mellitus, obesity, alcohol consumption, inflammation can also lead initiation development HCC. The treatment HCC depends on the identification oncogenic factors that tumor cells develop resistance therapy. present review article focuses role progression. Activation promotes glucose uptake, favors glycolysis increases cell proliferation. It inhibits both apoptosis autophagy while promoting survival. stimulates epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) matrix-metalloproteinase (MMP) expression during metastasis. In addition increasing colony formation capacity facilitating spread cells, angiogenesis. Therefore, silencing prevents aggressive behavior. confer drug resistance, particularly sorafenib, decreases radio-sensitivity cells.

The failure of chemotherapy is a major challenge nowadays, and in order to ensure effective treatment cancer patients, it great importance reveal the molecular pathways mechanisms involved chemoresistance. Cisplatin (CP) platinum-containing drug with anti-tumor activity against different cancers both pre-clinical clinical studies. However, resistance has restricted its potential patients. CP can promote levels free radicals, particularly reactive oxygen species (ROS) induce cell death. Due double-edged sword role ROS as pro-survival or pro-death mechanism, result resistance. In present review, association sensitivity/resistance discussed, particular, how pathways, upstream downstream targets, affect response cells chemotherapy. Furthermore, compounds, such curcumin, emodin, chloroquine that regulate related increasing sensitivity are described. Nanoparticles provide co-delivery agents by mediating photodynamic therapy, overgeneration trigger sensitivity.
