    Abstract Summary: Tumor fitness coessentiality gene analysis that aims to expand the repertoire of druggable targets reveals a novel ubiquitin ligase complex, the BICR6 module. Along with the other complex members (UBA6, KCMF1, and UBR4), BIRC6 selectively contributes to the survival of a subset of epithelial tumors with a high degree of aneuploidy by ubiquitinating and suppressing HRI, a component of the integrated stress response adaptive pathway. See related article by Cervia et al., p. 766 (2).

    Abstract A recent study reported results from a clinical trial in cats and from experiments in mini-pigs in which a single dose of radiotherapy was delivered at ultrahigh dose rates (FLASH). There was acceptable acute toxicity; however, some animals suffered severe late toxicity, raising caution in the design of future trials. See related article by Rohrer Bley et al., p. 3814.

    Abstract DNA damage and repair studies are at the core of the radiation biology field and represent also the fundamental principles informing radiation therapy (RT). DNA damage levels are a function of radiation dose, whereas the type of damage and biological effects such as DNA damage complexity, depend on radiation quality that is linear energy transfer (LET). Both levels and types of DNA damage determine cell fate, which can include necrosis, apoptosis, senescence or autophagy. Herein, we present an overview of current RT modalities in the light of DNA damage and repair with emphasis on medium to high-LET radiation. Proton radiation is discussed along with its new adaptation of FLASH RT. RT based on α-particles includes brachytherapy and nuclear-RT, that is proton-boron capture therapy (PBCT) and boron-neutron capture therapy (BNCT). We also discuss carbon ion therapy along with combinatorial immune-based therapies and high-LET RT. For each RT modality, we summarise relevant DNA damage studies. Finally, we provide an update of the role of DNA repair in high-LET RT and we explore the biological responses triggered by differential LET and dose.

    Abstract Cancer cells encounter numerous stresses that pose a threat to their survival. Tumor microenviroment stresses that perturb protein homeostasis can produce endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, which can be counterbalanced by triggering the unfolded protein response (UPR) which is considered the canonical ER stress response. The UPR is characterized by three major proteins that lead to specific changes in transcriptional and translational programs in stressed cells. Activation of the UPR can induce apoptosis, but also can induce cytoprotective programs such as autophagy. There is increasing appreciation for the role that UPR-induced autophagy plays in supporting tumorigenesis and cancer therapy resistance. More recently several new pathways that connect cell stresses, components of the UPR and autophagy have been reported, which together can be viewed as non-canonical ER stress responses. Here we review recent findings on the molecular mechanisms by which canonical and non-canonical ER stress responses can activate cytoprotective autophagy and contribute to tumor growth and therapy resistance. Autophagy has been identified as a druggable pathway, however the components of autophagy (ATG genes) have proven difficult to drug. It may be the case that targeting the UPR or non-canonical ER stress programs can more effectively block cytoprotective autophagy to enhance cancer therapy. A deeper understanding of these pathways could provide new therapeutic targets in cancer.

    Abstract Modern oncologic therapies and care have resulted in a growing population of cancer survivors with comorbid, chronic health conditions. As an example, many survivors have an increased risk of cardiovascular complications secondary to cardiotoxic systemic and radiation therapies. In response, the field of cardio-oncology has emerged as an integral component of oncologic patient care, committed to the early diagnosis and treatment of adverse cardiac events. However, as current clinical management of cancer therapy-related cardiovascular disease remains limited by a lack of phenotypic data, implementation of precision medicine approaches has become a focal point for deep phenotyping strategies. In particular, -omics approaches (a field of study in biology ending in -omic, such as genomics, proteomics, or metabolomics) have shown enormous potential in identifying sensitive biomarkers of cardiovascular disease, applying sophisticated, pattern-revealing technologies to growing databases of biologic molecules. Moreover, the use of -omics to inform radiologic strategies may add a dimension to future clinical practices. In this review, we present a paradigm for a precision medicine approach to the care of cardiotoxin-exposed cancer patients. We discuss the role of current imaging techniques; demonstrate how -omics can advance our understanding of disease phenotypes; and describe how molecular imaging can be integrated to personalize surveillance and therapeutics, ultimately reducing cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in cancer patients and survivors.
