    Abstract Autophagy, a lysosome-mediated cellular degradation pathway, recycles intracellular components to maintain metabolic balance and survival. Autophagy plays an important role in tumor immunotherapy as a "double-edged sword" that can both promote and inhibit tumor progression. Autophagy acts on innate and adaptive immunity and interacts with immune cells to modulate tumor immunotherapy. The discovery of autophagy inducers and autophagy inhibitors also provides new insights for clinical anti-tumor therapy. However, there are also difficulties in the application of autophagy-related regulators, such as low bioavailability and the lack of efficient selectivity. This review focuses on autophagy-related immunogenic regulation and its application in cancer therapy.

    Title translation Autophagy and iron homeostasis.
    Abstract Iron is an essential nutrient to life. However, the ability of iron to cycle between the oxidized and reduced forms contributes to the formation of reactive oxygen species. The generation of free radicals leads to oxidative stress and the initiation of signaling pathways involved in cell survival or cell death. The iron homeostasis is very carefully regulated and dysregulation of iron metabolism contributes to various human pathologies. The work carried out in recent years has revealed new cellular processes and mechanisms like ferritinophagy, that deepen our understanding of iron homeostasis. Ferritinophagy is a form of selective macroautophagy whereby ferritin, an iron storage protein, is degraded in the lysosome. Here, we describe iron homeostasis and review recent discoveries regarding the mechanism of ferritinophagy and its relationship to a new form of cell-death iron-dependent, the ferroptosis.

    Abstract Cancer is now considered as a heterogeneous ecosystem in which tumor cells collaborate with each other and with host cells in their microenvironment. As circumstances change, the ecosystem evolves to ensure the survival and growth of the cancer cells. In this ecosystem, metabolism is not only a key player but also drives stemness. In this review, we first summarize our current understanding of how autophagy influences cancer stem cell phenotype. We emphasize metabolic pathways in cancer stem cells and discuss how autophagy-mediated regulation metabolism is involved in their maintenance and proliferation. We then provide an update on the role of metabolic reprogramming and plasticity in cancer stem cells. Finally, we discuss how metabolic pathways in cancer stem cells could be therapeutically targeted.

    Abstract Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are a distinct subpopulation of tumor cells with stem cell-like features. Able to initiate and sustain tumor growth and mostly resistant to anti-cancer therapies, they are thought responsible for tumor recurrence and metastasis. Recent accumulated evidence supports that iron metabolism with the recent discovery of ferroptosis constitutes a promising new lead in the field of anti-CSC therapeutic strategies. Indeed, iron uptake, efflux, storage and regulation pathways are all over-engaged in the tumor microenvironment suggesting that the reprogramming of iron metabolism is a crucial occurrence in tumor cell survival. In particular, recent studies have highlighted the importance of iron metabolism in the maintenance of CSCs. Furthermore, the high concentration of iron found in CSCs, as compared to non-CSCs, underlines their iron addiction. In line with this, if iron is an essential macronutrient that is nevertheless highly reactive, it represents their Achilles' heel by inducing ferroptosis cell death and therefore providing opportunities to target CSCs. In this review, we first summarize our current understanding of iron metabolism and its regulation in CSCs. Then, we provide an overview of the current knowledge of ferroptosis and discuss the role of autophagy in the (regulation of) ferroptotic pathways. Finally, we discuss the potential therapeutic strategies that could be used for inducing ferroptosis in CSCs to treat cancer.

    Abstract Recent advances highlight that non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) are emerging as fundamental regulators in various physiological as well as pathological processes by regulating macro-autophagy. Studies have disclosed that macro-autophagy, which is a highly conserved process involving cellular nutrients, components, and recycling of organelles, can be either selective or non-selective and ncRNAs show their regulation on selective autophagy as well as non-selective autophagy. The abnormal expression of ncRNAs will result in the impairment of autophagy and contribute to carcinogenesis and cancer progression by regulating both selective autophagy as well as non-selective autophagy. This review focuses on the regulatory roles of ncRNAs in autophagy and their involvement in cancer which may provide valuable therapeutic targets for cancer management.

    Abstract Background: The association between different phenotypes and genotypes of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and efficacy of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) remains uncertain. This study was conducted to evaluate the relationship of FTH1 gene-associated CTCs (F-CTC) with/without epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) markers, or their dynamic changes with the efficacy of NAC in patients with non-metastatic breast cancer.
    Patients and methods: This study enrolled 120 patients with non-metastatic breast cancer who planned to undergo NAC. The FTH1 gene and EMT markers in CTCs were detected before NAC (T0), after 2 cycles of chemotherapy (T1), and before surgery (T2). The associations of these different types of CTCs with rates of pathological complete response (pCR) and breast-conserving surgery (BCS) were evaluated using the binary logistic regression analysis.
    Results: F-CTC in peripheral blood ≥1 at T0 was an independent factor for pCR rate in patients with HER2-positive (odds ratio [OR]=0.08, 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.01-0.98, P = .048). The reduction in the number of F-CTC at T2 was an independent factor for BCS rate (OR = 4.54, 95% CI, 1.14-18.08, P = .03).
    Conclusions: The number of F-CTC prior to NAC was related to poor response to NAC. Monitoring of F-CTC may help clinicians formulate personalized NAC regimens and implement BCS for patients with non-metastatic breast cancer.

    Abstract Iron is an essential nutrient that facilitates cell proliferation and growth. Iron can be detrimental, however. The ability of iron to cycle between oxidized and reduced forms contributes to the formation of free radicals. An excess of free radicals leads to lipid peroxidation, more reactive oxygen species and oxidative stress, damage to DNA and other biomolecules, and, if potentially, tumorigenesis. Iron also has a role in the maintenance of the tumor microenvironment and in metastasis. Pathways of iron acquisition, efflux, storage, and regulation are all perturbed in cancer, suggesting that reprogramming of iron metabolism is a central aspect of tumor cell survival. Recent studies have shed light on the role of iron metabolism in cancer stem cells (CSC) and suggest that specific targeting of iron metabolism in CSCs may improve the efficacy of cancer therapy. In this review, we first summarize briefly our current understanding of the intracellular processes involving iron, the effect of dietary iron, and its relation to cancer. We emphasize the importance of modifier "iron genes" in cancer and the possibility that these genes may encode biomarkers that may be used clinically. We then provide an update on the role of iron in metabolic reprogramming, the epithelial-mesenchymal transition, and the regulation of epigenetic marks essential for CSC maintenance and plasticity. Finally, we discuss the potential of targeting a recently discovered form of iron-regulated cell death, ferroptosis, in CSCs for treatment of cancer.
