    Abstract According to the latest global cancer statistics, colorectal cancer (CRC) has emerged as the third most prevalent malignant tumor across the globe. In recent decades, the medical field has implemented several levels of CRC screening tests, encompassing fecal tests, endoscopic examinations, radiological examinations and blood tests. Previous studies have shown that leukocyte immunoglobulin-like receptor B2 (LILRB2) is involved in inhibiting immune cell function, immune evasion, and promoting tumor progression in acute myeloid leukemia and non-small cell lung cancer. However, its interaction with CRC has not been reported yet. Recently, a study published in the

    Abstract Various forms of malignancies have been linked to Helicobacter pylori. Despite advancements in chemotherapeutic and surgical approaches, the management of cancer, particularly at advanced stages, increasingly relies on the integration of immunotherapy. As a novel, safe therapeutic modality, immunotherapy harnesses the immune system of the patient to treat cancer, thereby broadening treatment options. However, there is evidence that H. pylori infection may influence the effectiveness of immunotherapy in various types of cancer. This association is related to H. pylori virulence factors and the tumor microenvironment. This review discusses the influence of H. pylori infection on immunotherapy in non-gastrointestinal and gastrointestinal tumors, the mechanisms underlying this relationship, and directions for the development of improved immunotherapy strategies.

    Abstract Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a heterogeneous disease caused by several gene mutations and cytogenetic abnormalities affecting differentiation and proliferation of myeloid lineage cells. FLT3 is a receptor tyrosine kinase commonly overexpressed or mutated, and its mutations are associated with poor prognosis in AML. Although aggressive chemotherapy often followed by hematopoietic stem cell transplant is the current standard of care, the recent approval of FLT3-targeted drugs is revolutionizing AML treatment that had remained unchanged since the 1970s. However, despite the dramatic clinical response to targeted agents, such as FLT3 inhibitors, remission is almost invariably short-lived and ensued by relapse and drug resistance. Hence, there is an urgent need to understand the molecular mechanisms driving drug resistance in order to prevent relapse. In this review, we discuss FLT3 as a target and highlight current understanding of FLT3 inhibitor resistance.

    Abstract Background: Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a heterogeneous disease in both children and adults. Although it is well-known that adult and pediatric AMLs are genetically distinct diseases, the driver genes for high-risk pediatric and adult AMLs are still not fully understood. Particularly, the interactions between RNA binding proteins (RBPs) and noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) for high-risk AMLs have not been explored.
    Aim: To identify RBPs and noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) that are the master regulators of high-risk AML.
    Methods: In this manuscript, we identify over 400 upregulated genes in high-risk adult and pediatric AMLs respectively with the expression profiles of TCGA and TARGET cohorts. There are less than 5% genes commonly upregulated in both cohorts, highlighting the genetic differences in adult and childhood AMLs. A novel distance correlation test is proposed for gene regulatory network construction. We build RBP-based regulatory networks with upregulated genes in high-risk adult and pediatric AMLs, separately.
    Results: We discover that three RBPs, three snoRNAs, and two circRNAs function together and regulate over 100 upregulated RNA targets in adult AML, whereas two RBPs are associated with 17 long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), and all together regulate over 90 upregulated RNA targets in pediatric AML. Of which, two RBPs, MLLT3 and RBPMS, and their circRNA targets, PTK2 and NRIP1, are associated with the overall survival (OS) in adult AML (p ≤ 0.01), whereas two different RBPs, MSI2 and DNMT3B, and 13 (out of 17) associated lncRNAs are prognostically significant in pediatric AML.
    Conclusions: Both RBPs and ncRNAs are known to be the major regulators of transcriptional processes. The RBP-ncRNA pairs identified from the regulatory networks will allow better understanding of molecular mechanisms underlying high-risk adult and pediatric AMLs, and assist in the development of novel RBPs and ncRNAs based therapeutic strategies.

    Abstract During autophagosome formation, ATG3, an E2-like enzyme, catalyzes the transfer of LC3-family proteins (including Atg8 in yeast and LC3- and GABARAP-subfamily members in more complex eukaryotes) from the covalent conjugated ATG3-LC3 intermediate to PE lipids in targeted membranes. A recent study has shown that the catalytically important regions of human ATG3 (hereafter referred to as ATG3), including residues 262 to 277 and 291 to 300, in cooperation with its N-terminal curvature-sensing amphipathic helix (NAH), directly interact with the membrane. These membrane interactions are functionally necessary for in vitro conjugation and in vivo cellular assays. They provide a molecular mechanism for how the membrane curvature-sensitive interaction of the NAH of ATG3 is closely coupled to its conjugase activity. Together, the data are consistent with a model in which the highly curved phagophore rims facilitate the recruitment of the ATG3-LC3 complex and promote the conjugation of LC3 to PE lipids. Mechanistically, the highly curved membranes of the phagophore rims act in much the same manner as classical E3 enzymes in the sumo/ubiquitin system, bringing substrates into proximity and rearranging the catalytic center of ATG3. Future studies will investigate how this multifaceted membrane interaction of ATG3 works with the putative E3 complex, ATG12-ATG5-ATG16L1, to promote LC3-PE conjugation.

    Abstract Macroautophagy (herein referred to as autophagy) is a highly conserved stress response that engulfs damaged proteins, lipids, and/or organelles within double-membrane vesicles called autophagosomes for lysosomal degradation. Dysregulated autophagy is a hallmark of cancer; and thus, there is great interest in modulating autophagy for cancer therapy. Sphingolipids regulate each step of autophagosome biogenesis with roles for sphingolipid metabolites and enzymes spanning from the initial step of de novo ceramide synthesis to the sphingosine-1-phosphate lyase 1-mediated exit from the sphingolipid pathway. Notably, sphingolipid metabolism occurs at several of the organelles that contribute to autophagosome biogenesis to suggest that local changes in sphingolipids may regulate autophagy. As sphingolipid metabolism is frequently dysregulated in cancer, a molecular understanding of sphingolipids in stress-induced autophagy may provide insight into the mechanisms driving tumor development and progression. On the contrary, modulation of sphingolipid metabolites and/or enzymes can induce autophagy-dependent cell death for cancer therapy. This chapter will overview the major steps in mammalian autophagy, discuss the regulation of each step by sphingolipid metabolites, and describe the functions of sphingolipid-mediated autophagy in cancer. While our understanding of the signaling and biophysical properties of sphingolipids in autophagy remains in its infancy, the unique cross talk between the two pathways is an exciting area for further development, particularly in the context of cancer therapy.
