In vivo imaging of inflammatory response in cancer research

Yoshinobu Konishi, Kenta Terai

Summary: Inflammation plays a role in cancer development and progression, and the complex intercellular cross-talks in the tumor microenvironment have not been successfully replicated in vitro. Two-photon excitation microscopes (2P-IVM) with fluorescent indicators are currently used to observe intercellular cross-talks, revealing the cellular and molecular mechanisms in a spatiotemporal context. This review summarizes the current state of 2P-IVM and discusses the potential application of red-shifted indicators and optogenetic tools. In the era of single-cell transcriptomics and data-driven research, 2P-IVM remains crucial in providing the missing spatiotemporal context in cancer research.

Reciprocal interplay between OTULIN-LUBAC determines genotoxic and inflammatory NF-κB signal responses

Mingqi Li, Ling Li, Sarah Asemota, David Kakhniashvili, Ramesh Narayanan, Xusheng Wang, Francesca-Fang Liao

Summary: This study identifies the molecular mechanisms of how the deubiquitinase OTULIN counteracts LUBAC-mediated NF-kappa B activation. The physical interaction between OTULIN and LUBAC is crucial for genotoxic NF-kappa B signaling, and disruption of this interaction leads to NF-kappa B overactivation. These findings have implications for developing therapeutic strategies against cancer chemoresistance and necroptotic processes.

A drug repurposing strategy for overcoming human multiple myeloma resistance to standard-of-care treatment

Katarina Chroma, Zdenek Skrott, Jan Gursky, Jaroslav Bacovsky, Pavel Moudry, Tereza Buchtova, Martin Mistrik, Jiri Bartek

Summary: Despite various therapeutic modalities, multiple myeloma remains incurable with low treatment success rate. The common treatment targeting proteasome often leads to drug resistance. In this study, the authors propose a novel proteasome-like inhibitor agent called CuET formed in vivo and in vitro from a known drug, disulfiram. They demonstrate the effectiveness of CuET in killing different resistant forms of multiple myeloma cells, including those resistant to common anti-myeloma drugs. Furthermore, CuET can overcome another form of treatment resistance based on reduced proteasome load. The findings suggest that repurposing disulfiram in combination with copper supplementation could offer a promising treatment option for relapsed and therapy-resistant multiple myeloma patients.
