Mechanism of miR-199a-5p prevents migration and invasion of cholangiocarcinoma by targeting hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (PubMed, Zhonghua Yi Xue Za Zhi)
After knocking off HIF-1α, both the number of migrating and invading cells decreased (both P<0.05). miR-199a-5p is downregulated in ICC and suppresses tumor migration and invasion by directly targeting HIF-1α and regulating downstream molecules involved in proliferation, invasion and apoptosis.

Management of Nail Toxicities From Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor Inhibitors. (PubMed, J Drugs Dermatol)
The incidence of FGFRi-associated nail toxicities varies by agent and can affect quality of life and treatment adherence. The pathogenesis remains unclear, and no predictive biomarkers exist. Further research into optimized management and preventative strategies is needed. Early recognition and proactive multidisciplinary management are essential to minimizing complications and maintaining oncologic treatment continuity. &nbsp.

In this LT cohort, CCA molecular profiling informed prognosis and treatment response. Heterogeneity may depend on early tumorigenesis disruptions, potentially explaining outcome differences.

Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor (FGFR) Inhibitors for the Treatment of Cholangiocarcinoma: Key Therapeutic Developments and Knowledge Gaps. (PubMed, Drug Des Devel Ther)
Parallel translational work using cfDNA-based liquid biopsy has mapped a spectrum of secondary kinase-domain mutations that underlie acquired resistance, informing the development of next-generation FGFR2-selective inhibitors (eg, lirafugratinib) and combination strategies with EGFR/ERBB blockade. Collectively, these data underscore the need for comprehensive molecular profiling and innovative umbrella trial designs to optimise targeted therapy in this rare, biologically heterogeneous malignancy.

Distinct molecular pathways regulated by activated AKT and YAP signaling during intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma progression: Roles of AKT and YAP during iCCA. (PubMed, J Hepatol)
We characterize distinct molecular signatures of AKT and YAP in iCCA progression and identify YAP as a key regulator of the tumor immune microenvironment (TIME). Our findings support combining YAP inhibition with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) for iCCA treatment.

L-lactate-driven PSMD14 lactylation and stabilization promote lactate production and ferroptosis resistance via ENO1 in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. (PubMed, Cancer Lett)
Furthermore, PSMD14 and ENO1 were highly expressed in tumor tissues and closely associated with a poor ICC prognosis. Overall, our study reveals the importance of the L-lactate/PSMD14/ENO1 axis in regulating ferroptosis resistance in ICC, suggesting a novel therapeutic target and strategy for treating this disease.
