GPC3 and CD133-targeted peptide dual modification enhances the therapeutic effect of doxorubicin carried by OMVs on hepatocellular carcinoma. (PubMed, Int J Pharm X)
In conclusion, the dual-targeted OMV system enhances tumor specificity via cooperative GPC3/CD133 recognition, optimizes pH-responsive release, and reduces nonspecific clearance by modulating macrophages. These features improve antitumor efficacy and mitigate toxicity, positioning OMV-based nanocarriers as promising platforms for precision HCC therapy.

UGT8/GalCer-dependent resistance of breast cancer cells to drug-induced apoptosis is potentially regulated by the LIM/homeobox protein LHX6. (PubMed, Sci Rep)
Targeting LHX6 decreases UGT8 expression and GalCer synthesis, thereby sensitizing MDA-MB-231 cells to doxorubicin. Given UGT8's role in cell survival and drug resistance, inhibition of LHX6 may represent a promising therapeutic strategy for drug-resistant BC.

Uncovering Thyroid Vulnerability to Doxorubicin: Integrative Cellular and in vivo Evidence of Mitochondrial Dysfunction. (PubMed, Drug Des Devel Ther)
These insights underscore the novelty of the thyroid as a vulnerable target during DOX-based chemotherapy and emphasize the need for routine thyroid monitoring in clinical practice. This work further supports developing adjunct interventions to mitigate thyroid damage and improve long-term safety in cancer survivors.

Doxorubicin enhances adipogenesis in an FGF2-dependent manner and induces a tumour-promoting secretory phenotype. (PubMed, J Bone Oncol)
Doxorubicin or carboplatin treatment of adipogenic differentiating MSC led to an increased percentage of mature BMA confirmed by increased gene expression of the adipocyte marker, PPARG. As FGF2 is a secreted protein we tested and confirmed that transfer of conditioned media from doxorubicin-treated BMA enhanced proliferation of tumour cells in vitro, a phenotype that was partially abrogated when FGF2 was depleted from adipogenic differentiating MSC. Our findings suggest that chemotherapy actively promotes adipogenesis, in part by alteration of FGF2 in the context of doxorubicin treatment, which directly enhances adipogenesis and in turn leads to enhanced tumour cell growth as a result.
