GSTP1 overexpression

In our cohort, MGMT expression seems helpful as a biomarker of good prognosis (low-grade and absence of muscle invasion). A heterogeneous methylation pattern in the MGMT gene requires additional investigation to elucidate its potential implications.

DYRK2 plays a pivotal role in overcoming docetaxel resistance in breast cancer cells by suppressing Twist1 expression through ubiquitination, impacting downstream signaling and cellular responses. This study provides valuable insights for developing targeted therapies to improve breast cancer treatment outcomes.

To globally identify metabolic enzyme tyrosine phosphorylation events and simultaneously assign functional significance to these sites, we performed parallel phosphoproteomics and polar metabolomics in nontumorigenic mammary epithelial cells (MCF10A) stimulated with epidermal growth factor (EGF) in the absence or presence of the EGF receptor inhibitor erlotinib. We validated these hits using a doxycycline-inducible CRISPR interference system in MCF10A cells, in which target metabolic enzymes were depleted with simultaneous reexpression of wild-type, phosphomutant, or phosphomimetic isoforms. Together, these data provide a framework for identification, prioritization, and characterization of tyrosine phosphorylation sites on metabolic enzymes with functional significance.

Intriguingly, Auranofin increased the expression of glutathione S-transferase pi-1 (GSTP-1), a target of PPL. Combining Auranofin with PPL synergistically decreased IC50s to a nanomolar range in GSCs, supporting the potential to repurpose Auranofin and PPL in GBM.

To highlight possible correlations of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) with microscopic / macroscopic characteristics of colorectal cancer tissues, along with the expression of Ten-Eleven Translocation 2 (TET2) and glutathione-S-transferase pi (GST-pi) proteins.

These changes increase the resistance of pancreatic cancer cells and xenograft tumors to IR. Our findings indicate that ferroptosis participates in irradiation-induced cell death and that GSTP1 prevents IR-induced death of pancreatic cancer cells by inhibiting ferroptosis.

Gene enrichment and network analysis associated ABCB1 with ABC transporters and LncRNA-mediated therapeutic resistance (WP3672), while CYP1B1 was linked to ovarian steroidogenesis, tryptophan metabolism, steroid hormone biosynthesis, benzo(a)pyrene metabolism, the sulindac metabolic pathway, and the estrogen receptor pathway, which are associated with drug resistance. These findings underscore the susceptibility of cancer patients to drug resistance due to increased ABCB1 and CYP1B1 expression in tumor samples from patients in the poor-responders category that affects associated molecular pathways. The potent molecular interactions of ABCB1 and CYP1B1 with docetaxel further emphasize the potential basis for chemotherapy resistance.

NBDHEX exhibits anti-cancer activity by selectively inhibiting glutathione-S-transferase pi (GSTP1), which is overexpressed in cancer cells and responsible for the inactivation of chemotherapeutic drugs. The sustained release of NBDHEX from the prodrug would be useful for ameliorating the off-target side-effects of NBDHEX.

In conclusion, our study provides a robust and reliable methylation-based diagnostic model for PCa. This model holds promise as an improved approach for screening and diagnosing PCa, potentially enhancing early detection and patient outcomes, as well as for an advanced clinical management for PCa in the framework of predictive, preventive and personalised medicine.

The results demonstrated that the incorporation of TMP into EXOs exhibited an anti‑ovarian cancer effect and markedly enhanced the antitumor efficacy of paclitaxel (PTX)...Overall, EXO‑TMP exhibited direct targeting capabilities towards A2780T cells and effectively reduced their drug resistance. EXOs‑TMP provide a novel and effective drug delivery pathway for reversing drug resistance in ovarian cancer.

This study discusses novel mechanism of action by which PL acts on CSCSs. Taken together our study provides insight into development of PL based nanomedicine which could be exploited in clinics to achieve complete eradication of TNBC by targeting CSCs.

In addition, targeting GSTP1 with the inhibitor NBDHEX effectively rescued the cisplatin resistance induced by VPS13C deficiency. Overall, our findings provide insights into the underlying mechanisms of VPS13C in cisplatin resistance and identify VPS13C as a promising candidate for the treatment of chemoresistance in cervical cancer.
