Nucleoporin TPR integrates MAPK signaling with mitogen-induced transcriptional programs. (PubMed, Cell Death Dis)
Using a novel phospho-specific monoclonal antibody, we show that TPR is phosphorylated at Ser2155 following EGFR activation via the canonical RAS-RAF-MEK-ERK MAPK cascade, placing TPR downstream of MAPK pathway activation...Finally, immunohistochemical analysis reveals elevated TPR phosphorylation in serous ovarian carcinoma and heterogeneous phosphorylation patterns in triple-negative breast cancer, two tumor types frequently characterized by MAPK pathway hyperactivation. Together, these findings uncover a previously unappreciated role for TPR as a MAPK-responsive nuclear factor and support a model in which NPC-associated components fine-tune mitogen-induced transcriptional responses.

A probiotic bacterium modulates antitumour γδ T-cell responses in lung cancer. (PubMed, Front Immunol)
The probiotic Clostridium butyricum strain MIYAIRI 588 (CBM588) improves response rates and overall survival in patients receiving immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy for non-small cell lung cancer and metastatic renal cell carcinoma but the mechanism underlying this benefit remains unclear...Across the patient cohort, higher post-treatment frequencies of CD69+ Vδ2 T-cells were associated with improved survival and more favourable clinical outcomes. These findings provide a potential mechanism by which manipulation of the intestinal microflora might contribute to cancer prognosis through effects on immune effector cells with intrinsic anticancer properties.
