Notably, combined treatment with the PRMT5 inhibitor GSK3326595 and DMF synergistically enhances anti-tumor activity in a patient-derived xenograft (PDX) model. These findings reveal a previously unrecognized PRMT5-ATF5-SLC7A11 axis that drives ferroptosis resistance in B-cell lymphomas and provide a strong rationale for targeting PRMT5 to potentiate ferroptosis-based therapies in relapsed or refractory disease.

In vivo, RRx-001 significantly inhibits tumor growth, enhances T-cell infiltration, promotes M1 macrophage polarization, downregulates PD-L1 expression, and strengthens anti-tumor immunity through T cell-related pathways. With both metabolic and immunomodulatory effects, RRx-001 provides a basis for novel HCC therapies, and future research could explore its synergistic effects with immune checkpoint inhibitors.

We found a p53-mediated downregulation of the Solute Carrier Family 7 Member 11 (SLC7A11)/Cystine/Glutamate Transporter (xCT) expression and glutathione levels. Our results suggest that combined administration of DMF and cisplatin, by targeting the dependency of cervical cancer cells on glutathione and (re)activating p53, represents a promising anticancer therapeutic strategy.

Molecular docking confirmed that LT4 stably occupied the ATP‑binding pocket of PI3Kγ with a binding energy comparable to wortmannin and a conformation similar to antroquinonol. In conclusion, to the best of our knowledge, the present study is the first to comprehensively demonstrate the multi‑target anti‑CRC effects of LT4, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic agent, especially in KRAS‑mutant CRC.

Notably, ERAD inhibition by RTA408 is cytotoxic to primary malignant plasma cells, including those resistant to proteasome inhibitors, and demonstrates in vivo anti-myeloma activity. Our findings establish a novel ERAD inhibitor, which is a valuable tool to dissect ERAD biology, and provide pre-clinical evidence for RTA408 as a therapeutic agent in MM.

In conclusion, DMF exerts multifaceted and cell type-specific actions on mitochondria. Understanding these mechanisms may guide optimized therapeutic strategies and the identification of biomarkers for precision use in neurological disorders.

Chemoprevention and dietary interception studies (e.g., oltipraz, chlorophyllin, and broccoli sprout beverages) showed that enhancing detoxication pathways can lower biomarker burdens in exposed populations...Nevertheless, regional heterogeneity, multi-mycotoxin co-exposure, and climate variability are expected to increase exposure volatility and complicate surveillance. Here, we translate and synthesize the Chinese evidence base, highlight biomarker-enabled monitoring and policy evaluation, and propose an integrated "5+1" prevention framework spanning source control, process detoxification, tiered governance, short-course interception, precision follow-up of high-risk individuals, and climate-sensitive early warning along the climate-agriculture-storage-processing-population (CAT-CSPP) chain.
