Early assessment of IL8 and PD1+ Treg predicts response and guides treatment monitoring in cemiplimab-treated cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma by Teresa Troiani, Fabiana Napolitano, Luigi Formisano, Roberto Bianco, Daniela Russo, Daniela Esposito, Giuseppe Ercolano, Angela Ianaro, Alberto Servetto, Daniela Claudia Maresca, Marcella Scala, Annarita Amato, Stefania Belli, Claudia Maria Ascione, Angela Vallefuoco, Giovanna Attanasio, Fabio Somma, Silvia Varricchio, Massimo Mascolo, Claudia Costa, Alessia Villani, Massimiliano Scalvenzi, Gianfranco Orlandino

“…Purpose Anti-programmed cell death 1 (PD1) is the first-choice treatment in patients with advanced cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC), when curative options are unavailable. However, reliable biomarkers for patient selection are still lacking.Experimental design In this translational study, clinical annotations, tissue and liquid biopsies were acquired to investigate the association between sustained objective responses and transcriptional profiles, immune cell dynamics in tumor tissue and peripheral blood samples, as well as circulating cytokine levels.Results First, we investigated the baseline characteristics of the immune landscape of cSCC biopsies. …”

Hypothermia regulates mitophagy and apoptosis via PINK1/Parkin-VDAC 3 signaling pathway during oxygen-glucose deprivation/recovery injury by Luying Zhang, Song Yang, Hao Cui, Chenchen Hang, Xingsheng Wang, Le An, Zhenyu Shan, Zhen Liang, Rui Shao, Ziren Tang

“…In conclusion, the potential mechanisms of hypothermia during oxygen-glucose deprivation/recovery could be summarized as follows:1) At 2 h after temperature intervention, hypothermia provided neuroprotective effects via promoting mitophagy and reducing apoptosis through activating the PINK1/Parkin-VDAC3 signaling pathway. 2) The curative effect of hypothermia was timeliness. At 4 h after temperature intervention, hypothermia aggravated apoptosis through inhibiting Parkin recruitment to mitochondria and aggravating the release of Cyt C through open mPTP.…”
