Elucidating the role of pyrimidine metabolism in prostate cancer and its therapeutic implications by Liang Huang, Yu Xie, Shusuan Jiang, Kan Liu, Zhihao Ming, Hong Shan

“…Tumors in the P2 subgroup, characterized by higher pyrimidine metabolism, exhibited greater infiltration of activated CD4 + T cells and M2 macrophages, indicating a potential link between metabolic reprogramming and the immune response in prostate cancer. Drug sensitivity analysis further demonstrated that tumors with elevated pyrimidine metabolism displayed increased responsiveness to several chemotherapeutic agents, including BI-2536, JW-7-24-1, and PAC-1, suggesting that targeting pyrimidine metabolism may enhance treatment efficacy. …”

Molecular mechanisms and therapeutic strategies of Naegleria fowleri Carter (1970): a review of the fatal brain-eating amoeba by N. Datta

“…These mechanisms include the expression of various surface molecules that mediate adhesion, motility, and phagocytosis of host cells, as well as the secretion of proteases and other factors that degrade host extracellular matrix and modulate host immune response. However, there are still many unanswered questions regarding the complex interactions between the amoeba and its host, which limit the development of effective diagnostic and therapeutic strategies. …”
