High-dose ascorbic acid synergizes with anti-PD1 therapy in non-small cell lung cancer in vitro and in vivo models by Hak Su Kim, Seung-hyun Kwon, Ok Kyung Choi, Taekyu Lim, Taekyu Lim

“…This study aimed to elucidate the effects of high-dose AA on anti-PD1 immunotherapy in NSCLC.MethodsThe combined effects of high-dose AA and anti-PD1 were investigated using a coculture model of H460 cells and CD8+ T cells and an LLC1 lung cancer syngeneic mouse model. To investigate the molecular mechanism, tumor tissues from mice were analyzed by comprehensive proteomic profiling using nano-LC-ESI-MS/MS.ResultsPretreatment with a high dose of AA led to enhanced the sensitivity to the cytotoxicity of CD8+ T cells derived from healthy donor for H460 cells. …”

GTPase GPN3 facilitates cell proliferation and migration in non-small cell lung cancer by impeding clathrin-mediated endocytosis of EGFR by Linlin Xu, Jiankun Guo, Xinsheng Xie, Hailong Wang, Alan Jiang, Changhua Huang, Hua Yang, Shiwen Luo, Limin Chen

“…GPN3, an evolutionarily conserved member of the GPN-loop GTPase subfamily classified in 2007 according to its structure, has limited knowledge regarding its cellular functions and molecular mechanisms. In this study, we demonstrate that GPN3 interacts with clathrin light chain A (CLTA), a vesicle coat protein, as well as clathrin-mediated endocytosis associated modulators AP2B1 and AP2S1. …”
