Targeting autophagy to enhance chemotherapy and immunotherapy in oral cancer by Xiaoli Zeng, Xiaoli Zeng, Xiaoli Zeng, Yue Chen, Yue Chen, Jing Wang, Jing Wang, Miao He, Miao He, Junyao Qiu, Yun Huang

“…Recent studies have identified that autophagy activation in oral epithelial cells suppresses cancer cell survival by inhibiting key pathways such as the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), while activating the adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) pathway. Inducing autophagy promotes degradation of eukaryotic initiation factor 4E, thus reducing metastasis and enhancing the efficacy of chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and immunotherapy. …”

Interplay of Transcriptomic Regulation, Microbiota, and Signaling Pathways in Lung and Gut Inflammation-Induced Tumorigenesis by Beatriz Andrea Otálora-Otálora, César Payán-Gómez, Juan Javier López-Rivera, Natalia Belén Pedroza-Aconcha, Sally Lorena Arboleda-Mojica, Claudia Aristizábal-Guzmán, Mario Arturo Isaza-Ruget, Carlos Arturo Álvarez-Moreno

“…ZNF91, VDR, DLEU1, SATB2-AS1, and TP53TG1 in ulcerative colitis are related to the regulation of PPAR, AMPK, and metabolic signaling pathways. The activation of the transcriptomic network and signaling pathways might be related to the interaction of the characteristic microbiota of the inflammatory disease, with the lung and gut cell receptors present in membrane rafts and complexes. …”

Review on the Injury and Repair Mechanism of Skeletal Muscle Contusions by LIN Jianping, WANG Hao, GUO Mingling, WANG Shizhong, CHEN Shaoqing

“…As for the mechanism of autophagy in the repair of SMC, in addition to the induction of excessive ERS, it has been reported that SMC induces insufficient oxygen supply to local tissues, promotes the production of a large number of ROS or activation of AMPK signal pathway, and then induces mitochondrial autophagy, which maintains the stability of mitochondria and saves energy consumption, so as to achieve the purpose of promoting repair after SMC. …”
