Abstract:
Background: The oncogenic Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (KRAS) mutation was reported to be the signature genetic event in most cases of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Hepassocin (HPS/FGL1) is involved in regulating lipid metabolism and the progression of several cancer types; however, the underlying mechanism of HPS/FGL1 in the KRAS mutant PDAC cells undergoing eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) treatment remains unclear. Methods: We measured HPS/FGL1 protein expressions in a human pancreatic ductal epithelial (HPNE) normal pancreas cell line, a KRAS-wild-type PDAC cell line (B

Abstract:
Metabolic reprogramming is now considered a hallmark of cancer cells. KRas-driven cancer cells use glutaminolysis to generate the tricarboxylic acid cycle intermediate α-ketoglutarate via a transamination reaction between glutamate and oxaloacetate. We reported previously that exogenously supplied unsaturated fatty acids could be used to synthesize phosphatidic acid–a lipid second messenger that activates both mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) complex 1 (mTORC1) and mTOR complex 2 (mTORC2). A key target of mTORC2 is Akt–a kinase that promotes survival and regulates cell metabolism. We repor

Abstract One-carbon metabolism, which integrates the folate and methionine cycles, is crucial for cancer growth. Methionine synthase (MTR), a key enzyme in this pathway, converts 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5-CH3-THF) to active tetrahydrofolate (THF), a cofactor required for nucleotide synthesis. Concurrently, MTR catalyzes the conversion of homocysteine to methionine, effectively linking the folate and methionine cycles. Given its central role, MTR has gained attention as a potential therapeutic target in cancer research, though its function in KRAS-driven lung cancer remains poorly understood.

Abstract:
Cancer cells can escape death and surveillance by the host immune system in various ways. Programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) is a transmembrane protein that is expressed by most cell types, including cancer cells, and can provide an inhibitory signal to its receptor PD-1, which is expressed on the surface of activated T cells, impairing the immune response. PD-L1/PD-1-mediated immune evasion is observed in several KRAS-mutated cancers. In the current study, we used the CRISPR/Cas9 system to knock down PD-L1 and KRAS in adenocarcinoma lung cells (A549 and H1975). Knockdown of PD-L1 was vali

Abstract:
RAS proteins are key regulators of cell signalling and control different cell functions including cell proliferation, differentiation, and cell death. Point mutations in the genes of this family are common, particularly in KRAS. These mutations were thought to cause the constitutive activation of KRAS, but recent findings showed that some mutants can cycle between active and inactive states. This observation, together with the development of covalent KRASG12C inhibitors, has led to the arrival of KRAS inhibitors in the clinic. However, most patients develop resistance to these targeted therapi

Therefore, we purified a novel ubiquinone derivative, AC009, and investigated its antitumor effects. Cell viability assays revealed that AC009 reduced the viability of several human CRC cell lines. AC009 treatment resulted in cell-cycle arrest/apoptosis, and these effects may occur via caspase and Bcl-2 signaling pathways. We demonstrated that AC009 could significantly inhibit in vivo tumor growth in xenog

Abstract Background: Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the leading cause of cancer-related death in the United States. Though NSCLC is genetically heterogeneous, as many as 30% of NSCLC patients harbor gain-of-function mutations in the KRAS oncogene. Recent studies have demonstrated that KRAS mutations lead to extensive remodeling of the tumor immune microenvironment. However, though the effect of co-mutations in genes such as TP53 and STK11 are known to have prognostic relevance in KRAS-mutated patients, their mechanistic effect on tumor immunogenicity is largely unknown.

In this review, we will summarize the evidence for a stemness driving activity of oncogenic Ras.
