RESUMO

DNA methylation is the most important epigenetic element that activates the inhibition of gene transcription and is included in the pathogenesis of all types of malignancies. Remarkably, the effectors of DNA methylation are DNMTs (DNA methyltransferases) that catalyze de novo or keep methylation of hemimethylated DNA after the DNA replication process. DNA methylation structures in cancer are altered, with three procedures by which DNA methylation helps cancer development which are including direct mutagenesis, hypomethylation of the cancer genome, and also focal hypermethylation of the promoters of TSGs (tumor suppressor genes). Conspicuously, DNA methylation, nucleosome remodeling, RNA-mediated targeting, and histone modification balance modulate many biological activities that are essential and indispensable to the genesis of cancer and also can impact many epigenetic changes including DNA methylation and histone modifications as well as adjusting of non-coding miRNAs expression in prevention and treatment of many cancers. Epigenetics points to heritable modifications in gene expression that do not comprise alterations in the DNA sequence. The nucleosome is the basic unit of chromatin, consisting of 147 base pairs (bp) of DNA bound around a histone octamer comprised of one H3/H4 tetramer and two H2A/H2B dimers. DNA methylation is preferentially distributed over nucleosome regions and is less increased over flanking nucleosome-depleted DNA, implying a connection between nucleosome positioning and DNA methylation. In carcinogenesis, aberrations in the epigenome may also include in the progression of drug resistance. In this report, we report the rudimentary notes behind these epigenetic signaling pathways and emphasize the proofs recommending that their misregulation can conclude in cancer. These findings in conjunction with the promising preclinical and clinical consequences observed with epigenetic drugs against chromatin regulators, confirm the important role of epigenetics in cancer therapy.

RESUMO

Immunotherapy of cancer by chimeric antigen receptors (CAR) modified T-cell has a remarkable clinical potential for malignancies. Meaningly, it is a suitable cancer therapy to treat different solid tumors. CAR is a special recombinant protein combination with an antibody targeting structure alongside with signaling domain capacity on order to activate T cells. It is confirmed that the CAR-modified T cells have this ability to terminate and remove B cell malignancies. So, methodologies for investigations the pro risks and also strategies for neutralizing possible off-tumor consequences of are great importance successful protocols and strategies of CAR T-cell therapy can improve the efficacy and safety of this type of cancers. In this review article, we try to classify and illustrate main optimized plans in cancer CAR T-cell therapy.

RESUMO

Importance of dysregulation and expression of microRNAs (miRNAs) has been confiemed in many disorders comprising cancer. In this way, different approaches to induce reprogramming from one cell type to another in oerder to control the cell normal mechanisem, comprising microRNAs, combinatorial small molecules, exosome-mediated reprogramming, embryonic microenvironment and also lineage-specific transcription agents, are involved in cell situation. Meaningly, besides the above factors, microRNAs are so special and have an impressive role in cell reprogramming. One of the main applications of cancer cell reprogramming is it's ability in therapeutic approach. Many insights in reprogramming mechanism have been recommended, and determining improvment has been aknolwged to develop reprogramming efficiency and possibility, permiting it to appear as practical therapy against all cancers. Conspiciously, the recent studies on the fluctuations and performance of microRNAs,small endogenous non-coding RNAs, as notable factors in carcinogenesis and tumorigenesis, therapy resistance and metastasis and as new non-invasive cancer biomarkers has a remarkable attention. This is due to their unique dysregulated signatures throughout tumor progression. Recognising miRNAs signatures capable of anticipating therapy response and metastatic onset in cancers might enhance diagnosis and therapy. According to the growing reports on miRNAs as novel non-invasive biomarkers in various cancers as a main regulators of cancers drug resistance or metastasis, the quest on whether some miRNAs have the ability to regulate both simultaneously is inevitable, yet understudied. The combination of genetic diagnosis using next generation sequencing and targeted therapy may contribute to the effective precision medicine for cancer therapy. Here, we want to review the practical application of microRNAs performance in carcinogenesis and tumorigenesis in cancer therapy.

RESUMO

Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are responsible for carcinogenesis and tumorigenesis and are involved in drug and radiation resistance, metastasis, tumor relapse and initiation. Remarkably, they have other abilities such as inheritance of self-renewal and de-differentiation. Hence, targeting CSCs is considered a potential anti-cancer therapeutic strategy. Recent advances in the identification of biomarkers to recognize CSCs and the development of new techniques to evaluate tumorigenic and carcinogenic roles of CSCs are instrumental to this approach. Elucidation of signaling pathways that regulate CSCs colony progression and drug resistance are critical in establishing effective targeted therapies. CSCs play a central key role in immunomodulation, immune evasion and effector immunity, which alters immune system balancing. These include mTOR, SHH, NOTCH and Wnt/ß-catering in cancer progression. In this review article, we discuss the importance of these CSCs pathways in cancer therapy.
