Ferroptosis is a recently discovered form of cell death that is distinct from apoptosis,characterized pri-marily by the accumulation of intracellular iron and increased levels of lipid peroxidation.Resistance of tumor cells to ferrop-tosis can promote tumorigenesis and tumor progression.Various compounds can influence tumor development by triggering ferroptosis.Ferroptosis involves complex regulatory mechanisms,with mitochondria serving as both an iron storage and meta-bolic center,playing a crucial regulatory role in ferroptosis.This review discusses ferroptosis and its three stages and the role of ferroptosis in tumorigenesis,progression,and treatment,as well as the regulatory mechanisms of mitochondria in ferroptosis.

Objective To prepare curcumin-loaded(CUR)mesoporous silica nanoparticles(MSN)modified by polydopamine(PDA),and study their pharmaceutical properties,drug release in vitro and antitumor activity in vitro.Methods Mesoporous silica nanoparticles were synthesized by template method and modified with PDA.The pharmaceutical properties of the nanoparticles were investigated.The responsive release of drug-loaded preparations at different pH was studied.The biocompatibility of the carrier and the inhibition rate of cell growth in vitro of the drug-loaded preparations were evaluated.The uptake of the drug-loaded preparations by tumor cells was examined.Results The particle size of MSN was uniform.After the PDA modification,the drug release rate of CUR@MSN-PDA was significantly dependent on pH.The results of biocompatibility experiments showed that,the cell survival rate was above 85％after co-cultured with MDA-MB-231 cells for 24 h.The results of in vitro tumor cell growth inhibition test showed that,the growth inhibition rate of CUR@MSN-PDA on tumor cells was significantly higher than that of CUR@MSN.The results of cell uptake showed that the fluorescent strength of CUR@MSN-PDA in the cell was significantly stronger than that of the CUR@MSN.Conclusion The nano-carrier constructed has significant pH response and enhanced anti-tumor activity,which can provide a theoretical basis for the drug delivery of CUR.

Background and objective Lung cancer is a leading cause of cancer-related deaths.Non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC)is the most common pathological subtype,with adenocarcinoma being the predominant type.FAT atypical cadherin 1(FAT1)is a receptor-like protein with a high frequency of mutations in lung adenocarcinoma.The protein encoded by FAT1 plays a crucial role in processes such as cell adhesion,proliferation,and differentiation.This study aims to investigate the expression of FAT1 in lung adenocarcinoma and its relationship with immune infiltration.Methods Gene expression levels and relevant clinical information of 513 lung adenocarcinoma samples and 397 adjacent lung samples were obtained through The Cancer Genome Atlas(TCGA)and Genotype-Tissue Expression(GTEx)data.The mRNA expression levels of the FAT1 gene in lung adenocarcinoma tissues were analyzed,along with its association with the prognosis of lung adenocarcinoma patients.Pathway enrichment analysis was conducted to explore the signaling pathways regulated by the FAT1 gene.Immu-noblotting was used to detect the differential expression of FAT1 in lung epithelial cells and various lung cancer cell lines,while immunohistochemistry was employed to assess FAT1 expression in lung cancer and adjacent tissues.Results FAT1 gene muta-tions were identified in 14%of lung adenocarcinoma patients.TCGA database data revealed significantly higher FAT1 mRNA expression in lung adenocarcinoma tissues compared to adjacent lung tissues.Kaplan-Meier analysis indicated lower survival rates in lung adenocarcinoma patients with higher FAT gene expression.Pathway enrichment analysis suggested the involve-ment of FAT1 in tumor development pathways,and its expression was closely associated with immune cell infiltration.Immu-nohistochemical validation demonstrated significantly higher expression of FAT1 in cancer tissues compared to adjacent lung tissues.Conclusion FAT1 mRNA is highly expressed in lung adenocarcinoma tissues,and elevated FAT1 mRNA expression is associated with poor prognosis in lung adenocarcinoma patients.FAT1 may serve as a potential biomarker for lung cancer.

【Objective】 To investigate the preventive effects of early apoptotic splenic mononuclear cells induced by extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP) on acute graft versus host disease (aGVHD) in mice and explore the underlying mechanisms. 【Methods】 1) Splenic mononuclear cells were extracted from C57BL/6 mice and treated with different concentrations of 8-MOP (50 ng/mL, 100 ng/mL, 200 ng/mL, 300 ng/mL, 600 ng/mL). After treatment, irradiate the cells with 2 J/cm² of ultraviolet light. Then, use the Annexin V-FITC/PI apoptosis detection kit to assess the early apoptosis rate of the cells and determine the optimal concentration of 8-MOP for the experiment.2) There were 35 SPF-grade female BALB/C mice (H-2Kd) aged 6-8 weeks. After whole-body irradiation with 8Gy X-rays, the mice were divided into five groups: sham irradiation group received intravenous infusion of 0.2 mL of normal saline, the syngeneic bone marrow transplantation group received intravenous infusion of 0.2 mL of BALB/C mouse bone marrow nucleated cell suspension (including a cell count of 1×10⁷), the allogeneic bone marrow transplantation group received intravenous infusion of 0.2 mL of C57BL/6 mouse bone marrow nucleated cell suspension (including a cell count of 1×10⁷), the aGVHD group received intravenous injection of a mixture of C57BL/6 mouse bone marrow nucleated cells (including a cell count of 1×10⁷) and splenic mononuclear cells (including a cell count of 1×10⁷) in 0.2 mL, the ECP prevention group received pre-transplant intravenous infusion of 0.2 mL of ECP-treated splenic mononuclear cells of C57BL/6 mice (including a cell count of 1×10⁷ ) 48 hours before transplantation, and on the day of transplantation, intravenous injection of a mixture of C57BL/6 mouse bone marrow nucleated cells (including a cell count of 1×10⁷) and splenic mononuclear cells (including a cell count of 1×10⁷ ) in 0.2 mL.The preventive effects of ECP on aGVHD were observed, and the concentrations of IFN-γ, IL-2, TNF, IL-4 and IL-6 in mouse serum were measured using CBA. Th1 cell counts were determined by flow cytometry. 【Results】 Different concentrations of 8-MOP (50 ng/mL,100 ng/mL, 200 ng/mL, 300 ng/mL, 600 ng/mL) were used to treat mouse splenic mononuclear cells. The early apoptosis rates (%), observed after treatment were as follows: (14.18±0.865) vs (16.76±0.407) vs (18.83±0.404) vs (19.27±0.404) vs (14.5±0.529). The appropriate concentration of 8-MOP was determined to be 200 ng/mL.In vivo experiment, the results showed that the aGVHD group had decreased survival rate, reduced body weight, and increased clinical scores compared to the syngeneic and allogeneic bone marrow transplantation groups (P<0.01), and the chimerism of bone marrow cells in mice after transplantation was over 90%. ECP significantly improved the survival rate of mice after transplantation, reduced clinical scores (P<0.05), and decreased the concentrations of Th1 cell cytokines in serum (P<0.05) and the counts of Th1 cells in the spleen (P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 ECP-induced early apoptotic single nuclear cells from the spleen can prevent the occurrence of aGVHD by reducing the Th1 response in mouse.
