Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD), the first rate-limiting enzyme of the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP), is aberrantly activated in multiple types of human cancers, governing the progression of tumor cells as well as the efficacy of anticancer therapy. Here, we discovered that cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (CDK5) rewired glucose metabolism from glycolysis to PPP in breast cancer (BC) cells by activating G6PD to keep intracellular redox homeostasis under oxidative stress. Mechanistically, CDK5-phosphorylated G6PD at Thr-91 facilitated the assembly of inactive monomers of G6PD into active dimers. More importantly, CDK5-induced pho-G6PD was explicitly observed specifically in tumor tissues in human BC specimens. Pharmacological inhibition of CDK5 remarkably abrogated G6PD phosphorylation, attenuated tumor growth and metastasis, and synergistically sensitized BC cells to poly-ADP-ribose polymerase (PARP) inhibitor Olaparib, in xenograft mouse models. Collectively, our results establish the crucial role of CDK5-mediated phosphorylation of G6PD in BC growth and metastasis and provide a therapeutic regimen for BC treatment.

Objective:To investigate the clinicopathological and molecular genetic characteristics of pediatric tumors with DICER1 mutations.Methods:A total of 90 patients diagnosed with various types of pediatric tumors at Beijing Children′s Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China from July 2023 to September 2025 were included in this study. PCR amplification and Sanger sequencing were performed to detect the coding-region mutations of the DICER1 gene. The clinical, histopathological, and molecular genetic features of the cases with DICER1 mutation were then analyzed.Results:Among the 90 patients, 39 were male and 51 were female, with an age of onset ranging from 1 month to 17 years [median 7.13 (2.77, 10.37) years]. DICER1 mutations were detected in 37 patients (37/90, 41.1%). Among them, 9 cases harbored one mutation [6 pleuropulmonary blastomas (PPBs), 2 sex cord stromal tumors (SCSTs), and 1 cystic nephroma (CN)], 27 cases carried two mutations [10 PPBs, 3 anaplastic sarcomas of the kidney (ASKs), 3 SCSTs, 3 thyroid adenoma, 2 nodular thyroid goiters, 2 thyroid follicular lesions, 2 CN, 1 embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma, and 1 case with multiple primary tumors], and 1 case exhibited three mutations (bilateral ASKs). Despite variations in the site of origin, DICER1-mutant tumors shared several morphological features. Grossly, they presented as multilocular cystic, cystic-solid to solid masses. Microscopically, they exhibited a subepithelial layer of mesenchymal cells, with focal rhabdomyoblastic/chondroid/chondrosarcomatous differentiation, as well as cellular anaplasia. Germline testing using peripheral blood in the 31 patients with DICER1 mutation confirmed germline origin in 61.3% (19/31) of them. Parental analysis ( n=12) demonstrated genetic inheritance in 8 cases, predominantly from families with tumor history. Germline variants scattered throughout DICER1 and consisted of loss-of-function mutations (nonsense, frameshift, and splice-site). Somatic mutations showed distinct clustering in exons 24 and 25 hotspots (codons 1705, 1709, 1809, 1810 and 1813), primarily missense variants. Notably, one multiple primary tumor case harbored a somatic mosaic p.E1705K mutation. Conclusions:DICER1 mutations are frequently detected in pediatric PPB, CN, SCST, ASK, nodular thyroid goiter, thyroid adenoma, and genitourinary rhabdomyosarcoma, which often represent as the index case of DICER1 syndrome. Performing DICER1 mutation testing in these patients not only facilitates tumor diagnosis and secondary cancer surveillance, but also enables the comprehensive genetic risk assessment and management for patient′s family members.

Epithelial-mesenchymal transition(EMT)is a critical process in the development of various cancers,including glioma.In glioma cells,the activation of hypoxia-inducible factors(HIFs)can influence the occurrence of EMT,promoting cell migration and invasion.This review aims to explore the role of HIF in the EMT process of glioma cells,focusing on its impact on cell migration and invasion,including regulation of angiogenesis,metabolic reprogramming,glycolysis,and the immune system in the tumor microenvironment.Additionally,this review summarizes the role of HIF in EMT-related signaling pathways,such as Wnt/β-catenin(β-catenin),Notch,and transforming growth factor-β(TGF-β),and provides new insights and directions for further understanding the mechanisms of HIF in the EMT process of glioma cells.

This paper summarizes Professor WANG Xiuxia's clinical experience in treating hyperprolactinemia using the liver soothing therapy. Professor WANG identifies liver qi stagnation and rebellious chong qi （冲气） as the core pathomechanisms of hyperprolactinemia. Furthermore， liver qi stagnation may transform into fire or lead to pathological changes such as spleen deficiency with phlegm obstruction or kidney deficiency with essence depletion. The treatment strategy centers on soothing the liver， with a modified version of Qinggan Jieyu Decoction （清肝解郁汤） as the base formula. Depending on different syndrome patterns such as liver stagnation transforming into fire， liver stagnation with spleen deficiency， or liver stagnation with kidney deficiency， heat clearing， spleen strengthening， or kidney tonifying herbs are added accordingly. In addition， three paired herb combinations are commonly used for symptom specific treatment， Danggui （Angelica sinensis） with Chuanxiong （Ligusticum chuanxiong）， Zelan （Lycopus lucidus） with Yimucao （Leonurus japonicus） ， and Jiegeng （Platycodon grandiflorus） with Zisu （Perilla frutescens）.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of daratumumab in treating patients with monoclonal immunoglobulin deposition disease (MIDD) with renal injury.Methods:A case-series analysis study was conducted in MIDD patients with renal injury who received daratumumab treatment at the Department of Nephrology, Ruijin Hospital, affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, from December 2021 to October 2023. The clinical data of patients at the time of diagnosis and during the follow-up period were collected. Hematological and renal responses were assessed and adverse reaction events were recorded.Results:Seven patients diagnosed with MIDD were included in this study, with a male-to-female ratio of 5∶2 and age of 46 (43, 52) years. One patient was light-heavy chain deposition disease, and the remaining 6 patients were light chain deposition disease. Among them, 5 patients had received prior treatment (1-2 lines of treatment with the regimen of cyclophosphamide, bortezomib and dexamethasone), while 2 patients were newly treated, one of whom had already started hemodialysis at diagnosis. Prior to receiving monoclonal antibody treatment, difference of serum free light chain (dFLC) among the 7 patients was 52 (7, 295) mg/L. Excluding 1 patient on dialysis, the remaining 6 patients had 24-hour urinary protein of 1.1 (0.2, 4.7) g, serum creatinine of 178.5 (157.8, 279.8) μmol/L and estimated glomerular filtration rate of 33.9 (24.2, 41.1) ml·min -1·（1.73 m 2） -1. The daratumumab treatment was 17 (10, 20) infusions, with treatment duration of 17 (9, 23) months and follow-up time of 24 (13, 32) months. After treatment, among 5 previously treated patients, hematological response evaluation showed that 1 patient with baseline dFLC <20 mg/L and minimal residual disease negativity upon re-examination, while the remaining 4 patients achieved hematological responses of complete response or better. Renal response evaluation revealed that, except for 1 patient with partial response, the other 4 patients achieved very good partial response (VGPR) or better. Among 2 newly diagnosed patients, both achieved hematological efficacy at least VGPR, with one achieving renal complete response, while the other one remaining dialysis- dependent. Overall, dFLC of 7 patients was 4.9 (2.1, 11.5) mg/L. Among 6 non-dialysis patients, 24-hour urinary protein was 0.19 (0.06, 0.42) g, serum creatinine was 153.0 (120.8, 188.0) μmol/L and estimated glomerular filtration rate was 40.4 (35.2, 57.3) ml·min -1·(1.73 m 2) -1. No severe adverse reactions were observed during daratumumab treatment. Conclusion:The application of daratumumab in the treatment of MIDD with renal injury is effective and well tolerated, achieving high-quality hematological responses, with high renal responses reaching or exceeding VGPR and improvement of renal function.
