SETD7-mediated H3K4me1 activates ALDH1A3 to drive ferroptosis resistance in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma
SETD7, a histone lysine methyltransferase, is significantly overexpressed in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) and correlates with clinical staging. This study demonstrates that SETD7 promotes ESCC cell proliferation and migration while enhancing resistance to ferroptosis through H3K4me1-mediated activation of ALDH1A3. The findings suggest that targeting SETD7 could provide a novel therapeutic strategy for ESCC, a cancer with poor prognosis and limited treatment options.
MDMX reprograms glycolysis of hepatocellular carcinoma via 14-3-3γ/FOXO1
MDMX plays a crucial role in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) by promoting glycolysis through the degradation of FOXO1, a key tumor suppressor. The study demonstrates that MDMX is overexpressed in HCC tissues, correlating with poor patient prognosis, particularly in those with mutant p53. Mechanistically, MDMX enhances the interaction between FOXO1 and 14-3-3γ, leading to FOXO1 degradation and subsequent metabolic reprogramming. These findings suggest that targeting MDMX could provide new therapeutic strategies for HCC treatment.
