Summary Background Esophageal cancer is a very common malignant tumor in China, especially esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), but there is currently no effective treatment for patients after first-line chemotherapy failure. Apatinib has shown promising outcomes in treatment with various solid tumors. Objectives To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of apatinib combined with S-1 in the treatment of advanced ESCC patients after first-line chemotherapy failure. Methods...
Summary Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) accounts for nearly 90% of all ovarian malignancies. The standard therapeutic strategy includes cytoreductive surgery and neo (adjuvant) platinum-based chemotherapy. Relapse of advanced high grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) is related to the development of drug resistance. A defective DNA damage response is a defining hallmark of HGSOC. Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors exploit this deficiency through synthetic lethality and...

Publication date: December 2019Source: International Immunopharmacology, Volume 77Author(s): Xue-ke Du, Wang-yun Ge, Ren Jing, Ling-hui PanAbstractZ-DNA combined protein-1 (ZBP-1), an important necroptosis regulator, activates necrosis-associated inflammation and immune response. Increased ZBP-1 expression in necroptosis-associated inflammation correlates with activation of receptor interacting protein kinase (RIPK1)/RIPK3 and nuclear factor (NF)-κB. Here we explored the role of ZBP-1-mediated necroptosis...
