AbstractSideroflexin 1 (SFXN1), a newly identified mitochondrial serine transporter, exhibits great potential to modulate mitochondrial function and promote tumor development. However, its role in bladder cancer (BLCA) remains unclear. Our study revealed that SFXN1 was enriched in clinical BLCA tissues, and high SFXN1 expression in BLCA was positively associated with the progression and poor prognosis.

ABSTRACTAims To determine whether using a pH-sensitive peptide (CBX-15) for antigen-independent targeting of MMAE to tumors induced anti-tumor efficacy via direct and immunological mechanisms in the rat tumor model. Methods CBX-15 was assessed for its ability to kill tumor cells and induce immunogenic cell death (ICD) in female Fischer rats bearing syngeneic 13762 mammary adenocarcinoma tumors via in vivo and ex vivo functional assays.

AbstractMetal single-atom catalysts offer improved activity and selectivity due to their unique electronic and coordination properties compared with bulk metals. However, many single-atom catalysts suffer from randomly dispersed active sites and limited electron-donating ability due to bonding with electronegative elements or less reactive metals. Here we demonstrate that Mg-rich intermetallic Mg29TM4 (TM = Pd, Rh, Ir, Pt) nanocatalysts overcome these limitations.
