Story summary
  • Nuclear receptors (NRs) are identified as underutilized targets in brain cancer treatment, impacting tumorigenesis and therapeutic resistance.
  • Androgen receptors (ARs) and estrogen receptors (ERs) affect glioblastoma survival and treatment responses, with specific inhibitors improving chemotherapy efficacy.
  • The study calls for extensive preclinical validation and clinical trials for NR-targeted therapies in neuro-oncology.
  • Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are highlighted as potential breast cancer biomarkers, with LINC00974 suggested for early detection.
  • Innovative delivery systems, such as the Vir-inspired Biotechnical Vector (VIBV), aim to improve RNA therapeutic precision in tumor targeting.
