Abstract
Background Inhibitors of the anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) gene mutation are highly effective treatments for ALK-positive lung cancer. We conducted this pharmacovigilance analysis using the Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS). Patients and methods FAERS files from 2012 to 2020 were used. Reports for crizotinib, ceritinib, alectinib, brigatinib, and lorlatinib were filtered. We used the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA version 22.1). Further, we searched for adverse events on the preferred term (PT) level based on case reports in the literature. After filtering duplicate reports, disproportionality analysis was used to detect safety signals by calculating proportional reporting ratios (PRRs), reporting odds ratios (RORs), empirical Bayesian geometric mean, and information component. Reports were considered statistically significant if the 95% confidence interval did not contain the null value. Results Within the system organ classes, significant safety signals were found, including those for crizotinib [eye disorders (PRR 2.09, ROR 2.12)], ceritinib [gastrointestinal disorders (PRR 2.19, ROR 2.41), hepatobiliary disorders (PRR 4.4, ROR 4.52), respiratory disorders (PRR 1.96, ROR 2.08)], alectinib [hepatobiliary disorders (PRR 2.60, ROR 2.63)], brigatinib [respiratory disorders (PRR 2.15, ROR 2.31)], and lorlatinib [metabolism disorders (PRR 3.34, ROR 3.53)]. For adverse events on the PT level, we found several significant signals, including pneumothorax with crizotinib (PRR 3.29, ROR 3.29), ceritinib (PRR 3.13, ROR 3.13), and alectinib (PRR 4.88, ROR 4.89); myasthenia gravis with lorlatinib (PRR 6.05, ROR 6.05); photosensitivity reactions with crizotinib (PRR 2.20, ROR 2.20), ceritinib (PRR 4.30, ROR 4.31), alectinib (PRR 20.43, ROR 20.51), and brigatinib (PRR 20.97, ROR 21.05); pulmonary arterial hypertension with brigatinib (PRR 2.92, ROR 2.92) and lorlatinib (PRR 9.2, ROR 9.24); and rectal perforation with crizotinib (PRR 7.83, ROR 7.83). All the detected safety signals were confirmed using Bayesian methods. Conclusion ALK inhibitors differed in their safety profile reports. We found several significant safety signals that matched previously published case reports, including pulmonary arterial hypertension, rectal perforation, myasthenia gravis, and photosensitivity. These signals require further regulatory investigation to determine their significance and potentially update the product labels to inform patients and clinicians.

Abstract
Colicin N (ColN) is a bacteriocin secreted by Escherichia coli (E. coli) to kill other Gram-negative bacteria by forcefully generating ion channels in the inner membrane. In addition to its bactericidal activity, ColN have been reported to selectively induce apoptosis in human lung cancer cells via the suppression of integrin modulated survival pathway. However, ColN showed mild toxicity against human lung cancer cells which could be improved for further applications. The protein resurfacing strategy was chosen to engineer ColN by extensive mutagenesis at solvent-exposed residues on ColN. The highly accessible Asp and Glu on wildtype ColN (ColNWT) were replaced by Lys to create polycationic ColN (ColN+12). Previous studies have shown that increase of positive charges on proteins leads to the enhancement of mammalian cell penetration as well as increased interaction with negatively charged surface of cancer cells. Those solvent-exposed residues of ColN were identified by Rosetta and AvNAPSA (Average number of Neighboring Atoms Per Sidechain Atom) approaches. The findings revealed that the structural features and stability of ColN+12 determined by circular dichroism were similar to ColNWT. Furthermore, the toxicity of ColN+12 was cancer selective. Human lung cancer cells, H460 and H23, were sensitive to ColN but human dermal papilla cells were not. ColN+12 also showed more potent toxicity than ColNWT in cancer cells. This confirmed that polycationic resurfacing method has enabled us to improve the anticancer activity of ColN towards human lung cancer cells.

Abstract
Cancer stem-like cells (CSCs) are key mediators driving tumor initiation, metastasis, therapeutic failure, and subsequent cancer relapse. Thus, targeting CSCs has recently emerged as a potential strategy to improve chemotherapy. In this study, the anticancer activity and stemness-regulating capacity of 4,5,4'-trihydroxy-3,3'-dimethoxybibenzyl (TDB), a bibenzyl extracted from Dendrobium ellipsophyllum, are revealed in CSCs of various human lung cancer cells. Culture with TDB (5-10 μM) strongly abolished tumor-initiating cells in lung cancer H460, H23, and A549 cells in both anchorage-dependent and anchorage-independent colony formation assays. Through the 3D single-spheroid formation model, attenuation of self-renewal capacity was observed in CSC-enriched populations treated with 1-10 μM TDB for 7 days. Flow cytometry analysis confirmed the attenuation of %cell overexpressing CD133, a CSC biomarker, in TDB-treated lung cancer spheroids. TDB at 5-10 μM remarkably suppressed regulatory signals of p-Akt/Akt, p-GSK3β/GSK3β, and β-catenin corresponding to the downregulated mRNA level of stemness transcription factors including Nanog, Oct4, and Sox2. Moreover, the antiapoptosis Bcl-2 and Mcl-1 proteins, which are downstream molecules of Akt signaling, were evidently decreased in CSC-enriched spheroids after culture with TDB (1-10 μM) for 24 h. Interestingly, the diminution of Akt expression by specific siAkt effectively reversed suppressive activity of TDB targeting on the CSC phenotype in human lung cancer cells. These findings provide promising evidence of the inhibitory effect of TDB against lung CSCs via suppression of Akt/GSK3β/β-catenin cascade and related proteins, which would facilitate the development of this bibenzyl natural compound as a novel CSC-targeted therapeutic approach for lung cancer treatment.

Abstract
The inherent limitations, including serious side-effects and drug resistance, of current chemotherapies necessitate the search for alternative treatments especially for lung cancer. Herein, the anticancer activity of colicin N, bacteria-produced antibiotic peptide, was investigated in various human lung cancer cells. After 24 h of treatment, colicin N at 5–15 µM selectively caused cytotoxicity detected by MTT assay in human lung cancer H460, H292 and H23 cells with no noticeable cell death in human dermal papilla DPCs cells. Flow cytometry analysis of annexin V-FITC/propidium iodide indicated that colicin N primarily induced apoptosis in human lung cancer cells. The activation of extrinsic apoptosis evidenced with the reduction of c-FLIP and caspase-8, as well as the modulation of intrinsic apoptosis signaling proteins including Bax and Mcl-1 were observed via Western blot analysis in lung cancer cells cultured with colicin N (10–15 µM) for 12 h. Moreover, 5–15 µM of colicin N down-regulated the expression of activated Akt (p-Akt) and its upstream survival molecules, integrin β1 and αV in human lung cancer cells. Taken together, colicin N exhibits selective anticancer activity associated with suppression of integrin-modulated survival which potentiate the development of a novel therapy with high safety profile for treatment of human lung cancer.

Abstract
The interaction between hair and malignancy is complicated. Various hair abnormalities can manifest in oncology patients as a clinical manifestation, the result of cancer therapy, or due to a paraneoplastic condition. The mechanisms of these changes remain unclear. Alopecia is one of the common clinical presentations occurring in oncology patients that affects their quality of life. The condition can concomitantly develop during the course of malignancy or when patients undergo cancer treatment. It is important for physicians to understand alopecia in association with malignancy as it may be an important associated finding or provide the clues to aid diagnosis. The aim of this review is to summarize the clinical characteristics of alopecia that occur in cancer patients and their relationship with the type of malignancy and its treatment.

Abstract
Failure of current chemotherapeutic drugs leads to the recurrence of tumor pathology and mortality in lung cancer patients. This study aimed to evaluate the anticancer activity and related mechanisms of 4,5,4'-trihydroxy-3,3'-dimethoxybibenzyl (TDB), a bibenzyl extracted from Dendrobium ellipsophyllum Tang and Wang, in human lung cancer cells. Cytotoxicity of TDB (0-300 µM) in different types of human lung cancer cells (H460, H292 and H23) and human dermal papilla cells (DPCs) was evaluated via MTT viability assay. Selective anticancer activity of TDB against human lung cancer cells was demonstrated with a high IC50 (approximately > 300 µM) in DPCs, while IC50 in human lung cancer H460, H292 and H23 cells was approximately 100 ± 5.18, 100 ± 8.73 and 188.89 ± 8.30 µM, respectively. After treatment with 50 µM of TDB for 24 h, flow cytometry analysis revealed the significant increase of early and late apoptosis with absence of necrosis cell death in human lung cancer cells. The up-regulation of p53, a tumor-suppressor protein, was elucidated in human lung cancer cells treated with 10-50 µM of TDB. Alteration to down-stream signaling of p53 including activation of pro-apoptosis protein (Bcl-2-associated X protein; Bax), reduction of anti-apoptosis (B cell lymphoma 2; Bcl-2 and myeloid cell leukemia 1; Mcl-1) and suppression on protein kinase B (Akt) survival pathway were notified in TDB-treated lung cancer cells. The information obtained from this study strengthens the potential development of TDB as an anticancer compound with a favorable human safety profile and high efficacy.

Abstract
CONTEXT Lentinus squarrosulus Mont. (Polyporaceae) is an interesting source of diverse bioactive compounds. OBJECTIVE This is the first study of the anticancer activity and underlying mechanism of peptides extracted from Lentinus squarrosuls. MATERIALS AND METHODS Peptides were isolated from the aqueous extract of L. squarrosulus by employing solid ammonium sulphate precipitation. They were further purified by ion-exchange chromatography on diethylaminoethanol (DEAE)-cellulose and gel filtration chromatography on Sephadex G25. Anticancer activity was investigated in human lung cancer H460, H292 and H23 cells cultured with 0-40 μg/mL of peptide extracts for 24 h. Cell viability and mode of cell death were evaluated by MTT and nuclear staining assay, respectively. Western blotting was used to investigate the alteration of apoptosis-regulating proteins in lung cancer cells treated with peptide extracts (0-20 μg/mL) for 24 h. RESULTS The cytotoxicity of partially-purified peptide extracts from L. squarrosulus was indicated with IC50 of ∼26.84 ± 2.84, 2.80 ± 2.14 and 18.84 ± 0.30 μg/mL in lung cancer H460, H292 and H23 cells, respectively. The extracts at 20 μg/mL induced apoptosis through the reduction of anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 protein (∼0.5-fold reduction) and up-regulation of BAX (∼4.5-fold induction), a pro-apoptotic protein. Furthermore, L. squarrosulus peptide extracts (20 μg/mL) also decreased the cellular level of death receptor inhibitor c-FLIP (∼0.6-fold reduction). CONCLUSIONS AND DISCUSSION This study provides the novel anticancer activity and mechanism of L. squarrosulus peptide extracts, which encourage further investigation and development of the extracts for anticancer use.
