Immune checkpoint inhibitors have become one of the cornerstones of therapy in kidney cancer, but their use is linked to a variety of side effects that affect almost every organ and resemble autoimmune diseases. In the kidney, these drugs can induce acute interstitial nephritis in close to 5% of patients with varying degrees of severity that in some cases require discontinuation of treatment and systemic treatment with corticosteroids. Piceatannol mw Although mammalian target of rapamycin inhibitors now also are part of the therapeutic armamentarium available for these patients, all clinical trials have been performed in patients with normal renal function and therefore their effects in patients with abnormal renal function are not known. Surgical resection of renal cell carcinoma plays a large role in the overall management of the disease. The gold standard for surgical management historically has been open or laparoscopic radical nephrectomy, however, evidence of equivalent oncologic efficacy with improved clinical outcomes has driven the use of nephron-sparing surgeries, especially for smaller and localized renal tumors. A role for surgery remains in metastatic RCC as well, but controversy exists as to which patients may benefit most from surgical intervention in addition to other systemic targeted therapies. This article focuses specifically on renal cell carcinoma, transitional cell carcinoma is not described here. Oncologic treatments for renal cell carcinoma (RCC) have undergone a major revolution in the past 2 decades, moving away from the pre-2004 Dark Age during which interleukin 2 and interferon-α were the only therapeutic options and induced treatment responses in only 5% to 10% of patients with metastatic disease. The development of anti-angiogenic tyrosine kinase inhibitors against vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 and inhibitors of mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 in 2005 introduced the Modern Age with better overall and progression-free survival and a greater number of patients (30%-40%) responding to and (∼80%) benefiting from these targeted therapeutic agents. The coming of age of the immuno-oncology era with the use of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have ushered us into the Golden Age of metastatic RCC care, in which combined administrations of two ICIs (anti-programmed cell death protein 1/programmed death-ligand 1 and anti-cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 or one tyrosine kinase inhibitor plus one ICI (anti-programmed cell death protein 1/programmed death-ligand 1) have recast the treatment landscape of clear cell RCC, the most common RCC subtype, with an approximately 60% response rate and an approximately 90% disease control rate that further improves metastatic RCC survival. Exciting clinical trials are in the pipeline investigating complementary/synergistic molecular mechanisms, based on studies investigating the biology, pathology, and genomics of renal carcinoma and the respective treatment outcome. This will enable us to enter the Diamond Age of precision medicine in which a specific treatment can be tailored to the specific biological and pathologic circumstance of an individual kidney tumor to offer more effective yet less toxic therapy. Metabolic reprogramming is one of the major steps that tumor cells take during cancer progression. This process allows the cells to survive in a nutrient- and oxygen-deprived environment, to become stress tolerant, and to metastasize to different sites. Recent studies have shown that reprogramming happens in stromal cells and involves the cross-talk of the cancer cell/tumor microenvironment. There are similarities between the metabolic reprogramming that occurs in both noncancerous kidney diseases and renal cell carcinoma (RCC), suggesting that such reprogramming is a means by which renal epithelial cells survive injury and repair the tissue, and that RCC cells hijack this system. This article reviews reprogramming of major metabolism pathways in RCC, highlighting similarities and differences from kidney diseases and potential therapeutic strategies against it. Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is a major cancer yet has long evaded extensive efforts to target it chemotherapeutically. Recent efforts to characterize its proteome and metabolome in a grade-defined manner has resulted in a global proteometabolomic reprogramming model yielding a number of potential drug targets, many of which are under the control of transcription factor and MYC proto-oncogene, bHLH transcription factor. Furthermore, through the use of conventional technologies such as immunohistochemistry, protein moonlighting, a phenomenon wherein a single protein performs more than one distinct biochemical or biophysical functions, is emerging as a second mode of operation for ccRCC metabolo-proteomic reprogramming. This renders the subcellular localization of the grade-defining biomarkers an additional layer of grade-defining ccRCC molecular signature, although its functional significance in ccRCC etiology is only beginning to emerge. NMR spectroscopy of oriented samples makes accessible residual anisotropic intramolecular NMR interactions, such as chemical shift anisotropy (RCSA), dipolar coupling (RDC), and quadrupolar coupling (RQC), while preserving high spectral resolution. In addition, in a chiral aligned environment, enantiomers of chiral molecules or enantiopic elements of prochiral compounds adopt different average orientations on the NMR timescale, and hence produce distinct NMR spectra or signals. NMR spectroscopy in chiral aligned media is a powerful analytical tool, and notably provides unique information on (pro)chirality analysis, natural isotopic fractionation, stereochemistry, as well as molecular conformation and configuration. Significant progress has been made in this area over the three last decades, particularly using polypeptide-based chiral liquid crystals (CLCs) made of organic solutions of helically chiral polymers (as PBLG) in organic solvents. This review presents an overview of NMR in polymeric LCs. In particular, we describe the theoretical tools and the major NMR methods that have been developed and applied to study (pro)chiral molecules dissolved in such oriented solvents. We also discuss the representative applications illustrating the analytical potential of this original NMR tool. This overview article is dedicated to thirty years of original contributions to the development of NMR spectroscopy in polypeptide-based chiral liquid crystals.
