Folate receptors and transporters and one-carbon metabolism continue to be important areas of study given their essential roles in an assortment of diseases and as targets for treatment of cancer and inflammation. Reflecting this, every 2 years, the Folate Receptor Society organizes an international meeting, alternating between North America and Europe, where basic and translational scientists, clinical oncologists and rheumatologists from both academia and industry convene in an informal setting. The 7th International Symposium on Folate Receptors and Transporters was held in Sant’Alessio Siculo (ME), Taormina, Italy from 1st to 5th of October 2018, organized by Dr. Mariangela Figini from Fondazione IRCCS Istituto Nazionale dei Tumori, Milan. Following the format of previous meetings, more than 50 scientists from 9 different countries attended the 2018 meeting to share ongoing developments, discuss current research challenges and identify new avenues in basic and translational research. An important feature of this meeting was the participation of young investigators and trainees in this area, two (A. Dekhne and N. Verweij) of whom were awarded fellowships to attend this meeting as a recognition of the high scientific quality of their work. This report provides a synopsis of the highlights presented in the following sessions: Barton Kamen Lecture; Targeting one-carbon metabolism in cytosol and mitochondria; Structure and biology of the one-carbon solute transporters; Physiology and pathophysiology of folate receptors and transporters; Folate receptors for targeting tumors and inflammatory diseases; Conventional and new anti-folate drugs for treating inflammatory diseases and cancer; Imaging; Ongoing clinical trials; and Chimeric Antigen Receptor cell therapies of cancer.
