Targeted therapies in pediatric oncology: A start.

The treatment of cancers was revolutionized by the use of combination "conventional" chemotherapy, first in children, during the 20th century. That foundation of therapy, while having achieved significant advances in survival, has reached its limits. Innovations in targeted therapies are now building upon that foundation to further improve outcomes in pediatric oncology. These targeted agents are designed to narrowly utilize specific biologic processes for greater efficacy and optimally fewer generalized toxicities. I will provide an overview of the current spectrum of targeted therapies avail

Targeting LAG-3, TIM-3, and TIGIT for cancer immunotherapy.

In one decade, immunotherapy based on immune checkpoint blockades (ICBs) has become a new pillar of cancer treatment following surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, and targeted therapies. However, not all cancer patients benefit from single or combination therapy with anti-CTLA-4 and anti-PD-1/PD-L1 monoclonal antibodies. Thus, an increasing number of immune checkpoint proteins (ICPs) have been screened and their effectiveness evaluated in preclinical and clinical trials. Lymphocyte activation gene-3 (LAG-3), T cell immunoglobulin and mucin-domain-containing-3 (TIM-3), and T cell immunoreceptor w

Gene regulation by non-Coding RNAs in infertility: a mechanistic review.

Infertility is a significant global health issue affecting millions of couples, with noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) emerging as pivotal regulators in reproductive biology. This review explores the roles of various ncRNAs, including microRNAs (miRNAs), small interfering RNAs (siRNAs), long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs), and circular RNAs (circRNAs) in male and female infertility. These ncRNAs modulate critical processes such as spermatogenesis, oogenesis, follicular development, and embryo implantation through mechanisms like post-transcriptional regulation, chromatin remode

Cancer-Associated Fibroblasts: Heterogeneity, Cancer Pathogenesis, and Therapeutic Targets.

Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are functionally diverse stromal regulators that orchestrate tumor progression, metastasis, and therapy resistance through dynamic crosstalk within the tumor microenvironment (TME). Recent advances in single-cell multiomics and spatial transcriptomics have identified conserved CAF subtypes with distinct molecular signatures, spatial distributions, and context-dependent roles, highlighting their dual capacity to promote immunosuppression or restrain tumor growth. However, therapeutic strategies struggle to reconcile this functional duality, hindering clinica

Nanomedicine Approaches for Autophagy Modulation in Cancer Therapy.

Cancer is a daunting global health problem with a steadily rising incidence. Despite the wide arsenal of current anticancer therapies, challenges such as drug resistance, tumor heterogeneity, poor targeting, and severe side effects often lead to suboptimal efficacy and poor patient outcomes, highlighting the need for innovative therapies. Autophagy modulation has emerged as an attractive approach to complement existing therapies. The dual role of autophagy in cancer promotion and suppression has inspired the development of new drugs and therapeutic strategies focusing on both inhibition and in

Mesenchymal Stromal Cells: Bridging the Gaps in Hematologic Disease Therapy.

Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) have demonstrated therapeutic potential in hematologic diseases by modulating immune responses, supporting hematopoiesis, and remodeling the bone marrow microenvironment. Clinically, MSCs have been explored for graft-versus-host disease and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation support, while their applications in hematologic malignancies, including acute myeloid leukemia, multiple myeloma, and myelodysplastic syndromes, remain under investigation. However, therapeutic heterogeneity, safety concerns, and standardization challenges limit their clinical transla

Piperine: From Green Extraction to Clinical Translation-A Review.

BACKGROUND: Piperine has diverse pharmacological and bioenhancing activities, but poor aqueous solubility, variable exposure, interaction liability, and discontinuity across production, formulation, and clinical evaluation limit translation. This review integrates these frequently separated stages. METHODS: A structured narrative PubMed search covered English-language studies published from 1 January 2021 to 27 April 2026, supplemented by ClinicalTrials.gov records checked through 13 June 2026, backward citation searching, and selected earlier seminal studies. Evidence was synthesized by expe

Breakthroughs in modern cancer therapy and elusive cardiotoxicity: Critical research-practice gaps, challenges, and insights.

To date, five cancer treatment modalities have been defined. The three traditional modalities of cancer treatment are surgery, radiotherapy, and conventional chemotherapy, and the two modern modalities include molecularly targeted therapy (the fourth modality) and immunotherapy (the fifth modality). The cardiotoxicity associated with conventional chemotherapy and radiotherapy is well known. Similar adverse cardiac events are resurging with the fourth modality. Aside from the conventional and newer targeted agents, even the most newly developed, immune-based therapeutic modalities of anticancer

The nutrigenomic-epigenetic axis in cancer: from dietary bioactives to precision oncology.

Cancer development and progression are increasingly understood to arise from dynamic interactions between genetic alterations and environmentally driven epigenetic regulation, with dietary exposures representing one of the most biologically influential and modifiable factors. Given the expanding evidence linking nutrition to epigenomic remodeling, a comprehensive synthesis of how specific dietary components influence cancer-relevant epigenetic mechanisms is needed to clarify their preventive and therapeutic relevance. This review brings together mechanistic, epidemiologic, and translational fi

Next-generation CAR-T therapy for acute myeloid leukemia: bridging innovation with clinical translation.

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a high-risk hematologic malignancy with poor long-term survival and frequent relapse, sustained by leukemic stem cells, antigenic heterogeneity, and an immunosuppressive bone marrow niche. Although chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy achieves durable responses in B-cell malignancies, its application in AML is restricted by on-target myelotoxicity from antigen overlap with normal progenitors, heterogeneous and dynamic antigen expression, rapid T-cell exhaustion in suppressive microenvironments, limited manufacturing windows with compromised T-cell qual

Porokeratoses-A Comprehensive Review on the Genetics and Metabolomics, Imaging Methods and Management of Common Clinical Variants.

Porokeratosis is a heterogeneous group of keratinising disorders characterised by the presence of particular microscopic structural changes, namely the presence of the cornoid lamella. This structure develops as a consequence of a defective isoprenoid pathway, critical for cholesterol synthesis. Commonly recognised variants include disseminated superficial actinic porokeratosis, disseminated superficial porokeratosis, porokeratosis of Mibelli, palmoplantar porokeratosis (including porokeratosis palmaris et plantaris disseminata and punctate porokeratosis), linear porokeratosis, verrucous porok

Lysosomal storage diseases.

Lysosomes are cytoplasmic organelles that contain a variety of different hydrolases. A genetic deficiency in the enzymatic activity of one of these hydrolases will lead to the accumulation of the material meant for lysosomal degradation. Examples include glycogen in the case of Pompe disease, glycosaminoglycans in the case of the mucopolysaccharidoses, glycoproteins in the cases of the oligosaccharidoses, and sphingolipids in the cases of Niemann-Pick disease types A and B, Gaucher disease, Tay-Sachs disease, Krabbe disease, and metachromatic leukodystrophy. Sometimes, the lysosomal storage ca
