Oxidative Stress: Signaling Pathways, Biological Functions, and Disease.

The dysregulated accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species disrupts redox homeostasis, triggering oxidative stress (OS) and driving pathophysiological changes across multiple organ systems. OS modulates critical signaling pathways, induces inflammation, impairs mitochondrial function, alters metabolic homeostasis, and dysregulates autophagy, contributing to disease progression. While prior research has largely focused on OS within single-organ diseases (e.g., neurodegenerative, cardiovascular, and oncological disorders), the systemic role of OS in pan-organ di

Prevention of Anthracycline-Induced Cardiotoxicity: The Good and Bad of Current and Alternative Therapies.

Doxorubicin (Dox)-induced cardiotoxicity (DIC) remains a serious health burden, especially in developing countries. Unfortunately, the high cost of current preventative strategies has marginalized numerous cancer patients because of socio-economic factors. In addition, the efficacy of these strategies, without reducing the chemotherapeutic properties of Dox, is frequently questioned. These limitations have widened the gap and necessity for alternative medicines, like flavonoids, to be investigated. However, new therapeutics may also present their own shortcomings, ruling out the idea of "natur

The Therapeutic Potential of Secreted Factors from Dental Pulp Stem Cells for Various Diseases.

An alternative source of mesenchymal stem cells has recently been discovered: dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs), including deciduous teeth, which can thus comprise potential tools for regenerative medicine. DPSCs derive from the neural crest and are normally implicated in dentin homeostasis. The clinical application of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) involving DPSCs contains various limitations, such as high cost, low safety, and cell handling issues, as well as invasive sample collection procedures. Although MSCs implantation offers favorable outcomes on specific diseases, implanted MSCs cannot su

Modulation by Ozone Therapy of Oxidative Stress in Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy: The Background for a Randomized Clinical Trial.

(1) Background: Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) decreases the quality of life of patients and can lead to a dose reduction and/or the interruption of chemotherapy treatment, limiting its effectiveness. Potential pathophysiological mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of CIPN include chronic oxidative stress and subsequent increase in free radicals and proinflammatory cytokines. Approaches for the treatment of CIPN are highly limited in their number and efficacy, although several antioxidant-based therapies have been tried. On the other hand, ozone therapy can induce an ada

Histone deacetylase 6: A new player in oxidative stress‑associated disorders and cancers (Review).

Histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6), a distinctive member of the histone deacetylase family, plays a crucial role in regulating the cellular response to oxidative stress. Unlike other HDACs, HDAC6 primarily deacetylates non‑histone proteins, influencing various cellular functions critical to the pathogenesis of numerous oxidative stress‑related diseases. This review summarizes the latest research on how HDAC6 affects oxidative stress pathways and its impact on diseases such as neurodegeneration, cancer and cardiovascular disorders. Additionally, the therapeutic potential of targeting HDAC6, as evide

Decoding iron deficiency in cancer: mechanisms, immune modulation, and therapeutic potential.

Iron is a vital micronutrient in many biological functions, including DNA metabolism, oxygen transport, and cellular energy generation. In this context, it is intimately linked to cancer biology. However, although many studies have comprehensively investigated and reviewed the effects of excess iron on tumor initiation and progression, the potential interrelations of iron deficiency with tumors have been largely neglected and need to be better defined. Recent studies have highlighted the complex relationship between iron deficiency and tumor biology. Iron deficiency in specific tumor types can

Mechanisms of chemotherapy-induced behavioral toxicities.

While chemotherapeutic agents have yielded relative success in the treatment of cancer, patients are often plagued with unwanted and even debilitating side-effects from the treatment which can lead to dose reduction or even cessation of treatment. Common side effects (symptoms) of chemotherapy include (i) cognitive deficiencies such as problems with attention, memory and executive functioning; (ii) fatigue and motivational deficit; and (iii) neuropathy. These symptoms often develop during treatment but can remain even after cessation of chemotherapy, severely impacting long-term quality of lif

Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction in cancer patients and survivors. A scientific statement of the Heart Failure Association of the ESC and the ESC Council of Cardio-Oncology.

Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is increasingly recognized in cancer patients and survivors, yet it remains underdiagnosed and its epidemiology largely unknown. This statement underscores the imperative need to include HFpEF in the cardiotoxicities identified during or after anticancer treatments. It also highlights the prognostic value of pre-existing HFpEF for periprocedural and cardiotoxicity risk and it discusses the challenges in the diagnosis and treatment of HFpEF in cancer patients. It also explores the aetiologic role of anticancer therapies (chemotherapy, targe

Crosstalk between hypoxic cellular micro-environment and the immune system: a potential therapeutic target for infectious diseases.

There are overwhelming reports on the promotional effect of hypoxia on the malignant behavior of various forms of cancer cells. This has been proposed and tested exhaustively in the light of cancer immunotherapy. However, there could be more interesting functions of a hypoxic cellular micro-environment than malignancy. There is a highly intricate crosstalk between hypoxia inducible factor (HIF), a transcriptional factor produced during hypoxia, and nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) which has been well characterized in various immune cell types. This important crosstalk shares common activating an

Established and Emerging Concepts to Treat Imbalances of Iron Homeostasis in Inflammatory Diseases.

Inflammation, being a hallmark of many chronic diseases, including cancer, inflammatory bowel disease, rheumatoid arthritis, and chronic kidney disease, negatively affects iron homeostasis, leading to iron retention in macrophages of the mononuclear phagocyte system. Functional iron deficiency is the consequence, leading to anemia of inflammation (AI). Iron deficiency, regardless of anemia, has a detrimental impact on quality of life so that treatment is warranted. Therapeutic strategies include (1) resolution of the underlying disease, (2) iron supplementation, and (3) iron redistribution str

Green Tea Catechins for Prostate Cancer Prevention: Present Achievements and Future Challenges.

Green tea catechins (GTCs) are a family of chemically related compounds usually classified as antioxidant molecules. Epidemiological evidences, supported by interventional studies, highlighted a more than promising role for GTCs in human prostate cancer (PCa) chemoprevention. In the last decades, many efforts have been made to gain new insights into the mechanism of action of GTCs. Now it is clear that GTCs' anticancer action can no longer be simplistically limited to their direct antioxidant/pro-oxidant properties. Recent contributions to the advancement of knowledge in this field have shown
