Cell-based therapy in prophylaxis and treatment of chronic graft-versus-host disease.

Hematopoietic allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT) is a curative option for patients with hematological malignancies. However, due to disparities in major and minor histocompatibility antigens between donor and recipient, severe inflammatory complications can occur, among which chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) can be life-threatening. A classical therapeutic approach to the prevention and treatment of cGVHD has been broad immunosuppression, but more recently adjuvant immunotherapies have been tested. This review summarizes and discusses immunomodulatory approaches with T ce

Advances and development of prostate cancer, treatment, and strategies: A systemic review.

The most common type of cancer in the present-day world affecting modern-day men after lung cancer is prostate cancer. Prostate cancer remains on the list of top three cancer types claiming the highest number of male lives. An estimated 1.4 million new cases were reported worldwide in 2020. The incidence of prostate cancer is found predominantly in the regions having a high human development index. Despite the fact that considerable success has been achieved in the treatment and management of prostate cancer, it remains a challenge for scientists and clinicians to curve the speedy advancement

Telomerase-targeted therapies in myeloid malignancies.

Human telomeres are tandem arrays that are predominantly composed of 5'-TTAGGG-3' nucleotide sequences at the terminal ends of chromosomes. These sequences serve 2 primary functions: they preserve genomic integrity by protecting the ends of chromosomes, preventing inappropriate degradation by DNA repair mechanisms, and they prevent loss of genetic information during cellular division. When telomeres shorten to reach a critical length, termed the Hayflick limit, cell senescence or death is triggered. Telomerase is a key enzyme involved in synthesizing and maintaining the length of telomeres wit

Antioxidants in brain tumors: current therapeutic significance and future prospects.

Brain cancer is regarded among the deadliest forms of cancer worldwide. The distinct tumor microenvironment and inherent characteristics of brain tumor cells virtually render them resistant to the majority of conventional and advanced therapies. Oxidative stress (OS) is a key disruptor of normal brain homeostasis and is involved in carcinogenesis of different forms of brain cancers. Thus, antioxidants may inhibit tumorigenesis by preventing OS induced by various oncogenic factors. Antioxidants are hypothesized to inhibit cancer initiation by endorsing DNA repair and suppressing cancer progress

Post-transplant cyclophosphamide-induced cardiotoxicity: A comprehensive review.

Cyclophosphamide-induced cardiotoxicity, associated with its toxic metabolite acrolein, is a significant concern and unresolved issue, especially when cyclophosphamide is administrated in high doses. However, cardiotoxicity following low-dose cyclophosphamide has been also documented, especially in post-hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (post-HSCT) settings. Despite the involvement of multiple signaling pathways in cyclophosphamide-induced cardiomyopathy, the exact underlying mechanisms remain to be fully elucidated. This review outlines the current challenges of cyclophosphamide therapy

Mechanistic and Clinical Perspectives on Traditional Chinese Medicine in Thyroid Cancer Management.

Thyroid cancer is one of the most prevalent malignancies of the endocrine system, comprising various subtypes such as papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC), follicular thyroid carcinoma (FTC), medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC), and the aggressive anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (ATC). Despite a generally favorable prognosis for PTC, recurrence, metastasis, and resistance to conventional therapies continue to pose significant challenges. The pathogenesis of thyroid cancer involves genetic mutations in BRAF, RAS, and RET, as well as dysregulated molecular pathways such as MAPK, PI3K/Akt/mTOR, and NF-κB

Synchronous occurrence of Waldenström macroglobulinemia and HER2-positive gastric adenocarcinoma with gastrointestinal stromal tumor: a rare case report.

There are very few reports of gastric cancer (GC) and gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) occurring at the same time in the literature. In particular, the collision of GIST and human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER-2)-positive gastric carcinoma in a patient with Waldenström macroglobulinemia (WM) has never been reported. We report the case of an 80-year-old male who initially presented with dizziness with fatigue for more than 1 month. He underwent total gastrectomy. Pathology revealed GC (moderately to poorly differentiated tubular adenocarcinoma), GIST (low-risk category) and low-g

What nature has to offer: Opportunities for immuno-oncology.

Recent rapid development of cancer therapy has come about with the paradigm shift from the traditional goal of targeting cancer cells themselves, to reprograming the immune tumor microenvironment. Accumulating evidence shows that compounds that target epigenetic regulation, called epidrugs, play a crucial role in mediating the immunogenicity of cancer cells and in reshaping antitumor immunity. A large body of literature has recognized natural compounds as epigenetic modulators for their immunomodulatory effects and anticancer potential. Unifying our understanding of the role of these biologica

Генетическая основа болезни.

Генетика в той или иной степени играет определенную роль во всех заболеваниях. Изменения в нашей ДНК и различия в том, как эта ДНК функционирует (одиночка или комбинация), наряду с окружающей средой (которая включает образ жизни), способствуют болезнетворным процессам. В рамках этого обзора изучается генетическая основа человеческих заболеваний, включая однородные генетические расстройства, хромосомные диспропорции, эпигенетические, раковые и сложные расстройства, и рассматривается вопрос о том, каким образом наше понимание и технологические достижения могут быть использованы для обеспечения н

Cellular Senescence and Aging: Mechanisms, Disease Convergence, and Therapeutic Frontiers.

Cellular senescence, a stress-induced, irreversible cell cycle arrest coupled with a proinflammatory secretory phenotype, has emerged as both a central driver of aging and a tractable therapeutic target. Although acute senescence contributes beneficially to tumor suppression and wound healing, chronic accumulation of senescent cells sustains systemic inflammaging and accelerates organ dysfunction. This review synthesizes current progress in aging biology into a unified mechanistic and translational framework. We first examine how primary aging hallmarks, such as genomic instability and epigene

State of the Art of Pharmacological Activators of p53 in Ocular Malignancies.

The pivotal role of p53 in the regulation of a vast array of cellular functions has been the subject of extensive research. The biological activity of p53 is not strictly limited to cell cycle arrest but also includes the regulation of homeostasis, DNA repair, apoptosis, and senescence. Thus, mutations in the p53 gene with loss of function represent one of the major mechanisms for cancer development. As expected, due to its key role, p53 is expressed throughout the human body including the eye. Specifically, altered p53 signaling pathways have been implicated in the development of conjunctival

Genome Instability in Multiple Myeloma: Facts and Factors.

Multiple myeloma (MM) is a malignant neoplasm of terminally differentiated immunoglobulin-producing B lymphocytes called plasma cells. MM is the second most common hematologic malignancy, and it poses a heavy economic and social burden because it remains incurable and confers a profound disability to patients. Despite current progress in MM treatment, the disease invariably recurs, even after the transplantation of autologous hematopoietic stem cells (ASCT). Biological processes leading to a pathological myeloma clone and the mechanisms of further evolution of the disease are far from complete
