Окисляющий стресс и воспаление в патогенезе неврологических расстройств: механизмы и последствия.

Нейрозащита — это активный подход к защите нервной системы, включая мозг, спинной мозг и периферийные нервы, путем предотвращения или ограничения повреждения нервных клеток и других компонентов. Она защищает центральную нервную систему от повреждений от острых и прогрессивных нейродегенеративных расстройств. Окисляющий стресс, дисбаланс между естественными механизмами защиты тела и образованием реактивных видов кислорода, имеет решающее значение для развития неврологических расстройств. Из-за высокой скорости метаболизма и потребления кислорода мозг особенно уязвим к окисляющему стрессу. Чрезм

The metabolites from traditional Chinese medicine targeting ferroptosis for cancer therapy.

Cancer is a major disease with ever-increasing morbidity and mortality. The metabolites derived from traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) have played a significant role in combating cancers with curative efficacy and unique advantages. Ferroptosis, an iron-dependent programmed death characterized by the accumulation of lipid peroxide, stands out from the conventional forms of cell death, such as apoptosis, pyroptosis, necrosis, and autophagy. Recent evidence has demonstrated the potential of TCM metabolites targeting ferroptosis for cancer therapy. We collected and screened related articles publ

Advances in improving cancer immunotherapy with nanotechnology: from smart nanoparticles to synergistic combination strategies.

Cancer immunotherapy has substantially advanced cancer treatment, achieving durable responses in select malignancies. However, its widespread application is limited by significant challenges: low efficacy in many solid tumors, severe side effects, and immune evasion facilitated by the tumor microenvironment (TME). Nanotechnology offers a promising approach to address these obstacles. By employing nanoparticles (NPs), we can precisely deliver therapeutics to tumor sites, ensure controlled release to minimize side effects, and amplify the immune response, thereby substantially boosting the effec

Application of cell-derived exosomes in the hematological malignancies therapy.

Exosomes are small membrane vesicles of endocytic origin that are produced by both tumor and normal cells and can be found in physiological fluids like plasma and cell culture supernatants. They include cytokines, growth factors, proteins, lipids, RNAs, and metabolites and are important intercellular communication controllers in several disorders. According to a vast amount of research, exosomes could support or inhibit tumor start and diffusion in a variety of solid and hematological malignancies by paracrine signaling. Exosomes are crucial therapeutic agents for a variety of illnesses, such

Effects of Physical Cues on Stem Cell-Derived Extracellular Vesicles toward Neuropathy Applications.

The peripheral nervous system undergoes sufficient stress when affected by diabetic conditions, chemotherapeutic drugs, and personal injury. Consequently, peripheral neuropathy arises as the most common complication, leading to debilitating symptoms that significantly alter the quality and way of life. The resulting chronic pain requires a treatment approach that does not simply mask the accompanying symptoms but provides the necessary external environment and neurotrophic factors that will effectively facilitate nerve regeneration. Under normal conditions, the peripheral nervous system self-r

Research progress in inducing immunogenic cell death of tumor cells.

Immunogenic cell death (ICD) is a regulated cell death (RCD) pathway. In response to physical and chemical signals, tumor cells activate specific signaling pathways that stimulate stress responses in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and expose damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs), which promote antitumor immune responses. As a result, the tumor microenvironment is altered, and many tumor cells are killed. The ICD response in tumor cells requires inducers. These inducers can be from different sources and contribute to the development of the ICD either indirectly or directly. The combinati

Organelle-oriented nanomedicines in tumor therapy: Targeting, escaping, or collaborating?

Precise tumor therapy is essential for improving treatment specificity, enhancing efficacy, and minimizing side effects. Targeting organelles is a key strategy for achieving this goal and is a frontier research area attracting a considerable amount of attention. The concept of organelle targeting has a significant effect on the structural design of the nanodrugs employed. Most notably, the intricate interactions among different organelles in a tumor cell essentially create a unified system. Unfortunately, this aspect might have been somewhat overlooked when existing organelle-targeting nanodru

Current Status and Perspectives of Protease Inhibitors and Their Combination with Nanosized Drug Delivery Systems for Targeted Cancer Therapy.

In cancer treatments, many natural and synthetic products have been examined; among them, protease inhibitors are promising candidates for anti-cancer agents. Since dysregulated proteolytic activities can contribute to tumor development and metastasis, antagonization of proteases with tailored inhibitors is an encouraging approach. Although adverse effects of early designs of these inhibitors disappeared after the introduction of next-generation agents, most of the proposed inhibitors did not pass the early stages of clinical trials due to their nonspecific toxicity and lack of pharmacological

Mechanisms of Resistance to Chemotherapy in Breast Cancer and Possible Targets in Drug Delivery Systems.

Breast cancer (BC) is one of the most important cancers worldwide, and usually, chemotherapy can be used in an integrative approach. Usually, chemotherapy treatment is performed in association with surgery, radiation or hormone therapy, providing an increased outcome to patients. However, tumors can develop resistance to different drugs, progressing for a more aggressive phenotype. In this scenario, the use of nanocarriers could help to defeat tumor cell resistance, providing a new therapeutic perspective for patients. Thus, this systematic review aims to bring the molecular mechanisms involve

Two Случаи протеазонных ингибиторов связаны с тромботическими микроангиопатиями и анализом литературы.

Множественная миелома (ММ) является широко распространенной гематологической халатностью, при этом протеазонные ингибиторы (ИП) играют ключевую роль в ее терапевтическом регулировании. Несмотря на то, что ПИ, как правило, хорошо терпимы и связаны с относительно мягкими побочными эффектами, последние данные все чаще привлекают внимание к протеазной ингибиторной тромботической микроангиопатии (TMA, связанной с ИП). ПРЕДОСТАВЛЕНИЕ СЛЕДУЮЩЕГО ВОПРОСА: two :: случаи с высоким клиническим подозрением в связи с ТМА, связанной с ПИ, с уделением особого внимания диагностическому процессу и последующим

Высоко избирательная и верзольная платформа для визуализации липаса Моноацилглицерол.

Monoacylglycerol Lipase (MAGL) — ключевой фермент для прекращения сигнала в эндоканнабиноидной системе (ECS). Ингибиция MAGL приводит к косвенной активации каннабиноидных рецепторов, что дает уникальные преимущества для лечения, например, множественных склерозов, эпилепсии и других неврологических расстройств. Технологии молекулярной съемки являются ценными инструментами, позволяющими преодолеть нынешнее плохое понимание распределения и роли MAGL в пато- и физиологических процессах в рамках сигнала ECS. В этой связи мы представляем информацию о проектировании, синтезе и подтверждении высокосел

The Circular Life of Human CD38: From Basic Science to Clinics and Back.

Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) were initially considered as a possible "magic bullet" for in vivo elimination of tumor cells. mAbs represented the first step: however, as they were murine in nature (the earliest experience on the field), they were considered unfit for human applications. This prompted the development of techniques for cloning the variable regions of conventional murine antibodies, genetically mounted on human IgG. The last step in this years-long process was the design for the preparation of fully human reagents. The choice of the target molecule was also problematic, since canc

Joint manifestations revealing inborn metabolic diseases in adults: a narrative review.

Inborn metabolic diseases (IMD) are rare conditions that can be diagnosed during adulthood. Patients with IMD may have joint symptoms and the challenge is to establish an early diagnosis in order to institute appropriate treatment and prevent irreversible damage. This review describes the joint manifestations of IMD that may be encountered in adults. The clinical settings considered were arthralgia and joint stiffness as well as arthritis. Unspecific arthralgias are often the first symptoms of hereditary hemochromatosis, chronic low back pain may reveal an intervertebral disc calcification in

Communication in the Cancer Microenvironment as a Target for Therapeutic Interventions.

The tumor microenvironment (TME) is a complex system composed of multiple cells, such as non-cancerous fibroblasts, adipocytes, immune and vascular cells, as well as signal molecules and mediators. Tumor cells recruit and reprogram other cells to produce factors that maintain tumor growth. Communication between cancerous and surrounding cells is a two-way process and engages a diverse range of mechanisms that, in consequence, can lead to rapid proliferation, metastasis, and drug resistance, or can serve as a tumors-suppressor, e.g., through tumor-immune cell interaction. Cross-talk within the

FmocFF Peptide Hydrogel Is a Promising Matrix for Encapsulation and Controlled Release of the Anticancer Peptide Drug Bortezomib.

One major public health issue is cancer chemotherapy; despite constant progress in the area, administration of anticancer drugs to patients is often associated with serious side effects. It is therefore imperative to develop vehicles for encapsulation and controlled delivery of such drugs. Anticancer drugs include small peptide drugs, such as Bortezomib (BTZ). Self-assembling peptides have been recently reported as promising drug delivery agents. The research reported here proposes the encapsulation of BTZ into peptide hydrogels formed by the self-assembling FmocFF dipeptide as delivery vehicl

NK3.3-Derived Extracellular Vesicles Penetrate and Selectively Kill Treatment-Resistant Tumor Cells.

Cancer treatments often become ineffective due to the development of tumor resistance, leading to metastasis and relapse. Treatments may also fail because of their inability to access cells deep within the tumor tissue. When this occurs, new therapeutic agents are needed. We previously reported that NK3.3EVs, extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from the normal human natural killer (NK) cell line, NK3.3, have strong cytotoxic activity against leukemia and breast cancer cell lines, without harming normal cells. Here, we used a three-dimensional (3D) MCF7 breast cancer mammosphere model to repro

Моноклональные антитела: от волшебной пули до точного оружия.

США на конец 2023) к 2033 (В тыс.679.03 млрд. долл. США к концу 2033). С момента появления технологии гибридомы 1975, терапия на базе антител была реализована с использованием муринных антител, которые стали еще более гуманизированными и полностью человеческими антителами, что уменьшило риск имм

The Most Competent Plant-Derived Natural Products for Targeting Apoptosis in Cancer Therapy.

Cancer is a challenging problem for the global health community, and its increasing burden necessitates seeking novel and alternative therapies. Most cancers share six basic characteristics known as "cancer hallmarks", including uncontrolled proliferation, refractoriness to proliferation blockers, escaping apoptosis, unlimited proliferation, enhanced angiogenesis, and metastatic spread. Apoptosis, as one of the best-known programmed cell death processes, is generally promoted through two signaling pathways, including the intrinsic and extrinsic cascades. These pathways comprise several compone
