Artificial Intelligence for Risk Stratification in Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma: A Systematic Review of Classification Models and Predictive Performances.

Background: Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is a biologically heterogeneous malignancy, with various outcomes despite significant advances in therapeutic options. Current conventional prognostic tools, e.g., the International Prognostic Index (IPI), lack sufficient precision at an individual patient level. However, artificial intelligence (AI), including machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL), can enable specialists to navigate complex datasets, with the final aim of improving prognostic models for DLBCL. Objectives: This scoping review aims to systematically map the current litera

Therapeutic Modulation of Autophagy in Leukaemia and Lymphoma.

Haematopoiesis is a tightly orchestrated process where a pool of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) with high self-renewal potential can give rise to both lymphoid and myeloid lineages. The HSPCs pool is reduced with ageing resulting in few HSPC clones maintaining haematopoiesis thereby reducing blood cell diversity, a phenomenon called clonal haematopoiesis. Clonal expansion of HSPCs carrying specific genetic mutations leads to increased risk for haematological malignancies. Therefore, it comes as no surprise that hematopoietic tumours develop in higher frequency in elderly peopl

Tackling the cytokine storm in COVID-19, challenges and hopes.

The outbreak of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is the current world health concern, presenting a public health dilemma with ascending morbidity and mortality rates exceeding any previous viral spread, without a standard effective treatment yet. SARS-CoV-2 infection is distinguished with multiple epidemiological and pathological features, one of them being the elevated levels of cytokine release, which in turn trigger an aberrant uncontrolled response known as "cytokine storm". This phenomenon contributes to severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), leading to pneumonia and respir

The Relevance of Mass Spectrometry Analysis for Personalized Medicine through Its Successful Application in Cancer "Omics".

Mass spectrometry (MS) is an essential analytical technology on which the emerging omics domains; such as genomics; transcriptomics; proteomics and metabolomics; are based. This quantifiable technique allows for the identification of thousands of proteins from cell culture; bodily fluids or tissue using either global or targeted strategies; or detection of biologically active metabolites in ultra amounts. The routine performance of MS technology in the oncological field provides a better understanding of human diseases in terms of pathophysiology; prevention; diagnosis and treatment; as well a

In the past 40⁻50 years, Canadian scientists have made ground-breaking discoveries, many of which were successfully translated to the clinic, leading to the formation of biotech companies, the creation of research tools, such as the Lipex Extruder and the NanoAssemblr™, as well as contributing significantly to the development of pharmaceutical products, such as Abelcet®, MyoCet®, Marqibo®, Vyxeos®, and Onpattro™, which are making positive impacts on patient

Rational drug repositioning for coronavirus-associated diseases using directional mapping and side-effect inference.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the pathogen of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), has infected hundreds of millions of people and caused millions of deaths. Looking for valid druggable targets with minimal side effects for the treatment of COVID-19 remains critical. After discovering host genes from multiscale omics data, we developed an end-to-end network method to investigate drug-host gene(s)-coronavirus (CoV) paths and the mechanism of action between the drug and the host factor in a directional network. We also inspected the potential side effect of the ca

Metabolic Alterations in Cancer Cells and the Emerging Role of Oncometabolites as Drivers of Neoplastic Change.

The mitochondrion is an important organelle and provides energy for a plethora of intracellular reactions. Metabolic dysregulation has dire consequences for the cell, and alteration in metabolism has been identified in multiple disease states-cancer being one. Otto Warburg demonstrated that cancer cells, in the presence of oxygen, undergo glycolysis by reprogramming their metabolism-termed "aerobic glycolysis". Alterations in metabolism enable cancer cells to gain a growth advantage by obtaining precursors for macromolecule biosynthesis, such as nucleic acids and lipids. To date, several molec

The GH-IGF-SST system in hepatocellular carcinoma: biological and molecular pathogenetic mechanisms and therapeutic targets.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the sixth most common malignancy worldwide. Different signalling pathways have been identified to be implicated in the pathogenesis of HCC; among these, GH, IGF and somatostatin (SST) pathways have emerged as some of the major pathways implicated in the development of HCC. Physiologically, GH-IGF-SST system plays a crucial role in liver growth and development since GH induces IGF1 and IGF2 secretion and the expression of their receptors, involved in hepatocytes cell proliferation, differentiation and metabolism. On the other hand, somatostatin receptors (SSTRs

Targeting HLA-E in Lung Cancer: The Therapeutic Potential of IRF5-Engineered M1-Macrophage-Derived Exosomes.

Immunotherapy is a pivotal approach in the treatment of lung cancer. Although HLA-E is a potential target for tumor immunotherapy, its role in lung cancer remains unclear. Previous studies have identified the transcription factor IRF5 as a characteristic gene of M1-like macrophages, highlighting its crucial role in promoting antitumor immune responses. In this study, we developed an engineered M1-like macrophage exosomes expressing IRF5 (IRF5 M1-exos) and demonstrated their ability to inhibit proliferation, migration, and invasion of lung cancer cells. Moreover, our experiments using a nude mo

Supra-Physiological Levels of Magnesium Counteract the Inhibitory Effect of Zoledronate on RANKL-Dependent Osteoclastogenesis.

Bisphosphonates (BPs) are drugs used to cure metabolic diseases like osteoporosis and oncological conditions, such as multiple myeloma and bone metastases. The pharmacological activity of these compounds is mediated by their capacity to induce a systemic osteoclast depletion, finally resulting in reduced bone resorption. In spite of their efficacy, the clinical application of BPs is sometimes associated with a frightening side effect known as osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ). In principle, a therapeutic approach able to elicit the local re-activation of osteoclast production could counteract the

In vitro расширила человека CD4+CD25+ регуляционные T клетки, подавляющие распространение Т клеток.

Регулирующие Т клетки (Tregs) оказались критически важными в балансе между автоиммунизацией и терпимостью и были связаны с несколькими аутоиммунными заболеваниями человека. Однако небольшое число трегов в периферии крови ограничивает их терапевтический потенциал. Поэтому мы разработали протокол, который позволит расширить "Трегз" при сохранении их подавляющей активности. Мы изолировали клетки CD4+CD25 hi от человеческой периферической крови и расширили их in vitro в присутствии anti-CD3 и anti-CD28 Магнитные кситы и высокие концентрации внешнего интерлейкина (IL) -2. Траги были эффективно расш

Heterogeneity in precision oncology.

Precision oncology is a rapidly evolving concept that holds great promise in cancer treatment. However, a cancer complexity attributed to genomic and acquired tumour heterogeneity limits treatment effectiveness and increases toxicity. These limitations refer to both systemic therapies and radiotherapy, which are two mainstays of non-invasive cancer treatment. By understanding cancer heterogeneity and utilising advanced tools to personalise treatment strategies, precision oncology has the potential to revolutionise cancer care. In this article, we review the current status of precision oncology

Abstracts for the Eighth Congress of the European Association for Neuro-Oncology (EANO) : September 12–14, 2008 Barcelona, Spain

Background: Standard treatment consisting of surgery, irradiation plus concomitant and following T is established in GBM with median survival of 15.6 months, indicating the need for further effective treatment. In several phase II studies B plus I showed impressive objective response rates (>50%) in pre-treated GBM pts with low toxicity rate, duration of response, however, was moderate. Therefore, B plus I might be an effective induction regimen for T resistant GBM patients as basis for further treatments. In colo-rectal cancer a lower dose of B plus I was effective, therefore B and I dose was
