Targeting HDACs with dacinostat amplifies radiation-induced DNA damage via sustained phosphorylated p53 and repair inhibition in aggressive meningioma.

The lack of standard systemic treatments in meningioma presents a therapeutic challenge, making radiotherapy a crucial intervention for recurrent, high-grade, or inoperable tumours. Nonetheless, the efficacy of radiotherapy is constrained by the inherent radioresistance of meningiomas, attributed to their proficient DNA damage repair and robust cell cycle checkpoint regulation. These biological barriers, along with anatomical constraints of avoiding damage to adjacent neural tissues, restrict dose escalation and therapeutic gains. Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are mediators of radioresistance i

The novel role of circular RNA ST3GAL6 on blocking gastric cancer malignant behaviours through autophagy regulated by the FOXP2/MET/mTOR axis.

Gastric cancer (GC) ranks third in mortality among all cancers worldwide. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) play an important role in the occurrence and development of gastric cancer. Forkhead box P2 (FOXP2), as a transcription factor, is closely associated with the development of many types of tumours. However, the regulatory network between FOXP2 and circRNAs remains to be explored. In our study, circST3GAL6 was significantly downregulated in GC and was associated with poor prognosis in GC patients. Overexpression of circST3GAL6 inhibited the malignant behaviours of GC cells, which was mediated by in

Emerging Nanopharmaceuticals and Nanonutraceuticals in Cancer Management.

Nanotechnology is the science of nanoscale, which is the scale of nanometers or one billionth of a meter. Nanotechnology encompasses a broad range of technologies, materials, and manufacturing processes that are used to design and/or enhance many products, including medicinal products. This technology has achieved considerable progress in the oncology field in recent years. Most chemotherapeutic agents are not specific to the cancer cells they are intended to treat, and they can harm healthy cells, leading to numerous adverse effects. Due to this non-specific targeting, it is not feasible to a

Polybasic nanogels for intracellular co-delivery of paclitaxel and carboplatin: a novel approach to ovarian cancer therapy.

Ovarian cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths in women, with limited progress in treatments despite decades of research. Common treatment protocols rely on surgical removal of tumors and chemotherapy drugs, such as paclitaxel and carboplatin, which are capable of reaching cancer cells throughout the body. However, the effectiveness of these drugs is often limited due to toxic reactions in patients, nonspecific drug distribution affecting healthy cells, and the development of treatment resistance. In this study, we introduce a polybasic nanogel system composed of poly(die

The Potential of Mushroom Extracts to Improve Chemotherapy Efficacy in Cancer Cells: A Systematic Review.

Chemoresistance is a challenge in cancer treatment, limiting the effectiveness of chemotherapy. Mushroom extracts have shown potential as treatments for cancer therapies, offering a possible solution to overcome chemoresistance. This systematic review aimed to explore the role of mushroom extracts in enhancing chemotherapy and reversing chemoresistance in cancer cells.

The extracts acted by inhibiting the proliferation of cancer cells, as well as enhancing the effect of che

Bortezomib-induced aerobic glycolysis contributes to chemotherapy-induced painful peripheral neuropathy.

Chemotherapy-induced painful peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is the most common toxicity associated with widely used chemotherapeutics. CIPN is the major cause of dose reduction or discontinuation of otherwise life-saving treatment. Unfortunately, CIPN can persist in cancer survivors, which adversely affects their quality of life. Moreover, available treatments are vastly inadequate, warranting a better understanding of the biochemical and metabolic mechanisms that occur in response to chemotherapeutics which would be critical for the development of novel therapies for CIPN. Using extracellular f

Autoimmune Rheumatic Diseases and Vascular Function: The Concept of Autoimmune Atherosclerosis.

Autoimmune rheumatic diseases (AIRDs) with unknown etiology are increasing in incidence and prevalence. Up to 5% of the population is affected. AIRDs include rheumatoid arthritis, system lupus erythematosus, systemic sclerosis, and Sjögren's syndrome. In patients with autoimmune diseases, the immune system attacks structures of its own body, leading to widespread tissue and organ damage, which, in turn, is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. One third of the mortality associated with autoimmune diseases is due to cardiovascular diseases. Atherosclerosis is considered the main un

Carpal tunnel syndrome.

Carpal tunnel syndrome is one of the most common peripheral neuropathies. It affects mainly middle aged women. In the majority of patients the exact cause and pathogenesis of CTS is unclear. Although several occupations have been linked to increased incidence and prevalence of CTS the evidence is not clear. Occupational CTS is uncommon and it is essential to exclude all other causes particularly the intrinsic factors such as obesity before attributing it to occupation. The risk of CTS is high in occupations involving exposure to high pressure, high force, repetitive work, and vibrating tools.

The Arrhythmic Burden of Cardiac Amyloidosis: A Comprehensive Review.

Cardiac amyloidosis (CA) represents a growing etiology of heart failure (HF) and arrhythmogenesis, driven by the intramyocardial deposition of aberrantly folded proteins, notably immunoglobulin light chains (AL) and transthyretin (ATTR). This infiltrative process compromises myocardial compliance and disrupts the cardiac conduction system, leading to a diverse spectrum of dysrhythmias. The escalating prevalence of CA, particularly within geriatric demographics and individuals with plasma cell dyscrasias, underscores the imperative for refined diagnostic and therapeutic paradigms. The considera

Micro and nanotechnologies: The little formulations that could.

The first publication of micro- and nanotechnology in medicine was in 1798 with the use of the Cowpox virus by Edward Jenner as an attenuated vaccine against Smallpox. Since then, there has been an explosion of micro- and nanotechnologies for medical applications. The breadth of these micro- and nanotechnologies is discussed in this piece, presenting the date of their first report and their latest progression (e.g., clinical trials, FDA approval).

The various therapeutic applications of the medical isotope holmium-166: a narrative review.

Over the years, a broad spectrum of applications of the radionuclide holmium-166 as a medical isotope has been established. The isotope holmium-166 is attractive as it emits high-energy beta radiation which can be used for a therapeutic effect and gamma radiation which can be used for nuclear imaging purposes. Furthermore, holmium-165 can be visualized by MRI because of its paramagnetic properties and by CT because of its high density. Since holmium-165 has a natural abundance of 100%, the only by-product is metastable holmium-166 and no costly chemical purification steps are necessary for pro

Efficacy of Polymer-Based Nanocarriers for Co-Delivery of Curcumin and Selected Anticancer Drugs.

Successful salvage of a severe COVID-19 patient previously with lung cancer and radiation pneumonitis by mesenchymal stem cells: a case report and literature review.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, elderly patients with underlying condition, such as tumors, had poor prognoses after progressing to severe pneumonia and often had poor response to standard treatment. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) may be a promising treatment for patients with severe pneumonia, but MSCs are rarely used for patients with carcinoma. Here, we reported a 67-year-old female patient with lung adenocarcinoma who underwent osimertinib and radiotherapy and suffered from radiation pneumonitis. Unfortunately, she contracted COVID-19 and that rapidly progressed to severe pneumonia. She respo
