Image-based drug screen identifies HDAC inhibitors as novel Golgi disruptors synergizing with JQ1.

The Golgi apparatus is increasingly recognized as a major hub for cellular signaling and is involved in numerous pathologies, including neurodegenerative diseases and cancer. The study of Golgi stress-induced signaling pathways relies on the selectivity of the available tool compounds of which currently only a few are known. To discover novel Golgi-fragmenting agents, transcriptomic profiles of cells treated with brefeldin A, golgicide A, or monensin were generated and compared with a database of gene expression profiles from cells treated with other bioactive small molecules. In parallel, a p

Эстрадиол содействует ремонту Myelin в Spinal Cord of Women Mice в CXCR4 Chemokine Receptor-Nependent.

В центральной нервной системе для взрослых (ЦНС) регенерация миелина происходит главным образом за счет дифференциации клеток олигодендроцитов потомства на зрелые олигодендроциты. У мужчин снижение уровня тестостерона ускоряет развитие множественных склерозов (МС), в то время как у женщин менопауза усугубляет инвалидность, связанную с НР. Ранее мы продемонстрировали, что функциональные яички и тестостерон необходимы для спонтанной ремимиилации фокус-лизолицитина (LPC), вызванной демиелином повреждения позвоночника мужских мышей. Ремонт миелина на основе тестостерона зависел от введения хемокин

A Decade of Specialized Acute Care: Clinical Impact of an Oncology-Hematology Emergency Room Compared to General Emergency Services.

BACKGROUND: The management of severe complications arising from newly diagnosed or existing cancer, as well as acute therapy-related side effects, is traditionally provided by General Emergen-cy Departments (GED). To address the specific needs of oncologic and hematologic patients, the University Hospital of Modena established a dedicated Oncology-Hematology Emergency Room (OHER) in 2001 as an integral part of the Oncology and Hematology Department. AIM AND METHODS: This study aims to analyze the clinical characteristics and outcomes of cancer patients admitted to OHER between 2009 and 2019,

Multiple Myeloma Outpatient Transplant Program in the Era of Novel Agents: State-of-the-Art.

Multiple myeloma (MM) is the most common indication for autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT), and outpatient models have been widely developed in this setting. Although numerous studies have demonstrated the safety and feasibility of outpatient ASCT, it is not a routine procedure. Stringent guidelines for patient selection and clinical management, including functional status, caregiver support, and psychological aspects, are essential to identify eligible patients. However, there is still no general agreement on these criteria. Quality of life data are limited and contradictory. There i

Azacitidine regulates DNA methylation of GADD45γ in myelodysplastic syndromes.

BACKGROUND: Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) is a heterogeneous clonal disease originated from hematopoietic stem cells. Epigenetic studies had demonstrated that DNA methylation and histone acetylation were abnormal in MDS. Azacitidine is an effective drug in the treatment of demethylation. METHODS: RT-PCR was performed to determine GADD45γ in 15 MDS clinical samples. Myelodysplastic syndrome cell lines SKM-1 and HS-5 were transfected with GADD45γ eukaryotic expression vector and/or GADD45γ shRNA interference plasmid, and treated with azacitidine. Proliferation and apoptosis were examined by CC

Laboratory Identification of Pseudohypercalcemia Induced by Hyperglobulinemia in Multiple Myeloma: A Case Report.

BackgroundPseudohypercalcemia is easily misdiagnosed in clinical practice, potentially leading to unnecessary interventions. Multiple myeloma (MM) presenting with concurrent hypergammaglobulinemia represents a rare etiology of pseudohypercalcemia, and there are few reports of systematic laboratory validation of this pathological entity.MethodsWe report a patient with MM who presented with markedly elevated serum total calcium on routine biochemical testing. The hypercalcemia persisted despite 1 month of calcitonin therapy administered at an external hospital. After admission, the clinical labo

Коллаген типа I, скрытый в повреждениях белой материи, препятствует восстановлению и функциональному восстановлению.

Повреждения белой материи вызваны церебральным кровопотоком, связанным с инсультом и демиелинизирующими заболеваниями, такими, как множественный склероз. Ремилинизация происходит спонтанно после травмы белой материи, но прогрессирующий множественный склероз и инсульт белой материи обычно характеризуются провалом ремиэлации. Однако механизмы, лежащие в основе слабого воспоминания о повреждениях, вызванных обезвоживанием и инсультом, остаются неясными. В текущем исследовании мы продемонстрировали, что коллагенные волокна, накопившиеся в демиелионированных повреждениях нескольких склерозных пацие

Acute hepatic encephalopathy presenting as cortical laminar necrosis: case report.

We report on a 55-year-old man with alcoholic liver cirrhosis who presented with status epilepticus. Laboratory analysis showed markedly elevated blood ammonia. Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed widespread cortical signal changes with restricted diffusion, involving both temporo-fronto-parietal cortex, while the perirolandic regions and occipital cortex were uniquely spared. A follow-up brain MRI demonstrated diffuse cortical atrophy with increased signals on T1-weighted images in both the basal ganglia and temporal lobe cortex, representing cortical laminar necrosis. We suggest th

Radiotherapy in COVID-19 patient affected by multiple myeloma: a case report.

In COVID-19 pandemic, cancer patients may be vulnerable for their immunological status and need of immunosuppressive anti-neoplastic treatments. Choosing the best treatment option in COVID-19 positive cancer patients is still a challenging issue. We report the case of a 62-year-old woman diagnosed with multiple myeloma and affected by COVID-19. After the diagnosis of multiple myeloma in January 2019, the patient underwent first line therapy followed by bone marrow autologous stem cell transplantation, achieving a complete response in September 2019. In March 2020, the patient showed intrathora

Relationship between Corticosteroid Dose and Physical Performance after HSCT: A Prospective Cohort Study.

ObjectivesThis study aimed to prospectively investigate the factors affecting the diminished ability of patients to stand up following hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT).MethodsFifty patients were enrolled in the study. Pre- and post-HSCT physical performance was assessed using the Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB). Post-HSCT physical performance decline was defined as a decrease of at least 1 point in the SPPB chair rise score at hospital discharge compared with the pre-HSCT score. Factors associated with this decline were analyzed using multiple logistic regression.Result

Фитогормонная абсциозная кислота усиливает ремиелионацию в мышиных моделях множественного склероза.

ВВЕДЕНИЕ: За последние несколько десятилетий в западных странах произошел внезапный рост числа случаев множественного склероза (МС). Однако нынешние методы лечения часто демонстрируют ограниченную эффективность у некоторых пациентов и связаны с неблагоприятными последствиями, что подчеркивает необходимость более безопасных и эффективных терапевтических подходов. Было отмечено, что важную роль в развитии НР играют экологические факторы, в частности привычки питания. В этом исследовании мы первыми исследуем потенциальное защитное воздействие гибридной кислоты (ABA) в MS. АБА, которая изобилие вс

Critically ill cancer patient's resuscitation: a Belgian/French societies' consensus conference.

To respond to the legitimate questions raised by the application of invasive methods of monitoring and life-support techniques in cancer patients admitted in the ICU, the European Lung Cancer Working Party and the Groupe de Recherche Respiratoire en Réanimation Onco-Hématologique, set up a consensus conference. The methodology involved a systematic literature review, experts' opinion and a final consensus conference about nine predefined questions1. Which triage criteria, in terms of complications and considering the underlying neoplastic disease and possible therapeutic limitations, should be

Paclitaxel causes degeneration of both central and peripheral axon branches of dorsal root ganglia in mice.

BackgroundPeripheral neuropathy is a common and dose-limiting side effect of many cancer chemotherapies. The taxane agents, including paclitaxel (Taxol(®)), are effective chemotherapeutic drugs but cause degeneration of predominantly large myelinated afferent sensory fibers of the peripheral nervous system in humans and animal models. Dorsal root ganglia (DRG) neurons are sensory neurons that have unipolar axons each with two branches: peripheral and central. While taxane agents induce degeneration of peripheral axons, whether they also cause degeneration of central nervous system axons is not

Management of Severe Acute Pancreatitis.

Sepsis‑induced abnormalities in brain function or sepsis‑associated encephalopathy (SAE) can manifest as cognitive dysfunction and other neuropsychiatric symptoms; however, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. The aim of the present study was to elucidate the possible effects and mechanism of capsaicin, a transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) agonist, on the pathological features of SAE. A model of SAE in C57BL/6 mice was generated using cecal ligation and puncture (CLP). Capsaicin (1 mg/kg) was injected subcutaneously before surgery. Cognitive function in mice was evaluated us
