Potential Protective Role Exerted by Secoiridoids from Olea europaea L. in Cancer, Cardiovascular, Neurodegenerative, Aging-Related, and Immunoinflammatory Diseases.

Iridoids, which have beneficial health properties, include a wide group of cyclopentane [c] pyran monoterpenoids present in plants and insects. The cleavage of the cyclopentane ring leads to secoiridoids. Mainly, secoiridoids have shown a variety of pharmacological effects including anti-diabetic, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, immunosuppressive, neuroprotective, anti-cancer, and anti-obesity, which increase the interest of studying these types of bioactive compounds in depth. Secoiridoids are thoroughly distributed in several families of plants such as Oleaceae, Valerianaceae, Gentianaceae a

Craniovertebral Junction Instability after Oncological Resection: A Narrative Review.

The craniovertebral junction (CVJ) is a complex transition area between the skull and cervical spine. Pathologies such as chordoma, chondrosarcoma and aneurysmal bone cysts may be encountered in this anatomical area and may predispose individuals to joint instability. An adequate clinical and radiological assessment is mandatory to predict any postoperative instability and the need for fixation. There is no common consensus on the need for, timing and setting of craniovertebral fixation techniques after a craniovertebral oncological surgery. The aim of the present review is to summarize the an

Coexistence of Autoantibodies against the Golgi Complex and Ro52 Antigen in a Patient with Nonspecific Interstitial Pneumonia.

Nonspecific interstitial pneumonia (NSIP) is often associated with connective tissue diseases (CTD). The diagnosis of NSIP was confirmed in a 63-year-old man by high-resolution computed tomography and an open lung biopsy. Anti-Golgi complex autoantibodies (AGA) and anti-Ro52 antibodies were simultaneously detected at high concentrations. Autoantibodies to aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases (ARS) were negative. The patient was treated with corticosteroids for six months. During the seven-year follow-up, NSIP had a slow progression and patient had not developed the clinical features of CTD. The present

Application of GPRC5D Targeting Therapy in Relapsed Refractory Multiple Myeloma.

BackgroundAs a rapidly developing therapeutic method, targeted therapy plays an important role in the treatment of multiple myeloma. In recent years, mature B cell antigen-targeting therapy has brought new hope for patients with refractory/relapsed disease. While an increasing number of patients with relapse are exposed to this type of drug, changing the therapeutic target may be an effective strategy for patients with relapse/refractory multiple myeloma.ObjectivesThe expression of G protein-coupled receptor, class C Group 5 member D (GPRC5D), on the surface of myeloma tumor cells makes it a p

Частота, характеристики и иммунологические композиции атаксии в антиNMDAR, связанной с антителным энцефалитом.

ВВЕДЕНИЕ: Очень редко взрослый антителный энцефалит NMDAR (NMDAR-E) приводит к стойкой атрофии мозга и атаксии. В педиатрии НМДАР-Е широко распространена трансгенитальная атаксия мозга. Атаксия церебельного типа может быть связана с mielin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG), аквапорин-4 (AQP-4), членом семьи 11 (KLHL11), похожим на келч, и субъектом рецептора 2 (GluK2) глютаматного кайната, все из которых могут быть совместно окуны в NMDAR-E. Здесь мы стремились изучить частоту, долгосрочные результаты и иммунологические сопутствующие атаксии в НМДАР-Е.МЕТОДЫ: В ходе этого наблюдения пациенты

Why do patients with cancer die?

Cancer is a major cause of global mortality, both in affluent countries and increasingly in developing nations. Many patients with cancer experience reduced life expectancy and have metastatic disease at the time of death. However, the more precise causes of mortality and patient deterioration before death remain poorly understood. This scarcity of information, particularly the lack of mechanistic insights, presents a challenge for the development of novel treatment strategies to improve the quality of, and potentially extend, life for patients with late-stage cancer. In addition, earlier depl

The Therapeutic Potential of Secreted Factors from Dental Pulp Stem Cells for Various Diseases.

An alternative source of mesenchymal stem cells has recently been discovered: dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs), including deciduous teeth, which can thus comprise potential tools for regenerative medicine. DPSCs derive from the neural crest and are normally implicated in dentin homeostasis. The clinical application of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) involving DPSCs contains various limitations, such as high cost, low safety, and cell handling issues, as well as invasive sample collection procedures. Although MSCs implantation offers favorable outcomes on specific diseases, implanted MSCs cannot su

Целевое воздействие на ось MARCH5-MFN2 для усиления фузии митохондрий и чувствительности клеток множественной миеломы к венетоклаксу.

ОБЗОР: Накопленные данные указывают на то, что события физиологического деления и слияния митохондрий нарушены в раке из-за нарушения функции их ключевых регуляторов. В данном исследовании мы изучали функциональную роль E3-убиквитин-лигазы Мембранный ассоциированный Ринг-Ч-Тип Фингер 5 (MARCH5) в регуляции роста клеток, метаболической переработки и устойчивости к лекарствам в мультиплексной миеломе (ММ) через отрицательную регуляцию драйвера слияния митохондрий митофузина 2 (MFN2). МЕТОДЫ: Вiability клеток и апоптоз оценивались в линиях клеток ММ или в кокультуре с стромальными клетками с исп

Targeting of mitochondrial fission through natural flavanones elicits anti-myeloma activity.

BackgroundMitochondrial alterations, often dependent on unbalanced mitochondrial dynamics, feature in the pathobiology of human cancers, including multiple myeloma (MM). Flavanones are natural flavonoids endowed with mitochondrial targeting activities. Herein, we investigated the capability of Hesperetin (Hes) and Naringenin (Nar), two aglycones of Hesperidin and Naringin flavanone glycosides, to selectively target Drp1, a pivotal regulator of mitochondrial dynamics, prompting anti-MM activity.MethodsMolecular docking analyses were performed on the crystallographic structure of Dynamin-1-like

Systemic Consequences of Inflammatory Bowel Disease Beyond Immune-Mediated Manifestations.

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) management traditionally focuses on intestinal inflammation, yet extraintestinal manifestations can substantially impair patient quality of life. In this perspective, we emphasize the broad systemic impact of IBD-from highly prevalent conditions such as anemia, metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease, or fatigue to rare but severe complications like interstitial lung disease and drug-induced glomerulonephritis. We review underlying mechanisms linking gut inflammation to distant organs, including immune dysregulation, microbial translocation, an

A review on Gaucher disease: therapeutic potential of β-glucocerebrosidase-targeted mRNA/saRNA approach.

Gaucher disease (GD), a rare hereditary lysosomal storage disorder, occurs due to a deficiency in the enzyme β-glucocerebrosidase (GCase). This deficiency leads to the buildup of substrate glucosylceramide (GlcCer) in macrophages, eventually resulting in various complications. Among its three types, GD2 is particularly severe with neurological involvements. Current treatments, such as enzyme replacement therapy (ERT), are not effective for GD2 and GD3 due to their inability to cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB). Other treatment approaches, such as gene or chaperone therapies are still in expe

Chimeric antigen receptor modified T-cells for cancer treatment.

T cells engineered with the chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) are rapidly emerging as an important immunotherapy for hematologic malignancies. The anti-cluster of differentiation (CD)19 CAR-T cell therapy has been remarkably successful against refractory/relapsed acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), and a complete remission rate as high as 90% was observed, in both children and adults. Although the achievement of clinical efficacy using CAR-T cell therapy for solid tumors has encountered several obstacles that were associated with the multiple mechanisms contributing to an immunosuppressive micro

Common Non-Rheumatic Medical Conditions Mimicking Fibromyalgia: A Simple Framework for Differential Diagnosis.

Fibromyalgia (FM) is a chronic non-inflammatory disorder mainly characterized by widespread musculoskeletal pain, fatigue, sleep disturbances, and a constellation of other symptoms. For this reason, delineating a clear distinction between pure FM and FM-like picture attributable to other common diseases can be extremely challenging. Physicians must identify the most significant confounders in individual patients and implement an appropriate diagnostic workflow, carefully choosing a minimal (but sufficient) set of tests to be used for identifying the most plausible diseases in the specific case

T-Cell Redirecting Therapies in Multiple Myeloma: Pathogenesis and Management of Toxicities Beyond CRS and ICANS.

The introduction of chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cell and bispecific antibody (BsAb) therapies has revolutionized multiple myeloma (MM) treatment, offering exceptional efficacy, and culminating in recent regulatory approval. However, these therapies have brought unique toxicity challenges, manifesting not only with the well-established cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS), but also with the emergence of other common and equally distinctive toxicities, including cytopenias, hypogammaglobulinemia, infections, and the rare but l
