Physical activity programming and counseling preferences among cancer survivors: a systematic review.

BackgroundPhysical activity (PA) participation and adherence among cancer survivors is low, despite research indicating numerous physical, psychological and emotional health benefits of exercise. Tailoring exercise programs specific to the PA preferences in cancer survivors has merit for increasing PA participation and adherence to accrue these benefits. This systematic review identifies and differentiates PA programming and counseling preferences of adult cancer survivors across various cancer survivor groups.MethodsPubMed, SPORTDiscus, Scopus, PsycINFO, EMBASE, Web of Science and CINAHL were

Human isoprenoid synthase enzymes as therapeutic targets.

In the human body, the complex biochemical network known as the mevalonate pathway is responsible for the biosynthesis of all isoprenoids, which consists of a vast array of metabolites that are vital for proper cellular functions. Two key isoprenoids, farnesyl pyrophosphate (FPP) and geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate (GGPP) are responsible for the post-translational prenylation of small GTP-binding proteins, and serve as the biosynthetic precursors to numerous other biomolecules. The down-stream metabolite of FPP and GGPP is squalene, the precursor to steroids, bile acids, lipoproteins, and vitamin

Personalized Lifestyle Interventions for Prevention and Treatment of Obesity-Related Cancers: A Call to Action.

The increasing global burden of cancer necessitates innovative approaches to prevention and treatment. Lifestyle factors such as diet, physical activity, and smoking significantly contribute to cancer. At the same time, current guidelines are based on a one-size-fits-all approach, which limits their effectiveness across diverse populations. Obesity is a well-documented risk factor for cancer, directly affecting 13 types of cancer. The complex interplay of genetic, metabolic, hormonal, and environmental factors in obesity's etiology highlights the need for more tailored approaches to obesity-re

Impact of Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplant on Safety and Outcomes of Chimeric Antigen Receptor T Cell (CAR-T) Therapy in Patients with Multiple Myeloma (MM).

Background: Allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT) has seen limited use in treating multiple myeloma (MM), despite its potential to offer long-term survival or even cure through the graft-versus-myeloma effect. Its limited application is largely due to concerns over serious complications like infections and graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). The possibility of GVHD exacerbation when CAR-T cells are administered to patients previously treated with allo-SCT remains a topic of concern. Ciltacabtagene autoleucel (Cilta-cel) and idecabtagene vicleucel (Ide-cel) are CAR-T therapies that have

Relationship between sodium and diffusion MRI metrics in multiple sclerosis.

Sodium MRI can measure in vivo sodium concentrations in people with multiple sclerosis, but the extent to which these alterations reflect metabolic dysfunction in the absence of tissue damage or neuroaxonal loss remains uncertain. Increases in total sodium concentration and extracellular sodium concentration are believed to be indicative of tissue disruption and extracellular space expansion. Conversely, increase in intracellular sodium concentration may represent early and transient responses to neuronal insult, preceding overt tissue damage. Here, we explored the relationship between total s
