The leptomeninges as a critical organ for normal CNS development and function: First patient and public involved systematic review of arachnoiditis (chronic meningitis).

BACKGROUND & IMPORTANCE: This patient and public-involved systematic review originally focused on arachnoiditis, a supposedly rare "iatrogenic chronic meningitis" causing permanent neurologic damage and intractable pain. We sought to prove disease existence, causation, symptoms, and inform future directions. After 63 terms for the same pathology were found, the study was renamed Diseases of the Leptomeninges (DLMs). We present results that nullify traditional clinical thinking about DLMs, answer study questions, and create a unified path forward. METHODS: The prospective PRISMA protocol is pu

Targeting Bone Metastases in Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer.

Skeletal involvement in metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) is common and results in significant morbidity and mortality. The interaction of prostate cancer with the bone microenvironment contributes to progression of cancer in the bone leading to skeletal-related events (SREs). Studies aimed at targeting the bone have been carried out over the recent years. Bisphosphonates are synthetic pyrophosphate analogs first investigated for their role in SRE prevention with zoledronic acid as the main bisphosphonate that is approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for retardati

Beyond DNA Damage: Exploring the Immunomodulatory Effects of Cyclophosphamide in Multiple Myeloma.

The alkylating agent cyclophosphamide has been used in the treatment of multiple myeloma for over 60 years. At low doses, cyclophosphamide also has significant immunomodulatory activity, which can be used to modify the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment in order to augment responses to existing therapies. Immune-mediated therapies are becoming more widespread in modern approaches to myeloma treatment. In this review, we discuss the effects cyclophosphamide has on the immune system, and how it can be used synergistically with other treatment modalities including the immunomodulatory agent

Epoetin Theta with a New Dosing Schedule in Anaemic Cancer Patients Receiving Nonplatinum-Based Chemotherapy: A Randomised Controlled Trial.

INTRODUCTION: Recombinant human erythropoietin (r-HuEPO) is used to treat symptomatic anaemia due to chemotherapy. A new r-HuEPO, Epoetin theta (Eporatio®), was investigated and compared to placebo in a randomised, double-blind clinical trial in adult cancer patients receiving nonplatinum-based chemotherapy. The primary efficacy endpoint was the responder rate (complete haemoglobin (Hb) response, i.e., Hb increase ≥2 g/dl) without the benefit of a transfusion within the previous 4 weeks. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: 186 patients were randomised to s.c. treatment for 12 weeks with either Epoeti

Biomaterials from the sea: Future building blocks for biomedical applications.

Marine resources have tremendous potential for developing high-value biomaterials. The last decade has seen an increasing number of biomaterials that originate from marine organisms. This field is rapidly evolving. Marine biomaterials experience several periods of discovery and development ranging from coralline bone graft to polysaccharide-based biomaterials. The latter are represented by chitin and chitosan, marine-derived collagen, and composites of different organisms of marine origin. The diversity of marine natural products, their properties and applications are discussed thoroughly in t

Latest advances in extracellular vesicles: from bench to bedside.

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are small membraned vesicles and approximately 50-150 nm in diameter. Almost all of the type of cells releases the EVs and circulates in the body fluids. EVs contain multiple functional components, such as mRNAs, microRNAs (miRNAs), DNAs, and proteins, which can be transferred to the recipient cells, resulting in phenotypic changes. Recently, EV research has focused on their potential as a drug delivery vehicle and in targeted therapy against specific molecules. Moreover, some surface proteins are specific to particular diseases, and therefore, EVs also have promis

Drug Conjugates for Targeting Eph Receptors in Glioblastoma.

Glioblastoma (GBM) is a complex and heterogeneous tumor that warrants a comprehensive therapeutic approach for treatment. Tumor-associated antigens offer an opportunity to selectively target various components of the GBM microenvironment while sparing the normal cells within the central nervous system. In this study, we conjugated a multivalent vector protein, QUAD 3.0, that can target four receptors: EphA3, EphA2, EphB2, and also IL-13RA2, spanning virtually 100% of the GBM microenvironment, to doxorubicin derivatives. The conjugates effectively bound to all four receptors, although to varyin

KIAA1429-mediated M6A methylation inhibits osteoclast differentiation via stabilizing Lrp4 mRNA and protects against osteoporosis.

N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is a novel epigenetic modification that has been reported to be involved in the progression of osteoporosis (OP), providing new insights into the pathogenesis of OP. The methyltransferases KIAA1429 [also known as virus-like m6A methyltransferase-associated protein (VIRMA)] participates in various essential biological processes by regulating target gene expression levels. However, the function of KIAA1429-mediated m6A modification in OP progression remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the biological roles and potential underlying mechanisms of KIAA1429 in OP

Gene and cell therapy of human genetic diseases: Recent advances and future directions.

Disruptions in normal development and the emergence of health conditions often result from the malfunction of vital genes in the human body. Decades of scientific research have focused on techniques to modify or substitute defective genes with healthy alternatives, marking a new era in disease treatment, prevention and cure. Recent strides in science and technology have reshaped our understanding of disorders, medication development and treatment recommendations, with human gene and cell therapy at the forefront of this transformative shift. Its primary objective is the modification of genes o

Acupuncture for cancer-induced bone pain?

Bone pain is the most common type of pain in cancer. Bony metastases are common in advanced cancers, particularly in multiple myeloma, breast, prostate or lung cancer. Current pain-relieving strategies include the use of opioid-based analgesia, bisphosphonates and radiotherapy. Although patients experience some pain relief, these interventions may produce unacceptable side-effects which inevitably affect the quality of life. Acupuncture may represent a potentially valuable adjunct to existing strategies for pain relief and it is known to be relatively free of harmful side-effects. Although acu

Мак-1 регулирует иммуноусилительное подавление конкретной стадии болезни через нитриковый путь в аутоиммунном заболевании.

Интегрин Мак-1 играет важнейшую роль в развитии множественного склероза (MS); однако лежащий в его основе механизм не в полной мере изучен. Здесь мы разработали мышь с миелоидной мышью Мак-1-дефицит. Используя экспериментальную аутоиммунную энцефаломиэлит (EAE) модель мыши MS, мы сообщаем, что Мак-1 на миелиоидных клетках является ключом к развитию болезней. Наши данные показывают, что миелиоидный Мак-1 значительно повышает интенсивность EAE и затрудняет регрессию заболеваний. Потеря Mac-1 увеличивает количество клеток Gr-1+ в периферийных тканях и CNS и предпочтительно ускоряет переход моноци

The development of smart nanoparticles for precision medicine in anticancer drug delivery and controlled release has the potential to revolutionize cancer treatment. This progress is driven by expanding body of preclinical and early clinical studies on anticancer nanoparticles. Despite these advancements, a critical challenge remains achieving a selective and efficient tumor accumulation, along with effective extravasation and deep tissue penetration of nanoparticles into the tumor parenchyma. Affinity targeting strategies using ligands such as homing peptides and antibodies leverage molecular

Tumor Microenvironment Onmyoji: Cytokines with Dual Protumor and Antitumor Roles.

Cytokines are essential components of the tumor microenvironment (TME) and play crucial roles in tumor initiation and progression. As key mediators of interactions between immune cells and tumor cells within the TME, many cytokines exhibit both protumor and antitumor properties. This complex duality, reminiscent of the balance philosophy pursued by "Onmyoji" in traditional Eastern philosophy, which involves observing and regulating opposing forces to achieve harmony, poses marked challenges in translating cytokine therapies from animal studies to clinical applications. More than 20 key cytokin

Множественный склероз (MS) представляет собой хроническое воспалительное и нейродегенеративное аутоиммунное расстройство центральной нервной системы, характеризующееся демиэлированием и нейродегенерацией. Традиционно рассматриваемая как болезнь с Т-клетоклетками, ключевая роль В-лимфоцитов в его патогенезе через различные механизмы, способствующие воспалению и автоматической активности, получает все большее признание. Риск долгосрочной инвалидности у пациентов с НР может быть снижен за счет раннего начала лечения, в частности с помощью высокоэффективной терапии. Цель этого обзора состоит в том

Immunomodulatory and antitumor effects of type I interferons and their application in cancer therapy.

During the last decades, the pleiotropic antitumor functions exerted by type I interferons (IFNs) have become universally acknowledged, especially their role in mediating interactions between the tumor and the immune system. Indeed, type I IFNs are now appreciated as a critical component of dendritic cell (DC) driven T cell responses to cancer. Here we focus on IFN-α and IFN-β, and their antitumor effects, impact on immune responses and their use as therapeutic agents. IFN-α/β share many properties, including activation of the JAK-STAT signaling pathway and induction of a variety of cellular p

Aberrant NSUN2-mediated m5C modification of exosomal LncRNA MALAT1 induced RANKL-mediated bone destruction in multiple myeloma.

The impact of exosome-mediated crosstalk between multiple myeloma (MM) cells and osteoclasts (OCs) on bone lesions remains to be investigated. Here, we identified NSUN2 and YBX1-mediated m5C modifications upregulated LncRNA MALAT1 expression in MM cells, which could be transported to OCs via exosomes and promote bone lesions. Methodologically, RNA-seq was carried out to detect the cargoes of exosomes. TRAP staining and WB were used to evaluate osteoclastogenesis in vitro. Micro-CT and bone histomorphometric analyses were performed to identify bone destruction in vivo. RNA pull-down, RIP, MeRIP

Recent Trends in anti-tumor mechanisms and molecular targets of celastrol.

Celastrol, a compound derived from traditional Chinese medicine, has therapeutic effects and has been used to treat inflammation-related diseases, cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and neurodegenerative diseases. However, current reviews lack a comprehensive and systematic summary of the anti-tumor mechanisms and molecular targets of celastrol. For this reason, this paper reviews the anticancer properties of celastrol and the molecular mechanisms underlying its anticancer effects. This paper primarily focuses on the mechanism of action of celastrol in terms of inhibition of cell proliferation a
