Study of a novel Ca/P/S-based cement implanted in the osteoporotic goat spine and its clinical application in preventing adjacent vertebral fractures.

Osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF) has been increasing over the last decades. In addition to primary OVCF, the adjacent vertebral fracture (AVF) is a frequent serious complication in OVCF patients receiving percutaneous vertebroplasty or kyphoplasty, resulting in poor long-term outcome and recurrent symptoms. The aim of the present study is to investigate the bone regeneration behavior of a novel Ca/P/S-based resorbable cement (Ezechbone® Cement CBC-400) implanted into surgically created vertebral defects of ovariectomized (OVX) goats. Furthermore, the present study provides a

Mechanism and clinical progression of solid tumors bone marrow metastasis.

The rich blood supply of the bone marrow provides favorable conditions for tumor cell proliferation and growth. In the disease's early stages, circulating tumor cells can escape to the bone marrow and form imperceptible micro metastases. These tumor cells may be reactivated to regain the ability to grow aggressively and eventually develop into visible metastases. Symptomatic bone marrow metastases with abnormal hematopoiesis solid tumor metastases are rare and have poor prognoses. Treatment options are carefully chosen because of the suppression of bone marrow function. In this review, we summ

Mechanism of Action of Bortezomib and the New Proteasome Inhibitors on Myeloma Cells and the Bone Microenvironment: Impact on Myeloma-Induced Alterations of Bone Remodeling.

Multiple myeloma (MM) is characterized by a high capacity to induce alterations in the bone remodeling process. The increase in osteoclastogenesis and the suppression of osteoblast formation are both involved in the pathophysiology of the bone lesions in MM. The proteasome inhibitor (PI) bortezomib is the first drug designed and approved for the treatment of MM patients by targeting the proteasome. However, recently novel PIs have been developed to overcome bortezomib resistance. Interestingly, several preclinical data indicate that the proteasome complex is involved in both osteoclast and ost

In recent years, the use of high-throughput omics to explore physiological and pathological biomarkers related to bone metabolism has gained popularity. In this review, we first briefly review the technical approaches of proteomics. Additionally, we summarize the relevant literature in the last decade to provide a comprehensive overview of advances in human proteomics related to osteoporosis. We describe the specific roles of various proteins related to human bone metabolism,

Emergence of Cancer-Associated Fibroblasts as an Indispensable Cellular Player in Bone Metastasis Process.

Bone metastasis is frequently complicated in patients with advanced solid cancers such as breast, prostate and lung cancers, and impairs patients' quality of life and prognosis. At the first step of bone metastasis, cancer cells adhere to the endothelium in bone marrow and survive in a dormant state by utilizing hematopoietic niches present therein. Once a dormant stage is disturbed, cancer cells grow through the interaction with various bone marrow resident cells, particularly osteoclasts and osteoblasts. Consequently, osteoclast activation is a hallmark of bone metastasis. As a consequence,

Loss of EGFR activity in skeletal stem/progenitor cells is associated with impaired fracture healing in aged mice.

The cellular and molecular events responsible for fracture healing becoming delayed with aging remain unclear. Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signaling has been reported to play a critical role in bone regeneration. However, knowledge of its specific function in skeletal stem cells during aging-induced fracture delayed union remains scant. In the present study, we first demonstrated that EGFR activity in skeletal stem/progenitor cells decreased as mice aged and thus resulted in delayed fracture healing. To further investigate whether the EGFR signaling can be targeted as a potential t

Insights into the Impact of Hesitancy on Cancer Care and COVID-19.

World Health Organization findings indicate that the COVID-19 pandemic adversely affected cancer diagnosis and management. The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted the optimal management of outpatient appointments, scheduled treatments, and hospitalizations for cancer patients because of hesitancy among patients and health-care providers. Travel restrictions and other factors likely affected medical, surgical, and radiation treatments during the COVID-19 pandemic. Cancer patients were more likely to be affected by severe illness and complications if they contracted COVID-19. A compromised immune system

Growth factor independence 1 expression in myeloma cells enhances their growth, survival, and osteoclastogenesis.

BACKGROUND: In spite of major advances in treatment, multiple myeloma (MM) is currently an incurable malignancy due to the emergence of drug-resistant clones. We previously showed that MM cells upregulate the transcriptional repressor, growth factor independence 1 (Gfi1), in bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) that induces prolonged inhibition of osteoblast differentiation. However, the role of Gfi1 in MM cells is unknown. METHODS: Human primary CD138+ and BMSC were purified from normal donors and MM patients' bone marrow aspirates. Gfi1 knockdown and overexpressing cells were generated by lent

Radiomics in spinal research: a narrative review.

Radiomics has emerged as a transformative tool in medical imaging, offering the ability to extract complex quantitative features that are generally indiscernible to the human eye. These radiomic features can be interrogated non-invasively on medical imaging. Importantly, in contrast to traditional diagnostic methods reliant on a single, often scalar, measure, radiomics features can form a high-dimensional data space from imaging data suitable for machine learning. Within the framework of artificial intelligence, radiomic features can be harnessed for differentiating healthy from pathological t

Chemotherapy-induced neuropathies-a growing problem for patients and health care providers.

IntroductionChemotherapy-induced neuropathies are one of the most common side effects of cancer treatment, surpassing bone marrow suppression and kidney dysfunction. Chemotherapy effects on the nervous system vary between different classes of drugs and depend on specific chemical and physical properties of the drug used. The three most neurotoxic classes of anti-cancer drugs are: platinum-based drugs, taxanes, and thalidomide and its analogs; other, less neurotoxic but also commonly used drugs are: bortezomib, ixabepilone, and vinca alkaloids.MethodsHere, in this paper, based on our experience

Whole-body magnetic resonance imaging (WBMRI) versus whole-body computed tomography (WBCT) for myeloma imaging and staging.

Myeloma-associated bone disease (MBD) develops in about 80-90% of patients and severely affects their quality of life, as it accounts for the majority of mortality and morbidity. Imaging in multiple myeloma (MM) and MBD is of utmost importance in order to detect bone and bone marrow lesions as well as extraosseous soft-tissue masses and complications before the initiation of treatment. It is required for determination of the stage of disease and aids in the assessment of treatment response. Whole-body low-dose computed tomography (WBLDCT) is the key modality to establish the initial diagnosis

MSC-EV therapy for bone/cartilage diseases.

Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) have been utilized in cell therapy for various diseases. Recent studies have demonstrated that extracellular vesicles (EVs) released by MSCs play an important role in their therapeutic activities. EVs contain a variety of bioactive molecules such as proteins, messenger RNAs (mRNAs), and micro RNAs (miRNAs) and modify the function of the recipient cells by transferring these molecules. Despite the promising potential of EV therapy as a substitute for MSC therapy, there are challenges that need to be addressed for the clinical success of EV therapy. EV quality ha

Monocyte Involvement in the Pathogenesis of Myeloproliferative Neoplasms.

Classical BCR-ABL-negative myeloproliferative neoplasms are a heterogeneous group of hematologic malignancies, including essential thrombocythemia, polycythemia vera, and primary myelofibrosis. Monocytes, immune cells derived from hematopoietic stem cells, exhibit significant heterogeneity and contribute to immune regulation through cytokine secretion and differentiation into dendritic cells and macrophages. Aberrant monocytes are associated with the prognosis of MPNs, particularly PMF. Furthermore, these altered monocytes play a critical role in the pathogenesis and progression of MPNs. This

Functional genomics for breast cancer drug target discovery.

Breast cancer is a heterogeneous disease that develops through a multistep process via the accumulation of genetic/epigenetic alterations in various cancer-related genes. Current treatment options for breast cancer patients include surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy including conventional cytotoxic and molecular-targeted anticancer drugs for each intrinsic subtype, such as endocrine therapy and antihuman epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) therapy. However, these therapies often fail to prevent recurrence and metastasis due to resistance. Overall, understanding the molecular mechani

The potential of mesenchymal stem cells in the management of radiation enteropathy.

Although radiotherapy is effective in managing abdominal and pelvic malignant tumors, radiation enteropathy is still unavoidable. This disease severely affects the quality of life of cancer patients due to some refractory lesions, such as intestinal ischemia, mucositis, ulcer, necrosis or even perforation. Current drugs or prevailing therapies are committed to alleviating the symptoms induced by above lesions. But the efficacies achieved by these interventions are still not satisfactory, because the milieus for tissue regeneration are not distinctly improved. In recent years, regenerative ther
