Upregulation of long non-coding RNA myocardial infarction-associated transcription is correlated with coronary artery stenosis and elevated inflammation in patients with coronary atherosclerotic heart disease.

Coronary atherosclerotic heart disease (CAD) is a chronic disease caused by multiple risk factors. Aberrant expression of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) has been regarded as an independent risk factor of CAD. This study evaluated lncRNA myocardial infarction-associated transcription (MIAT) expression in CAD patients and its clinical significance. Totally, 155 CAD patients and 76 non-CAD controls were enrolled. MIAT expression was detected using reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction. The clinical diagnostic significance of MIAT was evaluated by plotting the receiver opera

Update on Classic and Novel Approaches in Metastatic Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Treatment: A Comprehensive Review.

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) accounts for almost 15% of all diagnosed breast cancers and often presents high rates of relapses and metastases, with generally poor prognosis despite multiple lines of treatment. Immunotherapy has radically changed the approach of clinicians towards TNBC in the last two to three years, even if targeted and specific therapeutic options are still missing; this unmet need is further justified by the extreme molecular and clinical heterogeneity of this subtype of breast cancer and by the weak response to both single-agent and combined therapies. In March 2023

Circular RNA as a Novel Biomarker for Diagnosis and Prognosis and Potential Therapeutic Targets in Multiple Myeloma.

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a novel type of covalently closed RNAs involved in several physiological and pathological processes. They display tissue-specific expression and are constant, abundant, and highly conserved, making them perfect markers for diagnosis and prognosis. Several studies have proposed that circRNAs are also differentially produced in malignancies where they have oncogenic effects. Furthermore, circRNAs affecting microRNAs modify the expression profile of several transcription factors which play essential roles in tumors. CircRNAs within the hematopoietic compartment were i

Effects of Carbon Nanomaterials and Aloe vera on Melanomas-Where Are We? Recent Updates.

Melanoma is an aggressive skin cancer that affects approximately 140,000 people worldwide each year, with a high fatality rate. Available treatment modalities show limited efficacy in more severe cases. Hence, the search for new treatment modalities, including immunotherapies, for curing, mitigating, and/or preventing cancer is important and urgently needed. Carbon nanoparticles associated with some plant materials, such as Aloe vera, have shown appealing antineoplastic activity, derived mainly from the compounds aloin, aloe-emodin, barbaloin acemannan, and octapeptide, thus representing new p

Advanced multifunctional thermo- and electro-stimulative hydrogels for bone regeneration.

Bone defects caused by trauma, infection, tumors, osteoporosis, and diabetes disrupt skeletal integrity and impair regeneration. The healing process involves inflammatory hematoma formation, callus development, and remodeling, coordinated by diverse cells and signaling pathways. Conventional grafts and inorganic implants are limited by donor scarcity, immune rejection, and low bioactivity, necessitating more effective repair strategies. Recently, multifunctional smart hydrogels have emerged as a frontier in bone regeneration due to their biocompatibility, tunable structure, and ability to inte

A REVIEW OF SALIVARY BIOMARKERS OF PERIODONTAL DISEASE.

BackgroundPeriodontal disease is a complex multifactorial disease resulting from the interplay amongst microbiota, host immune response (influenced by genetic make-up) and lifestyle factors. The chronic inflammatory nature of the disease results in the destruction of the component of the periodontium. The process of the disease is associated with inflammation, collagen degradation and, bone loss which correlate with clinical features of periodontal disease. The clinical diagnosis of periodontal disease entails clinical examination involving the evaluation of probing depth, bleeding on probing,

HDAC6-an Emerging Target Against Chronic Myeloid Leukemia?

Imatinib became the standard treatment for chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) about 20 years ago, which was a major breakthrough in stabilizing the pathology and improving the quality of life of patients. However, the emergence of resistance to imatinib and other tyrosine kinase inhibitors leads researchers to characterize new therapeutic targets. Several studies have highlighted the role of histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) in various pathologies, including cancer. This protein effectively intervenes in cellular activities by its primarily cytoplasmic localization. In this review, we will discuss the

Review and meta-analysis of the genetic Minimal Cut Set approach for gene essentiality prediction in cancer metabolism.

Cancer metabolism is a marvellously complex topic, in part, due to the reprogramming of its pathways to self-sustain the malignant phenotype in the disease, to the detriment of its healthy counterpart. Understanding these adjustments can provide novel targeted therapies that could disrupt and impair proliferation of cancerous cells. For this very purpose, genome-scale metabolic models (GEMs) have been developed, with Human1 being the most recent reconstruction of the human metabolism. Based on GEMs, we introduced the genetic Minimal Cut Set (gMCS) approach, an uncontextualized methodology that

Outcomes of Double-Hit and Single High-Risk Cytogenetic Newly Diagnosed Myeloma in Transplant-Eligible Patients.

INTRODUCTION: High-risk multiple myeloma (HRMM) is primarily defined by adverse cytogenetic abnormalities that are associated with inferior outcomes despite contemporary treatment with novel induction agents and autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT). While the accumulation of high-risk lesions has been proposed to further stratify prognosis, the relative impact of single-hit versus double-hit HRMM on post-transplant outcomes in real-world clinical practice remains incompletely characterized. METHODS: We conducted a multicenter retrospective cohort study of transplant-eligible adults wit

Update on the role of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in multiple myeloma.

Autologous stem cell transplantation is considered the standard of care for multiple myeloma patients aged < 65 years with no relevant comorbidities. The addition of drugs acting both on bone marrow microenvironment and on neoplastic plasma cells has significantly increased the proportion of patients achieving a complete remission after induction therapy, and these results are mantained after high-dose melphalan, leading to a prolonged disease control. Studies are being carried out in order to evaluate whether short term consolidation or long-term maintenance therapy can result into disease er
