Chronic stress and myeloid immunosuppression in cancer: A neuroimmune link to behavioral dysfunction.

Cancer progression is profoundly influenced by the complex interplay between the tumor microenvironment (TME), the immune system, and the patient's psychological state. This review delineates a critical pathway linking chronic stress to worsened cancer outcomes through inflammatory factors, anti-tumor immune suppression, and the induction of behavioral comorbidities. We postulate that sustained stress hormone signaling via the sympathetic nervous system and hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis activation orchestrates a systemic immunosuppressive cascade. A central mechanism is the stress-induce

Crosstalk between Circadian Rhythm Dysregulation and Tumorigenesis, Tumor Metabolism and Tumor Immune Response.

Circadian rhythm is a self-regulating 24-hour system that synchronizes with the day and night cycle in organisms. The regulation of this system is controlled by clock genes, which function to harmoniously express molecular levels that facilitate the orderly coordination of various cellular processes, such as sleep, metabolism, endocrine function, cell proliferation and immunity. The root cause of tumorigenesis is that the body loses its normal regulation of cell growth at the genetic level. Long-term disruptions in circadian rhythms caused by factors such as shift work, jet lag, and unstable s

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

Real-world use of pegylated erythropoietin in CKD-related anemia: an Indian modified Delphi consensus.

Anemia is a common and clinically significant complication of chronic kidney disease (CKD), contributing to impaired quality of life, increased cardiovascular risk, and higher mortality. Although erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs) remain the cornerstone of anemia management, conventional short- and intermediate-acting ESAs are associated with frequent dosing requirements, treatment burden, and variability in haemoglobin (Hb) control. Methoxy polyethylene glycol epoetin beta (MPG-EPO; PegEPO), a long-acting ESA with an extended half-life, enables less frequent administration and may offer

Спасение гиппокампальной синаптической пластичности и эффективности памяти Финголимода (FTY720) в модели APP/PS1 болезни Альцгеймера сопровождается коррекцией метаболизма финголипидов, полиаминов и фосфолипидного насыщенного состава.

Ранее, наши метаболомические, транскриптомные и геномные исследования характеризовали путь церамида/шфингомилена как терапевтическую цель в болезни Альцгеймера, и мы показали, что FTY720, фингозин-1-фосфахатный рецептор, утвержденный для лечения множественных склерозов, восстанавливает синаптическая пластичность и память в мышах APP/PS1. Для дальнейшего изучения того, как FTY720 спасает патологию, мы провели метаболический анализ мозга, плазмы и печени обученных APP/PS1 и диких мышей. APP/PS1 мыши продемонстрировали локальные нарушения мозга в полиаминах, фосфолипидах и сфинголипидах. Большинс

Chinese expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of bone metastasis in lung cancer (2022 edition).

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Bone is a common metastatic site of lung cancer, about 50% of bone metastatic patients will experience skeletal related events (SREs). SREs not only seriously impact the quality of life of patients, but also shorten their survival time. The treatment of bone metastasis requires multi-disciplinary therapy (MDT) and development of individualized treatment plan. In order to standardize the diagnosis and treatment of bone metastasis in lung cancer, the expert group of the MDT Committee of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association ha

Involvement of the Opioid Peptide Family in Cancer Progression.

Peptides mediate cancer progression favoring the mitogenesis, migration, and invasion of tumor cells, promoting metastasis and anti-apoptotic mechanisms, and facilitating angiogenesis/lymphangiogenesis. Tumor cells overexpress peptide receptors, crucial targets for developing specific treatments against cancer cells using peptide receptor antagonists and promoting apoptosis in tumor cells. Opioids exert an antitumoral effect, whereas others promote tumor growth and metastasis. This review updates the findings regarding the involvement of opioid peptides (enkephalins, endorphins, and dynorphins

Leveraging the bacteria for enhanced cancer immunotherapy: from a perspective of synthetic biology.

In recent years, synthetic biology has been widely applied to engineer and program cellular behaviors. Using this approach, bacteria can be designed to express immunotherapeutic agents, improve tumor targeting, and deliver therapeutic payloads directly to tumor sites. To further improve efficacy, strategies such as hypoxia-responsive promoters, bacterial swarming, and extracellular vesicles (EVs) have been investigated, along with the synergistic effects of combining bacterial therapy with other treatments (e.g., photodynamic therapy, chemotherapy, immune checkpoint inhibitors). This review su

Ketosis Suppression and Ageing (KetoSAge): The Effects of Suppressing Ketosis in Long Term Keto-Adapted Non-Athletic Females.

Most studies on ketosis have focused on short-term effects, male athletes, or weight loss. Hereby, we studied the effects of short-term ketosis suppression in healthy women on long-standing ketosis. Ten lean (BMI 20.5 ± 1.4), metabolically healthy, pre-menopausal women (age 32.3 ± 8.9) maintaining nutritional ketosis (NK) for > 1 year (3.9 years ± 2.3) underwent three 21-day phases: nutritional ketosis (NK; P1), suppressed ketosis (SuK; P2), and returned to NK (P3). Adherence to each phase was confirmed with daily capillary D-beta-hydroxybutyrate (BHB) tests (P1 = 1.9 ± 0.7; P2 = 0.1 ± 0.1; an

Host impairments in patients with neoplastic diseases.

Healthy individuals possess an immune system comprising physical barriers, innate and acquired immunity as well as the indigenous microflora that populate the body surfaces. The immune system maintains constant vigilance over the body at the cellular level as well as at the interface between the host integument and the resident microflora. However, neoplastic diseases and their treatment often lead to impaired immunity resulting in an increased risk of infections due to viruses, bacteria, fungi, and protozoa. This chapter explores the various aspects of host impairment focusing on the componen

Cancer cachexia--pathophysiology and management.

About half of all cancer patients show a syndrome of cachexia, characterized by anorexia and loss of adipose tissue and skeletal muscle mass. Cachexia can have a profound impact on quality of life, symptom burden, and a patient's sense of dignity. It is a very serious complication, as weight loss during cancer treatment is associated with more chemotherapy-related side effects, fewer completed cycles of chemotherapy, and decreased survival rates. Numerous cytokines have been postulated to play a role in the etiology of cancer cachexia. Cytokines can elicit effects that mimic leptin signaling a

CAR-T-Cell-Based Cancer Immunotherapies: Potentials, Limitations, and Future Prospects.

Cancer encompasses various elements occurring at the cellular and genetic levels, necessitating an immunotherapy capable of efficiently addressing both aspects. T cells can combat cancer cells by specifically recognizing antigens on them. This innate capability of T cells has been used to develop cellular immunotherapies, but most of them can only target antigens through major histocompatibility complexes (MHCs). New gene-editing techniques such as clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR)-associated protein 9 (CRISPR-cas9) can precisely edit the DNA sequences. CRISPR-c

Cytokines in CAR T Cell-Associated Neurotoxicity.

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells provide new therapeutic options for patients with relapsed/refractory hematologic malignancies. However, neurotoxicity is a frequent, and potentially fatal, complication. The spectrum of manifestations ranges from delirium and language dysfunction to seizures, coma, and fatal cerebral edema. This novel syndrome has been designated immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS). In this review, we draw an arc from our current understanding of how systemic and potentially local cytokine release act on the CNS, toward possible preventive and

Protein kinase CK2: a potential therapeutic target for diverse human diseases.

CK2 is a constitutively active Ser/Thr protein kinase, which phosphorylates hundreds of substrates, controls several signaling pathways, and is implicated in a plethora of human diseases. Its best documented role is in cancer, where it regulates practically all malignant hallmarks. Other well-known functions of CK2 are in human infections; in particular, several viruses exploit host cell CK2 for their life cycle. Very recently, also SARS-CoV-2, the virus responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic, has been found to enhance CK2 activity and to induce the phosphorylation of several CK2 substrates (ei
