How to Use a Prioritised Approach for Treating Hematological Disorders During the COVID-19 Pandemic in India?

The current pandemic coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, is known to cause severe infection (COVID-19) in patients with comorbidities, particularly cancer or an immunosuppressed state. Most healthcare systems in the country are likely to be overwhelmed soon if the pandemic moves to a stage of community transmission. Currently, limited evidence is available for managing patients with hematological disorders during the COVID-19 pandemic. The current review summarises the possible challenges clinicians are likely to face, key considerations to guide decision making, and possible solutions to the anticipated

Продольное наблюдение в реальном мире за результатами инфекции в ЦАР-Т и в странах-реципиентах биологии: протокол исследования CLARITY.

ВВЕДЕНИЕ: Инфекции являются одной из основных причин невосстановимой смертности в результате химитричной антигенной рецепторной терапии Т-клеток (CAR-T) и биконкретной антителной терапии (BsAb). Однако инфекционные данные, полученные в ходе клинических испытаний, зачастую являются неполными, не содержат подробной информации о патогенном уровне и редко отражают последние инфекционные осложнения. Цель этого исследования CAR-T в Лимфоме: анализ риска заражения после терапии (CLARITY) заключается в том, чтобы получить реальные данные о продольных инфекциях с расширенными последующими мерами для оп

Связанный с воспалением IncRNA вызывает нейронные повреждения в результате митохондриальной дисфункции.

В качестве ключевых факторов в регулировании генов появляются некодирующие SNP, которые часто находят свое отражение в специфических для тканей регулятивных элементах. Среди этих элементов длинные некодирующие РНК (lncRNA) участвуют во многих клеточных процессах, и их характеристики делают эти молекулы привлекательными для терапевтических целей. В этом исследовании мы изучили IncRNA LOC339803 в контексте нейронных клеток, которые расположены в районе 2p15, связанном с автоиммунитетом, и недавно описываем, что они играют провоспалительную роль в кишечных расстройствах. Используя образцы мозга ч

BackgroundThe World Health Organization (WHO) Essential Medicines List (EML) and resource-stratified guidelines both prioritize high-value medicines. We compared the 2023 EML cancer medicines list with global cancer statistics, examined the proportion of EML therapies recommended by resource-stratified guidelines, and identified gaps that merit evaluation by the WHO EML Committee.MethodsWe compared the 2023 EML medicines for adult cancers with cancer incidence and mortality data from GLOBOCAN 2022. We cross-referenced the EML with 2 resource-stratified guidelines (National Comprehensive Cancer

A malignant symbiosis: The neuro-metabolic symphony rewires the tumor microenvironment.

Emerging evidence in cancer neuroscience has established a reciprocal bidirectional loop between neural signaling and tumor metabolism as a central driver of malignant progression. This review critically evaluates bidirectional neuro-metabolic symbiosis and its profound implications for overcoming treatment refractoriness. We first analyzed the anterograde mechanism, in which peripheral nerve terminals and systemic endocrine factors impose distinct metabolic dependencies on malignant and stromal cell populations. By forcing alterations in nutrient utilization pathways, these neural cues create

Circadian clocks and adaptive immune function: from mechanisms to therapeutic applications.

The circadian clock exerts profound regulatory control over adaptive immunity, particularly affecting T and B lymphocyte development, trafficking, activation, and effector function. These immune cells possess autonomous molecular clocks governed by core genes such as Bmal1, Clock, Per1/2, and Cry1/2, which influence transcriptional programs related to receptor expression, cytokine signaling, and metabolism. Circadian regulation shapes the daily oscillation of lymphocyte recirculation through lymphoid organs, modulates antigen responsiveness, and fine-tunes subset differentiation-most notably s
