Assessing Heterogeneity of Osteolytic Lesions in Multiple Myeloma by ¹H HR-MAS NMR Metabolomics.

Multiple myeloma (MM) is a malignancy of plasma cells characterized by multifocal osteolytic bone lesions. Macroscopic and genetic heterogeneity has been documented within MM lesions. Understanding the bases of such heterogeneity may unveil relevant features of MM pathobiology. To this aim, we deployed unbiased ¹H high-resolution magic-angle spinning (HR-MAS) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) metabolomics to analyze multiple biopsy specimens of osteolytic lesions from one case of pathological fracture caused by MM. Multivariate analyses on normalized metabolite peak integrals allowed clusteriza

Bridging the Gap in Understanding Bone Metastasis: A Multifaceted Perspective.

The treatment of patients with advanced cancer poses clinical problems due to the complications that arise as the disease progresses. Bone metastases are a common problem that cancer patients may face, and currently, there are no effective drugs to treat these individuals. Prostate, breast, and lung cancers often spread to the bone, causing significant and disabling health conditions. The bone is a highly active and dynamic tissue and is considered a favorable environment for the growth of cancer. The role of osteoblasts and osteoclasts in the process of bone remodeling and the way in which th

Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion in Cancer-Associated Atrial Fibrillation: Who, When, and How to Manage Antithrombotic Therapy.

BackgroundCancer-associated atrial fibrillation (AF) is increasingly common, posing dual risks of thrombosis and bleeding. Long-term oral anticoagulation is often limited in these patients due to drug interactions, thrombocytopenia, and treatment-related bleeding. Left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) offers a non-pharmacological alternative for stroke prevention, yet its optimal use in cancer remains uncertain.MethodsWe conducted a narrative review of studies from 2009 to October 2025 across PubMed, Embase, and Google Scholar, including randomized trials, observational studies, registries, c

How the mechanical microenvironment of stem cell growth affects their differentiation: a review.

Stem cell differentiation is of great interest in medical research; however, specifically and effectively regulating stem cell differentiation is still a challenge. In addition to chemical factors, physical signals are an important component of the stem cell ecotone. The mechanical microenvironment of stem cells has a huge role in stem cell differentiation. Herein, we describe the knowledge accumulated to date on the mechanical environment in which stem cells exist, which consists of various factors, including the extracellular matrix and topology, substrate stiffness, shear stress, hydrostati

Окисляющий стресс и воспаление в патогенезе неврологических расстройств: механизмы и последствия.

Нейрозащита — это активный подход к защите нервной системы, включая мозг, спинной мозг и периферийные нервы, путем предотвращения или ограничения повреждения нервных клеток и других компонентов. Она защищает центральную нервную систему от повреждений от острых и прогрессивных нейродегенеративных расстройств. Окисляющий стресс, дисбаланс между естественными механизмами защиты тела и образованием реактивных видов кислорода, имеет решающее значение для развития неврологических расстройств. Из-за высокой скорости метаболизма и потребления кислорода мозг особенно уязвим к окисляющему стрессу. Чрезм

Osteoclasts in Tumor Biology: Metastasis and Epithelial-Mesenchymal-Myeloid Transition.

Osteoclast is a specialized cell that originates from monocytic lineage, communicates closely with osteoblasts under physiological conditions, participates in bone modeling and re-modeling, contributes to calcium homeostasis and osteoimmunity. In pathological conditions, it is involved in many tumors such as giant cell bone tumor (osteoclastoma), aneurysmal bone cyst, osteosarcoma, and metastatic cancers, and it usually causes local spread and progression of the tumor, working against the host. Since osteoclasts play an active role in primary bone tumors and bone metastases, the use of anti-os

Insights Into Late-Onset Rheumatoid Arthritis (LORA): Characteristics (Clinical and Imaging), Comorbidities, and Therapeutic Targets.

Late-onset rheumatoid arthritis (LORA) is defined as rheumatoid arthritis (RA) manifesting after the age of 65 years, although the terminology remains somewhat ambiguous. With the advent of a super-aging society and extended life expectancies, a significant increase in the incidence of LORA is anticipated. In comparison to young-onset RA (YORA), LORA is predominantly characterized by a higher incidence of acute onset, augmented disease activity and constitutional symptoms, a propensity for systemic manifestations, increased erythrocyte sedimentation rate at disease onset, reduced seropositivit

The Effects of Artificial Sweeteners on Intestinal Nutrient-Sensing Receptors: Dr. Jekyll or Mr. Hyde?

The consumption of artificial and low-calorie sweeteners (ASs, LCSs) is an important component of the Western diet. ASs play a role in the pathogenesis of metabolic syndrome, dysbiosis, inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs), and various inflammatory conditions. Intestinal nutrient-sensing receptors act as a crosstalk between dietary components, the gut microbiota, and the regulation of immune, endocrinological, and neurological responses. This narrative review aimed to summarize the possible effects of ASs and LCSs on intestinal nutrient-sensing receptors and their related functions. Based on the

Targeting the RANKL/RANK/OPG Axis for Cancer Therapy.

RANKL and RANK are expressed in different cell types and tissues throughout the body. They were originally described for their essential roles in bone remodeling and the immune system but have subsequently been shown to provide essential signals from regulating mammary gland homeostasis during pregnancy to modulating tumorigenesis. The success of RANKL/RANK research serves as a paragon for translational research from the laboratory to the bedside. The case in point has been the development of Denosumab, a RANKL-blocking monoclonal antibody which has already helped millions of patients sufferin

Bone sialoprotein: a multifunctional regulator of bone remodelling and tumour progression.

Bone sialoprotein (BSP) is a major non-collagenous protein of the bone extracellular matrix and an important regulator of bone formation and resorption. BSP is produced by bone cells and chondrocytes and present in the bone matrix, cells, dentin and cartilage. However, its aberrant expression in primary tumour tissues and the sera of cancer patients with metastases implicates BSP in tumour biology and progression. The Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) motif of BSP may be crucial not only for the attachment of metastasising cells to the bone surface but also for tumour growth, survival and activity. This revie

Diffusion MRI for Assessment of Bone Quality; A Review of Findings in Healthy Aging and Osteoporosis.

Diffusion MRI (dMRI) is a growing imaging technique with the potential to provide biomarkers of tissue variation, such as cellular density, tissue anisotropy, and microvascular perfusion. However, the role of dMRI in characterizing different aspects of bone quality, especially in aging and osteoporosis, has not yet been fully established, particularly in clinical applications. The reason lies in the complications accompanied with implementation of dMRI in assessment of human bone structure, in terms of acquisition and quantification.
