Exploring COX-Independent Pathways: A Novel Approach for Meloxicam and Other NSAIDs in Cancer and Cardiovascular Disease Treatment.

As a fundamental process of innate immunity, inflammation is associated with the pathologic process of various diseases and constitutes a prevalent risk factor for both cancer and cardiovascular disease (CVD). Studies have indicated that several non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), including Meloxicam, may prevent tumorigenesis, reduce the risk of carcinogenesis, improve the efficacy of anticancer therapies, and reduce the risk of CVD, in addition to controlling the body's inflammatory imbalances. Traditionally, most NSAIDs work by inhibiting cyclooxygenase (COX) activity, thereby b

Development of Anticancer Peptides Using Artificial Intelligence and Combinational Therapy for Cancer Therapeutics.

Cancer is a group of diseases causing abnormal cell growth, altering the genome, and invading or spreading to other parts of the body. Among therapeutic peptide drugs, anticancer peptides (ACPs) have been considered to target and kill cancer cells because cancer cells have unique characteristics such as a high negative charge and abundance of microvilli in the cell membrane when compared to a normal cell. ACPs have several advantages, such as high specificity, cost-effectiveness, low immunogenicity, minimal toxicity, and high tolerance under normal physiological conditions. However, the develo

Safety of Eosinophil-Depleting Therapy for Severe, Eosinophilic Asthma: Focus on Benralizumab.

Eosinophils play a pivotal role in the inflammatory pathology of asthma and have been the target of new biologic treatments for patients with eosinophilic asthma. Given the central role of interleukin (IL)-5 in the eosinophil lifecycle, several therapies directed against the IL-5 pathway have been developed, including the anti-IL-5 antibodies mepolizumab and reslizumab and the IL-5 receptor α (IL-5Rα)-directed cytolytic antibody benralizumab. Eosinophil-depleting therapies represent a relatively new class of asthma treatment, and it is important to understand their long-term efficacy and safet

Targeting Autophagy Using Long Non-Coding RNAs (LncRNAs): New Landscapes in the Arena of Cancer Therapeutics.

Cancer has become a global health hazard accounting for 10 million deaths in the year 2020. Although different treatment approaches have increased patient overall survival, treatment for advanced stages still suffers from poor clinical outcomes. The ever-increasing prevalence of cancer has led to a reanalysis of cellular and molecular events in the hope to identify and develop a cure for this multigenic disease. Autophagy, an evolutionary conserved catabolic process, eliminates protein aggregates and damaged organelles to maintain cellular homeostasis. Accumulating evidence has implicated the

Clinical decision support in hematological malignancies using a case-grounded AI agent.

Multidisciplinary tumor boards integrate longitudinal treatment histories, molecular profiling and rapidly evolving evidence to guide decisions in hematological malignancies, yet access to this level of subspecialty deliberation is increasingly uneven. Here we develop HemaGuide, a locally deployable, modular large language model agent that converts unstructured clinical documents into structured case representations, autonomously routes cases to specialized decision modes ('guideline', 'advanced' and 'molecular') and grounds recommendations in disease-specific guideline flowcharts and a clinic

Histone deacetylase 6: A new player in oxidative stress‑associated disorders and cancers (Review).

Histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6), a distinctive member of the histone deacetylase family, plays a crucial role in regulating the cellular response to oxidative stress. Unlike other HDACs, HDAC6 primarily deacetylates non‑histone proteins, influencing various cellular functions critical to the pathogenesis of numerous oxidative stress‑related diseases. This review summarizes the latest research on how HDAC6 affects oxidative stress pathways and its impact on diseases such as neurodegeneration, cancer and cardiovascular disorders. Additionally, the therapeutic potential of targeting HDAC6, as evide

Novel insight and perspectives of nanoparticle-mediated gene delivery and immune-modulating therapies for pancreatic cancer.

Current standard-of-care therapies have failed to improve the survival of patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer (PCA). Therefore, exploring novel therapeutic approaches for cancer targeting is of utmost need. During the past few years, many efforts have been made to develop conventional treatment strategies to reduce chemotherapy resistance. However, critical challenges have impeded current cancer management outcomes, and limited clinical responses have been achieved due to unfavorable off-target effects. Advances in nanotechnology-based gene and immune-modulator delivery systems have exc

Extracellular vesicles in tumor-adipose tissue crosstalk: key drivers and therapeutic targets in cancer cachexia.

Cancer cachexia is a complex metabolic syndrome characterized by unintentional loss of skeletal muscle and body fat. This syndrome is frequently associated with different types of cancer and negatively affects the prognosis and outcome of these patients. It involves a dynamic interplay between tumor cells and adipose tissue, where tumor-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) play a crucial role in mediating intercellular communication. Tumor cells release EVs containing bioactive molecules such as hormones (adrenomedullin, PTHrP), pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-6), and miRNAs (miR-1304-3p, miR-2

Enhancing persistence while managing cytokine release syndrome to embrace next-generation CAR-T cell therapy.

BACKGROUND: CAR-T cell therapy represents a major breakthrough in hematological malignancies. However, the trade-off between insufficient treatment persistence and treatment-related toxicities (especially cytokine release syndrome, CRS) still limits its wider clinical application. MAIN BODY: Our review aims to reframe the understanding of this central dilemma. It posits that the dynamic imbalance of intracellular signaling networks and external inflammation in the tumor microenvironment (TME) are the causes of insufficient persistence of CAR-T cells and the severe CRS. The intracellular signa

Multidimensional Predictors of Cancer-Related Fatigue Based on the Predisposing, Precipitating, and Perpetuating (3P) Model: A Systematic Review.

Cancer-related fatigue (CRF) is a widespread symptom with high prevalence in cancer patients, seriously affecting their quality of life. In the context of precision care, constructing machine learning-based prediction models for early screening and assessment of CRF is beneficial to this situation. To further understand the predictors of CRF for model construction, we conducted a comprehensive search in PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, and Scopus databases, combining CRF with predictor-related terms. A total of 27 papers met the inclusion criteria. We evaluated the above studies into three subg

The Role of Inflammation in Tinnitus: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Subjective tinnitus is the perception of sound without the presence of an external source. Increasing evidence suggests that tinnitus is associated with inflammation. In this systematic review, the role of inflammation in subjective tinnitus was studied. Nine animal and twenty human studies reporting inflammatory markers in both humans and animals with tinnitus were included. It was established that TNF-α and IL-1β are increased in tinnitus, and that microglia and astrocytes are activated as well. Moreover, platelet activation may also play a role in tinnitus. In addition, we elaborate on mech

Clinical Aspects of B Cell Immunodeficiencies: The Past, the Present and the Future.

B cells and antibodies are indispensable for host immunity. Our understanding of the mechanistic processes that underpin how B cells operate has left an indelible mark on the field of clinical pathology, and recently has also dramatically reshaped the therapeutic landscape of diseases that were once considered incurable. Evaluating patients with primary immunodeficiency diseases (PID)/inborn errors of immunity (IEI) that primarily affect B cells, offers us an opportunity to further our understanding of how B cells develop, mature, function and, in certain instances, cause further disease.
