Leptin, Leptin Receptor, KHDRBS1 (KH RNA Binding Domain Containing, Signal Transduction Associated 1), and Adiponectin in Bone Metastasis from Breast Carcinoma: An Immunohistochemical Study.

Breast cancer patients are at a high risk of complications from bone metastasis. Molecular characterization of bone metastases is essential for the discovery of new therapeutic targets. Here, we investigated the expression and the intracellular distribution of KH RNA binding domain containing, signal transduction associated 1 (KHDRBS1), leptin, leptin receptor (LEPR), and adiponectin in bone metastasis from breast carcinoma and looked for correlations between the data. The expression of these proteins is known in breast carcinoma, but it has not been investigated in bone metastatic tissue to d

Emerging therapeutic strategies in glioblastsoma: drug repurposing, mechanisms of resistance, precision medicine, and technological innovations.

Glioblastoma (GBM) is an aggressive Grade IV brain tumor with a poor prognosis. It results from genetic mutations, epigenetic changes, and factors within the tumor microenvironment (TME). Traditional treatments like surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy provide limited survival benefits due to the tumor's heterogeneity and resistance mechanisms. This review examines novel approaches for treating GBM, focusing on repurposing existing medications such as antipsychotics, antidepressants, and statins for their potential anti-GBM effects. Advances in molecular profiling, including next-generation

MicroRNA-mRNA Pairs Associated with Outcome in AML: From In Vitro Cell-Based Studies to AML Patients.

Cytarabine is the primary chemotherapeutic agent used for treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Disease relapse after initial remission remains one of the most pressing therapeutic challenges in the treatment of AML. Relapsed disease is often resistant to cytarabine and subsequent salvage therapy is ineffective. Recent studies have shown that some microRNAs (miRNAs) are associated with prognosis, but have not yet explored the role of miRNAs in cellular response to cytarabine. We identified 20 miRNAs that associate with the in vitro cytarabine chemo-sensitivity or apoptotic response of eig

The 8p11 myeloproliferative syndrome: Genotypic and phenotypic classification and targeted therapy.

EMS(8p11 myeloproliferative syndrome, EMS) is an aggressive hematological neoplasm with/without eosinophilia caused by a rearrangement of the FGFR1 gene at 8p11-12. It was found that all cases carry chromosome abnormalities at the molecular level, not only the previously reported chromosome translocation and insertion but also a chromosome inversion. These abnormalities produced 17 FGFR1 fusion genes, of which the most common partner genes are ZNF198 on 13q11-12 and BCR of 22q11.2. The clinical manifestations can develop into AML (acute myeloid leukemia), T-LBL (T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma),

Эпигенетика и метаболическая метаболическая дисфункция при многоразовом склерозе: обзор подходов к травяным лекарствам и текущих клинических испытаний.

Множественный склероз (MS) — сложная аутоиммунная болезнь, характеризующаяся воспалением, обезвоживанием и нейродегенерацией в центральной нервной системе (КНС). Хотя точные причины остаются неясными, недавние исследования подчеркивают важную роль эпигенетических изменений и митохондриальной дисфункции в начале и развитии болезни. Эпигенетические изменения, такие, как метилация ДНК, модификация гистона и регулирование микроРНК, влияют на генное выражение, не изменяя последовательности ДНК, что приводит к иммунной дисрегуляции и воспалению. Аналогичным образом, митохондриальная дисфункция, отме

Effect of combining glucocorticoids with Compound A on glucocorticoid receptor responsiveness in lymphoid malignancies.

Glucocorticoids (GCs) are a cornerstone in the treatment of lymphoid malignancies such as multiple myeloma (MM) and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Yet, prolonged GC use is hampered by deleterious GC-related side effects and the emergence of GC resistance. To tackle and overcome these GC-related problems, the applicability of selective glucocorticoid receptor agonists and modulators was studied, in search of fewer side-effects and at least equal therapeutic efficacy as classic GCs. Compound A (CpdA) is a prototypical example of such a selective glucocorticoid receptor modulator and does no

Stabilization of DEPTOR sensitizes hypopharyngeal cancer to radiotherapy via targeting degradation.

The use of radiotherapy for hypopharyngeal cancer (HC) treatment is increasing, and it is currently the primary treatment option for this cancer. However, radioresistance occurs in a proportion of patients. Here, we found that radiation increased proteasomal gene expression and that proteasome assembly was dependent on the induction of transcription factor NRF1 in HC. Through screening assays, we identified a mechanism by which proteasome-mediated degradation of DEP domain-containing mTOR-interacting protein (DEPTOR) contributes to the elevation of mTORC1 signaling after radiation. Therefore,

We highlight unique aspects of the autoimmune model and review current clinical data regarding treatment of rheumatologic disease. RECENT FINDINGS: To date, several CAR-Ts are FDA approved for Multiple Myeloma and B-cell malignancies and have demonstrated extraordinary clinical responses in refractory disease.

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

Bortezomib treatment produces nocifensive behavior and changes in the expression of TRPV1, CGRP, and substance P in the rat DRG, spinal cord, and sciatic nerve.

To investigate neurochemical changes associated with bortezomib-induced painful peripheral neuropathy (PN), we examined the effects of a single-dose intravenous administration of bortezomib and a well-established "chronic" schedule in a rat model of bortezomib-induced PN. The TRPV1 channel and sensory neuropeptides CGRP and substance P (SP) were studied in L4-L5 dorsal root ganglia (DRGs), spinal cord, and sciatic nerve. Behavioral measures, performed at the end of the chronic bortezomib treatment, confirmed a reduction of mechanical nociceptive threshold, whereas no difference occurred in the

Control of viral infections by epigenetic-targeted therapy.

Epigenetics is defined as the science that studies the modifications of gene expression that are not owed to mutations or changes in the genetic sequence. Recently, strong evidences are pinpointing toward a solid interplay between such epigenetic alterations and the outcome of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection. Guided by the previous possibly promising experimental trials of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) epigenetic reprogramming, the latter is paving the road toward two major approaches to control viral gene expression or latency. Reactivating HCMV from the latent phase ("shock and k

Influence of Hypoxia on Tumor Heterogeneity, DNA Repair, and Cancer Therapy: From Molecular Insights to Therapeutic Strategies.

Hypoxia, characterized by a reduction in tissue oxygen levels, is a hallmark of many solid tumors and affects a range of cellular processes, including DNA repair. In low-oxygen conditions, cancer cells often suppress key DNA repair pathways such as homologous recombination (HR), leading to the accumulation of DNA damage and increased genomic instability. These changes not only drive tumor progression but also contribute to resistance against conventional therapies. Hypoxia significantly reduces the effectiveness of oxygen-dependent treatments, including radiotherapy and many chemotherapeutic a
