T-Cell Lymphoma With Sarcoid-Like Reaction and Secondary Myelofibrosis: A Unique Case Report and Literature Review.

INTRODUCTION: T-cell lymphomas are rare, comprising 10%-15% of non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHLs). Their etiology remains unclear, and pathophysiology varies widely among subtypes. Sarcoid-like reactions (SLRs) have been reported in approximately 7.3% of NHLs, including T-cell lymphomas, and can closely resemble sarcoidosis clinically/histologically. This overlap complicates diagnosis, particularly when secondary myelofibrosis-a rare and poorly understood complication-arises. Myelofibrosis has also been observed in sarcoidosis, further blurring the distinction between these entities. Treatment for T

Utility of blood procalcitonin concentration in the management of cancer patients with infections.

Diagnosis of infections in cancer patients is usually problematic since differentiating between infection and fever of unknown origin is often a considerable clinical challenge. In general, increase concentration of blood procalcitonin (PCT) is associated with severe bacterial infection. PCT with an optimal cutoff level of 0.5 ng/mL seems to be the most helpful biochemical parameter in detecting severe infections, mainly bloodstream infection, in patients with hematological cancers. In all clinical situations, the elevated level of PCT should be carefully analyzed, always with a thorough physi

Arsenic trioxide and triptolide synergistically induce apoptosis in the SKM‑1 human myelodysplastic syndrome cell line.

Although certain combination therapies comprising arsenic trioxide (As2O3) with other agents exist for the treatment of several types of human cancer, few As2O3 combination therapies are clinically effective for myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). Triptolide (TL) may be an effective therapeutic agent for the treatment of MDS. However, to date, there is no combination therapy for MDS with As2O3 and TL. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to investigate this combination therapy on the apoptosis of MDS SKM‑1 cells. The MDS SKM‑1 cells were treated with As2O3, TL or the two in combination at

From HDAC to Voltage-Gated Ion Channels: What's Next? The Long Road of Antiepileptic Drugs Repositioning in Cancer.

Cancer is a major health burden worldwide. Although the plethora of molecular targets identified in the last decades and the deriving developed treatments, which significantly improved patients' outcome, the occurrence of resistance to therapies remains the major cause of relapse and mortality. Thus, efforts in identifying new markers to be exploited as molecular targets in cancer therapy are needed. This review will first give a glance on the diagnostic and therapeutic significance of histone deacetylase (HDAC) and voltage gated ion channels (VGICs) in cancer. Nevertheless, HDAC and VGICs hav

Targeting SREBP-2-Regulated Mevalonate Metabolism for Cancer Therapy.

Recently, targeting metabolic reprogramming has emerged as a potential therapeutic approach for fighting cancer. Sterol regulatory element binding protein-2 (SREBP-2), a basic helix-loop-helix leucine zipper transcription factor, mainly regulates genes involved in cholesterol biosynthesis and homeostasis. SREBP-2 binds to the sterol regulatory elements (SREs) in the promoters of its target genes and activates the transcription of mevalonate pathway genes, such as HMG-CoA reductase (HMGCR), mevalonate kinase and other key enzymes. In this review, we first summarized the structure of SREBP-2 and

Cell therapy for brain tumors: The first 60 years.

Primary brain tumors remain among the most lethal cancers, but immunotherapy holds immense potential to overcome limitations of current standard treatment modalities. Since the late 1960s, early-phase clinical trials have iteratively tested cellular immunotherapies for the treatment of brain tumors. Six decades ago, in the earliest studies, brain tumor patients were treated with infusions of nonspecific leukocytes, peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), and bone marrow cells. These earliest studies demonstrated safety and occasional durable antitumor responses, particularly when cell ther

Male Lower Urinary Tract Dysfunction: An Underrepresented Endpoint in Toxicology Research.

Lower urinary tract dysfunction (LUTD) is nearly ubiquitous in men of advancing age and exerts substantial physical, mental, social, and financial costs to society. While a large body of research is focused on the molecular, genetic, and epigenetic underpinnings of the disease, little research has been dedicated to the influence of environmental chemicals on disease initiation, progression, or severity. Despite a few recent studies indicating a potential developmental origin of male LUTD linked to chemical exposures in the womb, it remains a grossly understudied endpoint in toxicology research

Novel therapies emerging in oncology to target the TGF-β pathway.

The TGF-β signaling pathway governs key cellular processes under physiologic conditions and is deregulated in many pathologies, including cancer. TGF-β is a multifunctional cytokine that acts in a cell- and context-dependent manner as a tumor promoter or tumor suppressor. As a tumor promoter, the TGF-β pathway enhances cell proliferation, migratory invasion, metastatic spread within the tumor microenvironment and suppresses immunosurveillance. Collectively, the pleiotropic nature of TGF-β signaling contributes to drug resistance, tumor escape and undermines clinical response to therapy. Based
