Anticancer natural products from the Middle East and North Africa: biodiversity, mechanisms, and translational challenges.

Cancer remains one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide, imposing substantial clinical, societal, and economic burdens. Despite major advances in surgical oncology, systemic chemotherapy, radiation therapy, molecularly targeted therapeutics, and immune checkpoint inhibition, contemporary cancer treatment remains constrained by dose-limiting toxicities, intratumoral and intertumoral heterogeneity, and the inexorable emergence of multifaceted drug resistance mechanisms. These persistent therapeutic challenges have reinstated interest in natural products (NPs) as evolutionar

Genus Sophora: a comprehensive review on secondary chemical metabolites and their biological aspects from past achievements to future perspectives.

Sophora is deemed as one of the most remarkable genera of Fabaceae, and the third largest family of flowering plants. The genus Sophora comprises approximately 52 species, 19 varieties, and 7 forms that are widely distributed in Asia and mildly in Africa. Sophora species are recognized to be substantial sources of broad spectrum biopertinent secondary metabolites namely flavonoids, isoflavonoids, chalcones, chromones, pterocarpans, coumarins, benzofuran derivatives, sterols, saponins (mainly triterpene glycosides), oligostilbenes, and mainly alkaloids. Meanwhile, extracts and isolated compoun

Bone Metastasis Pain, from the Bench to the Bedside.

Bone is the most frequent site of metastasis of the most common cancers in men and women. Bone metastasis incidence has been steadily increasing over the years, mainly because of higher life expectancy in oncologic patients. Although bone metastases are sometimes asymptomatic, their consequences are most often devastating, impairing both life quality and expectancy, due to the occurrence of the skeletal-related events, including bone fractures, hypercalcemia and spinal cord compression. Up to 75% of patients endure crippling cancer-induced bone pain (CIBP), against which we have very few weapo

Joint AI-driven event prediction and longitudinal modeling in newly diagnosed and relapsed multiple myeloma.

Multiple myeloma management requires a balance between maximizing survival, minimizing adverse events to therapy, and monitoring disease progression. While previous work has proposed data-driven models for individual tasks, these approaches fail to provide a holistic view of a patient's disease state, limiting their utility to assist physician decision-making. To address this limitation, we developed a transformer-based machine learning model that jointly (1) predicts progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and adverse events (AE), (2) forecasts key disease biomarkers, and (3)

Computational study of SENP1 in cancer by novel natural compounds and ZINC database screening.

Introduction: Sentrin-specific protease 1 (SENP1) is a protein whose main function is deSUMOylation. SENP1 inhibits apoptosis, and increases angiogenesis, estrogen and androgen receptor transcription and c-Jun transcription factor, proliferation, growth, cell migration, and invasion of cancer. The in vivo and in vitro studies also demonstrated which natural compounds, especially phytochemicals, minerals, and vitamins, prevent cancer. More than 3,000 plant species have been reported in modern medicine. Natural compounds have many anti-cancerous andanti-turmeric properties such as antioxidative,

Protein kinase CK2: a potential therapeutic target for diverse human diseases.

CK2 is a constitutively active Ser/Thr protein kinase, which phosphorylates hundreds of substrates, controls several signaling pathways, and is implicated in a plethora of human diseases. Its best documented role is in cancer, where it regulates practically all malignant hallmarks. Other well-known functions of CK2 are in human infections; in particular, several viruses exploit host cell CK2 for their life cycle. Very recently, also SARS-CoV-2, the virus responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic, has been found to enhance CK2 activity and to induce the phosphorylation of several CK2 substrates (ei

The Role of Nucleotide Excision Repair in Cisplatin-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy: Mechanism, Prevention, and Treatment.

Platinum-based chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is one of the most common dose-limiting effects of cancer treatment and results in dose reduction and discontinuation of life-saving chemotherapy. Its debilitating effects are often permanent and lead to lifelong impairment of quality of life in cancer patients. While the mechanisms underlying the toxicity are not yet fully defined, dorsal root ganglia sensory neurons play an integral role in symptom development. DNA-platinum adducts accumulate in these cells and inhibit normal cellular function. Nucleotide excision repair (NER)

An exploration of person-centred approach in end-of-life care policies in England and Japan.

BackgroundIncreasing evidence has suggested that a person-centred approach (PCA) is beneficial not only for improving care outcomes but also for mitigating the pressure on public health systems. However, policy implementation gaps have prevented the translation of this complex framework into useful practical, ethical and moral stances for end-of-life care (EOLC). This article aims to explore the meaning and implications of person-centredness in EOLC policy discourses.MethodsBy perceiving policy documents as a medium embodied with socio-political and cultural norms, we analysed how PCA in EOLC

Current and upcoming radionuclide therapies in the direction of precision oncology: A narrative review.

As new molecular tracers are identified to target specific receptors, tissue, and tumor types, opportunities arise for the development of both diagnostic tracers and their therapeutic counterparts, termed "theranostics." While diagnostic tracers utilize positron emitters or gamma-emitting radionuclides, their theranostic counterparts are typically bound to beta and alpha emitters, which can deliver specific and localized radiation to targets with minimal collateral damage to uninvolved surrounding structures. This is an exciting time in molecular imaging and therapy and a step towards personal

Between Charybdis and Scylla-an Odyssey in AL amyloidosis: insights and learnings from a narrative review and case report series.

Being "between Scylla and Charybdis" is an idiom derived from Greek mythology to mean "between a rock and a hard place" and clinicians managing amyloid light-chain (AL) amyloidosis often find themselves in this predicament. AL amyloidosis is caused by monoclonal light chains, most commonly produced by CD-38 positive plasma cells in target organs. The disease usually involves significant cardiac and/or renal involvement, but the systemic nature of the disease often leads to variable and non-specific manifestations that can critically delay early diagnosis and treatment. Here, we present a case

Crosstalk of the Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling Pathway in the Induction of Apoptosis on Cancer Cells.

The Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway plays a major role in cell survival and proliferation, as well as in angiogenesis, migration, invasion, metastasis, and stem cell renewal in various cancer types. However, the modulation (either up- or downregulation) of this pathway can inhibit cell proliferation and apoptosis both through β-catenin-dependent and independent mechanisms, and by crosstalk with other signaling pathways in a wide range of malignant tumors. Existing studies have reported conflicting results, indicating that the Wnt signaling can have both oncogenic and tumor-suppressing roles, d

Curcumin Formulations for Better Bioavailability: What We Learned from Clinical Trials Thus Far?

Curcumin has been credited with a wide spectrum of pharmacological properties for the prevention and treatment of several chronic diseases such as arthritis, autoimmune diseases, cancer, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, hemoglobinopathies, hypertension, infectious diseases, inflammation, metabolic syndrome, neurological diseases, obesity, and skin diseases. However, due to its weak solubility and bioavailability, it has limited potential as an oral medication. Numerous factors including low water solubility, poor intestinal permeability, instability at alkaline pH, and fast metabolism contri

Study of a novel Ca/P/S-based cement implanted in the osteoporotic goat spine and its clinical application in preventing adjacent vertebral fractures.

Osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF) has been increasing over the last decades. In addition to primary OVCF, the adjacent vertebral fracture (AVF) is a frequent serious complication in OVCF patients receiving percutaneous vertebroplasty or kyphoplasty, resulting in poor long-term outcome and recurrent symptoms. The aim of the present study is to investigate the bone regeneration behavior of a novel Ca/P/S-based resorbable cement (Ezechbone® Cement CBC-400) implanted into surgically created vertebral defects of ovariectomized (OVX) goats. Furthermore, the present study provides a

Echocardiographic Probability of Pulmonary Hypertension, Cardiac Structural Alterations and All-Cause Mortality in Maintenance Hemodialysis Patients: A Single-Center Retrospective Cohort Study With Competing Risk Analysis.

BACKGROUND: Maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients carry extremely high cardiovascular mortality, where pulmonary hypertension (PH) and vascular access are critical prognostic factors. However, previous survival studies seldom considered renal transplantation as a competing event, potentially biasing risk factor estimates, and the heterogeneity of mortality predictors across vascular access subtypes remains unclear. This study aimed to evaluate whether echocardiographic probability of PH is independently associated with all-cause mortality in MHD patients using a competing risk model. Seconda

An explainable predictive machine learning model of osteopenia for perimenopausal women based on clinical data: a retrospective single-center study.

BACKGROUND: Osteoporosis is increasingly prevalent, yet early detection remains difficult. This study aimed to develop a machine learning (ML)-based model for identifying individuals at risk of osteopenia using clinical data. METHODS: Female participants who were aged 45 years and above with complete femoral neck BMD data were included. A total of 1,108 participants were divided into training (70%) and test (30%) datasets.
