Evidence of brain-derived neurotrophic factor in ameliorating cancer-related cognitive impairment: A systematic review of human studies.

Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) plays an essential role in neurogenesis and neuroplasticity and may be a key protein in cancer-related cognitive impairment (CRCI). This systematic review assessed the relationship between BDNF biomarkers and neurocognitive outcomes in cancer patients and survivors. A search in PubMed, Scopus, and PsycINFO yielded 638 articles, of which 26 were eligible. Fourteen (54 %) studied BDNF protein levels while 15 (58 %) analyzed BDNF rs6265 polymorphism. Of the nine observational studies reporting BDNF plasma/serum levels, five (56 %) exhibited a positive asso

Recent advances in CAR-MSCs: the new engine of cellular immunotherapy evolution.

In recent years, the development of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) technology has greatly promoted the progress of cellular immunotherapy. Among them, CAR-T cell therapy has shown remarkable clinical effects in the treatment of hematological malignancies. However, this therapy still faces a series of challenges, including immunogenicity, toxic side effects, and insufficient maintenance of long-term efficacy. The latest research progress has extended CAR technology to mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), and the resulting CAR-MSCs combine the precise targeting ability of CAR molecules with the inher

Effects of Obesity and Calorie Restriction on Cancer Development.

The risk of malignant tumor development is increasing in the world. Obesity is an established risk factor for various malignancies. There are many metabolic alterations associated with obesity which promote cancerogenesis. Excessive body weight leads to increased levels of estrogens, chronic inflammation and hypoxia, which can play an important role in the development of malignancies. It is proved that calorie restriction can improve the state of patients with various diseases. Decreased calorie uptake influences lipid, carbohydrate and protein metabolism, hormone levels and cell processes. Ma

Targeting the Post-Irradiation Tumor Microenvironment in Glioblastoma via Inhibition of CXCL12.

Radiotherapy is a mainstay in glioblastoma therapy as it not only directly targets tumor cells but also depletes the tumor microvasculature. The resulting intra-tumoral hypoxia initiates a chain of events that ultimately leads to re-vascularization, immunosuppression and, ultimately, tumor-regrowth. The key component of this cascade is overexpression of the CXC-motive chemokine ligand 12 (CXCL12), formerly known as stromal-cell derived factor 1 (SDF-1). We here review the role of CXCL12 in recruitment of pro-vasculogenic and immunosuppressive cells and give an overview on future and current dr

Chinese expert consensus recommendations for the administration of immune checkpoint inhibitors to special cancer patient populations.

Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) targeting programmed cell death 1, programmed cell death ligand 1, and cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated antigen-4 have shown significantly durable clinical benefits and tolerable toxicities and have improved the survival of patients with various types of cancer. Since 2018, the National Medical Products Administration of China has approved 17 ICIs as the standard treatment for certain advanced or metastatic solid tumors. As ICIs represent a broad-spectrum antitumor strategy, the populations eligible for cancer immunotherapy are rapidly expanding. However, t

Exploring the Molecular Mechanisms by Which DEHP Promotes the Occurrence and Progression of Kidney Stones Based on Network Toxicology and Experimental Validation.

BACKGROUND: The global burden of kidney stones is increasing, while di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP), a widespread plasticizer and endocrine-disrupting pollutant, has been implicated as a potential environmental risk factor. This study investigated the mechanisms by which DEHP may aggravate calcium oxalate kidney stones through network toxicology, computational analyses, and experimental validation. METHODS: DEHP- and kidney stone-related targets were retrieved from six databases. Shared targets were analyzed using protein-protein interaction networks and Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia

Novel Insights into the Links between N6-Methyladenosine and Regulated Cell Death in Musculoskeletal Diseases.

Musculoskeletal diseases (MSDs), including osteoarthritis (OA), osteosarcoma (OS), multiple myeloma (MM), intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD), osteoporosis (OP), and rheumatoid arthritis (RA), present noteworthy obstacles associated with pain, disability, and impaired quality of life on a global scale. In recent years, it has become increasingly apparent that N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is a key regulator in the expression of genes in a multitude of biological processes. m6A is composed of 0.1-0.4% adenylate residues, especially at the beginning of 3'-UTR near the translation stop codon. The m

How does academia respond to the burden of infectious and parasitic disease?

BackgroundAcademic research is one of the main avenues through which humans can fight the threat of infectious diseases. However, there have been concerns regarding whether the academic system has provided sufficient efforts to fight infectious diseases we potentially face. Answering these questions could contribute to evidence-based recommendations for setting research priorities and third-mission policies.MethodsWith a focus on one of the most common categories of communicable diseases, infectious and parasitic diseases (IPDs), we searched Web of Science for articles and reviews relevant to

Ligand-Gated Ion Channels as Targets for Treatment and Management of Cancers.

Ligand-gated ion channels are an ionotropic receptor subtype characterized by the binding of an extracellular ligand, followed by the transient passage of ions through a transmembrane pore. Ligand-gated ion channels are commonly subcategorized into three superfamilies: purinoreceptors, glutamate receptors, and Cys-loop receptors. This classification is based on the differing topographical morphology of the receptors, which in turn confers functional differences. Ligand-gated ion channels have a diverse spatial and temporal expression which implicate them in key cellular processes. Given that t

T-Type Calcium Channels: A Mixed Blessing.

The role of T-type calcium channels is well established in excitable cells, where they preside over action potential generation, automaticity, and firing. They also contribute to intracellular calcium signaling, cell cycle progression, and cell fate; and, in this sense, they emerge as key regulators also in non-excitable cells. In particular, their expression may be considered a prognostic factor in cancer. Almost all cancer cells express T-type calcium channels to the point that it has been considered a pharmacological target; but, as the drugs used to reduce their expression are not complete

The role of CD38 in HIV infection.

The widely-expressed molecule CD38 is a single-stranded type II transmembrane glycoprotein that is mainly involved in regulating the differentiation and activation state of the cell. CD38 has broad and complex functions, including enzymatic activity, intercellular signal transduction, cell activation, cytokine production, receptor function and adhesion activity, and it plays an important role in the physiological and pathological processes of many diseases. Many studies have shown that CD38 is related to the occurrence and development of HIV infection, and CD38 may regulate its progression thr

Клеточная терапия в многоразовом склерозе: Клинические достижения, ограничения и перспективы на будущее из клинических исследований - систематический обзор.

Фон: Множественный склероз (MS) — хроническое аутоиммунное демиелинирующее заболевание центральной нервной системы (CNS), характеризующееся воспалением, обезвоживанием и прогрессивным нейродегенерацией. Несмотря на то, что нынешняя медикаментозная терапия (ДМТ) может снизить частоту рецидивов и провокационной активности, они редко останавливают долгосрочное развитие или устраняют неврологические повреждения. В последние годы клеточная терапия стала многообещающим подходом к содействию иммунальному регулированию и нейрогенерации в MS. Методы: Настоящий обзор резюмирует текущие клинические данны

Noncoding RNAs improve the predictive power of network medicine.

Network medicine has improved the mechanistic understanding of disease, offering quantitative insights into disease mechanisms, comorbidities, and novel diagnostic tools and therapeutic treatments. Yet, most network-based approaches rely on a comprehensive map of protein-protein interactions (PPI), ignoring interactions mediated by noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs). Here, we systematically combine experimentally confirmed binding interactions mediated by ncRNA with PPI, constructing a comprehensive network of all physical interactions in the human cell. We find that the inclusion of ncRNA expands the nu

Catching Them Early: Framework Parameters and Progress for Prenatal and Childhood Application of Advanced Therapies.

Advanced therapy medicinal products (ATMPs) are medicines for human use based on genes, cells or tissue engineering. After clear successes in adults, the nascent technology now sees increasing pediatric application. For many still untreatable disorders with pre- or perinatal onset, timely intervention is simply indispensable; thus, prenatal and pediatric applications of ATMPs hold great promise for curative treatments. Moreover, for most inherited disorders, early ATMP application may substantially improve efficiency, economy and accessibility compared with application in adults. Vindicating t

CRLF1 and CLCF1 in Development, Health and Disease.

Cytokines and their receptors have a vital function in regulating various processes such as immune function, inflammation, haematopoiesis, cell growth and differentiation. The interaction between a cytokine and its specific receptor triggers intracellular signalling cascades that lead to altered gene expression in the target cell and consequent changes in its proliferation, differentiation, or activation. In this review, we highlight the role of the soluble type I cytokine receptor CRLF1 (cytokine receptor-like factor-1) and the Interleukin (IL)-6 cytokine CLCF1 (cardiotrophin-like cytokine fa
