Osteoprotective Roles of Green Tea Catechins.

Osteoporosis is the second most common disease only secondary to cardiovascular disease, with the risk of fracture increasing with age. Osteoporosis is caused by an imbalance between osteoblastogenesis and osteoclastogenesis processes. Osteoclastogenesis may be enhanced, osteoblastogenesis may be reduced, or both may be evident. Inflammation and high reactive oxygen enhance osteoclastogenesis while reducing osteoblastogenesis by inducing osteoblast apoptosis and suppressing osteoblastic proliferation and differentiation. Catechins, the main polyphenols found in green tea with potent anti-oxida

Navigating Stomatologic Complications Secondary to Antineoplastic Agents-A Comprehensive Review.

This review systematically examines the oral complications associated with conventional and novel anti-cancer therapies. It highlights that while molecularly targeted agents including monoclonal antibodies targeting the vascular endothelial growth factor and its receptor, the epidermal growth factor receptor, tyrosine kinase inhibitors, and immune checkpoint inhibitors tend to exhibit a lower overall toxicity profile compared to traditional cytotoxic chemotherapeutics, they are nonetheless linked to significant oral adverse events. These complications encompass inflammatory mucosal reactions k

Последние достижения в области мезенхимической стволовой клеточной терапии для множественных склерозов: клинические виды применения и проблемы.

Множественный склероз (MS), хроническое аутоиммунное расстройство центральной нервной системы (CNS), характеризуется воспалением, обезвоживанием и нейродегенерацией, что приводит к различным клиническим проявлениям, таким, как усталость, сенсорное расстройство и когнитивная дисфункция. Текущее фармакологическое лечение направлено прежде всего на иммунную модуляцию, но не позволяет остановить прогрессию заболеваний или полностью обратить на нет повреждения CNS. Лечение стволовыми клетками (MSC) является многообещающей альтернативой, используя иммуномудуляторы, нейрозащиту и регенеративные спосо

Mucositis and Infection in Hematology Patients.

Nevertheless, important and debilitating complications of intensive treatment regimens still frequently occur, including mucositis, fever and bloodstream infections. Exploring potential interacting mechanisms and directed therapies to counteract mucosal barrier injury is of the utmost importance if we are to continue to improve care for this increasingly growing patient population. In this perspective, I highlight recent advanc

Current Uses of Mushrooms in Cancer Treatment and Their Anticancer Mechanisms.

Cancer is the leading cause of mortality worldwide. Various chemotherapeutic drugs have been extensively used for cancer treatment. However, current anticancer drugs cause severe side effects and induce resistance. Therefore, the development of novel and effective anticancer agents with minimal or no side effects is important. Notably, natural compounds have been highlighted as anticancer drugs. Among them, many researchers have focused on mushrooms that have biological activities, including antitumor activity. The aim of this review is to discuss the anticancer potential of different mushroom

Longitudinal cohort study highlights cancer-preventive benefits of lipid-lowering drugs.

Cancer prevention is a serious global challenge. We aimed to investigate the relationship between lipid-lowering drugs and cancers. We included participants based on the UK Biobank. Lipid-lowering drug use was defined as new users before enrollment and the primary outcome was cancer incidence. The Cox proportional hazards regression model was used to evaluate the association between drug use and outcome. We also performed a meta-analysis. We found that lipid-lowering drugs were associated with decreased risk of 21 types of cancers, including melanoma, skin cancer, and reproductive, hematologic

Apoptotic Pathway as the Therapeutic Target for Anticancer Traditional Chinese Medicines.

Cancer is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Apoptosis is a process of programmed cell death and it plays a vital role in human development and tissue homeostasis. Mounting evidence indicates that apoptosis is closely related to the survival of cancer and it has emerged as a key target for the discovery and development of novel anticancer drugs. Various studies indicate that targeting the apoptotic signaling pathway by anticancer drugs is an important mechanism in cancer therapy. Therefore, numerous novel anticancer agents have been discovered and developed from traditional

Revisiting Curcumin in Cancer Therapy: Recent Insights into Molecular Mechanisms, Nanoformulations, and Synergistic Combinations.

Curcumin has been extensively investigated as an anticancer agent, yet its clinical application remains constrained by low bioavailability, incomplete mechanistic understanding, and limited therapeutic optimization. In light of growing resistance to conventional chemotherapies and the demand for safer, multi-targeted agents, this review revisits curcumin with a contemporary lens. We critically evaluate the literature published since 2020, focusing on newly elucidated molecular mechanisms by which curcumin regulates tumor progression, including modulation of oncogenic signaling pathways (Wnt/β-

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

Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor Therapy for Bone Metastases: Specific Microenvironment and Current Situation.

The treatment of bone metastases is a thorny issue. Immunotherapy may be one of the few hopes for patients with unresectable bone metastases. Immune checkpoint inhibitors are the most commonly used immunotherapy drugs currently. In this review, the characteristics and interaction of bone metastases and their immune microenvironment were systematically discussed, and the relevant research progress of the immunological mechanism of tumor bone metastasis was reviewed. On this basis, we expounded the clinical application of immune checkpoint inhibitors for bone metastasis of common tumors, includi

Hallmarks of Cancer Affected by the MIF Cytokine Family.

New diagnostic methods and treatments have significantly decreased the mortality rates of cancer patients, but further improvements are warranted based on the identification of novel tumor-promoting molecules that can serve as therapeutic targets. The macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) family of cytokines, comprising MIF and DDT (also known as MIF2), are overexpressed in almost all cancer types, and their high expressions are related to a worse prognosis for the patients. MIF is involved in 9 of the 10 hallmarks of cancer, and its inhibition by antibodies, nanobodies, or small synthe

The role of abnormal epigenetic regulation of small GTPases in glioma (Review).

Brain tumors are one of the most severe types of malignant tumors and glioma accounts for ~80% of malignant brain tumors. The current treatment methods for glioma are limited and patients with glioma often experience relapse following treatment, which leads to a poor prognosis for these patients. Therefore, novel therapeutic targets and methods urgently need to be explored. The present review screened studies that mainly focused on the epigenetic regulation of small guanosine triphosphate (GTP)ase in glioma. These small GTPases participate in most cellular biological processes, including diffe

Natural Compounds with Potential to Modulate Cancer Therapies and Self-Reactive Immune Cells.

Cancer-related deaths are approaching 10 million each year. Survival statistics for some cancers, such as ovarian cancer, have remained unchanged for decades, with women diagnosed at stage III or IV having over 80% chance of a lethal cancer recurrence after standard first-line treatment (reductive surgery and chemotherapy). New treatments and adjunct therapies are needed. In ovarian cancer, as in other cancers, the immune response, particularly cytotoxic (CD8+) T cells are correlated with a decreased risk of recurrence. As well as completely new antigen targets resulting from DNA mutations (ne

Targeted Delivery of Drugs and Genes Using Polymer Nanocarriers for Cancer Therapy.

Cancer is one of the primary causes of worldwide human deaths. Most cancer patients receive chemotherapy and radiotherapy, but these treatments are usually only partially efficacious and lead to a variety of serious side effects. Therefore, it is necessary to develop new therapeutic strategies. The emergence of nanotechnology has had a profound impact on general clinical treatment. The application of nanotechnology has facilitated the development of nano-drug delivery systems (NDDSs) that are highly tumor selective and allow for the slow release of active anticancer drugs. In recent years, veh

Оптимальный выбор способа управления лекарствами в отношении внутримышечной и подкожной инъекции.

Внутримышечное (IV), внутримышечное (IM) и подкожное (SC) three - наиболее часто используемые пути инъекции для лечения лекарств. Время от времени проводились сравнительные исследования СК по отношению к IV, IM по отношению к IV, или IM по сравнению с СК, и некоторые новые выводы совершенно отличаются от рекомендаций в отношении дозировки, описанных в предписаниях в отношении информации. Однако врачи, возможно, до сих пор не знают о таких новых фактах при выборе методов лечения.

Autoimmune Neuromuscular Disorders at a Molecular Crossroad: Linking Pathogenesis to Targeted Immunotherapy.

Myasthenia gravis, chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy, and idiopathic inflammatory myopathies are among the most widely recognized autoimmune neuromuscular disorders. Although they differ in clinical presentation, shared immunopathogenic mechanisms place them at a molecular crossroads. Evidence of overlapping pathways has led to the development of targeted strategies including complement inhibition, FcRn antagonism, B-cell depletion, and the CAR-T cell approach. In this review, we analyze current knowledge regarding pathogenic mechanisms and their link to immunotherapy, extensiv

Exploring new drug treatment targets for immune related bone diseases using a multi omics joint analysis strategy.

In the field of treatment and prevention of immune-related bone diseases, significant challenges persist, necessitating the urgent exploration of new and effective treatment methods. However, most existing Mendelian randomization (MR) studies are confined to a single analytical approach, which limits the comprehensive understanding of the pathogenesis and potential therapeutic targets of these diseases. In light of this, we propose the hypothesis that genetic variations in specific plasma proteins have a causal relationship with immune-related bone diseases through the MR mechanism, and that k
