Pharmacological Strategies for Mitigating Cytarabine-Induced Multi-Organ Toxicity: A Scoping Review on Mechanisms, Efficacy and Clinical Implications.

BACKGROUND: Cytarabine (Ara-C) remains the cornerstone of remission-induction and consolidation chemotherapy for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and related hematological malignancies. Despite more than six decades of clinical use, its multi-organ toxicity continues to be managed almost exclusively through dose attenuation and supportive care, with no approved upstream pharmacological prevention strategy available. OBJECTIVES: This scoping review aimed to systematically map the breadth and nature of pharmacological agents tested in vivo for their capacity to mitigate cytarabine-induced multi-org

p38 MAPK regulates the Wnt inhibitor Dickkopf-1 in osteotropic prostate cancer cells.

The Wnt inhibitor Dickkopf-1 (DKK-1) has been associated with the occurrence of bone metastases in osteotropic prostate cancer by inhibiting osteoblastogenesis. P38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) activity is also dysregulated in advanced prostate cancer. However, the impact of p38 MAPK signaling on DKK-1 remains unknown. Inhibition of p38 MAPK signaling in osteolytic PC3 cells by small molecule inhibitors (doramapimod, LY2228820 and SB202190) suppressed DKK-1 expression, whereas activation of p38 MAPK by anisomycin increased DKK-1. Further dissection by targeting individual p38 MAPK i

Immune reprogramming in the bone marrow microenvironment: a new perspective on the bone immune microenvironment of postmenopausal osteoporosis.

Research on postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMOP), a common bone metabolic disease, has traditionally focused on bone loss and imbalance in bone remodeling. However, with the development of bone immunology, the complex interactions between immune cells and bone cells in the bone marrow microenvironment have gradually been revealed, and "immune reprogramming" is considered a key factor driving the persistent bone loss in PMOP. Current evidence indicates that the postmenopausal bone marrow microenvironment undergoes significant structural and functional changes. These changes are characterized by a

N-Methyl Pyrrolidone (NMP) Alleviates Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-Induced Inflammatory Injury in Articular Chondrocytes.

BACKGROUND Studies on the chondrocyte inflammatory injury are very important for understanding the pathogenesis and clinical treatment of osteoarthritis (OA). Evidence suggests that N-methyl pyrrolidone (NMP) may be used as an adjuvant therapy alongside established methods of OA treatment. This study investigated the effect of NMP on chondrocyte inflammatory injury and explored the underlying molecular mechanism. MATERIAL AND METHODS To mimic the inflammatory injury in vitro, the articular chondrocyte line ATDC5 was simulated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS). ATDC5 cells were treated with various

Cancer Metastases to Bone: Concepts, Mechanisms, and Interactions with Bone Osteoblasts.

The skeleton is a unique structure capable of providing support for the body. Bone resorption and deposition are controlled in a tightly regulated balance between osteoblasts and osteoclasts with no net bone gain or loss. However, under conditions of disease, the balance between bone resorption and deposition is upset. Osteoblasts play an important role in bone homeostasis by depositing new bone osteoid into resorption pits. It is becoming increasingly evident that osteoblasts additionally play key roles in cancer cell dissemination to bone and subsequent metastasis. Our laboratory has evidenc

Nm23-H1 inhibits lung cancer bone-specific metastasis by upregulating miR-660-5p targeted SMARCA5.

BackgroundNm23-H1 gene has been found to be an inhibitor of tumor metastasis in lung cancer. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play key roles in tumor metastasis through multiple signaling pathways. This study explored whether the nm23-H1 gene could inhibit invasion and metastasis of lung cancer cells by regulating miRNA-660-5p targets.MethodsQuantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) and western blots were used to measure the expression of nm23-H1 and miR-660-5p of various human lung cancer cell lines. Cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8), wound-healing and transwell assay were carried out to assess cell proliferation, mi

Sclerotic prostate cancer bone metastasis: woven bone lesions with a twist.

Bone metastases are the most severe and prevalent consequences of prostate cancer (PC), affecting more than 80% of patients with advanced PC. PCBMs generate pain, pathological fractures, and paralysis. As modern therapies increase survival, more patients are suffering from these catastrophic consequences. Radiographically, PCBMs are predominantly osteosclerotic, but the mechanisms of abnormal bone formation and how this pathological increase in bone density is related to fractures are unclear. In this study, we conducted a comprehensive analysis on a cohort of 76 cadaveric PCBM specimens and 1

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

Tips and Tricks and Clinical Outcome of Cryopreserved Human Amniotic Membrane Application for the Management of Medication-Related Osteonecrosis of the Jaw (MRONJ): A Pilot Study.

Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) is a complication of certain pharmacological treatments such as bisphosphonates, denosumab, and angiogenesis inhibitors. There are currently no guidelines on its management, particularly in advanced stages. The human amniotic membrane (hAM) has low immunogenicity and exerts anti-inflammatory, antifibrotic, antimicrobial, antiviral, and analgesic effects. It is a source of stem cells and growth factors promoting tissue regeneration. hAM acts as an anatomical barrier with suitable mechanical properties (permeability, stability, elasticity, flex

Biologics for bone regeneration: advances in cell, protein, gene, and mRNA therapies.

Bone fractures represent a significant global healthcare burden. Although fractures typically heal on their own, some fail to regenerate properly, leading to nonunion, a condition that causes prolonged disability, morbidity, and mortality. The challenge of treating nonunion fractures is further complicated in patients with underlying bone disorders where systemic and local factors impair bone healing. Traditional treatment approaches, including autografts, allografts, xenografts, and synthetic biomaterials, face limitations such as donor site pain, immune rejection, and insufficient mechanical

In vitro synergistic cytoreductive effects of zoledronic acid and radiation on breast cancer cells.

IntroductionBisphosphonates are mostly used in the treatment of bone metastases. They have been shown to act synergistically with other chemotherapeutic agents. It is not known, however, whether similar synergistic effects exist with radiation on breast cancer cells.MethodsHuman MCF-7 breast cancer cells were treated with up to 100 microM zoledronic acid, were irradiated with up to 800 cGy or were exposed to combinations of both treatments to determine the antiproliferative effects of zoledronic acid and radiation.ResultsZoledronic acid and radiation caused a dose-dependent and time-dependent

Targeting endoplasmic reticulum stress-induced lymphatic dysfunction for mitigating bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis.

BACKGROUND: Bisphosphonates (BPs) are the first-line treatment to stop bone resorption in diseases, including osteoporosis, Paget's disease, multiple myeloma and bone metastases of cancer. However, BPs-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (BRONJ), characterized by local inflammation and jawbone necrosis, is a severe intractable complication. The cumulative inflammatory burden often accompanies impaired lymphatic drainage, but its specific impact on BRONJ and the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. METHODS: The mouse BRONJ model was established to assess the integrity and drainage function of ly

Моделирование и нацеливание враждебной физико-химической ниши в метастазе костей: от экспериментальных платформ до нишевой терапии.

Метастаз рака до костей формируется не только из-за перекрестка опухолей, но и из-за враждебной физико-химической ниши, которая способствует стойкости к болезням и терапевтической недостаточности. Гипоксия, кислотность, минерализированная матричная архитектура, изменённая механика, интерстициальное давление, дисфункция перфузии и ограниченный перенос наркотиков влияют на метастатическое семя, общность, реактивацию, реконструкцию, боль и реакцию на лечение. Обычные two- размерные культуры и многие упрощенные three- размерные системы воспроизводят только отдельные особенности этой среды, часто п

Influence of the TGF-β Superfamily on Osteoclasts/Osteoblasts Balance in Physiological and Pathological Bone Conditions.

The balance between bone forming cells (osteoblasts/osteocytes) and bone resorbing cells (osteoclasts) plays a crucial role in tissue homeostasis and bone repair. Several hormones, cytokines, and growth factors-in particular the members of the TGF-β superfamily such as the bone morphogenetic proteins-not only regulate the proliferation, differentiation, and functioning of these cells, but also coordinate the communication between them to ensure an appropriate response. Therefore, this review focuses on TGF-β superfamily and its influence on bone formation and repair, through the regulation of

Targeting strategies for bone diseases: signaling pathways and clinical studies.

Since the proposal of Paul Ehrlich's magic bullet concept over 100 years ago, tremendous advances have occurred in targeted therapy. From the initial selective antibody, antitoxin to targeted drug delivery that emerged in the past decades, more precise therapeutic efficacy is realized in specific pathological sites of clinical diseases. As a highly pyknotic mineralized tissue with lessened blood flow, bone is characterized by a complex remodeling and homeostatic regulation mechanism, which makes drug therapy for skeletal diseases more challenging than other tissues. Bone-targeted therapy has b

ENHANZE® drug delivery technology: a novel approach to subcutaneous administration using recombinant human hyaluronidase PH20

ENHANZE® drug delivery technology is based on the proprietary recombinant human hyaluronidase PH20 enzyme (rHuPH20; Halozyme Therapeutics, Inc.) that facilitates the subcutaneous (SC) delivery of co-administered therapeutics. rHuPH20 works by degrading the glycosaminoglycan hyaluronan (HA), which plays a role in resistance to bulk fluid flow in the SC space, limiting large volume SC drug delivery, dispersion, and absorption. Co-administration of rHuPH20 with partner therapies can overcome administration time and volume barriers associated with existing SC therapeutic formulations, and has been

Printing the Pathway Forward in Bone Metastatic Cancer Research: Applications of 3D Engineered Models and Bioprinted Scaffolds to Recapitulate the Bone-Tumor Niche.

Breast cancer commonly metastasizes to bone, resulting in osteolytic lesions and poor patient quality of life. The bone extracellular matrix (ECM) plays a critical role in cancer cell metastasis by means of the physical and biochemical cues it provides to support cellular crosstalk. Current two-dimensional in-vitro models lack the spatial and biochemical complexities of the native ECM and do not fully recapitulate crosstalk that occurs between the tumor and endogenous stromal cells. Engineered models such as bone-on-a-chip, extramedullary bone, and bioreactors are presently used to model cellu

Полиморфизм меланкортина - генезиалы с воспалением и болезнями.

Рецепторы Меланокортина (МКР) выполняют различные функции: от пигментации кожи, регулирования аппетита, реакции на стресс и когниции, синтеза стероидов и энергетического баланса до регенерации клеток и иммуномодуляции. Генетический полиморфизм с распределением тканей от мозга, лимбической системы и адренальной коры до нейтрофилов, моноцитов и макрофазов проявляется в MCR. Мутации в генах MC1R, MC2R, MC3R и MC4R связаны с риском меланомы, семейной глюкокортикоидной недостаточности, ожирения и типа 2 Диафиозный сахар, соответственно. Тем временем, MC1R, MC2R и MC5R связаны с риском серьезного де

Диет модернизирует терапевтическое воздействие диметилфумарата, поддерживаемого иммунометаболическим нейтрофильным рецептором HCAR2.

Монометилфумарат (ММФ) и его пронаркодиметилфумарат (ДМП) в настоящее время являются наиболее широко используемыми агентами для лечения множественных склерозов (МС). Однако не все пациенты получают помощь от ДМФ. Мы предположили, что переменная реакция пациентов может быть связана с их питанием. В поддержку этой гипотезы мыши, подвергшиеся экспериментальному аутоиммунальному энцефаломиэлиту (EAE), являющемуся моделью MS, не пользовались лечением DMF при питании богатой лауричной кислотой диетой. В противоположность этому, мыши на нормальном питании чау (NC) и даже мыши на рационе с высоким сод

GBA1 as a risk gene for osteoporosis in the specific populations and its role in the development of Gaucher disease.

BACKGROUND: Osteoporosis and its primary complication, fragility fractures, contribute to substantial global morbidity and mortality. Gaucher disease (GD) is caused by glucocerebrosidase (GBA1) deficiency, leading to skeletal complications. This study aimed to investigate the impact of the GBA1 gene on osteoporosis progression in GD patients and the specific populations. METHODS: We selected 8115 patients with osteoporosis (T-score ≤ - 2.5) and 55,942 healthy individuals (T-score > - 1) from a clinical database (N = 95,223). Monocytes from GD patients were evaluated in relation to endoplasmic
