Nucleotide Metabolism in Health and Disease.

Nucleotide metabolism is a fundamental biochemical process, providing the building blocks for DNA and RNA synthesis while driving critical cellular functions like energy transfer, signal transduction, and coenzyme synthesis. The precise regulation of nucleotide de novo synthesis, salvage, and degradation pathways is imperative for maintaining genomic stability and tissue homeostasis. Aberrations in these networks are increasingly recognized as primary drivers in various pathologies; notably, cancer cells exploit metabolic-functional reprogramming to enable rapid proliferation and therapeutic r

Слежка за глазами для оценки легкого когнитивного расстройства: систематический обзор.

Легкое когнитивное расстройство (MCI), представляющее собой «переходную зону» между нормальным когнитивом и слабоумием, стало новой темой в клинических исследованиях. Хотя раннее обнаружение имеет решающее значение, в то же время оно по-прежнему сопряжено с материально-техническими трудностями. В то время как традиционные тесты с использованием перчаток и бумаги требуют углубленной подготовки для обеспечения стандартного управления и точного толкования результатов, значительные технологические достижения ведут к разработке процедур раннего обнаружения болезни Альцгеймера (АЗ) и облегчают диагн

Routes of administration, reasons for use, and approved indications of medical cannabis in oncology: a scoping review.

INTRODUCTION: Some patients diagnosed with cancer use medical cannabis to self-manage undesirable symptoms, including nausea and pain. To improve patient safety and oncological care quality, the routes of administration for use of medical cannabis, patients' reasons, and prescribed indications must be better understood. METHODS: Based on the Joanna Briggs Institute guidelines, a scoping review was conducted to map the current evidence regarding the use of medical cannabis in oncological settings based on the experiences of patients diagnosed with cancer and their healthcare providers. A searc

The microbiota-gut-brain-axis theory: role of gut microbiota modulators (GMMs) in gastrointestinal, neurological, and mental health disorders.

The modulation of gut microbiota presents promising therapeutic possibilities for various health conditions, ranging from gastrointestinal infections to neurodegenerative and mental health disorders. Among the available interventions, gut microbiota modulators (GMMs) such as probiotics and prebiotics have demonstrated significant potential in infection prevention and neuroprotection. Despite these encouraging findings, the clinical application of GMMs remains challenging due to safety concerns and inconsistent effectiveness across diverse patient populations. These factors create substantial b

Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway: proteins' roles in osteoporosis and cancer diseases and the regulatory effects of natural compounds on osteoporosis.

Osteoblasts are mainly derived from mesenchymal stem cells in the bone marrow. These stem cells can differentiate into osteoblasts, which have the functions of secreting bone matrix, promoting bone formation, and participating in bone remodeling. The abnormality of osteoblasts can cause a variety of bone-related diseases, including osteoporosis, delayed fracture healing, and skeletal deformities. In recent years, with the side effects caused by the application of PTH drugs, biphosphonate drugs, and calmodulin drugs, people have carried out more in-depth research on the mechanism of osteoblast

Analgesic Alkaloids Derived From Traditional Chinese Medicine in Pain Management.

Chronic pain is one of the most prevalent health problems. The establishment of chronic pain is complex. Current medication for chronic pain mainly dependent on anticonvulsants, tricyclic antidepressants and opioidergic drugs. However, they have limited therapeutic efficacy, and some even with severe side effects. We turned our interest into alkaloids separated from traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), that usually act on multiple drug targets. In this article, we introduced the best-studied analgesic alkaloids derived from TCM, including tetrahydropalmatine, aloperine, oxysophocarpine, matrine

A review on Gaucher disease: therapeutic potential of β-glucocerebrosidase-targeted mRNA/saRNA approach.

Gaucher disease (GD), a rare hereditary lysosomal storage disorder, occurs due to a deficiency in the enzyme β-glucocerebrosidase (GCase). This deficiency leads to the buildup of substrate glucosylceramide (GlcCer) in macrophages, eventually resulting in various complications. Among its three types, GD2 is particularly severe with neurological involvements. Current treatments, such as enzyme replacement therapy (ERT), are not effective for GD2 and GD3 due to their inability to cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB). Other treatment approaches, such as gene or chaperone therapies are still in expe

Peripheral Neuropathy under Oncologic Therapies: A Literature Review on Pathogenetic Mechanisms.

Peripheral neurologic complications are frequent adverse events during oncologic treatments and often lead to dose reduction, administration delays with time elongation of the therapeutic plan and, not least, worsening of patients' quality of life. Experience skills are required to recognize symptoms and clinical evidences and the collaboration between different health professionals, in particular oncologists and hospital pharmacists, grants a correct management of this undesirable occurrence. Some classes of drugs (platinates, vinca alkaloids, taxanes) typically develop this kind of side effe

Targeting the P-selectin/PSGL-1 pathway: discovery of disease-modifying therapeutics for disorders of thromboinflammation.

P-selectin is a membrane glycoprotein and a member of the selectin family of cell adhesion molecules. It is prestored in α-granules of platelets and Weibel-Palade bodies of endothelial cells and is rapidly expressed on their surfaces upon activation during the course of an inflammatory response. Although a critical component of the innate immune system, the interaction of P-selectin with its cognate ligand, P-selectin glycoprotein ligand 1 (PSGL-1) may mediate maladaptive events central to the pathophysiology of venous thromboembolism, cardiovascular disease, stroke, metabolic syndrome, and si

Oroxylin A: A Promising Flavonoid for Prevention and Treatment of Chronic Diseases.

There have been magnificent advancements in the understanding of molecular mechanisms of chronic diseases over the past several years, but these diseases continue to be a considerable cause of death worldwide. Most of the approved medications available for the prevention and treatment of these diseases target only a single gene/protein/pathway and are known to cause severe side effects and are less effective than they are anticipated. Consequently, the development of finer therapeutics that outshine the existing ones is far-reaching. Natural compounds have enormous applications in curbing seve
