Post-Translational Modifications in Atopic Dermatitis: Current Research and Clinical Relevance.

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic and relapsing cutaneous disorder characterized by compromised immune system, excessive inflammation, and skin barrier disruption. Post-translational modifications (PTMs) are covalent and enzymatic modifications of proteins after their translation, which have been reported to play roles in inflammatory and allergic diseases. However, less attention has been paid to the effect of PTMs on AD. This review summarized the knowledge of six major classes (including phosphorylation, acetylation, ubiquitination, SUMOylation, glycosylation, o-glycosylation, and glycati

The Role of Inflammation in Tinnitus: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Subjective tinnitus is the perception of sound without the presence of an external source. Increasing evidence suggests that tinnitus is associated with inflammation. In this systematic review, the role of inflammation in subjective tinnitus was studied. Nine animal and twenty human studies reporting inflammatory markers in both humans and animals with tinnitus were included. It was established that TNF-α and IL-1β are increased in tinnitus, and that microglia and astrocytes are activated as well. Moreover, platelet activation may also play a role in tinnitus. In addition, we elaborate on mech

The proposed expert opinion aimed to address the current knowledge on conceptual, clinical, and therapeutic aspects of diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) and to provide a guidance document to assist clinicians for the best practice in DPN care. The participating experts consider the suspicion of the disease by clinicians as a key factor in early recognition and diagnosis, emphasizing an improved awareness of the disease by the first-admission or referring physicians. The proposed "screening and diagnostic" algorithm involves the consideration of DPN in a patient with prediabetes or diabetes

The Role of Natural Killer Cells in Soft Tissue Sarcoma: Prospects for Immunotherapy.

Soft-tissue sarcomas (STS) represent about 80% of sarcomas, and are a heterogeneous group of rare and malignant tumors. STS arise from mesenchymal tissues and can grow into structures such as adipose tissue, muscles, nervous tissue and blood vessels. Morphological evaluation has been the standard model for the diagnosis of sarcomas, and even in samples with similar characteristics, they present a diversity in cytogenetic and genetic sequence alterations, which further increases the diversity of sarcomas. This variety is one of the main challenges for the classification and understanding of STS

The Cancer Antioxidant Regulation System in Therapeutic Resistance.

Antioxidants play a pivotal role in neutralizing reactive oxygen species (ROS), which are known to induce oxidative stress. In the context of cancer development, cancer cells adeptly maintain elevated levels of both ROS and antioxidants through a process termed "redox reprogramming". This balance optimizes the proliferative influence of ROS while simultaneously reducing the potential for ROS to cause damage to the cell. In some cases, the adapted antioxidant machinery can hamper the efficacy of treatments for neoplastic diseases, representing a significant facet of the resistance mechanisms ob

Pulmonary hypertension and the potential of 'drug' repurposing: A case for African medicinal plants.

AbstractPulmonary hypertension (PH) is a haemodynamic disorder in which elevated blood pressure in the pulmonary circulation is caused by abnormal vascular tone. Despite advances in treatment, PH mortality remains high, and drug repurposing has been proposed as a mitigating approach. This article reviews the studies that have investigated drug repurposing as a viable option for PH. We provide an overview of PH and highlight pharmaceutical drugs with repurposing potential, based on limited evidence of their mechanisms of action. Moreover, studies have demonstrated the benefits of medicinal plan

Reprogramming of nitrogen metabolism in tumors: mechanisms and therapeutic implications.

Nitrogen metabolism plays a key role in maintaining normal physiological functions of the organism and cell proliferation and differentiation. Nitrogen metabolism in normal human body maintains a dynamic balance to meet the body's demand for synthesis of biological macromolecules such as proteins and nucleic acids. However, in the process of tumor development, the nitrogen metabolism of tumor cells is reprogrammed to meet the demand of rapid proliferation, showing significantly different metabolic characteristics from normal cells. Key enzymes in the tumor microenvironment affect nitrogen meta

Cytotoxic CD4+ T cells: origin, biological functions, diseases and therapeutic targets.

Cytotoxic CD4+ T lymphocytes are a unique subset of CD4+ T cells characterized by their cytokine secretion and cytolytic activity. Unlike traditional CD4+ helper T cells, cytotoxic CD4+ T lymphocytes exhibit similar cytotoxicity to that of CD8+ T cells, revealing unexpected plasticity in CD4+ T-cell functions. This flexibility suggests that CD4+ T cells can transform and acquire effector functions beyond their conventional functions, emphasizing their importance in various immune responses. Despite the identification of cytotoxic CD4+ T lymphocytes decades ago, recent advancements have broaden

B Cells and Antibodies as Targets of Therapeutic Intervention in Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorders.

The first description of neuromyelitis optica by Eugène Devic and Fernand Gault dates back to the 19th century, but only the discovery of aquaporin-4 autoantibodies in a major subset of affected patients in 2004 led to a fundamentally revised disease concept: Neuromyelits optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD) are now considered autoantibody-mediated autoimmune diseases, bringing the pivotal pathogenetic role of B cells and plasma cells into focus. Not long ago, there was no approved medication for this deleterious disease and off-label therapies were the only treatment options for affected patient

Antibody-Drug Conjugates in Contemporary Oncology: A Clinical Perspective on Dose Optimization, Sequencing, and Combination Strategies.

Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) have matured from a technically challenging concept into an established therapeutic platform across hematologic and solid malignancies. By linking a monoclonal antibody to a potent cytotoxic payload, ADCs seek to increase tumor-directed drug delivery while limiting systemic exposure; however, clinical performance depends on much more than target expression. Target accessibility, antigen density and heterogeneity, internalization, intracellular trafficking, linker stability, payload properties, drug-to-antibody ratio, bystander effect, tumor penetration, and host

Ремонт тканей в центральной нервной системе: эпигенетическое программирование регуляторных Т клеток.

Регулирующие Т клетки хорошо известны своей иммуномодуляционной ролью, но также их регенеративная функция все чаще признается в различных типах тканей, включая скелетные мышцы, легкие и центральную нервную систему (ЦНС). В CNS Tregs, как было показано, поощряют дифференциацию олигодендроцитов в прекурсорных клетках, и их взаимодействие с микроглией поддерживает стимулирующую регенеративную микроокружную среду в мозгу. Подавляющая функция Tregs в значительной степени зависит от эпигенетической сигнатуры, в частности метилации ДНК, определенной сети связанных с Treg генов, включая FOXP3, CTLA4,
