Role of circular RNAs in cancer therapy resistance.

Over the past decade, circular RNAs (circRNAs) have gained recognition as a novel class of genetic molecules, many of which are implicated in cancer pathogenesis via different mechanisms, including drug resistance, immune escape, and radio-resistance. ExosomalcircRNAs, in particular, facilitatecommunication between tumour cells and micro-environmental cells, including immune cells, fibroblasts, and other components. Notably, micro-environmental cells can reportedly influence tumour progression and treatment resistance by releasing exosomalcircRNAs. circRNAs often exhibit tissue- and cancer-spe

Obesity as a Multifactorial Chronic Disease: Molecular Mechanisms, Systemic Impact, and Emerging Digital Interventions.

Obesity is a multifactorial chronic disease resulting from complex genetic, molecular, environmental, and behavioral interactions. Its prevalence rises worldwide, affecting cardiovascular, metabolic, oncological, hepatic, respiratory, and skeletal health. Beyond caloric excess, genetic predisposition, epigenetic modifications, gut microbiota dysbiosis, endocrine-disrupting agents, circadian misalignment, and intergenerational and prenatal influences are critical determinants of obesity risk. Core pathophysiological mechanisms include insulin resistance, dyslipidemia, chronic low-grade inflamma

Molecular and cellular mechanisms of skeletal muscle atrophy: an update.

Skeletal muscle atrophy is defined as a decrease in muscle mass and it occurs when protein degradation exceeds protein synthesis. Potential triggers of muscle wasting are long-term immobilization, malnutrition, severe burns, aging as well as various serious and often chronic diseases, such as chronic heart failure, obstructive lung disease, renal failure, AIDS, sepsis, immune disorders, cancer, and dystrophies. Interestingly, a cooperation between several pathophysiological factors, including inappropriately adapted anabolic (e.g., growth hormone, insulin-like growth factor 1) and catabolic pr

Review: Oncolytic virotherapy, updates and future directions.

Oncolytic viruses (OVs) are viral strains that can infect and kill malignant cells while spare their normal counterparts. OVs can access cells through binding to receptors on their surface or through fusion with the plasma membrane and establish a lytic cycle in tumors, while leaving normal tissue essentially unharmed. Multiple viruses have been investigated in humans for the past century. IMLYGIC™ (T-VEC/Talimogene Laherparepvec), a genetically engineered Herpes Simplex Virus, is the first OV approved for use in the United States and the European Union for patients with locally advanced or no

Sensitization of Non-M3 Acute Myeloid Leukemia Blasts to All-Trans Retinoic Acid by the LSD1 Inhibitor Tranylcypromine: TRANSATRA Phase I Study.

The treatment of elderly, nonfit acute myeloid leukemia (AML)/MDS patients with relapsed/refractory (R/R) disease remains challenging. As histone demethylase LSD1 (KDM1A) is a rational therapeutic target in AML, we conducted a phase I trial ("rolling-six design") with the LSD1 inhibitor tranylcypromine (TCP, dose levels [DL] 20, 40, 60, 80 mg p.o. d1-28) combined with fixed-dose ATRA (45 mg/m2 p.o. d10-28) and low-dose cytarabine (LDAC, 40 mg s.c. d1-10). The primary endpoint was dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) in the first 28 days of treatment. The aim was the determination of the maximum tolera

Updated analysis of CALGB (Alliance) 100104 assessing lenalidomide versus placebo maintenance after single autologous stem-cell transplantation for multiple myeloma: a randomised, double-blind, phase 3 trial.

BackgroundIn the CALGB (Alliance) 100104 study, lenalidomide versus placebo after autologous stem-cell transplantation (ASCT) was investigated for patients with newly diagnosed myeloma. That study showed improved time to progression and overall survival and an increase in second primary malignancies for lenalidomide at a median follow-up of 34 months. Here we report an updated intention-to-treat analysis of CALGB (Alliance) 100104 at a median follow-up of 91 months.MethodsPatients were eligible for this randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 3 trial if they had symptomatic disease

Предлагаемый рабочий поток для тщательного анализа бактериальных стенограмм в данных RNAseq из внеклеточных везеиклов.

ВВЕДЕНИЕ: Микробиота однозначно связана с различными заболеваниями, однако механизмы, лежащие в основе этих ассоциаций, по-прежнему недостаточно изучены. Одним из потенциальных факторов, способствующих этой взаимосвязи, являются внеклеточные везикли, образующиеся бактериями (БЭМ). Однако обнаружение этих БЭМ сопряжено с трудностями. Поэтому мы предлагаем новый рабочий процесс для выявления бактериальной РНК, присутствующей в циркулирующих внеклеточных везиклах с использованием данных Total EV RNA-seq. В качестве доказательства концепции мы применили этот рабочий поток к набору данных от лиц с

The Current Landscape of Secondary Malignancies after CAR T-Cell Therapies: How Could Malignancies Be Prevented?

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapies have revolutionised the field of haematological malignancies by achieving impressive remission rates in patients with highly refractory haematological malignancies, improving overall survival. To date, six commercial anti-CD19 and anti-BCMA CAR T-cell products have been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of relapsed/refractory B-cell haematological malignancies and multiple myeloma. The indications for CAR T-cell therapies are gradually expanding, with these therapies being investigated in a variety of diseases,

Anakinra: efficacy in the management of fever during neutropenia and mucositis in autologous stem cell transplantation (AFFECT-2)-study protocol for a multicenter randomized double-blind placebo-controlled trial.

BACKGROUND: Since decades, fever and infections have been the most important complications of intensive chemotherapy and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) in the treatment of hematologic malignancies. Neutropenia has long been considered to be the most important risk factor for these complications. However, recent studies have shown that not neutropenia, but the development of mucositis is the most important cause of these complications. Currently, limited options for the prevention and treatment of mucositis are available, of which most are only supportive. The pro-inflammatory c

Using the precise targeting mechanisms and the rapid advancements in nanoscale materials, nanomedicine is driving progress in cancer therapy, particularly within the complex landscape of the tumor immune microenvironment (TIM). This review provides a comprehensive overview of recent studies elucidating the critical role of nanomedicine in modulating the TIM, augmenting the efficacy of immunotherapies, and overcoming therapeutic resistance. Emphasis is placed on the significance of targeted drug deli

The role of MSCs and CAR-MSCs in cellular immunotherapy.

Chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) are widely used by T cells (CAR-T cells), natural killer cells dendritic cells and macrophages, and they are of great importance in cellular immunotherapy. However, the use of CAR-related products faces several challenges, including the poor persistence of cells carrying CARs, cell dysfunction or exhaustion, relapse of disease, immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome, cytokine release syndrome, low efficacy against solid tumors and immunosuppression by the tumor microenvironment. Another important cell therapy regimen involves mesenchymal stem c

Блокирование мозга крови (ББД) представляет собой огромную проблему в нейрофармакологии, ограничивая доставку терапевтических агентов в мозг. Экзосомы, нанокарьеры природы, стали многообещающим решением из-за их биосовместимости, низкой иммуногенности и врожденной способности пересекать ББД. Тщательное изучение анатомии и физиологии ББД свидетельствует о сложности доставки неврологических наркотиков и подчеркивает ограниченность традиционных методов. В настоящем обзоре изучается потенциал нейрофармацевтики с экзосомной силой, при этом особое внимание уделяется их структурным и функциональным с

Демиелинция производит сдвиг в населении кортикальных нейронов, которые синапсируют с каллосальными олигодендроцитными клетками.

Клетки потомства олигодендроцитов (ОРК) получают синаптическое воздействие от различных нейронов в мозгу развивающихся и взрослых. Понимание того, меняются ли нейронные популяции, которые синапируют с OPC в здоровом мозге в результате обезвоживания и/или ремиэлирования, может способствовать совершенствованию стратегий нейрозащиты или миелинового ремонта, разрабатываемых для демиелинизирующих заболеваний, таких, как множественный склероз. Чтобы изучить эту возможность, мы использовали трансгенную технологию крелокса, чтобы облегчить инфекцию ОПС модифицированным вирусом бешенства, что позволяет

Pediatric Drug Development: Reviewing Challenges and Opportunities by Tracking Innovative Therapies.

The paradigm of pediatric drug development has been evolving in a "carrot-and-stick"-based tactic to address population-specific issues. However, the off-label prescription of adult medicines to pediatric patients remains a feature of clinical practice, which may compromise the age-appropriate evaluation of treatments. Therefore, the United States and the European Pediatric Formulation Initiative have recommended applying nanotechnology-based delivery systems to tackle some of these challenges, particularly applying inorganic, polymeric, and lipid-based nanoparticles. Connected with these, adv

Breaking into HIV-1's Epigenetic Vault: Cure Strategies to Eliminate the Viral Reservoir.

Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) is a retrovirus that integrates into the host cell's DNA as a provirus. Transcription from the provirus is regulated in large part by cellular proteins and epigenetic factors. These may be repressive or permissive to productive infection. The host factors that regulate this balance are therefore attractive targets for HIV-1 therapeutics. Indeed, proviral chromatin is the focus of two of the current HIV-1 cure strategies. "Shock and Kill" uses latency reversal agents to open the provirus's chromatin, promoting high levels of gene expression that induc

Cancer Vaccines for Triple-Negative Breast Cancer: A Systematic Review.

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the subtype of breast cancer with the poorest outcomes, and is associated with a high risk of relapse and metastasis. The treatment choices for this malignancy have been confined to conventional chemotherapeutic agents, due to a lack of expression of the canonical molecular targets. Immunotherapy has been recently changing the treatment paradigm for many types of tumors, and the approach of evoking active immune responses in the milieu of breast tumors through cancer vaccines has been introduced as one of the most novel immunotherapeutic approaches.
