- High endothelial venules predict response to PD-1 inhibitors combined with anti-angiogenesis therapy in NSCLC Sat, 30 Sep 2023 06:00:00 -0400
Tumor-associated high endothelial venules (TA-HEVs) mediate lymphocyte entry into tumors. Therefore, combined anti-angiogenesis therapy and programmed death-1 (PD-1) inhibitors might stimulate tumor immunity. This study will explore the TA-HEVs and real-world data of the combination therapy in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Firstly, we found a certain relationship between HEVs and immune effector cells by multiple immunofluorescence staining. We then analyzed the efficacy of immunotherapy... - Identification of m6A suppressor EIF4A3 as a novel cancer prognostic and immunotherapy biomarker through bladder cancer clinical data validation and pan-cancer analysis Sat, 30 Sep 2023 06:00:00 -0400
EIF4A3 represents a novel m6A suppressor that exerts control over the global m6A mRNA modification level, therefore influencing gene destiny. Despite increasing evidence that highlights a pivotal role of EIF4A3 in tumor progression and immunity, a comprehensive pan-cancer analysis of EIF4A3 has yet to be conducted, in order to ascertain whether EIF4A3 could be a viable biomarker for cancer screening, prediction of prognosis, and to facilitate accurate therapy design in various human... - Crotonylated BEX2 interacts with NDP52 and enhances mitophagy to modulate chemotherapeutic agent-induced apoptosis in non-small-cell lung cancer cells Sat, 30 Sep 2023 06:00:00 -0400
Brain expressed X-linked gene 2 (BEX2) encoded protein was originally identified to promote transcription by interacting with several transcription factors in the DNA-binding complexes. Recently, BEX2 was found to be localized in cytosol and/or mitochondria and regulate apoptosis in cancer cells and tumor growth. However, the molecular mechanism underlying its roles in cancer cells remains unclear. Here, we report that crotonylated BEX2 plays an important role in inhibiting chemotherapeutic... - Dendrimer nanotherapy targeting of glial dysfunction improves inflammation and neurobehavioral phenotype in adult female Mecp2-heterozygous mouse model of Rett syndrome Sat, 30 Sep 2023 06:00:00 -0400
Rett syndrome is an X-linked neurodevelopmental disorder caused by mutation of Mecp2 gene and primarily affects females. Glial cell dysfunction has been implicated in in Rett syndrome (RTT) both in patients and in mouse models of this disorder and can affect synaptogenesis, glial metabolism and inflammation. Here we assessed whether treatment of adult (5-6 months old) symptomatic Mecp2-heterozygous female mice with N-acetyl cysteine conjugated to dendrimer (D-NAC), which is known to target glia... - Fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 mutation attenuates response to immune checkpoint blockade in metastatic urothelial carcinoma by driving immunosuppressive microenvironment Sat, 30 Sep 2023 06:00:00 -0400
CONCLUSIONS: FGFR3 mutation can attenuate prognosis and response to ICB in patients with metastatic UC. FGFR3-mutated UC carries a stronger immunosuppressive microenvironment in comparison with FGFR3-wildtype UC. Inhibition of FGFR3 might activate the immune microenvironment, and the combination of FGFR inhibitor targeted therapy and ICB might be a promising therapeutic regimen in metastatic UC, providing important implications for UC clinical management. - Lupeol, an androgen receptor inhibitor, enhances the chemosensitivity of prostate cancer stem cells to antiandrogen enzalutamide-based therapy Sat, 30 Sep 2023 06:00:00 -0400

However, due to the potential toxicity and development of resistance associated with Enzalutamide-based therapy, there is a need to explore additional compounds that can enhance its therapeutic effectiveness while minimizing toxicity. Lupeol is a pharmacologically active triterpene having anticancer effects. The objective of this study was to explore Lupeol's potential in enhancing the... - Second-trimester medical abortion after exposure to lorlatinib during early pregnancy, a case report Sat, 30 Sep 2023 06:00:00 -0400
Use of Lorlatinib, a third-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitor currently indicated in the treatment of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with ALK or ROS1 gene fusion, is formally contra-indicated during pregnancy due to teratogenic effects observed during pre-clinical studies. We report the case of a 38-year-old woman with a ROS1-positive NSCLC, successfully treated with lorlatinib as second line therapy, who became pregnant while on treatment. Due to significant disease progression 12 weeks... - Unveiling the potential mechanisms of Amomi fructus against gastric ulcers via integrating network pharmacology and in vivo experiments Sat, 30 Sep 2023 06:00:00 -0400
CONCLUSION: According to preliminary findings from this work, A. fructus may influence inflammatory response and apoptosis via regulating the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway and associated gene targets. Importantly, our research might offer a theoretical foundation for future research into the intricate anti-GU mechanism of A. fructus. - An AsCas12f-based compact genome-editing tool derived by deep mutational scanning and structural analysis Sat, 30 Sep 2023 06:00:00 -0400
SpCas9 and AsCas12a are widely utilized as genome-editing tools in human cells. However, their relatively large size poses a limitation for delivery by cargo-size-limited adeno-associated virus (AAV) vectors. The type V-F Cas12f from Acidibacillus sulfuroxidans is exceptionally compact (422 amino acids) and has been harnessed as a compact genome-editing tool. Here, we developed an approach, combining deep mutational scanning and structure-informed design, to successfully generate two AsCas12f... - Patient and Caregiver Outcomes After Onasemnogene Abeparvovec Treatment: Findings from the Cure SMA 2021 Membership Survey Sat, 30 Sep 2023 06:00:00 -0400
CONCLUSIONS: The study suggests that treatment with OA is associated with greater rates of motor milestone achievements and less resource and supportive care use for patients with SMA treated at 6-23 months of age in the real world. For caregivers, it may also potentially reduce unmet needs, improve HRQOL, and reduce work impairment. - Screening of Phytocompounds for Identification of Prospective Histone Deacetylase 1 (HDAC1) Inhibitor: An In Silico Molecular Docking, Molecular Dynamics Simulation, and MM-GBSA Approach Sat, 30 Sep 2023 06:00:00 -0400
The upregulation of HDAC1 facilitate the induction of epigenetic repression of genes responsible for suppressing tumourigenesis, thereby triggering the development of cancer. HDAC1 inhibitors have thus emerged as possible therapeutic approaches against a variety of human malignancies, as they can inhibit the activity of certain HDACs, repair the overexpression of tumour suppressor genes, and induce cell differentiation, cell cycle arrest, and apoptosis. In this study, among 810 virtually... - MicroRNAs and colorectal cancer: clinical potential and regulatory networks Sat, 30 Sep 2023 06:00:00 -0400
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a serious global health concern, with a high incidence and mortality rate. Although there have been advancements in the early detection and treatment of CRC, therapy resistance is common. MicroRNAs (miRNAs), a type of small non-coding RNA that regulates gene expression, are key players in the initiation and progression of CRC. Recently, there has been growing attention to the complex interplay of miRNAs in cancer development. miRNAs are powerful RNA molecules that... - Baseline expression of immune gene modules in blood is associated with primary response to anti-TNF therapy in Crohn's disease patients Sat, 30 Sep 2023 06:00:00 -0400
CONCLUSIONS: Baseline gene module expression was associated with primary response to anti-TNF therapy in PANTS patients. However, these baseline expression differences did not predict response with sufficient sensitivity for clinical use. - Identification of immune-related hub genes and construction of an immune-related gene prognostic index for low-grade glioma Sat, 30 Sep 2023 06:00:00 -0400
Low-grade glioma (LGG) poses significant management challenges and has a dismal prognosis. While immunotherapy has shown significant promise in cancer treatment, its progress in glioma has confronted with challenges. In our study, we aimed to develop an immune-related gene prognostic index (IRGPI) which could be used to evaluate the response and efficacy of LGG patients with immunotherapy. We included a total of 529 LGG samples from TCGA database and 1152 normal brain tissue samples from the... - Gene and Photothermal Combination Therapy: Principle, Materials, and Amplified Anticancer Intervention Sat, 30 Sep 2023 06:00:00 -0400
Gene therapy (GT) and photothermal therapy (PTT) have emerged as promising alternatives to chemotherapy and radiotherapy for cancer treatment, offering noninvasiveness and reduced side effects. However, their efficacy as standalone treatments is limited. GT exhibits slow response rates, while PTT is confined to local tumor ablation. The convergence of GT and PTT, known as GT-PTT, facilitated by photothermal gene nanocarriers, has attracted considerable attention across various disciplines. In... - Constructing Nucleic Acid Delivering Lipoproteoplexes from Coiled-Coil Supercharged Protein and Cationic Liposomes Fri, 29 Sep 2023 06:00:00 -0400
The safe and efficient delivery of nucleic acids is crucial for both clinical applications of gene therapy and pre-clinical laboratory research. Such delivery strategies rely on vectors to condense nucleic acid payloads and escort them into the cell without being degraded in the extracellular environment; however, the construction and utilization of these vectors can be difficult and time-consuming. Here, we detail the steps involved in the rapid, laboratory-scale production and assessment of a... - Formulation of Chitosan-Zein Nano-in-Microparticles for Oral DNA Delivery Fri, 29 Sep 2023 06:00:00 -0400

The noninvasive nature of oral delivery lends to ease of dosing, which can facilitate convenience and patient compliance. Moreover, oral administration allows for both local and systemic production of therapeutic genes or, in the case of DNA vaccination, mucosal and systemic immunity. Here, we describe the methods to produce a dual biomaterial, oral DNA delivery system... - Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition in cancer progression: unraveling the immunosuppressive module driving therapy resistance Fri, 29 Sep 2023 06:00:00 -0400
Cancer cells undergo phenotypic switching (cancer cell plasticity) in response to microenvironmental cues, including exposure to therapy/treatment. Phenotypic plasticity enables the cancer cells to acquire more mesenchymal traits promoting cancer cells' growth, survival, therapy resistance, and disease recurrence. A significant program in cancer cell plasticity is epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT), wherein a comprehensive reprogramming of gene expression occurs to facilitate the... - Standards for the care of people with cystic fibrosis (CF): A timely and accurate diagnosis Fri, 29 Sep 2023 06:00:00 -0400
There is considerable activity with respect to diagnosis in the field of cystic fibrosis (CF). This relates primarily to developments in newborn bloodspot screening (NBS), more extensive gene analysis and improved characterisation of CFTR-related disorder (CFTR-RD). This is particularly pertinent with respect to accessibility to variant-specific therapy (VST), a transformational intervention for people with CF with eligible CFTR gene variants. This advance reinforces the need for a timely and... - Gonadal sex vs genetic sex in experimental atherosclerosis Fri, 29 Sep 2023 06:00:00 -0400
Epidemiological data and interventional studies with hormone replacement therapy suggest that women, at least until menopause, are at decreased cardiovascular risk compared to men. Still the molecular mechanisms beyond this difference are debated and the investigation in experimental models of atherosclerosis has been pivotal to prove that the activation of the estrogen receptor is atheroprotective, despite not enough to explain the differences reported in cardiovascular disease between male and...
