Despite the wide application of radiotherapy in HCC, radiotherapy efficacy is sometimes limited due to radioresistance. Although radioresistance is reported with high glycolysis, the underlying mechanism between radioresistance and cancer metabolism,...
Hyperphosphorylation of the calcium release channel/ryanodine receptor type 2 (RyR2) at serine 2814 (S2814) is associated with multiple cardiac diseases including atrial fibrillation and heart failure. Despite recent advances, the molecular mechanism...
It is known that circulating DNA (cirDNA) is protected from nuclease activity by proteins that form macromolecular complexes with DNA. In addition, it was previously shown that cirDNA can bind to the outer surface of exosomes. NTA analysis and real-t...
Artificial intelligence (AI) is a branch of computer science dedicated to giving machines or computers the ability to perform human-like cognitive functions, such as learning, problem-solving, and decision making. Since it is showing superior perform...
Reactive oxygen species (ROS), a by-product of aerobic life, are highly reactive molecules with unpaired electrons. The excess of ROS leads to oxidative stress, instigating the peroxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) in the lipid membrane...
The RTgill-W1 cell line serves as an alternative for acute fish toxicity testing. This study aims to study the reliability of the RTgill-W1 cell line in copper cytotoxicity using transcriptomic analysis followed by comparison with existing literature...
Uveal melanoma (UM) is an ocular tumor with a dismal prognosis. Despite the availability of precise molecular and cytogenetic techniques, clinicopathologic features with limited accuracy are widely used to predict metastatic potential. In 51 UM tissu...
Curcumin, a major phytochemical derived from Curcuma longa, has been shown to enhance the efficacy of chemotherapeutic agents such as doxorubicin, 5-fluorouracil, and cisplatin by overcoming drug resistance, making it a promising adjunct in the treat...
Of breast cancers, the triple-negative subtype (TNBC) is characterized by aggressive behavior, poor prognosis and limited treatment options due to its high molecular heterogeneity. Since insufficient programmed cell death response is a major hallmark...
Adipose tissue exhibits dynamic metabolic and structural changes in response to environmental stimuli, including temperature fluctuations. While continuous cold exposure has been extensively studied, the molecular effects of prolonged intermittent co...
Cholangiocellular carcinoma (CCA) is the second most common primary liver cancer, with increasing incidence worldwide and inadequate therapeutic options. Intra- and extrahepatic bile ducts have distinctly different embryonic origins and developmental...
Targeted therapies are reshaping oncology by enabling treatment selection based on actionable molecular alterations, improving precision, and reducing unnecessary toxicity. This review provides an up-to-date overview of current targeted treatment mod...
The oncogenic potential of both the polyomavirus large (LT-Ag) and small (Sm t-Ag) tumor antigens has been previously demonstrated in both tissue culture and animal models. Even the contribution of the MCPyV tumor antigens to the development of an ag...
Doxorubicin (Dox) is one of the most widely used treatments for breast cancer, although limited by the well-documented cardiotoxicity and other off-target effects. Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) secretome has shown immunomodulatory and regenerative prop...
Background/Objectives: Ferroptosis, an iron-dependent form of regulated cell death defined by lipid peroxidation, has been extensively studied in cancer and neurodegeneration, but its contribution to erythropoiesis remains poorly understood. Methods:...
Proteasome inhibition is associated with parkinsonian pathology in vivo and degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in vitro. We explored here the metabolome (386 metabolites) and transcriptome (3257 transcripts) regulations of human LUHMES neurons, fol...
Tacrolimus (TAC) nephropathy is a major complication of immunosuppressive therapy and contributes to chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression through ischemia, metabolic dysfunction, and oxidative stress; however, its protein-level basis remains uncl...
Atherosclerosis, the leading cause of death worldwide, is a chronic inflammatory disease leading to the accumulation of lipid-rich plaques within the artery wall. Accumulating evidence indicates that intestinal microbiota plays an important regulator...
Background/Objectives: Urothelial bladder carcinoma (UBC) is one of the most prevalent malignancies worldwide, and efforts have intensified to identify molecular markers that improve the prognosis and reduce treatment costs. Among the regulators of t...
Background: Ovarian aging is characterized by the accumulation of free radicals, leading to tissue damage and affecting reproductive health. Intravascular laser irradiation of blood (ILIB, using a low-energy He-Ne laser) is known for its efficacy in...
