GSE263394 Dolutegravir induces FOLR1 expression during brain organoid development.
Contributors : Daniel Kraushaar ; Carlo Donato Caiaffa ; Robert M CabreraSeries Type : Expression profiling by high throughput sequencingOrganism : Homo sapiensThe brain and spinal cord are formed during neurulation, a developmental process that occurs during the first month of pregnancy and can be modified by low serum levels of folic acid (FA), environmental factors, or genetic predispositions. In 2018, data from a surveillance study in Botswana, a country with one of the highest incidences of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and lacking mandatory food folate fortification programs, revealed an increased risk of neur...

Advances in sarcopenia: mechanisms, therapeutic targets, and intervention strategies
Arch Pharm Res. 2024 Apr 9. doi: 10.1007/s12272-024-01493-2. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTSarcopenia is a multifactorial condition characterized by loss of muscle mass. It poses significant health risks in older adults worldwide. Both pharmacological and non-pharmacological approaches are reported to address this disease. Certain dietary patterns, such as adequate energy intake and essential amino acids, have shown positive outcomes in preserving muscle function. Various medications, including myostatin inhibitors, growth hormones, and activin type II receptor inhibitors, have been evaluated for their effectiveness in man...

In an effort to move away from considering the maximum tolerated dose as the optimal dose, the Food and Drug Administration Project Optimus points to the need of incorporating long-term toxicity evaluation, given that many of these novel agents lead to late-onset or cumulative toxicities and there are no guidelines on how to handle them.

Clinical Trials of T-Cell Re-Directing Therapy in Plasma Cell Precursor Conditions
The use of T-cell re-directing therapy in multiple myeloma (MM) is promising. [1] Two chimeric antigen T cell receptor therapy (CAR-T) products: idecabtagene vicleucel (ide-cel) and ciltacabtagene autoleucel (cilta-cel) and three bispecific antibodies (BsAbs): (Teclistamab-cqyv, Talquetamab-tgvs, and Elranatamab-bcmm) are currently approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to use in relapsed/refractory (R/R) MM after receiving four or more prior lines of therapy.
