Coordination environment dependence of anticancer activity in cyclometalated bismuth(III) complexes with C,O-chelating ligands
J Inorg Biochem. 2024 Apr 21;256:112571. doi: 10.1016/j.jinorgbio.2024.112571. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIn this paper, a series of cyclometalated bismuth(III) complexes bearing C,O-bidentate ligands were synthesized and characterized by techniques such as UV-vis, NMR, HRMS, and single crystal X-ray diffraction. Meanwhile, their cytotoxicities against various human cell lines, including colon cancer cells (HCT-116), breast cancer cells (MDA-MB-231), lung cancer cells (A549), gastric cancer cells (SGC-7901), and normal embryonic kidney cells (HEK-293) were assessed in vitro. Compared with the clinical cisplatin, most of...

Role of Filamin A in Growth and Migration of Breast Cancer-Review
Curr Issues Mol Biol. 2024 Apr 17;46(4):3408-3423. doi: 10.3390/cimb46040214.ABSTRACTDespite ongoing research in the field of breast cancer, the morbidity rates indicate that the disease remains a significant challenge. While patients with primary tumors have relatively high survival rates, these chances significantly decrease once metastasis begins. Thus, exploring alternative approaches, such as targeting proteins overexpressed in malignancies, remains significant. Filamin A (FLNa), an actin-binding protein (ABP), is involved in various cellular processes, including cell migration, adhesion, proliferation, and DNA repair...

Selenochemical modification of low molecular weight polysaccharides from Grifola frondosa and the mechanism of their inhibitory effects on gastric cancer cells
In this study, Se-LMW-GFP was prepared by the HNO3-Na2SeO3 method, and the structures of LMW-GFP and Se-LMW-GFP were characterized by UV-visible spectroscopy of absorption, FTIR spectroscopy, and electron scanning microscopy, and these structural analyses showed that selenium was successfully complexed to LMW-GFP. The selenium content of Se-LMW-GFP was measured to be 2.08 % ± 0.08 % by ICP-MS. The anti-tumor activity of LMW-GFP before and after selenium modification was compared by cellular experiments, and the findings indicated that the anti-tumor activity of Se-LMW-GFP was considerably improved over that of LMW-GFP, an...

Agreements between GLIM using left calf circumference as criterion for reduced muscle mass and PG-SGA, and GLIM using ASMI for the diagnosis of malnutrition in gastric cancer patients
CONCLUSION: the agreements were both acceptable between GLIM using left CC and PG-SGA, and GLIM using ASMI. Left calf circumference can be one of the credible references indicating a reduced muscle mass in patients with gastric cancer.PMID:38666329 | DOI:10.20960/nh.05024 (Source: Nutricion Hospitalaria)

Creatinine-to-cystatin C ratio and body composition predict response to PD-1 inhibitors-based combination treatment in metastatic gastric cancer
CONCLUSIONS: Low pre-treatment CCR and SATI were independently associated with lower response rates and worse survival in patients with metastatic GC receiving PD-1 inhibitors-based combination therapy.PMID:38665913 | PMC:PMC11043572 | DOI:10.3389/fimmu.2024.1364728 (Source: Cancer Control)

The Impact of Infectious Mononucleosis History on the Risk of Developing Lymphoma and Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma: a Retrospective Large-Scale Cohort Study using National Health Insurance Data in South Korea
CONCLUSION: This study suggests that individuals with a history of IM have an elevated risk of developing lymphoma and NPC in South Korea, emphasizing the importance of vigilant follow-up and monitoring. The results advocate for heightened awareness and potential national monitoring policies to address the long-term health implications of EBV infection and to implement preventive measures.PMID:38665055 | DOI:10.4143/crt.2023.1356 (Source: Cancer Control)

Risk factors and a nomogram for predicting local recurrence in adult patients with early gastric cancer after endoscopic submucosal dissection
Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is an effective treatment method for early gastric cancers. The aim of this study was to evaluate the risk factors of recurrence for patients with early gastric cancer after ESD and construct a nomogram for predicting recurrence.

Impact of abdominal compression on heart and stomach motion for stereotactic arrhythmia radioablation
CONCLUSIONS: AC was not a consistent motion management method for STAR, nor does not uniformly affect the separation distance between LVCs and the stomach. If AC is employed in future STAR protocols, the motion of the target volume and its relative distance to the stomach should be compared on two 4DCTs: one while the patient is FB and one under AC.PMID:38661250 | DOI:10.1002/acm2.14346 (Source: Methods of Information in Medicine)

Comparison of the Efficacy of 12-day Concomitant Quadruple Therapy versus 14-day High dose Dual Therapy as a First-line < em > H. pylori < /em > Eradication Regimen
CONCLUSIONS: Twelve-day concomitant therapy seems to be an acceptable regimen for first-line H. pylori eradication in Iran, a country with a high rate of antibiotic resistance. Although, high dose dual therapy did not result in an ideal eradication rate, but it had fewer drug side effects than the 12-day concomitant regimen.PMID:38659251 | DOI:10.4166/kjg.2024.012 (Source: Korean J Gastroenter...)

Emerging trends in gastrointestinal cancers: Targeting developmental pathways in carcinogenesis and tumor progression
Int Rev Cell Mol Biol. 2024;385:41-99. doi: 10.1016/bs.ircmb.2023.11.006. Epub 2024 Jan 15.ABSTRACTGastrointestinal carcinomas are a group of cancers associated with the digestive system and its accessory organs. The most prevalent cancers related to the gastrointestinal tract are colorectal, gall bladder, gastric, hepatocellular, and esophageal cancers, respectively. Molecular aberrations in different signaling pathways, such as signal transduction systems or developmental pathways are the chief triggering mechanisms in different cancers Though a massive advancement in diagnostic and therapeutic interventions results in i...
