Ex vivo expansion and activation of V γ9Vδ2 T cells by CELMoDs in combination with zoledronic acid
Int J Hematol. 2024 Apr 6. doi: 10.1007/s12185-024-03763-7. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAs multiple myeloma (MM) progresses, immune effector cells decrease in number and function and become exhausted. This remains an insurmountable clinical issue that must be addressed by development of novel modalities to revitalize anti-MM immunity. Human Vγ9Vδ2 T (Vδ2+ γδ T) cells serve as the first line of defense against pathogens as well as tumors and can be expanded ex vivo from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) upon treatment with amino-bisphosphonates in combination with IL-2. Here, we demonstrated that next-genera...

The Dutch multidisciplinary guideline osteoporosis and fracture prevention, taking a local guideline to the international arena
ConclusionIn our new multidisciplinary guideline osteoporosis and fracture prevention, we developed 5 “relatively new statements” that are all a crucial step forward in the optimization of diagnosis and treatment for fracture prevention. We also developed 5 flowcharts, and we suppose that this may be helpful for individual doctors and their patients in daily practice and may facilitate implement ation.

Long-term effectiveness of zoledronic acid in patients with Paget ’s disease of bone – a retrospective cohort study
ConclusionThe majority of patients with PDB experience a mild disease course, marked by monostotic involvement and a low prevalence of fractures. Zoledronic acid effectively manages PDB, providing sustained biochemical response. The necessity for multiple zoledronic acid injections remains questionable, often implemented due to osteoporosis.

Laser-assisted synthesis of nano-hydroxyapatite and functionalization with bone active molecules for bone regeneration
Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces. 2024 Mar 18;237:113859. doi: 10.1016/j.colsurfb.2024.113859. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe main goal of bone tissue engineering research is to replace the allogenic and autologous bone graft substitutes that can promote bone repair. Owing to excellent biocompatibility and osteoconductivity, hydroxyapatite is in extensive research and high demand for both medical and non-medical applications. Although various methods have been developed for the synthesis of hydroxyapatite, in the present study we have shown the use of nanosecond laser energy in the wet precipitation method of nano-hydroxya...

Zoledronic Acid Accelerates ER Stress-Mediated Inflammation by Increasing PDE4B Expression in Bisphosphonate-Related Osteonecrosis of the Jaw
Appl Biochem Biotechnol. 2024 Mar 25. doi: 10.1007/s12010-024-04859-w. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTLong-term administration of bisphosphonates can lead to a significant side effect known as bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (BRONJ). Although macrophage-mediated inflammation has been established as an important factor in BRONJ, the underlying mechanism remains elusive. In the current study, the roles of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in zoledronic acid (ZOL)-induced inflammation were analyzed in macrophages, and the regulatory mechanism of ER stress activation was next investigated. An in vitro model of B...

Real-World Evaluation of Primary Versus Secondary Prevention of Skeletal-Related Events in Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer
CONCLUSION: A majority of patients with mCRPC never receive BTAs prior to first SRE, despite universal access and availability of these agents in Ontario. These results highlight an opportunity to improve outcomes by emphasizing early introduction of BTA in patients with mCRPC being started on systemic therapy.PMID:38527096 | DOI:10.1093/oncolo/oyae036 (Source: The Oncologist)
