Phytochemicals as Multitarget Therapeutics in Pancreatic Cancer: Mechanisms, Clinical Evidence, and Translational Challenges

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
Pancreatic cancer, particularly pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, is aggressive and often diagnosed late, making treatment challenging. This review highlights the potential of phytochemicals, such as curcumin and quercetin, as multitarget agents that influence key carcinogenic pathways. These compounds exhibit anticancer effects by inhibiting processes

Nanobodies as next‐generation targeting platforms: From discovery technologies to translational biomedicine

VIEW, EarlyView.
Nanobodies, derived from the variable domains of camelid heavy‐chain‐only antibodies, have emerged as transformative biomedical tools due to their nanoscale size, exceptional stability, and unique capacity to recognize cryptic epitopes. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the field, outlining the structural and biochemical features of ...

ANGPT2 Drives Thyroid Cancer Progression Through PI3K/AKT Signaling and Correlates With Poor Prognosis and Immune Infiltration

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Angiopoietin‐2 (ANGPT2) is known to participate in tumor progression and immune modulation across multiple malignancies. Nevertheless, its expression pattern, prognostic value, and biological function in thyroid cancer (THCA) have not been comprehensively investigated.

Evaluating ovarian function in infertile patients: the combined diagnostic utility of anti-müllerian hormone and angiopoietin-like protein 8

Gynecological Endocrinology
Background This study aims to explore the value of anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) in combination with angiopoietin-like protein 8 (ANGPTL8) in evaluating the ovarian function of infertile patients.Methods A total of 213 infertile patients who sought ...

Basophils in Immunity: Activation Pathways, Roles in Allergy and AllergoOncology and Application of the Basophil Activation Test

Allergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Basophils, the least abundant leukocytes, are increasingly recognised as potent immunomodulators. Upon activation, they rapidly release preformed granule‐associated mediators including histamine and lipid mediators such as LTC4, while cytokine production occurs over a longer timescale, contributing to downstream immune responses.

Dysregulated TIE‐2 expression is associated with blood‐brain barrier leakiness and Alzheimer's disease‐related neuropathology

Brain Pathology, EarlyView.
Ince et al., have analysed TIE‐1 and ‐2 expression in human brain tissue, including microvessel‐enriched fractions (MVF) and covering a spectrum of AD‐associated pathology, and in CSF from independent cohorts spanning a clinical spectrum from normal cognition to AD.

Inhibition of ANGPTL8 protects against diabetes-associated cognitive dysfunction by reducing synaptic loss via the PirB signaling pathway

Journal of Neuroinflammation
Background Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) is associated with an increased risk of cognitive dysfunction. Angiopoietin-like protein 8 (ANGPTL8) is an important regulator in T2D, but the role of ANGPTL8 in diabetes-associated cognitive dysfunction remains ...

Pioglitazone administration alters ovarian gene expression in aging obese lethal yellow mice

Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2008
Background Women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) are often treated with insulin-sensitizing agents, e.g. thiazolidinediones (TZD), which have been shown to reduce androgen levels and improved ovulatory function.

The nitty‐gritty of vascular permeability in cancer: targeting blood endothelium to control metastases

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Blood vascular permeability is a hallmark of cancer and acts as an active driver of metastatic dissemination. Metastasis accounts for the vast majority of cancer deaths, yet most work has focussed on tumour‐intrinsic traits and angiogenesis, while the specific contribution of endothelial barrier regulation to intravasation and extravasation remains ...

Gut microbiota as a novel therapeutic target for eating disorders and obesity

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract highlights the bidirectional interaction between the gut microbiota and central homeostatic and hedonic mechanisms regulating food intake, which contributes to overweight and obesity. It also illustrates emerging microbiota‐based biomarkers and therapeutic strategies (including prebiotics, probiotics, postbiotics, synbiotics and ...
