Senotherapeutics for Knee Osteoarthritis

Medicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic disease that imposes a significant economic burden and deteriorates quality of life. Nevertheless, current therapeutic options for OA are limited to symptomatic remedies. As such, there is a high interest in novel methods for treating or preventing OA.

Influence of Angptl1 on osteoclast formation and osteoblastic phenotype in mouse cells

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2021
Background Osteoblasts and osteoclasts play important roles during the bone remodeling in the physiological and pathophysiological states. Although angiopoietin family Angiopoietin like proteins (Angptls), including Angptl1, have been reported to be ...

Angiopoietin-like protein 2 inhibits thrombus formation

Molecular and Cellular Biochemistry
Abstract Acute myocardial infarction is mainly caused by a lack of blood flood in the coronary artery. Angiopoietin-like protein 2 (ANGPTL2) induces platelet activation and thrombus formation in vitro through binding with immunoglobulin-like receptor B, an immunoglobulin superfamily receptor.

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

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.

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.
