Disease-Modifying Therapy in Subacute Sclerosing Panencephalitis

Annals of Indian Academy of Neurology, 2023
Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE) is a neurodegenerative disorder because of the persistence of mutated measles virus in the central nervous system. Till date, no curative therapy has been established for SSPE. Multiple drugs have been tried to modify the disease process but have shown mild to moderate benefit at best.

Data from Photodynamic Therapy: A Light in the Darkness?

, 2023
<div>Abstract<p>Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is used to treat localized premalignant or early malignant disease. This study reports the enhanced, systemic antitumor immune response from PDT, suggesting that it may have a potential role as a therapy to address both local and disseminated disease.</p></div>

Editorial: Immunoglobulin Therapy in the 21st Century – the Dark Side of the Moon [PDF]

Frontiers in Immunology, 2015
Since its widespread introduction in the early 1980s, immunoglobulin therapy (IG) has been extensively investigated to understand its mechanism of action and clinical benefits. Research has also continued to improve its production. The survival benefits of IG for patients with primary immunodeficiency (PID) are accepted (1).

Extract Derived From Black Rice Functions as a Photothermal Agent for Suppressing Tumor Growth and Metastasis

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2020
It remains a challenge to develop an effective therapeutic agent with low cost and good biocompatibility for cancer therapy. Based on its dark color, we hypothesized that, the extraction from black rice grains, denoted BRE, could serve as a photothermal ...

Insights into PI3K/AKT signaling in B cell development and chronic lymphocytic leukemia

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This Review explores how the phosphoinositide 3‐kinase and protein kinase B pathway shapes B cell development and drives chronic lymphocytic leukemia, a common blood cancer. It examines how signaling levels affect disease progression, addresses treatment challenges, and introduces novel experimental strategies to improve therapies and patient outcomes.

Resolving the dark side of therapy-driven cancer cell death [PDF]

Journal of Experimental Medicine, 2017
In this issue of JEM, Sulciner et al. (https://doi.org/10.1084/jem.20170681) provide evidence that therapy-induced cancer cell death can, paradoxically, stimulate and accelerate the growth of surviving malignant cells by fueling tumor-promoting inflammation.

Disruption of SETD3‐mediated histidine‐73 methylation by the BWCFF‐associated β‐actin G74S mutation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The β‐actin G74S mutation causes altered interaction of actin with SETD3, reducing histidine‐73 methylation efficiency and forming two distinct actin variants. The variable ratio of these variants across cell types and developmental stages contributes to tissue‐specific phenotypical changes. This imbalance may impair actin dynamics and mechanosensitive

Identification of functional and diverse circulating cancer‐associated fibroblasts in metastatic castration‐naïve prostate cancer patients

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) promote cancer growth, invasion (metastasis), and drug resistance. Here, we identified functional and diverse circulating CAFs (cCAFs) in patients with metastatic prostate cancer (mPCa). cCAFs were found in higher numbers and were functional and diverse in mPCa patients versus healthy individuals, suggesting their ...

Cellular liquid biopsy provides unique chances for disease monitoring, preclinical model generation and therapy adjustment in rare salivary gland cancer patients

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We quantified and cultured circulating tumor cells (CTCs) of 62 patients with various cancer types and generated CTC‐derived tumoroid models from two salivary gland cancer patients. Cellular liquid biopsy‐derived information enabled molecular genetic assessment of systemic disease heterogeneity and functional testing for therapy selection in both ...
