Targeting Immune Checkpoints: Basic Signaling Pathways and Clinical Translation in Cancer Therapeutics

MedComm – Oncology, Volume 4, Issue 3, September 2025.
Immune checkpoints in tumor immunotherapy. Ligand binding to the receptor inhibits immune cell function, promotes tumor cell immune escape, and suppresses the immune response. The pathways of action are VISTA‐IGSF11, TIM‐3‐Ceacam1, CD47‐SIRPα, CTLA‐4‐CD80/CD86, PD‐L1‐PD‐1, MHC‐1‐LILRB, and CD24 ‐ Siglec ‐10. There are also other immune checkpoints such

Pharmacogenetic interaction between dexamethasone and Cd36-deficient segment of spontaneously hypertensive rat chromosome 4 affects triacylglycerol and cholesterol distribution into lipoprotein fractions

Lipids in Health and Disease, 2010
Dexamethasone (DEX) is known to induce diabetes and dyslipidemia. We have compared fasting triacylglycerol and cholesterol concentrations across 20 lipoprotein fractions and glucose tolerance in control (standard diet) and DEX-treated 7-month-old males ...

Optimization of Ultrasound Extraction of Total Anthocyanin From Berberis kaschgarica Rupr. by Response Surface Methodology and Its Antihypertensive Effect

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 12, Issue 12, Page 10699-10715, December 2024.
In the current research, an optimized ultrasound‐assisted extraction method was developed for extracting anthocyanin from Berberis kaschgarica Rupr. fruits. The extract was purified and its effects were evaluated against hypertension in the rat model. The developed UAE method was found suitable for high‐yield anthocyanin extraction.

Re‐evaluation of saccharin and its sodium, potassium and calcium salts (E 954) as food additives

EFSA Journal, Volume 22, Issue 11, November 2024.
Abstract This opinion deals with the re‐evaluation of saccharin and its sodium, potassium and calcium salts (E 954) as food additives. Saccharin is the chemically manufactured compound 1,2‐benzisothiazol‐3(2H)‐one‐1,1‐dioxide. Along with its sodium (Na), potassium (K) and calcium (Ca) salts, they are authorised as sweeteners (E 954).

Genetic analysis of the cardiac methylome at single nucleotide resolution in a model of human cardiovascular disease.

PLoS Genetics, 2014
Epigenetic marks such as cytosine methylation are important determinants of cellular and whole-body phenotypes. However, the extent of, and reasons for inter-individual differences in cytosine methylation, and their association with phenotypic variation ...

Unmoving and uninflamed: Characterizing neuroinflammatory dysfunction in the Wistar‐Kyoto rat model of depression

Journal of Neurochemistry, Volume 168, Issue 9, Page 2443-2460, September 2024.
We aimed at assessing anxiety‐ and depressive‐like behaviors in Wistar‐Kyoto (WKY) rats and determining whether these were associated to changes in levels of neuroinflammatory markers (Iba‐1, CD86, Ym1, GFAP, S100A10) and mediators (interleukins IL‐1β, IL‐6, TNF‐α) in the prefrontal cortex (PFC), hippocampus, and amygdala.

Spontaneous vascular dysfunction in Dahl salt‐sensitive male rats raised without a high‐salt diet

Physiological Reports, Volume 12, Issue 14, July 2024.
Abstract Dahl salt‐sensitive (SS) rats fed a high‐salt diet, but not low‐salt, exhibit vascular dysfunction. Several substrains of SS rats exist that differ in their blood pressure phenotypes and salt sensitivity. The goal of this study was to investigate whether the John‐Rapp‐derived SS rat (SS/Jr), which exhibits spontaneous hypertension on a low ...

Shared quantitative trait loci underlying root biomass and phenology in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)

Journal of Agronomy and Crop Science, Volume 210, Issue 3, June 2024.
Abstract In this study, we investigated the genetic mapping of root biomass and root/shoot ratio. We utilized a large (n = 345) bi‐parental recombinant inbred line (RIL) population from the ‘Penny’ × ‘Yecora‐Rojo’ cross to investigate the partitioning of biomass above‐ and belowground and to identify the quantitative trait loci (QTL) that influence ...

Comparative assessment of CacyBP/SIP, β‐catenin and cannabinoid receptors in the adrenals of hypertensive rats

Journal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, Volume 28, Issue 10, May 2024.
Abstract Taking into account homeostatic disorders resulting from arterial hypertension and the key importance of CacyBP/SIP, β‐catenin and endocannabinoids in the functioning of many organs, it was decided to assess the presence and distribution of CacyBP/SIP, β‐catenin, CB1 and CB2 in the adrenal glands of hypertensive rats of various aetiology.
