Chemopreventive Effect of Bitter Melon (Momordica charantia) Juice on Pancreatic Carcinogenesis in LSL‐KrasG12D/+; p48Cre/+ Mice

Molecular Carcinogenesis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Herein, using the LSL‐KrasG12D/+; p48Cre/+ transgenic mouse model [that recapitulates the full spectrum of human disease, progressing from early pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasia lesions to invasive pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC)], we determined the chemopreventive effect of long‐term (chronic) administration of Bitter Melon Juice (

Redefining CHI3L1: Therapeutic Opportunities at the Crossroads of Immune Suppression and Disease Progression

Medicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chitinase‐3‐like‐1 (CHI3L1, also known as YKL‐40) has been recognized as a biomarker of inflammation and tissue remodeling and has now emerged as a pseudoenzymatic immune checkpoint. Recent structural, immunological, and translational studies redefine it as an active regulator of immune suppression rather than a passive disease marker. Despite

Prenatal Exome Sequencing Identifies Dual Maternal‐Fetal Diagnosis of HbF Mission Bay, a Novel HBG2 Variant Associated With Methemoglobinemia, Hypoxia and Hemolytic Anemia

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Prenatal exome sequencing (ES) can establish rare genetic diagnoses in a fetus but may also lead to occult genetic diagnosis in a biological parent. We present a case of dual fetal and maternal diagnosis by prenatal ES, in a fetus with unexplained anemia and in a pregnant patient with sickle cell disease (SCD) and recurrent unexplained hypoxia.

Hemophilia A: An Ideal Disease for Prenatal Therapy

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hemophilia A (HA) is the most common inherited coagulation defect. Current state‐of‐the‐art treatment consists of frequent administration of prophylactic infusions of coagulation factor VIII (FVIII) protein or bispecific antibodies that replace the cofactor function of FVIIIa to maintain hemostasis. However, these treatments are far from ideal,

Hemolytic Disease of the Fetus and Newborn: Fetal RHD Genotyping, Targeted Prophylaxis, and Prenatal Therapies

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN) remains a significant concern in prenatal care primarily caused by maternal alloimmunization against fetal red blood cell antigens, most commonly the D antigen. Noninvasive fetal RHD genotyping, used as a screening tool, enables targeted antenatal prophylaxis and has been implemented in several

In Utero HSC Transplantation for Sickle Cell Disease: A Potential Therapeutic Approach That Overcomes Complications of Current Therapies

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sickle cell disease (SCD) affects millions worldwide but has limited treatment options, most of which carry significant side effects. At present, the only curative treatment for SCD is allogeneic or gene‐modified autologous hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) transplantation (Tx).

The Diagnosis and Prenatal Management of Non‐RHD Alloimmunizations

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Red blood cell (RBC) alloimmunization remains a relevant cause of hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN). Although RhD immunization has significantly decreased since the implementation of systematic prophylaxis, it is still the main cause of alloimmunization in pregnancy.
