Genetics and metabolic deregulation following cancer initiation: A world to explore

Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy, 2016
Cancer is a group of highly complex and heterogeneous diseases with several causes. According to the stochastic model, cancer initiates from mutation in somatic cells, leading to genomic instability and cell transformation. This canonical pathway of carcinogenesis is related to the discovery of important mechanisms that regulate cancer initiation ...

The Nuclear Receptor Testicular Receptor 4 Orchestrates Cytoskeletal Organization in a G Protein Subunit Alpha 12/Rho‐Associated Protein Kinase–Dependent Manner to Promote Myofibroblast Differentiation and Tissue Fibrosis in Systemic Sclerosis

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Members of the superfamily of nuclear receptors have been implicated in inflammatory processes and pathologic tissue remodeling and have emerged as attractive targets for pharmaceutical intervention. However, the role of testicular receptor 4 (TR4; or Nr2c2) in fibroblast activation and rheumatologic diseases has not yet been investigated ...

Efficacy, safety and cost‐effectiveness of CAR‐T therapy

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
CAR T‐cells demonstrate high efficacy in blood cancers, including ALL, MM and DLBCL. Innovations target solid tumours despite challenges such as antigen escape. Combination therapies enhance the delivery and infiltration of CAR T cells. Toxicity, cost and resistance remain major barriers to clinical use.

From anthelmintic to neuro‐oncology: A systematic review of mebendazole repurposing for brain tumour therapy

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim Mebendazole (MBZ), a benzimidazole anthelmintic with established clinical use, has emerged as a repurposing candidate for primary brain tumours due to its multimodal anticancer actions and central nervous system penetrance. This systematic review synthesizes preclinical and clinical evidence evaluating MBZ's efficacy, mechanisms of action ...

Syncing Health Timing: Exploring the Interplay of Circadian Rhythms, Obesity, and Cardiovascular Diseases

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Circadian rhythm disruption impairs metabolic regulation, appetite control, and vascular function, promoting obesity and cardiovascular diseases. Evidence highlights a bidirectional relationship where metabolic disorders further disturb circadian timing.

Deregulation of methionine metabolism as determinant of progression and prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma

Translational Gastroenterology and Hepatology, 2018
The under-regulation of liver-specific MAT1A gene codifying for S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) synthesizing isozymes MATI/III, and the up-regulation of widely expressed MAT2A, MATII isozyme occurs in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). MATα1:MATα2 switch strongly contributes to the fall in SAM liver content both in rodent and human liver carcinogenesis.

DNA Methylation and Transcriptomic Profiles of Wilms Tumour Reveal New Deregulated Genes and Epigenetic Processes Relevant for Tumour Stratification and Management

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Wilms Tumour (WT), the most common kidney cancer in children, presents features of altered kidney development and frequently exhibits molecular alterations at the 11p15.5 imprinted locus, affecting the IGF2 and H19 genes, which contribute to tumour growth and predisposition.

Non‐Nutritive Artificial Sweeteners Aspartame and Acesulfame‐K Ameliorate Metabolic Dysfunction‐Associated Steatotic Liver Disease in Male Ldlr−/− Mice

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aspartame and acesulfame‐K are commonly used non‐nutritive artificial sweeteners, but their impacts on cardiovascular disease and metabolic dysfunction‐associated fatty liver disease (MASLD) are unclear. In this study, we evaluated the impacts of aspartame and acesulfame‐K on MASLD and atherosclerosis in male Ldlr−/− mice fed an AMLN diet ...

Effects of testosterone and high‐dose anabolic steroids on orthodontic‐induced bone remodeling and root resorption: An animal study

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This study investigates the impact of disruptions in testosterone levels on bone remodeling, root resorption, and periodontal ligament (PDL) during orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) in a pubertal male rat model. Methods Testosterone deficiency was induced through orchiectomy, and the anabolic‐androgenic steroid (AAS, testosterone ...

Exclusive enteral nutrition containing transforming growth factor‐β improves intestinal barrier function in a colitis mouse model

Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Exclusive enteral nutrition (EEN) is the first‐line treatment for pediatric Crohn's disease, but its mechanisms of action remain poorly understood. Our aim was to identify the mechanisms that could explain the anti‐inflammatory effects of EEN, studying the nutritional composition and transforming growth factor‐β (TGF‐β) effects, in ...
