Enhancing the anticancer effect of NAMPT inhibition by targeting NAPRT in breast cancer cells

Advances in Cancer Biology - Metastasis
Introduction: Two pathways in the synthesis of NAD, catalyzed by the key enzymes nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT) and nicotinate phosphoribosyltransferase (NAPRT), support constant survival, growth, and propagation of cancer cells.

Synthetic lethality in cancer therapy: Mechanisms, models and clinical translation for overcoming therapeutic resistance

Clinical and Translational Medicine, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
Application of synthetic lethality screening in drug resistance models. Abstract Background and Rationale Synthetic lethality (SL)‐based strategies hold significant promise for overcoming therapeutic resistance, a critical bottleneck in cancer treatment where cancer cells evade anticancer therapies, leading to diminished efficacy or treatment failure ...

Fish Oil Ameliorates Glycolipid Metabolism Disorders Induced by Long‐Term Potato Chip Diet Through Gut‐Liver Axis

Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 1, January 2026.
Fried potato consumption is increasingly associated with metabolic disorders, yet preventive strategies remain poorly understood. In a 13‐week mouse model, long‐term potato chip intake induced significant glycolipid metabolic disturbances and tissue damage, which were ameliorated by fish oil supplementation through modulation of inflammation, hepatic ...

Biochemical and Comparative Proteomic Analyses Delineate the Anti‐Ovarian Carcinogenic Roles of Modified Calycosin

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 1, January 2026.
The modified calycosin derivative H10 was more effective in inhibiting cell proliferation through G0/G1 cell cycle arrest, together with inhibiting the migration and colony formation abilities of ovarian cancer cell lines SKOV3 and A2780. Comparative proteomic analysis coupled with Ingenuity Pathway Analysis further delineated calycosin derivative H10 ...

Metabolomic profiling of the synergistic effects of melittin in combination with cisplatin on ovarian cancer cells [PDF]

, 2017
Melittin, the main peptide present in bee venom, has been proposed as having potential for anticancer therapy; the addition of melittin to cisplatin, a first line treatment for ovarian cancer, may increase the therapeutic response in cancer treatment via

Emerging Therapeutic Strategies in Anti‐Aging Medicine: A Comprehensive Review

Medicine Bulletin, Volume 2, Issue 1, Page 94-123, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Aging is orchestrated by interconnected hallmarks such as genomic instability, mitochondrial dysfunction, cellular senescence, and disrupted intercellular communication, which collectively drive chronic disease progression. Recent advances have expanded therapeutic opportunities to include pharmacological agents, gene and epigenome editing ...
