The utility of the 21-gene Oncotype DX Breast Recurrence Score assay in node-negative breast cancer patients - the final analysis of the Polish real-life survey PONDx.

Introduction: Breast cancer (BC) is among the most frequently diagnosed malignant tumours in females. The optimal treatment of early HR+, HER2-, and lymph node-negative (N0) BC remains challenging. Since individual assessment of recurrence risk and expected benefits from adjuvant chemotherapy (CT) based on clinicopathological features alone appear inadequate, gene expression profiling tests have been developed.

Sacituzumab Govitecan for Second and Subsequent Line Palliative Treatment of Patients with Triple-Negative Breast Cancer: A Polish Real-World Multicenter Cohort Study.

Introduction: Sacituzumab govitecan (SG) is approved for patients with previously treated metastatic or locally advanced triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), as per the ASCENT trial results. Real-world studies (RWSs) cover more diverse patients than clinical trials, offering crucial data for healthcare policies. This study aimed to investigate the safety and efficacy of SG in real-world Polish patients with previously treated metastatic TNBC.

Reconstituted HDL ameliorated renal injury of diabetic kidney disease in mice.

Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is a devastating kidney disease and lacks effective therapeutic interventions. The present study was aimed to determine whether reconstituted high-density lipoprotein (rHDL) ameliorated renal injury in eNOS dbdb mice, a mouse model of DKD. Three groups of mice, wild type C57BLKS/J (non-diabetes), eNOS dbdb (diabetes), and eNOS dbdb treated with rHDL (diabetes+rHDL) with both males and females were used.

Photophysical Characterization and In Vitro Evaluation of α-Mangostin-Loaded HDL Mimetic Nano-Complex in LN-229 Glioblastoma Spheroid Model.

Cytotoxic activity has been reported for the xanthone α-mangostin (AMN) against Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), an aggressive malignant brain cancer with a poor prognosis. Recognizing that AMN's high degree of hydrophobicity is likely to limit its systemic administration, we formulated AMN using reconstituted high-density lipoprotein (rHDL) nanoparticles. The photophysical characteristics of the formulation, including fluorescence lifetime and steady-state anisotropy, indicated that AMN was successfully incorporated into the rHDL nanoparticles.
