Inhibiting de novo lipogenesis identifies a therapeutic vulnerability in therapy-resistant colorectal cancer.

A significant clinical challenge in patients with colorectal cancer (CRC), which adversely impacts patient survival, is the development of therapy resistance leading to a relapse. Therapy resistance and relapse in CRC is associated with the formation of lipid droplets (LD) by stimulating de novo lipogenesis (DNL). However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the increase in DNL and the susceptibility to DNL-targeted therapies remain unclear.

Advances in diagnosis and prognosis of bacteraemia, bloodstream infection, and sepsis using machine learning: A comprehensive living literature review.

Background: Blood-related infections are a significant concern in healthcare. They can lead to serious medical complications and even death if not promptly diagnosed and treated. Throughout time, medical research has sought to identify clinical factors and strategies to improve the management of these conditions.

Horizontal Ridge Expansion: A Comparative Study of Motorized Ridge Expanders Versus Osseodensification Techniques.

Background: Adequate horizontal and vertical bone volume is an ideal prerequisite to achieving good primary stability, osseointegration, and long-term survival of an implant. Several techniques are available to achieve adequate bone volume for implant placement. Among the various non-subtractive methods, ridge expansion with motorized bone expanders is a commonly used method to expand bone volume in the anterior maxilla.

Unveiling a growth temperature-dependent ultra-sensitive tetragonal scheelite BiVO thin film-based gas sensor for ammonia volatilization at room temperature.

Ammonia (NH) vapour is considered as a hazardous volatile, which has the potential to cause health concerns in humans. Exposure to NH can lead to potentially fatal, severe burn injuries to human eyes, can cause encephalopathy, and also affects various physiological systems, including the liver, the kidneys and the immune system. Due to these prime factors, the advancement of chemi-resistive ammonia gas sensors at room temperature has drawn considerable attention among researchers.
