This study aimed to evaluate the possible anticancer effects of two different pillar[5]arene derivatives (5Q-[P5] and 10Q-P[5]) on two different pancreatic cancer cell lines in vitro. For this purpose, changes in the expression of major genes that play a role in apoptosis and caspase pathways were investigated. Panc-1 and BxPC-3 cell lines were used in the study and the cytotoxic dose of pillar[5]arenes was determined by the MTT method.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study investigates the coagulation process in COVID-19 patients using Thromboelastography (TEG) to assess differences based on D-dimer levels, with a focus on real-time clot formation and breakdown.
  • - A total of 51 patients were divided into two groups: those with high D-dimer levels (HDG) and low D-dimer levels (LDG). The HDG exhibited significantly higher D-dimer and fibrinogen levels compared to the LDG.
  • - TEG analysis revealed distinct coagulation characteristics between the groups, indicating that certain TEG parameters can be used as cut-off points to assess thrombosis risk in COVID-19 patients.

There is a slight increase in the rate of invasion of the surgical margins in laparoscopic interventions.
