The treatment interventions and targets of cancer cachexia research during the past decade: a systematic review of the literature.

Background: Cachexia is a detrimental multifactorial syndrome that has been strongly associated with cancer. A growing body of data concerning its management is being generated from the ongoing advances of experimental cancer cachexia research. This study aimed to delineate the broad landscape of cancer cachexia research, by comprehensively presenting the treatment interventions and targets of cancer cachexia during the past decade.

Longitudinal Muscle Biopsies Reveal Inter- and Intra-Subject Variability in Cancer Cachexia: Paving the Way for Biopsy-Guided Tailored Treatment.

In the rapidly evolving landscape of cancer cachexia research, the development and refinement of diagnostic and predictive biomarkers constitute an ongoing challenge. This study aims to introduce longitudinal muscle biopsies as a potential framework for disease monitoring and treatment. The initial feasibility and safety assessment was performed for healthy mice and rats that received two consecutive muscle biopsies.

Hydroxytyrosol produced by engineered strains activates Nrf2/HO-1 pathway: An and study.

This study explores the biological effects of hydroxytyrosol (HT), produced by the metabolic engineering of , in a series of and experiments. In particular, a metabolically engineered strain capable of producing HT was constructed and utilized. HEK293 and HeLa cells were exposed to purified HT to determine non-toxic doses that can offer protection against oxidative stress (activation of Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway).

Oral Supplementation with Hydroxytyrosol Synthesized Using Genetically Modified Strains and Essential Oils Mixture: A Pilot Study on the Safety and Biological Activity.

Several natural compounds have been explored as immune-boosting, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory dietary supplements. Amongst them, hydroxytyrosol, a natural antioxidant found in olive products, and endemic medicinal plants have attracted the scientific community's and industry's interest. We investigated the safety and biological activity of a standardised supplement containing 10 mg of hydroxytyrosol synthesized using genetically modified strains and equal amounts (8.

Analysis of the corrective forces exerted by a dynamic derotation brace (DDB).

Background: Discrepancies exist in the current literature for bracing of spinal curvature conditions. This can be explained by the diversity of brace types, the different curve patterns and the various measurement methods and instruments.

Objectives: The aim of this study was the analysis of the corrective forces exerted by a dynamic derotation brace (DDB), at the skin-brace interface, altering the strap tension and body posture.
