Targeted therapies (e.g., ibrutinib) have markedly improved chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) management; however, ~20% of patients experience disease relapse, suggesting the inadequate depth and durability of these front-line strategies.

Background: Naringenin, a flavonoid compound found in citrus fruits, possesses valuable anticancer properties. However, its potential application in cancer treatment is limited by poor bioavailability and pharmacokinetics at tumor sites. To address this, Naringenin nanoparticles (NARNPs) were prepared using the emulsion diffusion technique and their anticancer effects were investigated in HepG2 cells.

Introduction: This work aims to validate the ameliorative influence of metformin against endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS)-prompted apoptosis caused by vanadium pentoxide (VO) or gamma-irradiation (γ-irradiation) in hepatic tissues of male rats.

Methods: There were six groups of rats: the control, metformin (100 mg/kg body weight, .), VO (12.

Article Synopsis
  • High-grade B-cell lymphoma not otherwise specified (HGBCL, NOS) shares similarities with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and Burkitt lymphoma (BL), which complicates its diagnosis and treatment.
  • A study on a cohort of 55 patients revealed that about 60% of HGBCL, NOS cases don't express the BL gene signature and instead display characteristics aligned with DLBCL, while showing significant genetic diversity and changes in critical regulatory genes.
  • Pediatric HGBCL, NOS cases exhibited gene expressions typical of GCB-DLBCL and also showed key mutations seen in pediatric BL; the research highlighted PIM1 mutations in adults as a potential target for new therapies.

Background: B-cell receptor (BCR) signaling is a central driver in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), along with the activation of pro-survival pathways (e.g., NF-κB) and aberrant anti-apoptotic mechanisms (e.
