Introduction: Cancer incidence is rising in Italy, making it harder for researchers to search for innovative and comprehensive treatment strategies. The advancement of precision medicine, the hunt for molecular targets, and the development of drugs that may operate on a specific target have all become increasingly important aspects of the oncological treatment strategy in recent years. The aim of this study is to analyze the activity and performance of the Oncology and Research Center of the Marche Region (CORM) and its Molecular Tumor Board (MTB) in implementing precision medicine to improve cancer treatment.

In cells, the term "cellular aging" represents a collection of biological changes that can precede the proliferative senescence states. Cells more resistant to proliferative senescence, such as the ones found in the basal layer of the epidermis, may also exhibit these aging patterns. Therefore, cellular aging events could be induced by endogenous signals named here as cellular aging triggers (CATs) components.

Diabetes mellitus is associated with chronic wound-healing problems that significantly impact patients' quality of life and substantially increase expenditure on healthcare. Therefore, the identification of compounds that can aid healing is justified. (Ten.

Bioactive compounds found in some functional foods, individually or in combination, can attenuate the negative effects of BPA exposure; an example is the multi-supplement containing guarana (Gua), selenium (Se), and L-carnitine (LC) -GSC- which has already demonstrated antioxidant, genoprotective, and immunomodulatory activities. This study aimed to determine the effect of GSC and its constituents on oxidative and genotoxic alterations triggered by BPA exposure in the retinal epithelial cell line.

This study characterized a nanosupplement based on coenzyme Q10 containing guarana (Paullinia cupana) and Brazil nuts oil (Bertholetia excelsa) (G-Nut). Determined cytotoxic and oxi-immunomodulatory effects on human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and its effect on mortality of red Californian earthworms (Eisenia fetida) and on the immune efficiency of its coelomocytes immune by in vitro exposure to yeast dead microorganism. The cytotoxic and immunomodulatory effects of G-Nut and the GN-Free extract (0.
