Oncogene Downregulation by Mahanine Suppresses Drug-Sensitive and Drug-Resistant Lung Cancer and Inhibits Orthotopic Tumor Progression.

: Lung cancer is one of the deadliest cancers, and drug resistance complicates its treatment. Mahanine (MH), an alkaloid from has been known for its anti-cancer properties. However, its effectiveness and mechanisms in treating non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remain largely unexplored.

Camel milk-derived exosomes as novel nanocarriers for curcumin delivery in lung cancer.

Cancer remains a leading cause of mortality, with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) being a primary contributor to cancer-related deaths. Traditional treatment strategies such as chemotherapy, radiation, and hormone therapy often present challenges, including severe side effects, drug resistance, and toxicity. Recent advancements in nanotechnology aim to enhance the effectiveness of cancer therapies by targeting drugs selectively and specifically to tumor cells.

Artificial intelligence derived categorizations significantly improve HOMA IR/β indicators: Combating diabetes through cross-interacting drugs.

Improvements in the homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) and homeostasis model assessment of beta-cell function (HOMA-β) significantly reduce the risk of disabling diabetic pathies. Nanoparticle (AuNP-AgNP)-metformin are concentration dependent cross-interacting drugs as they may have a synergistic as well as antagonistic effect(s) on HOMA indicators when administered concurrently. We have employed a blend of machine learning: Artificial Neural Network (ANN), and evolutionary optimization: multiobjective Genetic Algorithms (GA) to discover the optimum regime of the nanoparticle-metformin combination.

Molecular interactions of cucurbitacins A and B with anaplastic lymphoma kinase for lung cancer treatment.

Lung cancer is a major global public health issue and the leading cause of cancer-related deaths. Several medications are commonly used to treat lung cancer, either alone or in combination with other treatments. The anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) protein is one of several target proteins that are thought to be potential therapeutic targets in the context of lung cancer.

Updates on the anticancer potential of garlic organosulfur compounds and their nanoformulations: Plant therapeutics in cancer management.

Garlic ( L.) possesses numerous pharmacological potential, including antibacterial, antiarthritic, antithrombotic, anticancer, hypoglycemic, and hypolipidemic effects. The anti-cancer action of garlic is likely the best researched of the many advantageous pharmacological effects, and its use offers significant protection against the risk of developing cancer.

NADP/H binding nearly doubles the stability of a drug target: an unfolding study.

Aspartate beta semialdehyde dehydrogenase (ASADH) was studied using various spectroscopic techniques and size exclusion chromatography to examine the unfolding of free (apo) and NADP/H-bound (holo) forms of ASADH. Non-cooperative guanidinium chloride (GdnHCl)-induced unfolding of the apo ASADH was discovered, and no partially folded intermediate structures were stabilized. On the other hand, it was observed that GdnHCl's unfolding of holoenzyme was a cooperative process without any stable intermediate structure.

Nanotechnological interventions of the microbiome as a next-generation antimicrobial therapy.

The rise of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) impacts public health due to the diminished potency of existing antibiotics. The microbiome plays an important role in the host's immune system activity and shows the history of exposure to antimicrobials and its manipulation in combating antimicrobial resistance. Advancements in gene technologies, DNA sequencing, and computational biology have emerged as powerful platforms to better understand the relationship between animals and microorganisms (MOs).

Cumin Prevents 17β-Estradiol-Associated Breast Cancer in ACI Rats.

Breast cancer (BC) is a leading cause of cancer deaths in women in less developed countries and the second leading cause of cancer death in women in the U.S. In this study, we report the inhibition of E2-mediated mammary tumorigenesis by (cumin) administered via the diet as cumin powder, as well as dried ethanolic extract.

Microbe-based therapies for colorectal cancer: Advantages and limitations.

Cancer is one of the leading global causes of death in both men and women. Colorectal cancer (CRC) alone accounts for ∼10 % of total new global cases and poses an over 4% lifetime risk of developing cancer. Recent advancements in the field of biotechnology and microbiology concocted novel microbe-based therapies to treat various cancers, including CRC.

Milk exosomes: A biogenic nanocarrier for small molecules and macromolecules to combat cancer.

Exosomes are unique biogenic nanocarriers of endocytic origin that are generated from most of the cells and found in biofluids like milk, plasma, saliva, and urine. Bovine milk represents the largest and an economic source for the production of exosomes. In recent past, the utility of the milk exosomes as drug carriers is intensified.
