Recent Advances on Small-Molecule Bromodomain-Containing Histone Acetyltransferase Inhibitors.

In recent years, substantial research has been conducted on molecular mechanisms and inhibitors targeting bromodomains (BRDs) and extra-terminal (BET) family proteins. On this basis, non-BET BRD is gradually becoming a research hot spot. BRDs are abundant in histone acetyltransferase (HAT)-associated activating transcription factors, and BRD-containing HATs have been linked to cancer, inflammation, and viral replication.

Design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of novel dual inhibitors of heat shock protein 90/mammalian target of rapamycin (Hsp90/mTOR) against bladder cancer cells.

In this study, a novel class of thieno [2,3-d] pyrimidine derivatives containing resorcinol and morpholine fragments as Hsp90/mTOR dual inhibitors was designed, synthesized, and evaluated. In vitro anti-tumor assay results: the obtained compounds demonstrated effectiveness in suppressing the enzymatic activities of the Hsp90 and mTOR and inhibiting the proliferation of J82, T24, and SW780 cancer cell lines. Among these dual inhibitors, the most potent compound 17o, confirmed remarkable inhibitory activities on Hsp90, mTOR, and SW780 cell.

[Development of Self Training Device for Lung Function Compliance Guided by Meridians].

Objective: To develop a self deep breathing training device which can improve lung function compliance and blood oxygen saturation.

Methods: The device consists of four parts:flow tube, measuring cylinder, mobile phone holder and meridian guidance audio-visual synthesis training software. The flow tube measures the flow rate of inhaled gas, the metering cylinder measures the total amount of inhaled gas, and the mobile phone rack is equipped with a mobile phone storing the meridian guidance audio-visual synthesis training software.

Discovery of novel TNNI3K inhibitor suppresses pyroptosis and apoptosis in murine myocardial infarction injury.

Myocardial infarction (MI) injury is a highly lethal syndrome that has, until recently, suffered from a lack of clinically efficient targeted therapeutics. The cardiac troponin I interacting kinase (TNNI3K) exacerbates ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury via oxidative stress, thereby promoting cardiomyocyte death. In this current study, we designed and synthesized 35 novel TNNI3K inhibitors with a pyrido[4,5]thieno[2,3-d] pyrimidine scaffold.

Ceritinib Alone for Crizotinib-naive Versus Crizotinib-pretreated for Management of Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase-rearrangement Non-Small-cell Lung Cancer: A Systematic Review.

Ceritinib shows a promising efficacy in patients with anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)-rearrangement non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The present systematic review determined the whole body and intracranial effectiveness and safety of ceritinib in crizotinib-naive versus crizotinib-pretreated regimens in ALK-rearrangement NSCLC. A comprehensive search of databases, including PubMed, EMBASE, Ovid, Web of Science, and COCHRANE, was performed to identify clinical trials in English-language journals.

Modeling Transfer of Vibrio Parahaemolyticus During Peeling of Raw Shrimp.

Unlabelled: This study aimed to qualify the transfer of Vibrio parahaemolyticus during the shrimp peeling process via gloves under 3 different scenarios. The 1st 2 scenarios provided quantitative information for the probability distribution of bacterial transfer rates from (i) contaminated shrimp (6 log CFU/g) to non-contaminated gloves (Scenario 1) and (ii) contaminated gloves (6 log CFU/per pair) to non-contaminated shrimp (Scenario 2). In Scenario 3, bacterial transfer from contaminated shrimp to non-contaminated shrimp in the shrimp peeling process via gloves was investigated to develop a predictive model for describing the successive bacterial transfer.
