Myelosuppression is a serious and common complication of targeted therapy for cancer patients, and there are few studies exploring the efficacy of natural drugs in this condition. Niraparib is a widely used targeted therapy for the treatment of advanced ovarian cancer. As a poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor, niraparib significantly improves progression-free and overall survival in patients.

However, despite their extensive use in drug testing, genome editing, and transplantation for facilitating personalized treatment approaches in clinical practice, the inadequate capacity of these organoids to effectively model immune cells and stromal components within the tumor microenvironment limits their potential. Additionally, effective clinical immunotherapy has led the tumor immune microenvironment to garner considerable attention, increasing the demand for simulating patient-specific tumor-immune interactions.

Based on the absorptive capacity perspective, we investigated intertwined relationships among IS adoption, organizational capabilities, IS-enabled absorptive capacity, and organizational knowledge performance. We empirically examined our model with survey data from 417 IS employees of 21 different state governments in the United States.

Malat1, as one of the most extensively studied ncRNAs, is believed to be not only a potential biomarker for disease diagnosis and prognosis, but also a candidate drug target for gynecological cancers. This potential is supported by a growing body of experimental evidence demonstrating that Malat1 participates in the occurrence, progression, and metastasis of tumors.

Among them, there were 16 women with viable intrauterine pregnancy (VIP), 9 women with spontaneous abortion (SA), and 11 women of EP. Serum exosomal miRNAs were extracted and measured at the first prenatal visit.

We aimed to evaluate the effects of genistein on the proliferation, migration and invasion of cervical cancer HeLa cells, the expressions and phosphorylations of proteins related with FAK-paxillin and MAPKs signaling pathways, as well as the expressions of related key genes.
