Enhancing antitumor activity of herceptin in HER2-positive breast cancer cells: a novel DNMT-1 inhibitor approach.

HER2 antagonists remain the cornerstone of therapy for patients with HER2-positive breast cancer. This study introduces a novel small-molecule inhibitor of DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT-1), referred to as DI-1, designed to synergize with HER2 antagonists in treating HER2-positive breast cancer cells. Clinical data reveal a negative correlation between DNMT-1 expression and PTEN levels, and a positive correlation with the methylation rates of PTEN's promoter.

Microsurgical Vitrectomy with Pars Plana Incision for the Removal of Posterior Segment Intraocular Foreign Bodies.

This study describes a pars plana incision surgical technique combined with 23 or 25-gauge vitrectomy in the management of intraocular foreign bodies (IOFBs) and to assess its anatomical and functional results. Sixteen patients with ocular trauma complicated with IOFB were enrolled in our study. The mean preoperative visual acuity was 2.

Genomic and transcriptomic profiling of peripheral T cell lymphoma reveals distinct molecular and microenvironment subtypes.

Peripheral T cell lymphoma (PTCL) is a heterogeneous group of non-Hodgkin's lymphomas varying in clinical, phenotypic, and genetic features. The molecular pathogenesis and the role of the tumor microenvironment in PTCL are poorly understood, with limited biomarkers available for genetic subtyping and targeted therapies. Through an integrated genomic and transcriptomic study of 221 PTCL patients, we delineate the genetic landscape of PTCL, enabling molecular and microenvironment classification.

Long Noncoding RNA GUSBP11 Knockdown Alleviates Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma via Regulating miR-1226-3p/ Axis.

Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been confirmed related to the occurrence and progress of multiple cancers, including cervical cancer nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). This study focused on assessing GUSBP11 effects on NPC progression and exploring possible mechanisms. RT-qPCR was conducted for assessing GUSBP11 levels within NPC tissues and cells.

CEOP/IVE/GDP alternating regimen compared with CEOP as the first-line therapy for newly diagnosed patients with peripheral T cell lymphoma: results from a phase 2, multicenter, randomized, controlled clinical trial.

Background: Cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisolone (CHOP)/CHOP-like chemotherapy is widely used in peripheral T cell lymphoma (PTCL). Here we conducted a phase 2, multicenter, randomized, controlled trial, comparing the efficacy and safety of CEOP/IVE/GDP alternating regimen with CEOP in newly diagnosed PTCL.

Methods: PTCL patients, except for anaplastic large cell lymphoma-anaplastic lymphoma kinase positive, were 1:1 randomly assigned to receive CEOP/IVE/GDP (CEOP, cyclophosphamide 750 mg/m, epirubicin 70 mg/m, vincristine 1.

Association of the oral microbiome with the progression of impaired fasting glucose in a Chinese elderly population.

The oral microbiota is associated with the risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D), but the relationship between the oral microbiota and disease progression in the elderly population remains to be determined. In our study, we recruited 150 elderly Chinese residents and divided them into three groups according to their fasting glucose (FG) level: normal (N), high (H), and very high (VH). Their biochemical indexes were analyzed using blood samples.

Histone modifier gene mutations in peripheral T-cell lymphoma not otherwise specified.

Due to heterogeneous morphological and immunophenotypic features, approximately 50% of peripheral T-cell lymphomas are unclassifiable and categorized as peripheral T-cell lymphomas, not otherwise specified. These conditions have an aggressive course and poor clinical outcome. Identification of actionable biomarkers is urgently needed to develop better therapeutic strategies.

IL-33 Exerts Neuroprotective Effect in Mice Intracerebral Hemorrhage Model Through Suppressing Inflammation/Apoptotic/Autophagic Pathway.

Interleukin-33 (IL-33) is a recently identified member of the IL-1 family that exerts biologic functions by binding to a heterodimer composed of IL-1 receptor-related protein ST2L and IL-1RAcP. However, the role of IL-33 and whether IL-33 accounts for inflammation, apoptotic, and autophagic neuropathology after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) are not clear. Here, we established a mouse ICH model in this study, to determine the role of IL-33 and explore the underlying mechanism.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Marco Polo wild sheep ().

In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome of Marco Polo wild sheep was sequenced for the first time. It is 16 613 bp in length and possesses 22 tRNA genes, 13 typical mammalian protein-coding genes, two rRNA genes and one D-loop region. The whole genome's base composition is 33.

[Research Progress of Event-related Potential in Mild Cognitive Impairment].

Mild cognitive impairment caused by craniocerebral trauma is the key points and difficulties in judicial authentication. This article has comparative analysis of each mode of event-related potential (classical Oddball, Eriksen flanker task and so on), which can provide a more objective method for such craniocerebral trauma cases in clinical forensic judicial authentication.

[Effect of fertilization depth on 15N-urea absorption, utilization and loss in dwarf apple trees].

Five-year-old 'Fuji'3/M26/M. hupehensis Rehd. seedlings were treated by 15N tracer to study the effects of fertilization depth (0, 20 and 40 cm) on 15N-urea absorption, distribution, utilization and loss in soil.

[FLT3 Gene Mutations in Acute Myeloid Leukemia].

Objective: This study was aimed to detect the FLT3 gene mutation in patients with de-novo acute myeloid leukemia (AML), and to investigate its prognostic value and clinical significance.

Methods: Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to detect FLT3 gene mutation, in bone marrow samples of 54 patients with de novo AML.

Results: The incidence of FLT3-ITD mutation in 54 de-novo AML patients was 22.
