Article Synopsis
- PDAC (pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma) is a highly aggressive cancer with a complex structure that makes it difficult to treat with standard chemotherapy.
- The study focused on different immune checkpoint proteins in the blood of 32 PDAC patients and found strong connections between their levels and patient survival rates.
- The researchers established specific plasma level thresholds for these immune markers that can indicate shorter survival, which were validated in a separate group of 27 patients, suggesting that monitoring these levels could improve treatment strategies for PDAC.
The antioxidant activity of resveratrol (1) and several acylated and glycosylated derivatives on fish oil enriched systems has been studied. Two long-chain acylated derivatives, 3-stearoylresveratrol (2) and 4'-stearoylresveratrol (3), and three glucosyl derivatives, resveratrol-3-beta-d-glucopyranoside (piceid, 4), resveratrol-3,5-di-beta-d-glucopyranoside (5), and resveratrol-3,4'-di-beta-d-glucopyranoside (6), have been prepared and tested. The results have shown a notable antioxidant capacity of resveratrol and piceid in fish oil-in-water emulsions, similar to that of the potent antioxidant hydroxytyrosol.
