Decoding the Role of Kinesin Superfamily Proteins in Glioma Progression.

Glioma is a highly aggressive and invasive brain tumor with limited treatment options, highlighting the need for novel therapeutic approaches. Kinesin superfamily proteins (KIFs) are a diverse group of motor proteins that play essential roles in cellular processes such as mitosis, intracellular transport, and signal transduction, all of which are crucial for tumorigenesis. This review focuses on the multifaceted role of KIFs in glioma, examining their clinical relevance, contribution to tumor progression, and potential as therapeutic targets.

Endothelial characteristics of cardiac stem cell antigen-1 expressing cells and their relevance to right ventricular adaptation.

A growing body of evidence suggest that the stem cell antigen-1 expressing (Sca-1) cells in the heart may be the cardiac endothelial stem/progenitor cells. Their endothelial cell (EC) functions, and their role in RV physiology and pathophysiology of right heart failure (RHF) remains poorly defined. This study investigated EC characteristics of rat cardiac Sca-1 cells, assessed spatial distribution and studied changes in Sca1 cells during RV remodelling in monocrotaline (MCT) model of pulmonary hypertension and RV remodeling.

Histone Deacetylation in Alzheimer's Diseases (AD); Hope or Hype.

Histone acetylation is the process by which histone acetyltransferases (HATs) add an acetyl group to the N-terminal lysine residues of histones, resulting in a more open chromatin structure. Histone acetylation tends to increase gene expression more than methylation does. In the central nervous system (CNS), histone acetylation is essential for controlling the expression of genes linked to cognition and learning.

Elevating Therapeutic Penetration: Innovations in Drug Delivery for Enhanced Permeation and Skin Cancer Management.

Skin cancer stands as a challenging global health concern, necessitating innovative approaches to cure deficiencies within traditional therapeutic modalities. While conventional drug delivery methods through injection or oral administration have long prevailed, the emergence of topical drug administration presents a compelling alternative. The skin, aside from offering a swift and painless procedure, serves as a reservoir, maintaining drug efficacy over extended durations.
