Role of LEDGF/p75 (PSIP1) in oncogenesis. Insights in molecular mechanism and therapeutic potential.

Aberrant gene expression due to dysfunction in proteins involved in transcriptional regulation is a hallmark of tumor development. Indeed, targeting transcriptional regulators represents an emerging approach in cancer therapeutics. Lens epithelium-derived growth factor (LEDGF/p75, PSIP1) is a co-transcriptional activator that tethers several proteins to the chromatin.

Sarcopenia Diagnosis and Management in Hematological Malignancies and Differences with Cachexia and Frailty.

Sarcopenia is a geriatric syndrome characterized by a progressive loss of systemic muscle mass and decreased muscle strength or physical function. Several conditions have a role in its pathogenesis, significantly impacting adverse outcomes such as falls, functional decline, frailty, disability, multiple hospitalizations, and mortality. In the oncological setting, sarcopenia is associated with an increased risk of treatment toxicity, postoperative complications, and a higher mortality rate related to other causes (e.

The "Asthma-Polycystic Ovary Overlap Syndrome" and the Therapeutic Role of Myo-Inositol.

Asthma is a heterogeneous inflammatory disease characterized by abnormalities in immune response. Due to the inherent complexity of the disease and the presence of comorbidities, asthma control is often difficult to obtain. In asthmatic patients, an increased prevalence of irregular menstrual cycles, infertility, obesity, and insulin resistance has been reported.

PREVES: A Population-Based Survey Focused on Cancer and Nutrition.

Introduction: Approximately a third of cancer-related deaths are attributable to modifiable factors.

Methods: As a pilot experience, a cross-sectional survey was conducted in 8,000 citizens residing in four different municipalities of the Salerno province (Sarno, Pagani, San Valentino Torio, and San Marzano sul Sarno) to investigate key lifestyle and dietary habits.

Results: A total of 703 of participants (8.
