Investigation of the synergic effect of mocetinostat and capecitabine in a triple-negative breast neoplasms mouse model.

Combined administration of two or more drugs is emerging as a new strategy in triple-negative breast neoplasms. This is the first study to investigate the combination of the histone deacetylase inhibitor mocetinostat and the antimetabolite drug capecitabine in triple-negative mammary neoplasms in a preclinical mouse model. Thirty-five female mice were grouped into the control group, capecitabine group, mocetinostat group, and combined drugs group.

Dose-response effects of 8-week resistance training on body composition and muscular performance in untrained young women: A quasi-experimental design.

Background: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of 8-week resistance training with different training volumes on body composition, maximum strength, peak power, and muscle thickness in non-training women.

Methods: This was a 3-arm, prospectively designed, randomized controlled trial. A total of 45 adult women aged 20.

Combined treatment with ruxolitinib and MK-2206 inhibits ERα activity by inhibiting MAPK signaling in BT474 breast cancer cells.

Triple-positive breast cancer (TPBC) is a type of breast cancer that overexpresses estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), and human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2). Dysregulation of ER signaling has been implicated in the pathogenesis of breast cancer. ERα activation triggers the production of second messengers, including cAMP, leading to the activation of signals such as PI3K/AKT or Ras/MAPK.

Evaluating the diagnostic potential of gelsolin in gestational diabetes mellitus: A case-control study.

Objectives: To investigate the association between gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and blood levels of gelsolin (an inflammation-related protein thought to be reduced in type 2 diabetes mellitus) and to determine its role in potential diagnosis and neonatal outcomes.

Methods: This prospective case-control study was conducted at Ankara Etlik City Hospital between November 2023 and February 2024 with 40 pregnant women with GDM and 40 normoglycemic women. Pregnant women aged 18-40 years who were in their 24th to 28th week of pregnancy and had no known chronic disease were included in the present study and it was investigated as to whether there was a significant difference between the two groups in terms of gelsolin levels and neonatal outcome.

Ruxolitinib-loaded poly-ɛ-caprolactone (PCL) nanoparticles inhibit JAK2/STAT5 signaling in BT474 breast cancer cells by downregulating Bcl-2 and Mcl-1.

Background: JAK/STAT signaling plays an important role in regulating cell proliferation. Reducing proliferation and inducing cell death with gene-specific inhibitors such as ruxolitinib, Receptor tyrosine kinases (RTK) inhibitor targeting JAK1/2, are therapeutic approaches. The use of nanoparticles can reduce the toxicity and side effects of drugs, as they act directly on cancer cells and can selectively increase drug accumulation in tumor cells.
