Human cytomegalovirus RNA2.7 inhibits ferroptosis by upregulating ferritin and GSH via promoting ZNF395 degradation.

Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is a herpes virus with a long replication cycle. HCMV encoded long non-coding RNA termed RNA2.7 is the dominant transcript with a length of about 2.

Synthesis and bioevaluation of a new Ga-labelled niraparib derivative that targets PARP-1 for tumour imaging.

Poly ADP-ribose polymerase (PARP) inhibitors prevent the repair of DNA single-strand breaks in cancer cells with abnormal homologous recombination, producing a synthetic lethal effect. Thus, PARP inhibitors have become clinically effective anticancer drugs. Labelling with radionuclides may extend the use of PARP inhibitors as tracers in nuclear medicine diagnostics, helping to stratify patients.

Scoping Review: The Effects of Interrupted Onabotulinumtoxin A Treatment for Chronic Migraine Prevention During the COVID-19 Pandemic.

Objective: To systematically examine the literature on the clinical consequences of inadvertent delays in scheduled onabotulinumtoxin A (OTA) therapy for chronic migraine during the COVID-19 pandemic and assess recommendations when access to OTA is limited.

Background: The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic was unprecedented in its impact on the global medical community. Most healthcare institutions in the United States (US) and the world had begun significantly limiting elective procedures, undermining management of many debilitating chronic conditions.

The Efficacy of Botulinum Toxin Use in Service Members and Veterans with Migraine and Post-Traumatic Headache Disorders: A Scoping Review.

Objective: To delineate the trend of use of botulinum toxin, including onabotulinum toxinA (OTA), in active military personnel and veterans with the diagnoses of migraine and post-traumatic headache (PTH) and describe the efficacy of botulinum toxin administration.

Background: Service members and veterans represent a unique population in the medical management of headache disorders, particularly migraine. They exhibit higher susceptibility to pain of greater intensity and longer durations, possibly due to their history of exposure to combat, trauma, and the associated psychological stresses.
