Ferroptosis triggered by dihydroartemisinin facilitates chlorin e6 induced photodynamic therapy against lung cancerthrough inhibiting GPX4 and enhancing ROS.

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is noninvasive, low toxicity, and photo-selective, but may be resisted by malignant cells. A previous study found chlorin e6 (Ce6) mediated PDT showed drug resistance in lung cancer cells (LLC), which may be associated with PDT-induced DNA damage response (DDR). DDR may up-regulate glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4), which in turn degrade ROS induced by PDT.

Harnessing chlorin e6 loaded by functionalized iron oxide nanoparticles linked with glucose for target photodynamic therapy and improving of the immunogenicity of lung cancer.

Background: Non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most common malignant lung tumor and is difficult to be eradicated due to its immunosuppressive microenvironment. Chlorin e6 (Ce6)-mediated photodynamic therapy (PDT) could improve immunogenicity while destroying malignant tumor cells. However, the clinic application of Ce6-mediated PDT is limited by Ce6's poor water solubility and insufficient accumulation in lung cancer.

Chlorin e6 mediated photodynamic therapy triggers resistance through ATM-related DNA damage response in lung cancer cells.

Objective: Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a promising strategy for the treatment of malignant tumors due to its high selectivity, limited-toxicity, and non-invasiveness. However, PDT can also induce DNA damage and subsequent repair response, which may reduce the efficacy of PDT. In the present study, we sought to explore the effect of chlorin e6 (Ce6)-mediated PDT on DNA damage and DNA damage response (DDR) in lung cancer cells.

However, little information was available about the change of Cd level in environmental matrices and long-term effect of this pollution accident to aquatic ecosystem.

Bone mesenchymal stem cell secretion of sRANKL/OPG/M-CSF in response to macrophage-mediated inflammatory response influences osteogenesis on nanostructured Ti surfaces.

Although it has been well established that osteogenic differentiation of bone mesenchymal stem cells (bMSCs) as well as osteoclastic differentiation of macrophages can be manipulated by the nanostructure of biomaterial surfaces, the interactions among the effects of the surface on immune cells and bMSCs remained unknown. Therefore, in this study, the osteogenic behaviors and secretion of osteoclastogenesis-related cytokines of human bMSCs on TiO nanotubular (NT) surfaces in conditioned medium (CM) generated by macrophages cultured on the respective NT surfaces (NT-CM) were analyzed. Although bMSCs showed consistent osteogenic behaviors on the NT5 and NT20 surfaces in both standard culture medium and both types of NT-CM, collagen synthesis and extracellular matrix mineralization were partially impeded on the NT20 surface in NT20-CM and bMSC cytokine secretions on the NT20 surface in NT20-CM elicited remarkable multinuclear giant cell and osteoclast formation compared with that observed on the NT5 surface in NT5-CM.

Preoperative statins as modifiers of cardiac and inflammatory outcomes following coronary artery bypass graft surgery: a meta-analysis.

Early postoperative cardiac complications of coronary artery bypass graft surgery, such as atrial fibrillation (AF) or myocardial infarction (MI), may be beneficially modulated by preoperative statins, involving their anti-inflammatory effects. There is uncertainty on the clinical merit of statin pretreatment. Addressing this, we conducted a meta-analysis of early cardiac complications and inflammatory markers following statin pretreatment in coronary artery bypass graft surgery.

Background: Pneumonectomy (PN) has traditionally been the treatment of choice for central lung tumors for which the alternative is sleeve lobectomy (SL). The aim of this study was to compare early and long-term results after SL and PN in focusing on T3 central non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

Methods: Patients who underwent SL (n=58) or PN (n=42) were retrospectively analyzed.

MicroRNA-141 regulates the expression level of ICAM-1 on endothelium to decrease myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury.

A growing number of studies have suggested microRNAs (miRNAs) are involved in the modulation of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (MI/R) injury; however, the role of endogenous miRNAs targeting endothelial cells (ECs) and its interaction with ICAM-1 in the setting of MI/R remain poorly understood. Our microarray results showed that miR-146a, miR-146b-5p, miR-155*, miR-155, miR-497, and miR-451 were significantly upregulated, whereas, miR-141 and miR-564 were significantly downregulated in the ECs challenged with TNF-α for 6 h. Real-time PCR analyses additionally validated that the expression levels of miR-146a, miR-155*, and miR-141 were consistent with the microarray results.
