CD7-targeted chimeric antigen receptor-T (CAR-T) cell therapy has shown great promise in the treatment of relapsed/refractory T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL). In this study, we reported a case of a 34-year-old male patient with T-ALL who finally developed multi-line drug resistance and refractoriness after multiple lines of high-intensity chemotherapy. After physician evaluation, this patient received allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT).

Herein, this study is a case report on a 41-year-old male patient with MM. Unfortunately, he still developed multidrug-resistant, refractory, and bone marrow suppression after receiving multiline high-intensity chemotherapy.

Most of these CARs were generated by lentivirus. With the exception of Yescarta and Tecartus, few patients with relapsed-/refractory- lymphoma have been treated clinically with a CARs using retroviral vector (RV).

Nutrition conditions can significantly affect the development of insects, especially carbohydrates (C) and proteins (P), which are the two most critical nutrients. To study the development of the population under different carbohydrate and protein nutrition conditions, we constructed a life table of both sexes of an population under three artificial diets: high nitrogen (P:C = 7:1), medium nitrogen, medium sugar (P:C = 1:1), and high sugar (P:C = 1:7).

Aim Of The Research: The purpose of the study is to determine the rewarding effects of YJZYD on HO-induced KGN cells, involving mitochondrial activity, estradiol biosynthesis, and energy metabolism.
Materials And Methods: The ingredients of YJZYD were investigated by UPLC-ESI-MS/MS analysis.
Alzheimer's disease (AD) as an age-related, irreversible neurodegenerative disease, characterized by cognitive dysfunction, has become progressively serious with a global rise in life expectancy. As the failure of drug elaboration, considerable research effort has been devoted to developing therapeutic strategies for treating AD. TCM is gaining attention as a potential treatment for AD.
