identification of potential peptide inhibitors to disrupt NLRP3 inflammasome complex formation by blocking NLRP3-ASC pyrin-pyrin interactions.

The NLRP3 (NOD-, LRR- and pyrin domain-containing protein 3) inflammasome is a well-known and frequently cited regulator of caspase-1 activation. It plays a significant role in several pathophysiological processes and is a major regulator of the innate immune response. A growing amount of scientific evidences for its aberrant activation in various chronic inflammatory diseases attracts a growing interest in the development of new NLRP3 inhibitors.

Decoding the anti-cancer potential of Pexidartinib (PLX3397), a Fms-like tyrosine kinase 3 inhibitor, using next-generation knowledge discovery methods.

Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) is a complex hematologic malignancy characterized by the rapid proliferation of abnormal myeloid precursor cells. The FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3), a receptor tyrosine kinase, plays a pivotal role in regulating cell survival, proliferation, and differentiation within the hematopoietic system. Mutations in FLT3, particularly internal tandem duplications (ITDs) and point mutations within the tyrosine kinase domain (TKD), are prevalent in AML and are associated with poor prognosis and increased risk of relapse.

Prospective virtual screening combined with bio-molecular simulation enabled identification of new inhibitors for the KRAS drug target.

Lung cancer is a disease with a high mortality rate and it is the number one cause of cancer death globally. Approximately 12-14% of non-small cell lung cancers are caused by mutations in KRAS. The KRAS is one of the most prevalent mutants in lung cancer patients.

Impacts of chitosan and its nanoformulations on the metabolic syndromes: a review.

A significant public health issue worldwide is metabolic syndrome, a cluster of metabolic illnesses that comprises insulin resistance, obesity, dyslipidemia, hyperglycemia, and hypertension. The creation of natural treatments and preventions for metabolic syndrome is crucial. Chitosan, along with its nanoformulations, is an oligomer of chitin, the second-most prevalent polymer in nature, which is created via deacetylation.

Apoptosis and necrosis of human breast cancer cells by an aqueous extract of garden cress (Lepidium sativum) seeds.

Conventional treatments for breast cancer are costly and have serious side effects. Non-conventional natural treatments have gained wide acceptance due to their promise of a cure with minimal or no side effects, but little scientific evidence exists. One such common remedy is the seed of the Lepidium sativum plant.
