Survival Outcomes with Regorafenib and/or Trifluridine/Tipiracil Sequencing to Rechallenge with Third-Line Regimens in Metastatic Colorectal Cancer: A Multicenter Retrospective Real-World Subgroup Comparison from the ReTrITA Study.

Background: There is ongoing discussion around the optimal course of treatment for metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) following the second line. Trifluridine/tipiracil (T) and regorafenib (R) have been the mainstay of therapy in this situation, as they both increased overall survival (OS) in comparison to a placebo. Despite the paucity of evidence, therapy rechallenge is also recognized as an option for practical use.

Tolerability and Preliminary Outcomes of Adjuvant T-DM1 in HER2-Positive Breast Cancer After Neoadjuvant Therapy: The ATD Study.

Background/objectives: HER2-positive breast cancer (HER2BC) is an aggressive subtype, with neoadjuvant treatment (NAT) aiming to achieve a pathological complete response (pCR) to improve long-term outcomes. Trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) has been established as the standard of care in the adjuvant setting for HER2BC patients who do not obtain pCR. The ATD study aimed to evaluate the real-world tolerability of T-DM1 in this setting.

Morphological Characterization, Polyphenolic Profile, and Bioactive Properties of , an Ancient Mediterranean Variety of Sweet Citrus.

of Mattinata, a rare and ancient Mediterranean citrus fruit, was investigated by sequence analysis of the ribosomal internal transcribed spacer regions, which assigns it as a variety of L. Morphological, chemical, and biomolecular approaches, including light and electron microscopy, HPLC-ESI-MS/MS, and antioxidant and anti-inflammatory assays, were used to characterize the flavedo and albedo parts, usually rich in bioactive compounds. The morphological findings showed albedo and flavedo cellular structures as "reservoirs" of nutritional components.

Impaired myoblast differentiation and muscle IGF-1 receptor signaling pathway activation after N-glycosylation inhibition.

The role of N-glycosylation in the myogenic process remains poorly understood. Here, we evaluated the impact of N-glycosylation inhibition by Tunicamycin (TUN) or by phosphomannomutase 2 (PMM2) gene knockdown, which encodes an enzyme essential for catalyzing an early step of the N-glycosylation pathway, on C2C12 myoblast differentiation. The effect of chronic treatment with TUN on tibialis anterior (TA) and extensor digitorum longus (EDL) muscles of WT and MLC/mIgf-1 transgenic mice, which overexpress muscle Igf-1Ea mRNA isoform, was also investigated.
