In recent decades, significant advancements have been achieved in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treatment. However, drug resistance, postoperative recurrence, distant metastasis, and other critical issues arise during NSCLC treatment. Natural products play a crucial role in the development of anti-tumor drugs.

With the widespread proliferation of the Internet, social networking sites have increasingly become integrated into the daily lives of university students, leading to a growing reliance on these platforms. Several studies have suggested that this emotional dependence on social networking sites stems from unmet psychological needs. Meanwhile, social rejection has been identified as a prevalent phenomenon that exacerbates the deficiency of individual psychological needs.

Aumolertinib is an irreversible third-generation epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI), although it has been administered for the treatment of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, it is unclear whether aumolertinib combined with ionizing radiation (IR) has potential therapeutic effects in treating brain metastases (BM) tumors from NSCLC. This study explored the anti-tumor effects of aumolertinib combined with IR in epidermal growth factor receptor mutated (EGFRm) NSCLC BM tumors.

Existing deep learning based face anti-spoofing (FAS) or deepfake detection approaches usually rely on large-scale datasets and powerful networks with significant amount of parameters to achieve satisfactory performance. However, these make them resource-heavy and unsuitable for handheld devices. Moreover, they are limited by the types of spoof in the dataset they train on and require considerable training time.

Background: Although vonoprazan has been proven to be a highly potent drug for Helicobacter pylori eradication, there have been no randomized trials comparing the effectiveness of regimens containing vonoprazan 20 mg daily with alternative standard strategies. We aimed to assess the efficacy, tolerance, and cost-effectiveness of quadruple therapy with vonoprazan 20 mg daily as a first-line therapy for H. pylori eradication.

Background: The increasing antimicrobial resistance of ) has resulted in a fall in cure rates. We aimed to assess the effectiveness of first-line susceptibility-guided therapy and furazolidone-based quadruple therapy for -infected patients.

Methods: Subjects with -infection were randomly assigned to either 10-day susceptibility-guided treatment or empiric treatment in a 2:1 ratio.

In this study, we used neural stem cells (NSCs) as a toxicology tool to assess the potential developmental neurotoxicity of drinking water from Taihu Lake. We found that the condensed drinking water could inhibit the proliferation and differentiation of NSCs, especially the tap water. Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry and high-performance liquid chromatography analysis showed that nickel was detected in the tap water with a high concentration.

Cancer stem-like cells (CSCs) have been proposed as a key driving force of tumor growth and relapse in colorectal cancer (CRC), and therefore, they are promising targets for cancer therapy. Epidemiological evidence has suggested that the daily use of aspirin reduces overall mortality of CRC and the risk of distant metastasis. We investigated the effect and mechanism of aspirin on CSCs in CRC.

Plenty of studies have assessed the association between intestinal metaplasia (IM) and gastric cancer risk, while the results were inconsistent. We aimed to assess the risk of gastric cancer among patients with IM. Systematic literature searches were conducted in PubMed, Embase and Cochrane databases.

MiR-592 has been identified as a neural-enriched microRNA, plays an important role in mNPCs differentiation, could induce astrogliogenesis differentiation arrest or/and enhance neurogenesis in vitro Previous studies showed that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) were involved in the neuronal development and activity. To investigate the role of miR-592 in neurogenesis, we described the expression profile of lncRNAs in miR-592 knockout mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) and the corresponding normal mESCs by microarray. By the microarray analysis and luciferase reporter assays, we demonstrated that lncRNA - AK048794, regulated by transcription factor GATA1, functioned as a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) for miR-592 and led to the de-repression of its endogenous target FAM91A1, which is involved in mESC pluripotency maintenance.

Annexin A2 is a calcium-dependent phospholipid-binding protein, involved in invasion, angiogenesis and migration in cancer cells. The aims of the present study were to evaluate the expression levels of annexin A2 and E-cadherin in gastric adenocarcinoma (GAC), and to investigate the association between the expression of annexin A2 and that of E-cadherin and Ki67, in addition to various clinicopathological factors. This study included 126 patients that were histopathologically diagnosed with GAC.

Coeliac disease (CD) is reported to be associated with risk of malignancy; however, this association remains unclear. We aimed to systematically evaluate the association between CD and risk of all malignancies as well as gastrointestinal (GI) malignancy specifically. The PUBMED and EMBASE databases were searched to identify eligible studies from 1960 to March 2015, without restriction.

In the present study, the effects of evodiamine on the apoptosis of human gastric cancer cells was studied in order to assess its antitumor effects and identify the molecular mechanisms involved. SGC7901 gastric cancer cells were treated with evodiamine at various concentrations (0, 3, 6, 12, 24 and 48 µmol/l) for 24 h. Inhibition of the proliferation of SGC7901 cells was assessed using an MTT assay.

Gamma delta T (γδT) cells are innate-like lymphocytes with strong, MHC-unrestricted cytotoxicity against cancer cells and show a promising prospect in adoptive cellular immunotherapy for various malignancies. However, the clinical outcome of commonly used Vγ9Vδ2 γδT (Vδ2 T) cells in adoptive immunotherapy for most solid tumors is limited. Here, we demonstrate that freshly isolated Vδ1 γδT (Vδ1 T) cells from human peripheral blood (PB) exhibit more potent cytotoxicity against adherent and sphere-forming human colon cancer cells than Vδ2 T cells .

Varicella-zoster virus (VZV) is a type of herpes virus known to cause varicella, mainly in young children, and herpes zoster in adults. Although generally non-lethal, VZV infection can be associated with serious complications, particularly in adults. Acute pancreatitis caused by VZV infection is a rare event, with reports primarily concerning immunocompromised individuals.

Development of cancer has been linked to chronic inflammation, particularly via interleukin-23 (IL-23) and IL-17 signaling pathways. However, the cellular source of IL-17 and underlying mechanisms by which IL-17-producing cells promote human colorectal cancer (CRC) remain poorly defined. Here, we demonstrate that innate γδT (γδT17) cells are the major cellular source of IL-17 in human CRC.

Article Synopsis
  • Researchers developed a whole-genome DNA microarray for Helicobacter pylori to analyze how it responds when the temperature drops from 37°C to 20°C.
  • They found that 10.2% of the H. pylori genes were significantly expressed differently after the temperature change, indicating a range of genomic responses over 120 minutes.
  • Up-regulated genes were primarily linked to energy and substance metabolism, indicating the bacteria's adaptive responses, while down-regulated genes related to DNA and cell envelope functions suggested potential damage under low-temperature conditions.

In order to search for specific genotypes related to this unique phenotype, we used whole genomic DNA microarray to characterize the genomic diversity of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) strains isolated from clinical patients in China. The open reading frame (ORF) fragments on our microarray were generated by PCR using gene-specific primers.
