Chromosomal aberrations were studied in cells of embryonic liver and bone marrow of A/He and C57BL/6 mice following mutagenic treatment by the alkylating agent thiophosphamide in g1-S periods of the cell cycle. Higher sensitivity of chromosomes to aberration induction was found in A/He mice.

Purpose: Mammary carcinoma is comprised heterogeneous groups of cells with different metastatic potential. 4T1 mammary carcinoma cells metastasized to heart (4THM), liver (4TLM) and brain (4TBM) and demonstrate cancer-stem cell phenotype. Using these cancer cells we found thatTGF-β is the top upstream regulator of metastatic process.

Department of Rheumatology, Centre for Rheumatology, Calicut, Kerala, India.

Low-dose methotrexate (LD-MTX) is the anchor drug used in the treatment of various rheumatological illnesses. There are a lot of misconceptions associated with the long-term use of MTX in the minds of practitioners. The origin of most of these myths stems from the ill effects associated with high-dose MTX used in cancer chemotherapy.

Berardinelli-Seip congenital lipodystrophy (BSCL), also known as congenital generalized lipodystrophy (CGL), is an exceptionally rare autosomal recessive disorder marked by a significant deficiency of adipose tissue throughout the body. This lack of adipose tissue, normally found beneath the skin and between internal organs, leads to impaired adipocyte formation and fat storage, causing lipids to accumulate in atypical tissues such as muscles and the liver. The extent of adipose tissue loss directly influences the severity of symptoms, which can include a muscular appearance, increased appetite, bone cysts, marrow fat depletion, acromegalic features, severe insulin resistance, skeletal muscle hypertrophy, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, hepatic steatosis, hepatomegaly, cirrhosis, and intellectual disability.

Background: Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a non-neoplastic proliferation and macrophage activation that induces cytokine-mediated bone marrow suppression and features of intense phagocytosis in the bone marrow and liver, leading to multi-organ dysfunction and ultimate failure. The diagnosis of HLH in an intensive care setting is challenging, and it is associated with high morbidity and mortality. HLH-94 is the standard protocol for treatment, consisting of dexamethasone and chemotherapy like etoposide.

In continuation of our efforts to develop new anticancer compounds, a new series of imidazo[1,5-]pyridine-chalcone derivatives was designed, synthesized, characterized, and evaluated for its cytotoxicity against five human cancer cell lines, , breast (MDA-MB-231), colon (RKO), bone (Mg-63), prostate (PC-3), and liver (HepG2) cell lines, as well as a normal cell line (HEK). Among the synthesized compounds, two exhibited promising cytotoxicity against the MDA-MB-231 cell line with IC values of 4.23 ± 0.
