Article Abstract
A series of 4-anilino-3-cyanobenzo[g]quinolines was prepared as potent kinase inhibitors. Compared with their bicyclic 4-anilino-3-cyanoquinoline analogues, the tricyclic 4-anilino-3-cyanobenzo[g]quinolines are less active against EGF-R kinase, equally active against MAPK kinase (MEK), and more active against Src kinase. For Src kinase inhibition, the best activity is obtained when both the 7- and 8-positions are substituted with alkoxy groups. Several of these kinase inhibitors show potent growth inhibitory activity in tumor cells.
The tyrosine kinase 2 inhibitor deucravacitinib is therapeutically effective for psoriasis. However, predictive factors for high responses to deucravacitinib have not been examined in a real-world clinical study. Our study aimed to identify predictive factors for responders to deucravacitinib.

Background: ROS1, a member of the sevenless subfamily of tyrosine kinase insulin receptors, promotes tumor cell survival, proliferation, and metastasis by activating the JAK/STAT, PI3K/AKT, and MAPK/ERK pathways. It only accounts for about 2% of total NSCLC cases. No cases of acquired ROS-1 rearrangement have been reported worldwide.
Background: Driver mutations in tyrosine kinases, such as the anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) mutation, are known to play a critical role in the pathogenesis of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) but are rarely observed in large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (LCNEC). Multiple primary malignancies (MPMs) refer to the occurrence of two or more distinct primary malignancies within the same or different organs and tissues in a single patient, either simultaneously or sequentially.
Case Presentation: We reported a case of advanced LCNEC as a heterochronous double primary malignancy, following a prior breast cancer diagnosis in a 55-year-old woman.
Idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM) are a group of systemic autoimmune diseases characterized by muscle weakness and elevated serum creatine kinase levels. Recent research has highlighted the role of the innate immune system, particularly inflammasomes, in the pathogenesis of IIM. This review focuses on the role of inflammasomes, specifically NLRP3 and AIM2, and their associated proteins in the development of IIM.
Sterile inflammation has been increasingly recognized as a hallmark of non-infectious kidney diseases. Induction of pro-inflammatory cytokines in injured kidney tissue promotes infiltration of immune cells serving to clear cell debris and facilitate tissue repair. However, excessive or prolonged inflammatory response has been associated with immune-mediated tissue damage, nephron loss, and development of renal fibrosis.
