Plant death during development is a highly orchestrated process at the cellular, tissue, organ, and whole-plant levels. The process toward death is endogenously programmed in plants. With our original approach called "three-dimensional analysis" using the rice coleoptile, we revealed detailed morphological alterations in the progression of senescence and programmed cell death involved in the air space (aerenchyma) formation at both tissue and cellular levels. Although these two types of cell death exhibited a distinct pattern of progression at the tissue level, the set of intracellular events was highly conserved. From those comprehensive investigations, we hypothesized that the identical program of death functions in each process of cell death, and that the initiation and progression of cell death is highly regulated by the environmental input.

Background: Plant flavonoids such as quercetin are useful for both the therapeutic and preventive care of a variety of illnesses. Nevertheless, their antitumor efficacy against KON oral cancer is still unknown. Therefore, the aim of this investigation was to examine quercetin's anti-growth, anti-migrative, and anti-invasive characteristics.

Introduction: Although there are a number of neoadjuvant immunotherapy combinations that can be applied to the treatment of perioperative non-small cell lung cancer patients, the optimal treatment combination strategy has not yet been determined.
Methods: We searched PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, ClinicalTrials.go and randomised controlled trials (RCTs) from major international conferences for literature related to neoadjuvant immunotherapy combinations published as first-line treatment options for non-small cell lung cancer from the start of the library to 20 February 2024, and performed a systematic review and network meta-analysis.

The spreading of COVID-19 has posed a risk to global health, especially for lung cancer patients. An investigation is needed to overcome the challenges of COVID-19 pathophysiology and lung cancer disease. This study was designed to evaluate the phytoconstituents in Punica granatum peel (PGP), its anti-lung cancer activity, and in silico evaluation for antiviral potential.

Background: Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP) is a liver disorder that occurs in the second and third trimesters of pregnancy and is associated with a significant risk of fetal complications, including premature birth and fetal death. In clinical practice, the diagnosis of ICP is predominantly based on the presence of pruritus in pregnant women and elevated serum total bile acid. However, this approach may result in missed or delayed diagnoses.

Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one common tumor with the high death rate, and badly affects the normal lives of CRC patients. Amarogentin (AG) has been found to exhibit regulatory roles and join into the progression of multiple diseases. However, the regulatory impacts and associated molecular mechanisms of AG in CRC progression keep unclear.
