The antitumour activity of the alkaloid thaliblastine was studied on 7 ascitic and solid transplantable tumours in mice. It was found that the compound has a pronounced antitumour effect on ascitic tumour of Ehrlich, NK/Ly lymphoma (i.p.), sarcoma 37 (s.c. and i.p.), sarcoma 180 (s.c.) and Lewis lung carcinoma (i.m.). With a number of tumours, it was found that the single and intermittent drug administration exerts a better therapeutic effect than the chronic treatment.

Leucine-rich repeat-containing G-protein-coupled receptors regulate stem cell activity and tissue homeostasis within female reproductive organs, primarily through their interaction with the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. LGR4-6 are increasingly recognized for their roles in organ development, regeneration, and cancer. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the roles of LGR4-6 in female reproductive organs, highlighting their significance in normal physiology and disease states, specifically in the context of ovarian cancer.

Purpose: This project aimed to minimize medication errors and improve safe medication administration in an oncology setting in Muscat, Oman.
Methods: The study, spanning from the second quarter of 2022 to the first quarter of 2023, employed a one-group pretest-posttest quasi-experimental design, assessing key performance indicators (medication error and medication administration errors rates per 1000 patient days) on quarterly basis before and after implementing targeted interventions. Interventions focused on medication management processes and Healthcare Informatics System (HIS), Environment and equipment, and Education The project utilized the FOCUS PDCA (find, organize, clarify, understand, select, plan, do, check and act) methodology.
