The present research aimed to assess the anti-cancer effects of the polysaccharide fraction (SJP) isolated from . The release of immune-activating cytokines, including IL-6, IL-12, and TNF-α, was markedly stimulated by the SJP in a concentration-dependent manner within the range of 1 to 100 µg/mL. Furthermore, the prophylactic intravenous () and per os () injection of SJP boosted the cytolytic activity mediated by NK cells and CTLs against tumor cells.

Radiation therapy or radiotherapy is a medical treatment that uses high doses of ionizing radiation to eliminate cancer cells and shrink tumors. It works by targeting the DNA within the tumor cells restricting their proliferation. Radiotherapy has been used for treating cancer for more than 100 years.

Background: This study aimed to analyze the functional role of Brd4 in colorectal cancer (CRC) organoids. Brd4 was identified as a CRC-related gene by our previous Sleeping Beauty mutagenesis transposon screening in mice. Brd4 is a transcriptional regulator that recognizes acetylated histones and is known to be involved in inflammatory responses.

We report a case of recurrent abdominal bleeding associated with vascular fragility in a 67-year-old woman with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF-1). Computed tomography (CT) scan revealed hemorrhagic ascites and a pseudoaneurysm of the sigmoid colon artery, which was suspected to be the source of bleeding. Emergency laparotomy confirmed extremely fragile vessels, requiring repeated surgeries for recurrent bleeding.

Background: Accelerated continuous theta burst stimulation (acTBS) is a more intensive and rapid protocol than continuous theta burst stimulation (cTBS). However, it remains uncertain whether acTBS exhibits anxiolytic effects. The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of acTBS on anxiety model mice and elucidate the underlying mechanisms involved, in order to provide a more comprehensive understanding of its effects.
