Maximum colony growth inhibition was observed due to Pseudomonas PS2 (74%) as compared to PS1 (71%) on trypticase soy agar (TSM) plates after 5 days of incubation. Light and scanning electron microscopic examination showed hyphal coiling, vacuolation, coagulation and granulation of cytoplasm resulting in lysis of hyphae of M. phaseolina by pseudomonads. Cell free culture filtrates of strains PS1 and PS2 restricted the growth of mycelium of M. phaseolina. PS1 and PS2 caused maximum colony growth inhibition by 57 and 61% respectively at 20% concentration of culture filtrate after 4 days of incubation. Volatile substances produced by PS1 and PS2 also inhibited the colony growth of M. phaseolina by 25 and 32%, respectively. Inhibitory effect of volatile substances, however, decreased with advancing in incubation period. Colony growth of M. phaseolina was significantly decreased by PS1 and PS2 as compared to control both in iron- sufficient and iron-deficient conditions. PS2 showed higher antagonistic activity than PS1, as evidenced by pronounced colony growth inhibition.

Background: Immune cells within tumor tissues play important roles in remodeling the tumor microenvironment, thus affecting tumor progression and the therapeutic response. The current study was designed to identify key markers of plasma cells and explore their role in high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC).

Methods: We utilized single-cell sequencing data from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database to identify key immune cell types within HGSOC tissues and to extract related markers via the Seurat package.

Background: Zinc finger protein 169 (ZNF169) plays a key role in cancer development. However, the specific role of ZNF169 in the tumorigenesis of thyroid carcinoma (THCA) remains poorly understood.

Methods: The expression of ZNF169 was measured using immunohistochemistry, RT-qPCR, and western blot.

Based on the molecular hybridization strategy, novel thienopyridine indole derivatives were designed and synthesized as tubulin polymerization inhibitors, and the in vitro antiproliferative potency on MGC-803, KYSE450 and HCT-116 cells was evaluated. Among them, compound 20b showed a broad-spectrum antiproliferative activity against 11 cancer cell lines, with IC values below 4 nmol/L. Notably, it demonstrated exceptional efficacy against MGC-803 (IC = 1.

Interferon alpha (IFNa) is approved for the therapy of patients (pts) with polycythemia vera (PV), a subtype of myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN). Some pts achieve molecular responses (MR), but clonal factors sensitizing for MR remain elusive. We integrated colony formation and differentiation assays with single-cell RNA seq and genotyping in PV-derived cells vs.
