We have studied the influence of Etmosin medication on severity of IHD clinical presentations and comprised biliary motility in 162 patients aged 26 to 60. Dynamic echocholecystography (DECG) has been applied. The obtained data suggest using Etmosin in patients with ischemic heart disease and comprised biliary motility makes for normalizing tonus of the Odi sphincter and decreasing the rate of episodes of angina pectoris, although was not found any influence of Etmosin on gall-bladder motility. The use of Etmosin enables in patients with IHD and comprised biliary motility to decrease reflex angina pectoris.

Neurological disorders are the leading health threats worldwide, characterized by impairments in consciousness, cognition, movement, and sensation, and can even lead to death. UFMylation is a novel post-translational modification (PTM) that serves as an important regulatory factor, promoting the complexity of protein structures and enhancing the diversity and specificity of functions. In UFMylation, ubiquitin-fold modifier 1 (UFM1) is covalently transferred to the primary amine of a lysine residue on the target protein through the synergistic action of three enzymes: the activating enzyme E1 of UFM1, the coupling enzyme E2 of UFM1, and the ligase E3.

Artocarpus lakoocha agglutinin (ALA), which specifically targets the Gal/GalNAc components of complex glycans, was isolated from the seeds of Artocarpus lakoocha. This study is the first to explore the role of ALA in identifying aberrant glycans, designated ALA-binding glycans (ALAG), and its implications in cholangiocarcinoma (CCA). ALA-histochemistry was used to evaluate ALAG expression in liver fluke-induced CCA tissues from hamsters (n = 60).

Objective: Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (iCCA) is a highly lethal hepatobiliary malignancy with an increasing incidence annually. Extensive research has elucidated the existence of a reciprocal interaction between platelets and cancer cells, which promotes tumor proliferation and metastasis. This study aims to investigate the function and mechanism underlying iCCA progression driven by the interplay between platelets and tumor cells, aiming to provide novel therapeutic strategies for iCCA.

Background: Glioblastoma (GB) is the stage IV of glioma and mesenchymal GB represents the most common and malignant subtype characterized with elevated expression of a mesenchymal marker YKL-40 and resistance to immune drug therapy. Here, we determined if YKL-40 regulates kynurenine (Kyn) pathway (KP) metabolism that contributes to establishing an immune suppressive microenvironment in GB.
Methods: Tumor cells expressing YKL-40 from GB patients were isolated and activated cellular metabolisms were identified via gene microarray analysis.
