The effect of ramipril (an angiotensin [AT]-converting enzyme inhibitor), telmisartan (an AT-II type 1 receptor blocker), or their combination on inflammation and lipid peroxidation was assessed in 37 patients with type 2 diabetes who were free of coronary artery disease. All regimens were associated with a significant reduction of C-reactive protein and oxidized low-density lipoprotein cholesterol serum levels (p <0.001). These results further enlighten the mechanisms underlying the cardiovascular beneficial effect of renin-AT system inhibition.

Importance: The phase 3 randomized EMBARK trial evaluated enzalutamide with or without leuprolide in high-risk nonmetastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer. Eligibility relied on conventional imaging, which underdetects metastatic disease compared with prostate-specific membrane antigen-positron emission tomography (PSMA-PET).
Objective: To describe the staging information obtained by PSMA-PET/computed tomography (PSMA-PET/CT) in a patient cohort eligible for the EMBARK trial.

Muscle atrophy in pathological or diseased muscles arises from an imbalance between protein synthesis and degradation. Elevated levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6) are a hallmark of ischemic stroke and have been associated with muscle atrophy in certain pathological contexts. However, the mechanisms by which IL-6 induces muscle atrophy in the context of stroke remain unclear.

Background: AT-rich interaction domain 4B (ARID4B) is a transcriptional activator that regulates the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/AKT pathway in prostate cancer. However, the role of ARID4B in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has remained unclear.
Methods: This study included 162 patients who had undergone primary hepatic resection for HCC between 2008 and 2019.

Objective: Post-resuscitation brain injury is a common sequela after cardiac arrest (CA). Increasing sirtuin1 (SIRT1) has been involved in neuroprotection in oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) neurons, and we investigated its mechanism in post-cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) rat brain injury by mediating p65 deacetylation modification to mediate hippocampal neuronal ferroptosis.
Methods: Sprague-Dawley rat CA/CPR model was established and treated with Ad-SIRT1 and Ad-GFP adenovirus vectors, or Erastin.
