Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is one of the deadliest human cancers, with the overall 5-year survival rate stagnating in recent decades due to the lack of innovative treatment approaches. Apart from the recently Food and Drug Administration-approved epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitor and immune checkpoint inhibitor, alternative therapeutic strategies that target epigenetic abnormalities, an emerging cancer hallmark, remain to be fully explored. A pathological epigenetic landscape, characterized by widespread reprogramming of chromatin modifications such as DNA methylation and histone modifications, which drives transcription deregulation and genome reorganization, has been extensively documented in numerous cancers, including HNSCC.

The war in Ukraine has caused significant losses to the Ukrainian agricultural sector and threatened global food security. This study aims to comprehensively analyse the impact of the Russian invasion on Ukrainian agriculture in its initial phase, examine the responses of Ukrainian agricultural policy and outline key elements for the post-war development of the Ukrainian agricultural sector. Using a systematic approach that includes thorough data collection and analysis from official sources, the Ukrainian press, relevant legislation and statistical data, our study focuses on the first five months of the conflict, from February 24, 2022 to July 24, 2022, to identify the main challenges during this period.

Cytochrome P450 (CYP450) enzymes, which are widely distributed and pivotal in various biochemical reactions, catalyze diverse processes such as hydroxylation, epoxidation, dehydrogenation, dealkylation, nitrification, and bond formation. These enzymes have been applied in drug metabolism, antibiotic production, bioremediation, and fine chemical synthesis. Recent research revealed that CYP450 catalytic kinetics deviated from the classic Michaelis-Menten model.
