Breast cancer ranks as the second leading reason of cancer mortality among females globally, emphasizing the critical need for novel anticancer treatments. In current work, berberine-zinc oxide conjugated chitosan nanoparticles were synthesized and characterized using various characterization techniques. The cytotoxic effects of CS-ZnO-Ber NPs on MCF-7 cells were assessed using the MTT assay.

The cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA4) is essential in controlling T cell activity within the immune system. Thus, uncovering the molecular dynamics of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within the CTLA4 gene is critical. We identified the non-synonymous SNPs (nsSNPs), examined their impact on protein stability, and identified the protein sequences associated with them in the human CTLA4 gene.

Background: Few studies have assessed the safety and efficacy of laparoscopic surgery in patients with metachronous colorectal cancer (MCRC). This study aims to evaluate the safety and outcomes of laparoscopic surgery in MCRC patients who have previously undergone colorectal cancer surgery.
Methods: We compared the short-term outcomes of open versus laparoscopic surgery in patients with MCRC between October 2007 and October 2022.

Objective: As an effective treatment for spinal metastasis (SM), ERAS protocol can significantly reduce the length of hospital stay and complications in patients. Establishing an ERAS program for perioperative care after SM surgery is a clinical problem that needs to be addressed urgently. We aimed to develop an Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) program and Surgical Safety Checklist (SSC) that conferred clinical benefit to patients with SM and made it relatively easy to manage the condition.

CAR-T therapy (chimeric antigen receptor T-cell) has revolutionized the prognosis of patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) that have relapsed or are refractory to conventional chemotherapies. In particular, patients who have relapsed or are refractory to two lines of therapy are patients who have a poor prognosis. The advent of CAR-T immunotherapy is an innovative approach with which we can give hope of recovery even in the case of refractory disease, even for patients who are not candidates for high-dose therapies, for example due to age.
