Dihydropyrazines (DHPs), which exhibit DNA strand-breaking activity and other biological activities associated with the generation of radical species, reacted with thiourea to give tetraazaindene (TAI) derivatives, despite thiourea is a well known radical scavenger. The structural determination of the TAIs was carried out and formation mechanism of TAI was investigated.

This study confirmed the effect of sodium/iodine symporter (NIS) expression on existing drugs by in vitro and in vivo tests using cultured cell lines. The tumor growth inhibitory effect of sodium astatide ([At]NaAt) was evaluated by in vitro and in vivo tests using human thyroid cancer cells (K1, K1/NIS and K1/NIS-DOX). NIS expression in cancer cells was controlled using the Tet-On system.

DNA polymerase θ (Pol θ) is a DNA repair enzyme widely conserved in animals and plants. Pol θ uses short DNA sequence homologies to initiate repair of double-strand breaks by theta-mediated end joining. The DNA polymerase domain of Pol θ is at the C terminus and is connected to an N-terminal DNA helicase-like domain by a central linker.

(1) Background: Hyperthermia in oncology conventionally seeks the homogeneous heating of the tumor mass. The expected isothermal condition is the basis of the dose calculation in clinical practice. My objective is to study and apply a heterogenic temperature pattern during the heating process and show how it supports radiotherapy.

Although the classic molecular subtype of breast cancer (BRCA) has been widely used in clinical diagnosis, as a highly heterogeneous malignant tumor, the classic scheme is not enough to accurately predict the prognosis of breast cancer patients. Immune cells in the tumor microenvironment (TME) are thought to play a paramount role in tumor development and driving poor prognosis. In this study, we aimed to develop a TME-associated, immune-related signature to improve prognosis prediction of BRCA.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Luehea divaricata, popularly known in Brazil as "açoita-cavalo", has been widely explored by different ethnic groups native to Brazil to treat different pathologic conditions, including inflammatory pain. However, no report could be found on the effect that extract of L. divaricata has on neuropathic pain.
