Two non-small cell carcinoma cell lines from the major histopathologic groups of human lung cancers have been karyotyped: HS-24 was established from a squamous cell carcinoma, and SB-3 was obtained from a metastasis of a poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma. Endoreduplication is characteristic for both cell lines. Subsequent loss of chromosomes led finally to hypotetraploid karyotypes with modal chromosome numbers of 66-68 and 70-72 for HS-24 and SB-3, respectively. The structural analysis was performed by G- and C-banding. Stable overrepresentation of chromosomes 7, 8, 12, and 16 was found. Both cell lines developed a characteristic set of disomic and stable markers. Chromosomes involved in markers were 1, 2, 5, 6, 10, 11, 16, and 17. Consistent numerical and structural normality for chromosomes 4, 18, and 21 was observed.

The use of adjunct chemical substances in the early postoperative period of periodontal surgical procedures is recommended due to the potential risk of trauma in the operated area. Chlorhexidine digluconate mouthwash is widely used but can cause adverse effects. Phthalocyanine derivatives are being studied as an alternative, demonstrating good antimicrobial activity, especially in the self-activated form, which does not require additional light or chemicals.

The study of chalcone-1,2,3-triazole hybrids for anticancer activity is quite a recent area of focus, primarily because of the increasing demand for developing new drugs to treat cancer. The chalcones and 1,2,3-triazole rings in hybrid compounds has recently emerged as a promising strategy for developing novel anticancer agents. The 1,2,3-triazole ring, known for its stability and hydrogen bonding capabilities, enhances the target binding affinity of these hybrids.

Despite advances in multimodal cancer therapy, such as combining radical surgery with high-intensity chemoradiotherapy, for SMARCB1/INI-1-deficient sinonasal carcinoma (SDSC), the prognosis of patients remains poor. Immunotherapy is gaining increasing popularity as a novel treatment strategy for patients with SMARCB1/INI-1-deficient tumors. Herein, we report on the management of three patients with SDSC who received PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor therapy as a part of multimodal therapy based on surgery and chemoradiotherapy.
