A modifying influence of ortho-cresol (o-cresol) on the carcinogenic effect of benzo(a)pyrene (B(a)P) in their combined peroral administration to CC57Br mice has been revealed. During the simultaneous administration of the o-cresol (1 mg) and B(a)P (1 mg) the rate of tumours, their multiplicity index, the degree of malignancy increased and the latent period shortened. In case of o-cresol administration before or after B(a)P (in the same doses) the decrease of carcinogenic effect has been revealed. In case of simultaneous administration of 10 mg of the o-cresol and 5 mg of the B(a)P the tumor incidence did not change in comparison with the animals of the control group which received only B(a)P. But their progression was hampered which was confirmed by a decrease of the malignancy rate, frequent occurrence and prolongation of the period of the malignization beginning.

The cholinergic deficits and amyloid beta (Aβ) aggregation are the mainstream simultaneously observed pathologies during the progression of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Deposited Aβ plaques are considered to be the primary pathological hallmarks of AD and are contemplated as promising diagnostic biomarker. Herein, a series of novel theranostic agents were designed, synthesised and evaluated against cholinesterase (ChEs) enzymes and detection of Aβ species, which are major targets for development of therapeutics for AD.

Introduction: Organ transplant recipients face a substantial risk of developing posttransplant lymphoproliferative disorders (PTLD). In over 90% of cases with B-cell PTLD following solid organ transplantation, the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) genome is promptly identified, usually within the initial year. A continuing discussion revolves around the efficacy of antiviral prophylaxis in mitigating the incidence of PTLD in solid organ transplant (SOT) patients.

Background: Neck pain is a significant public health issue, especially among office workers, with a prevalence ranging from 42 to 68%. This study aimed to evaluate the cost-utility and cost-benefit of a multi-component intervention targeting neck pain in the general population of office workers in Switzerland. The 12-week multi-component intervention consisted of neck exercises, health promotion information workshops, and workplace ergonomics sessions.

The role of the nucleus accumbens (NAc) core in determining the valence of innately rewarding saccharin solution intake, methamphetamine (MAMPH)-induced conditioned taste aversion (CTA), and conditioned place preference (CPP) reward remains unclear. The present study utilized the "pre- and post-association" experimental paradigm (2010) to test whether the rewarding and aversive properties of MAMPH can be modulated by an N-methyl-D-aspartic acid (NMDA) lesion in the NAc core. Moreover, it tested how an NAc core NMDA lesion affected the innate reward of saccharin solution intake.
