Two new series of compounds E-2,3,4-trimethoxy-6-styrylbiphenyls and 2,3,4-trimethoxy-6-(1-phenylvinyl)biphenyls were designed, synthesized and evaluated for antitubulin activity. A common intermediate 4,5,6-trimethoxybiphenyl-2-carbaldehydes was employed to generate the two scaffolds. Majority of the analogs inhibited cell proliferation and those functionalized with 3,4-(1,3-dioxolane) and 3,4-difluoro groups were identified as effective inhibitors in both the series. Treatments with 19b, 19c, 22b and 22c arrested cells at G2/M phase, disrupted microtubule network, accumulated tubulin in the soluble fraction and manifested an increased expression of the G2/M marker, Cyclin B1. Molecular docking analysis demonstrated the interaction of these compounds at the colchicine binding site of tubulin.

Introduction: In the rapidly advancing field of 'omics research, there is an increasing demand for sophisticated bioinformatic tools to enable efficient and consistent data analysis. As biological datasets, particularly metabolomics, become larger and more complex, innovative strategies are essential for deciphering the intricate molecular and cellular networks.
Methods: We introduce a pioneering analytical approach that combines Principal Component Analysis (PCA) with Graphical Lasso (GLASSO).

Stable-isotope resolved metabolomics (SIRM) is a powerful approach for characterizing metabolic states in cells and organisms. By incorporating isotopes, such as C, into substrates, researchers can trace reaction rates across specific metabolic pathways. Integrating metabolomics data with gene expression profiles further enriches the analysis, as we demonstrated in our prior study on glioblastoma metabolic symbiosis.

Background: Patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) face a highly unfavorable outcome and have a poor response to standard treatments. Immunotherapy, especially therapy based on natural killer (NK) cells, presents a promising avenue for the treatment of PDAC.
Aims: This research endeavor seeks to formulate a predictive tool specifically designed for PDAC based on NK cell-related long non-coding RNA (lncRNA), revealing new molecular subtypes of PDAC to promote personalized and precision treatment.

Background: Chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cell therapy is more effective in relapsed or refractory diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) than other therapies, but a high proportion of patients relapse after CAR-T cell therapy owing to antigen escape, limited persistence of CAR-T cells, and immunosuppression in the tumor microenvironment. CAR-T cell exhaustion is a major cause of relapse. Epigenetic modifications can regulate T cell activation, maturation and depletion; they can be applied to reduce T cell depletion, improve infiltration, and promote memory phenotype formation to reduce relapse after CAR-T cell therapy.
