Phosphorylated H3 histone is of interest for the study of proliferative activity of the cells in various tissues. Its detection is used in histopathological tumor diagnosis. The purpose of this study was to develop immunocytochemical protocols for the demonstration of H3 phosphohistone in the cells of the developing nervous system for classical light microscopy and confocal laser microscopy. The protocols presented allow to identify the dividing cells in the structures of developing brain with high selectivity and good reproducibility. Zinc-ethanol-formaldehyde is recommended as an optimal fixative for H3 phosphohistone.

Aims: We develop and evaluate copper-based metal-organic frameworks (Cu-MOFs) incorporating cromolyn as a linker to enhance structural stability, drug delivery efficiency, and therapeutic potential, particularly for breast cancer treatment.
Materials & Methods: Two Cu-MOF formulations were synthesized: Cu-MOFs-BDC-DOX (using terephthalic acid) and Cu-MOFs-CROMO-DOX (using cromolyn as a linker). Characterization was performed using SEM/TEM for morphology, and FTIR, XRD, and TGA to confirm structural integrity.

Anorectal fistulas remain one of the most challenging conditions in colorectal surgery and require precise anatomical knowledge for successful management. This comprehensive review synthesizes the current evidence on the anatomical foundations of fistula development and treatment, particularly focusing on the cryptoglandular hypothesis and its clinical implications. A systematic analysis of the recent literature has examined the relationship between anatomical structures and fistula formation, classification systems, diagnostic modalities, and therapeutic approaches.

Leukemia is one of the most common cancers in prepubertal girls and adolescents, with advances improving survival rates. However, treatments like chemotherapy and radiation are highly gonadotoxic, often causing ovarian insufficiency, early menopause, infertility, and endocrine disorders. Fertility preservation for young female cancer patients, especially prepubertal girls without mature germ cells, relies heavily on ovarian tissue cryopreservation.

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is a widespread highly malignant type of lung cancer. Conventional chemotherapeutic drugs may be accompanied by both drug resistance and serious side effects in patients. Therefore, safer and more effective medications are urgently needed for the treatment of NSCLC.

Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) serves as a repository of genetic information in cells and is a critical molecular target for various antibiotics and anticancer drugs. A profound understanding of small molecule interaction with DNA is crucial for the rational design of DNA-targeted therapies. While the molecular mechanics/Poisson-Boltzmann surface area (MM/PBSA) and molecular mechanics/generalized Born surface area (MM/GBSA) approaches have been well established for predicting protein-ligand binding, their application to DNA-ligand interactions has been less explored.
