New alkulidene hydrazones of rubomycin (daunorubicin) with the linear or branched chain of the carbon atoms were studied: rubomycin 13-(hexylidene-2")-hydrazone, rubomycin 13-(heptylidene-3")-hydrazone and rubomycin 13-(4"-methylpentylidene-2")-hydrazone. Alkylidene hydrazones of the formamidine derivatives were also studied: 13:cyclohexylidene hydrazone of 3'-desamino-3'-dimethylformamidine rubomycin and 13-(5"-oxypentyliden-2") hudrazone of 3'-desamino-3'-dimethylformamidine rubomycin. The latter two alkylidene hydrazones were modified twice. It was found that after a single intravenous administration to tumor-free mice the new substance had the same or lower toxicity as compared to that of rubomycin. Antitumor activity of the substances against lymphosarcoma LIO-I was studied comparatively with that of the initial rubomycin. It was shown that the molecule modification at C-13, as well as simultaneous modification at C-13 and the sugar amino group resulted in lowering of the antitumor activity in comparison to that of the starting rubomycin.

NKTCL is a highly aggressive malignant tumor, especially prevalent in the southern regions of China. Although chemotherapy regimens based on ADM have achieved certain therapeutic effects in early treatment, the issue of ADM resistance severely limits the therapeutic efficacy and makes it difficult to improve patient survival rates. Our research results indicate that the expression level of APOC1 is closely related to the sensitivity of NKTCL cells to ADM.

Senescence, a crucial yet paradoxical phenomenon in cellular biology, acts as a barrier against cancer progression while simultaneously promoting aging and age-related pathologies. This duality underlines the importance of precise monitoring of senescence response, especially with regard to the proposed use of drugs selectively removing senescent cells. In particular, little is known about the role of senescence in neurons and in neurodegenerative diseases.

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) featuring retinoic acid receptor-gamma (RARG) rearrangements exhibits morphological features resembling those of acute promyelocytic leukemia but is associated with drug resistance and poor clinical outcomes. However, the mechanisms underlying the role of RARG fusions in leukemogenesis remain elusive. Here, we show that RARG fusions disrupt myeloid differentiation and promote proliferation and self-renewal of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) by upregulating BCL2 and ATF3.

The study explored the pathological mechanism of doxorubicin chemotherapy-induced neurotoxicity and the intervention methods of traditional Chinese medicine. BALB/c mice were selected to establish tumor-bearing mouse models by orthotopic injection of 4T1 triple-negative breast cancer cells. After randomization, the mice were treated with doxorubicin chemotherapy or doxorubicin chemotherapy + Kaixin San(KXS).

Background: In the fifth National Wilms Tumor Study, patients received vincristine and dactinomycin (VA) without radiation for stage I focal anaplastic Wilms tumor (FAWT) and VA plus doxorubicin (DD4A) and radiation for stage II-IV FAWT. Four-year event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS) for stage I FAWT were 67.5% and 88.
