Tyrosine transamination has been investigatedin vitro with a preparation of rat liver tyrosine aminotransferase in the presence of several structural derivatives of the substrate, including the phosphonic analogue. The transamination by tyrosine aminotransferase (TAT) needs the presence in the substrate molecule of free amino and carboxylic groups, a three-carbon aliphatic chain, a para-phenolic hydroxylic function and aL-configuration. Some tyrosine analogues can markedly disturb the Tyr-TAT association: the chief structural modifications are (i) the removal of the free amine function in a compound still possessing a para-hydroxylic and a carboxylic group, (ii) the change of the carboxylic function by another acidic group, especially a phosphonic one, (iii) a disubstitution in positions 3 and 5. In every situation, the presence of a parahydroxylic group is compulsory to observe an inhibitory effect.

Background/objectives: The neurometabolic function is controlled by a complex multi-level physiological system that includes neurochemical, hormonal, immunological, sensory, and metabolic components. Functional disorders of monoamine systems are often detected in clinical practice together with metabolic dysfunctions. An important part of the mentioned pathological conditions are associated with disturbances in protein metabolism, some of the most important biomarkers which are aminotransferases and transcription factors that regulate and direct the most important metabolic reactions.

Background: Sorafenib is a first-line treatment option for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the impact of sorafenib resistance type on patient survival prediction and choice of second-line treatment regimen is unknown.
Objectives: This study aims to explore the factors predicting resistance in patients with HCC receiving sorafenib, the impact of resistance on survival, and the optimal second-line treatment regimen.

The prevailing belief is that third-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) targeting the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) (TGET) outperform first-generation EGFR-TKIs (FGET) in managing advanced-stage EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, this standpoint lacks substantiation in evidence-based medicine. Therefore, this meta-analysis was conducted to compare the efficacy and adverse effects (AEs) of these two categories.

Introduction: Inotuzumab ozogamicin (InO) is indicated for the treatment of adults with relapsed or refractory (R/R) acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). This systematic literature review (CRD42022330496) assessed outcomes by baseline characteristics for patients with R/R ALL treated with InO to identify which patients may benefit most.
Methods: In adherence with PRISMA guidelines, searches were run in Embase and MEDLINE.

Objective: The combination of epithelial growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) leads to an increased incidence of severe immune-related adverse events (irAEs). However, the mechanisms underlying macrophages in irAEs have not been elucidated.
Methods: An osimertinib and ICI-induced irAE mouse model was constructed.
