Objective: To analyze the effects of adipose tissue-derived stem cells (ADSCs) on the proliferation and invasion of pancreatic cancer (PaCa) cells and the the possible mechanism involved.
Methods: ADSCs were isolated and co-cultured with PaCa cells. CCK-8 assay was used to detect the proliferation of PaCa cells. An ELISA was used to determine the concentration of stromal cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1) in the supernatants. The proliferation of PaCa cells by SDF-1 was measured. AMD3100 regulated the co-culture of ADSCs and PaCa. The tumor growth of PaCa cells was assessed after treatment by ADSCs in vivo.
Results: ADSCs can promote the proliferation and invasion of PaCa cells (proliferation: SW1990: 1.535 ± 0.153; PANC-1: 1.370 ± 0.100; the value of control was 1; invasion: SW1990: 47.0 ± 2.6 vs. 28.3 ± 1.3; PANC-1: 40.3 ± 1.8 vs. 24.3 ± 1.3; t = 4.332-9.558, P < 0.05). The expression of SDF-1 was high in ADSCs, but not in PaCa cells (69 ± 5 vs. 0 and 0, F = 389.134, P < 0.01). The promotion of SDF-1 on PaCa cells depends on the concentration. AMD3100 significantly downregulates these growth-promoting effects of ADSCs on PaCa cells. ADSCs significantly promoted the growth of SW1990 in nude mice at the 5(th) week (volume: (1295 ± 102) mm(3) vs. (967 ± 81) mm(3), t = 5.614, P < 0.05) , but not in PANC-1 cell.
Conclusion: ADSCs can promote the proliferation and invasion of PaCa cells, which may involve the SDF-1/CXCR4 axis.

Background: Inadequate treatment responses, chemotherapy resistance, significant heterogeneity, and lengthy treatment durations create an urgent need for new pancreatic cancer therapies. This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of gemcitabine-loaded nanoparticles enclosed in an organo-metallic framework under ketogenic conditions in inhibiting the growth of MIA-PaCa-2 cells.
Methods: Gemcitabine was encapsulated in Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and its morphology and size distribution were examined using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and Dynamic light scattering (DLS) with further characterization including FTIR analysis.

As a result of anti-inflammatory activity-guided fractionation, 16 secondary metabolites from the underground parts of Valeriana phu L. were obtained, including five new ones belonging to iridoid (1, 2, and 5), phenylpropanoid (6) and neolignan (7) chemical classes. Their structures were elucidated by 1D and 2D NMR analyses as well as HRESIMS.

Introduction/aims: Neurolymphomatosis is a hematological condition defined by the direct infiltration of malignant lymphomatous cells into the peripheral nervous system. Since nerve conduction studies may disclose demyelinating features, clinicians may misdiagnose neurolymphomatosis as chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP). This study aimed to determine whether patients with neurolymphomatosis met the 2021 revised criteria for CIDP.

The Chansu injection (CSI), a sterile aqueous solution derived from Chansu, is applied in clinical settings to support antitumor and anti-radiation treatments. CSI's principal active components, bufadienolides (≥90%), demonstrate potential effects on pancreatic cancer (PDAC), but their underlying mechanisms remain unclear. This study aimed to elucidate the antitumor effects and pathways associated with CSI in PDAC.
