Well coordinated stages of inhibition, restoration and stimulation of protein, DNA and RNA synthesis were observed after administration of cycloheximide (3 mg/kg). The changes in lipid synthesis and composition in the nuclei and intranuclear structures were studied at different stages of cycloheximide action. The accumulation and stimulation of lipid synthesis in the nuclei during the inhibition and restoration of protein and DNA syntheses were followed by electron microscopy and labeled precursors methods. Dramatic changes were observed in the phospholipid composition of chromatin and nuclear matrix. The accumulation of minor phospholipid fractions in intranuclear structures was observed during DNA synthesis. The sphingomyelin concentration was predominant and commensurable with those of phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine.

Introduction: Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory disease. Patients with UC typically exhibit disruption of the Treg/Th17 immune axis, but its exact mechanism is still unclear.
Methods: This study first analyzed RNA- seq data from public databases of humans and mice, and cytology experiments were conducted to induce or inhibit the expression of SIRT1.

Protein N-glycosylation is a cotranslational modification that takes place in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Disruption of this process can result in accumulation of misfolded proteins, known as ER stress. In response, the unfolded protein response (UPR) restores proteostasis or responds by controlling cellular fate, including increased expression of activating transcription factor 4 (ATF4) that can lead to apoptosis.

Synthetic antidiabetic drugs are often associated with various adverse side effects, including hypoglycemia, nausea, gastrointestinal disturbances, headaches, and even liver damage. In contrast, plant-derived natural antidiabetic bioactive compounds typically exhibit lower toxicity and fewer side effects and have been reported to aid effectively in diabetes management. These plant extracts regulate diabetes by restoring pancreatic function, enhancing insulin secretion, inhibiting intestinal glucose absorption, and facilitating insulin dependent metabolism.

Bladder cancer ranks as the 9th most common type of cancer worldwide. Approximately 70 % of bladder cancers are diagnosed as non-muscle invasive, and they are treated with transurethral resection followed by intravesical therapy. Doxorubicin is one of the effective cytotoxic drugs used in intravesical and systemic therapy, but its cardiotoxicity and nephrotoxicity limit therapeutic dosages.

Background: To date, there is no effective cure for the highly malignant brain tumor glioblastoma (GBM). GBM is the most common, aggressive central nervous system tumor (CNS). It commonly originates in glial cells such as microglia, oligodendroglia, astrocytes, or subpopulations of cancer stem cells (CSCs).
