We studied the effects of SNK-411, a new 5-pyrimidinol derivative, on serum cytokine profile of C57Bl/6 mice with Lewis lung carcinoma. The compound was injected intraperitoneally in doses of 25 and 50 mg/kg. A significant (by 3.5 times) increase in serum IL-4 content was detected in mice with tumors on day 9 of tumor development. In mice receiving SNK-411 in doses of 25 and 50 mg/kg, IL-4 content significantly decreased (by 4.0 and 3.6 times) on days 2-8 of carcinoma development; IL-2 content decreased by 1.4 and 1.2 times and IL-6 content decreased by 2.7 and 1.6 times, respectively, in comparison with control mice with tumors. Injections of SNK-411 in the same doses on days 8-15 of carcinoma development led to a significant decrease in IL-4 levels (by 2.2 and 4.5 times, respectively, in comparison with control mice with tumors) and did not affect serum levels of other cytokines.

Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) and spatial transcriptomics (ST) techniques hold great value in evaluating the heterogeneity and spatial characteristics of hematopoietic cells within tissues. These two techniques are highly complementary, with scRNA-seq offering single-cell resolution and ST retaining spatial information. However, there is an urgent demand for well-organized and user-friendly toolkits capable of handling single-cell and spatial information.

Mutation or deletion of the deubiquitinase USP7 causes Hao-Fountain syndrome (HAFOUS), which is characterized by speech delay, intellectual disability, and aggressive behavior and highlights important unknown roles of USP7 in the nervous system. Here, we conditionally delete USP7 in glutamatergic neurons in the mouse forebrain, triggering disease-relevant phenotypes, including sensorimotor deficits, impaired cognition, and aggressive behavior. Although USP7 deletion induces p53-dependent neuronal apoptosis, most behavioral abnormalities in USP7 conditional knockout mice persist following p53 loss.

Department of Hematology, Taixing People's Hospital Affiliated to Yangzhou University, Taixing, China.
Objectives: Acute T-cell lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) is a severe hematologic malignancy with limited treatment options and poor long-term survival. This study explores the role of IKZF1 in regulating BCL-2 expression in T-ALL.
Methods: CUT&Tag and CUT&Run assays were employed to assess IKZF1 binding to the BCL-2 promoter.
SUMO-Specific Peptidase 5 Promotes Oesophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma Growth through the NF-κB- Axis.

Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery, The Affiliated Jiangyin Hospital of Nantong University, 214400 Jiangyin, Jiangsu, China.
Background: This study investigates the role of small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO)-specific peptidase 5 (SENP5), a key regulator of SUMOylation, in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), a lethal disease, and its underlying molecular mechanisms.
Methods: Differentially expressed genes between ESCC mouse oesophageal cancer tissues and normal tissues were analysed via RNA-seq; among them, SENP5 expression was upregulated, and this gene was selected for further analysis. Immunohistochemistry and western blotting were then used to validate the increased protein level of SENP5 in both mouse and human ESCC samples.
Thyroid Hormone Activation Regulates the Crosstalk between Breast Cancer and Mesenchymal Stem Cells.
Front Biosci (Landmark Ed)
January 2025
Department of Clinical Medicine and Surgery, University of Naples "Federico II", 80131 Naples, Italy.
Background: Thyroid Hormones (THs) critically impact human cancer. Although endowed with both tumor-promoting and inhibiting effects in different cancer types, excess of THs has been linked to enhanced tumor growth and progression. Breast cancer depends on the interaction between bulk tumor cells and the surrounding microenvironment in which mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) exert powerful pro-tumorigenic activities.
