The presence of circulating tumor cell (CTC) clusters is associated with disease progression and reduced survival in a variety of cancer types. In breast cancer, preclinical studies showed that inhibitors of the Na/K ATPase suppress CTC clusters and block metastasis. Here we conducted a prospective, open-label, proof-of-concept study in women with metastatic breast cancer, where the primary objective was to determine whether treatment with the Na/K ATPase inhibitor digoxin could reduce mean CTC cluster size.

Objectives: To investigate the role of the BNIP3-PI3K/Akt signaling pathway in mediating the inhibitory effect of Decoction (BYHWT) on mitochondrial autophagy in human synovial fibroblasts from rheumatoid arthritis patients (FLS-RA) cultured under a hypoxic condition.

Methods: Forty normal Wistar rats were randomized into two groups (=20) for daily gavage of BYHWT or distilled water for 7 days to prepare BYHWT-medicated or control sera. FLS-RA were cultured in routine condition or exposed to hypoxia (10% O) for 24 h wigh subsequent treatment with IL-1β, followed by treatment with diluted BYHWT-medicated serum (5%, 10% and 20%) or control serum.

Sucrose laurate, a commonly used emulsifier, was investigated to explore its preservative effect combined with nisin using Bacillus subtilis as indicator. The results suggested that sucrose laurate and nisin exhibited synergistic antibacterial effect with the fractional inhibitory concentration index of 0.5.

Purpose: Recurrent miscarriage (RM) is a distressing and complicated adverse pregnancy outcome. It is commonly recognized that insufficient decidualization could result in RM, but the molecular mechanisms of decidual impairment are still not fully understood. Thus, this study aimed to identify novel key genes potentially involved in RM and explore their roles played in endometrial decidualization.
