Background: Aggregation of the hyperphosphorylated tau protein in neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs) is a pathological hallmark of Alzheimer's Disease (AD). Several kinases contribute to the pathological phosphorylation of tau (pTau). However, kinase-targeted therapies for AD have failed in clinical trials due to largely unknown mechanism of action, low efficacy, and severe side-effects.

In clinical studies, biweekly lecanemab treatment demonstrated a slowing of decline in clinical (global, cognitive, functional, and quality of life) outcomes, and reduction in brain amyloid in early Alzheimer's disease (AD). Herein, we describe the impact of lecanemab treatment on tau PET.

Acute liver failure (ALF) is marked by a substantial generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which can induce both cellular senescence and a pronounced inflammatory response. Senescent cells secrete factors collectively termed the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP), which exacerbate inflammation, while inflammation can reciprocally promote cellular senescence. Quercetin (Que), recognized for its ROS-scavenging capabilities, holds the potential for anti-inflammatory and anti-senescent effects.

Cancer, particularly skin cancer, is a major cause of mortality worldwide, with melanoma being one of the most aggressive and challenging to treat types. Current therapeutic options, such as dacarbazine (DTIC), have limitations due to dose-related toxicities like liver toxicity. Therefore, there is a need for new and effective treatments for melanoma.
