The present study investigated the role of microRNA‑135a (miR‑135a) in cutaneous T‑cell lymphoma (CTCL) proliferation. Compared with the normal T lymphocyte control cell line, the mRNA and protein levels of GATA binding protein 3 (GATA‑3) were markedly increased in the Hut78 cell line and miR‑135a was markedly decreased (P<0.05). Based on bioinformatics, the target gene of miR‑135a was identified as GATA‑3. Dual luciferase and pre‑miR‑135a assays showed that miR‑135a regulated the translation of GATA‑3. In addition, the overexpression of miR‑135a mimics decreased the protein levels of GATA‑3 and thymocyte selection‑associated high mobility group box (TOX). The substantially increased mRNA and protein levels of GATA‑3 may be associated with the downregulation of miR‑135a, leading to T‑cell deregulation and proliferation through GATA‑3/TOX regulation and subsequently causing CTCL.

: This study is an attempt to reveal the potential of two types of interpenetrating polymer network (IPN) hydrogels based on poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (PHEMA) and poly(N,N-dimethylacrylamide) (PDMAM). These IPNs were evaluated for their potential for dermal delivery of the hydrophobic drug dexamethasone (DEX). : The two types of IPNs were analyzed for their rheological behavior, swelling characteristics, and drug-loading capacity with DEX.

Background: Cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) is a type of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma that primarily affects the skin, rich in hyaluronic acid (HA). HA is a component of the extracellular matrix in the dermis and likely affects the development of CTCL, but the mechanism is poorly understood. Here we show that low-molecular-weight HA (LMWHA) possibly exacerbates CTCL, and bexarotene, already used in CTCL treatment, decreases HA production.

Novel 6-substituted 2-(trifluoromethyl)quinoline 5a-5e and coumarin 6a-6d ligands with aldoxime ether linked pyridine moiety were synthesized by O-alkylation of quinoline and coumarin with (E)-picolinaldehyde oxime and subsequently with [Re(CO)Cl] gave rhenium(I) tricarbonyl complexes 5a-5e and 6a-6d that were fully characterized by NMR, single-crystal X-ray diffraction, IR and UV-Vis spectroscopy. The results of antiproliferative evaluation of quinoline and coumarin ligands and their rhenium(I) tricarbonyl complexes on various human tumor cell lines, including acute lymphoblastic leukemia (CCRF-CEM), acute monocytic leukemia (THP1), cervical adenocarcinoma (HeLa), colon adenocarcinoma (CaCo-2), T-cell lymphoma (HuT78), and non-tumor human fibroblasts (BJ) showed that the quinoline complexes 5a-5e had higher inhibitory activity than coumarin complexes 6a-6d, particularly against T-cell lymphoma (HuT78) cells. 6-Methoxy-2-(trifluoromethyl)quinoline 5e and 6-methylcoumarin 6d, and their rhenium(I) tricarbonyl complexes 5e and 6d were found to arrest the cell cycle of HuT78 cells by causing a significant accumulation of cells in the G0/G1 phase and a marked decrease in the number of cells in the G2/M phase.

Background: Belinostat, a histone deacetylase inhibitor used for hematological cancer treatments, however, it caused thrombocytopenia, poor solubility, and rapid clearance. To mitigate these issues, human serum albumin (HSA) was utilized as the core material for its high protein binding affinity and self-binding capabilities. The study focused on developing belinostat-loaded HSA nanoparticles to improve solubility, extend circulation time, and reduce adverse effects.

Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) occurs when HIV depletes CD4+ helper T cells. Some patients develop AIDS slowly or not at all, and are termed long-term non-progressors (LTNP), and while mutations in the HIV-1 Viral Protein R () gene such as R77Q are associated with LTNP, mechanisms for this correlation are unclear. This study examines the induction of apoptosis, cell cycle arrest, and pro-inflammatory cytokine release in the HUT78 T cell line following infection with replication-competent wild-type strain NL4-3, the R77Q mutant, or a Null mutant.
