The developing nanoparticle therapeutic agents triggered by tumor microenvironment are a feasible strategy for the substantial elevation of accuracy of diagnosis and the reduction of side effects in cancer treatments. Dysregulated HS production from the enzyme system of overexpressed cystathionine β-synthase has long been considered to act as an autocrine and paracrine factor for the tumor growth and proliferation of colon cancer. Herein, for the first time, an endogenous HS-activated copper metal-organic framework (Cu-MOF; HKUST-1) nanoenzyme has been demonstrated to synergistically mediate HS-activated near-infrared photothermal therapy and chemodynamic therapy in the effective treatment of colon cancer. This endogenous biomarker-triggered "turn-on" strategy to generate therapeutic agents could largely simplify the constitution of nanomedicine by avoiding the cargo introduction and thus supply great promise for the precise treatments of colon cancer.

Purpose: Locally advanced colorectal tumors frequently invade adjacent organs, particularly the urinary bladder in the sigmoid colon and upper rectum, complicating multivisceral resections. This study compared postoperative outcomes of partial cystectomy (PC) and total cystectomy (TC) in patients with locally advanced colorectal cancer.

Methods: A systematic review was conducted in PubMed, Scopus, Central Register of Clinical Trials, and Web of Science for studies published up to November 2024.

Introduction: The objective of this study is to compare the 5 year overall survival of patients with stage I-III colon cancer treated by laparoscopic colectomy versus open colectomy.

Methods: Using Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania Cancer Registry data from 2008 to 2018, we will emulate a phase III, multicenter, open-label, two-parallel-arm hypothetical target trial in adult patients with stage I-III colon cancer who received laparoscopic or open colectomy as an elective treatment. An inverse-probability weighted Royston‒Parmar parametric survival model (RPpsm) will be used to estimate the hazard ratio of laparoscopic versus open surgery after confounding factors are balanced between the two treatment arms.

Designing dual-targeted nanomedicines to enhance tumor delivery efficacy is a complex challenge, largely due to the barrier posed by blood vessels during systemic delivery. Effective transport across endothelial cells is, therefore, a critical topic of study. Herein, we present a synthetic biology-based approach to engineer dual-targeted ferritin nanocages (Dt-FTn) for understanding receptor-mediated transport across tumor endothelial cells.

Thiamine Deficiency Is Common and Underrecognized in Emergency Department Oncology Patients.

J Clin Med

January 2025

Department of Emergency Medicine, Henry Ford Health, Detroit, MI 48202, USA.

: Wernicke's encephalopathy can occur in oncology patients independent of alcohol use, likely resulting from poor dietary thiamine intake. High metabolic demands, such as those in acute illnesses seen in the emergency department (ED), can exacerbate thiamine deficiency. In this study, our objective was to assess the incidence of thiamine deficiency in ED oncology patients, which could lead to Wernicke's encephalopathy or other thiamine deficiency disorders if left untreated.
