Since the pandemic caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) was first reported from Wuhan, China, there has been a surge in scientific research to find a permanent cure for the disease. The main challenge in effective drug discovery is the continuously mutating nature of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Thus, we have used the I-TASSER modeling to predict the structure of the SARS-CoV-2 viral envelope protein followed by combinatorial computational assessment to predict its putative potential small molecule inhibitors.

Objective: Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and metastasis are the primary causes of mortality in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). 5'-3' exoribonuclease 2 (XRN2) plays an important role in the process of tumor EMT. Thus, this investigation mainly aimed to clarify the precise molecular pathways through which XRN2 contributes to EMT and metastasis in NSCLC.

A case series of VATS intrapericardial pneumonectomy: a bi-centric experience.

J Cardiothorac Surg

December 2024

Izmir Faculty of Medicine, Department of Thoracic Surgery, University of Health Sciences Turkey, Izmir, Turkey.

Background: Intrapericardial pneumonectomy is a complex procedure indicated for large lung tumors where safe dissection of major vascular structures outside the pericardium is unfeasible or when the pericardium itself is invaded. Traditionally managed via open thoracotomy, recent advancements in VATS techniques now allow for intrapericardial pneumonectomy even in cases with extensive tumors or locally advanced disease. In this article, we detail the clinical outcomes and surgical considerations of six patients with non-small cell lung cancer who underwent VATS intrapericardial pneumonectomy.

Study of the effect of azithromycin on airway remodeling in asthma via the SAPK/JNK pathway.

J Cardiothorac Surg

December 2024

Department of Internal Medicine, the Second Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine, 88 Jiefang Road, Shangcheng District, Hangzhou, China, 310009.

Objective: Asthma is a prevalent status attributing to lower respiratory tract chronic inflammation. Azithromycin (AZM) is known to be effective against asthma. Thus, this study delved into the mechanism of AZM repressing airway remodeling (AR) via the SAPK/JNK pathway in asthma.
