Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common type of primary liver cancer. Numerous signalling pathways are involved in hepatocellular carcinoma. Piperlongumine is a potential candidate for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma. Therefore, it is of interest to document the molecular docking analysis of piperlongumine with different apoptotic proteins involved in Hepatocellular Carcinoma. Piperlongumine was docked with the HCC targets such as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), epidermal growth factor receptor, Aurora-2, Nuclear factor Kappa-B (NF-KB), Jak2 Kinase, Fibroblast growth factor receptor 4, Bcl-2-like protein 1,Apopain, and Apoptosis regulator Bcl-2 using technique with the software grid-based ligand docking with energies. Piperlongumine exhibited the highest negative energy value (E-value) of -6.58 kcal/mol with vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2, followed by -5.46, -5.34, -5.31, and -5.29 kcal/mol with 1M17, 2BMC, 1SVC, 4C61, 4XCU with epidermal growth factor receptor, aurora-2, nuclear factor Kappa-B (NF-KB), Jak2 kinase, and fibroblast growth factor receptor 4 (FGFR4), respectively for further consideration.

Insulin-like growth factor II mRNA-binding proteins (IGF2BPs), a family of RNA-binding proteins, are pivotal in regulating RNA dynamics, encompassing processes such as localization, metabolism, stability, and translation through the formation of ribonucleoprotein complexes. First identified in 1999 for their affinity to insulin-like growth factor II mRNA, IGF2BPs have been implicated in promoting tumor malignancy behaviors, including proliferation, metastasis, and the maintenance of stemness, which are associated with unfavorable outcomes in various cancers. Additionally, non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), particularly long non-coding RNAs, circular RNAs, and microRNAs, play critical roles in cancer progression through intricate protein-RNA interactions.

Background: Severe or recurring major depression is associated with increased adverse childhood experiences (ACEs), heightened atherogenicity, and immune-linked neurotoxicity (INT). Nevertheless, the interconnections among these variables in outpatient major depression (OMDD) have yet to be determined. We aim to determine the correlations among INT, atherogenicity, and ACEs in OMDD patients compared to normal controls.

Chondrosarcoma is a type of bone cancer that originates from cartilage cells. In clinical practice, surgical resection is the primary treatment for chondrosarcoma, but chemotherapy becomes essential for patients with metastasis or tumors in surgically inaccessible sites. However, drug resistance often leads to treatment failure.

Background: Muscle atrophy after the rupture of a rotator cuff (RC) tendon is a major factor that increases the risk of secondary complications and re-rupture. Metformin, a type 2 diabetes treatment, can be used to modulate intracellular signaling pathways that promote muscle growth. This study aimed to verify whether systemic metformin administration could prevent supraspinatus (SS) atrophy after RC rupture in a rat model.
