Myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) are clonal hematopoietic disorders that consist classically of polycythemia vera (PV), essential thrombocythemia (ET), and myelofibrosis (MF). Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors have become the standard of therapy in treating patients with intermediate- to higher-risk MF. However, JAK inhibitor (JAKi) treatment can be associated with development of resistance, suboptimal response, relapse, or treatment-related adverse effects. With no approved therapies beyond the JAKi class, the estimated median survival, post JAKi failure, is approximately two years or less; therefore, novel therapies are urgently needed in the MF field. In this review, we discuss ruxolitinib use in MPNs as well as causes of ruxolitinib failure or discontinuation. In addition, we review novel therapies being investigated alone or in combination with JAKi administration. We summarize concepts and mechanisms behind emerging novel therapies being studied for MPNs. This review of emerging novel therapies outlines several novel mechanisms of agents, including via promotion of apoptosis, alteration of the microenvironment, activation or inactivation of various pathways, targeting fibrosis, and telomerase inhibition.

Background: Glioblastoma is an aggressive brain cancer with a 5-year survival rate of 5-10%. Current therapeutic options are limited, due in part to drug exclusion by the blood-brain barrier, restricting access of targeted drugs to the tumor. The receptor for the type 1 insulin-like growth factor (IGF-1R) was identified as a therapeutic target in glioblastoma.

Background And Objectives: Lipid metabolism in older adults is affected by various factors including biological aging, functional decline, reduced physiologic reserve, and nutrient intake. The dysregulation of lipid metabolism could adversely affect brain health. This study investigated the association between year-to-year intraindividual lipid variability and subsequent risk of cognitive decline and dementia in community-dwelling older adults.

This secondary analysis examined the feasibility and acceptability of a novel peer coaching model designed to improve adherence to an online self-help program based on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), called ACT Guide. All participants ( = 152) and peer coaches were undergraduate students attending the same university. Participants were instructed to use ACT Guide for 10 wk and were randomly assigned to receive weekly peer coaching through either phone calls or text messaging.

Carbon monoxide (CO) gas therapy, as an emerging therapeutic strategy, is promising in tumor treatment. However, the development of a red or near-infrared light-driven efficient CO release strategy is still challenging due to the limited physicochemical characteristics of the photoactivated carbon monoxide-releasing molecules (photoCORMs). Here, we discovered a novel photorelease CO mechanism that involved dual pathways of CO release via photosensitization.

Purpose: Identifying therapeutic targets for Signet Ring Cell Carcinoma (SRCC) of the colon and rectum is a clinical challenge due to the lack of Patient-Derived Organoids (PDO) or Xenografts (PDX). We present a robust method to establish PDO and PDX models to answer address this unmet need. We demonstrate that these models identify novel therapeutic strategies targeting therapy resistance and peritoneal metastasis.
