Arrested cells/ cellular debris is component left in the zona pellucida after blastocyst hatching. To identify whether expelling arrested cells/cellular debris from blastocysts is a process of human embryo self-correction by eliminating abnormal cells, 21 pairs of trophectoderm (TE) biopsies and the corresponding arrested cells/cellular debris expelled from the blastocysts from July to December 2020 were collected and analyzed using next-generation sequencing (NGS). Then, the NGS results of TE biopsies and the corresponding arrested cells/cellular debris were compared. We identified that 47.6% of blastocysts (10/21) were aneuploidies and mosaicism. A total of 18 groups of arrested cells/cellular debris (85.7%) expelled from blastocysts were abnormal, including nine aneuploid embryos and nine euploid embryos. In the arrested cells/cellular debris, all the chromosomes were affected. In conclusion, mosaicism and aneuploidies are common features of early embryonic development, and the arrested cells/cellular debris expelled from blastocysts provides evidence of early embryonic self-correction.

Originally identified as an outcome of continuous culture of primary cells, cellular senescence has moved beyond the culture dish and is now a bona fide driver of aging and disease in animal models, and growing links to human disease. This cellular stress response consists of a stable proliferative arrest coupled to multiple phenotypic changes. Perhaps the most important of these is the senescence-associated secretory phenotype, or senescence-associated secretory phenotype -a complex and variable collection of secreted molecules release by senescent cells with a number of potent biological activities.

Cellular senescence is a permanent state of cell cycle arrest, combined with the acquisition of a variety of secretory phenotypes. In addition to apoptosis, the induction of cellular senescence is an important mechanism that chemo- and radiotherapies and some targeted therapies rely on to produce an anti-tumor effect. However, being a self-protective mechanism of cells, cellular senescence can produce both positive and negative effects in tumor treatment.

Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive breast cancer subtype. Non-available targeted therapy for TNBC represents its biggest treatment challenge. Thus, finding new promising effective drugs is urgently needed.

Article Synopsis
  • The study examines the effectiveness of combining seed implantation (I) with the chemotherapy drug gemcitabine (GEM) in treating advanced pancreatic cancer, specifically on PANC-1 cells.
  • Results show that this combination therapy significantly inhibits cell growth more than either treatment alone, enhances radiation-induced cell death (apoptosis), and causes a stoppage in the cell cycle.
  • The increased apoptosis is linked to a higher Bax/Bcl-2 ratio, indicating the combined treatment could be a promising approach for managing pancreatic cancer.
