An environmental friendly, fast, easy and inexpensive liquid-liquid microextraction (LLME) in combination with pH-switchable deep eutectic solvent (DES) method followed by HPLC was investigated for the separation and determination of daunorubicin (DNR) in human plasma samples. For this purpose, first, 9 DESs were prepared based on previous studies and their switchability in aqueous solution was evaluated by changing the pH. Non-switchable DESs were discarded and switchable DESs were used to extract DNR. The parameters affecting the extraction efficiency were optimized (DES type, volume of DES, concentration of KOH, volume of HCl, salt addition and extraction time). After optimizing the conditions and drawing the calibration curve, figures of merit were calculated. Relative standard deviations (%RSDs) based on 7 replicate with 50 μg L of DNR in plasma were 2.7 for intra-day and 4.8 % for inter-day. A wide linear range from 0.15 to 200 μg L was obtained. The detection limit of the method based on signal-to-noise 3 and the quantification limit of the method based on signal-to-noise 10 were 0.05 and 0.15, respectively. After spiking plasma samples with different concentrations of DNR, relative recoveries were obtained in the range of 91.0-107.8 %.

RIPK4 Downregulation Reduces ABCG2 Expression, Increasing BRAF-Mutated Melanoma Cell Susceptibility to Cisplatin- and Doxorubicin-Induced Apoptosis.

Melanoma cells remain resistant to chemotherapy with cisplatin (CisPt) and doxorubicin (DOX). The abnormal expression of Receptor-Interacting Protein Kinase 4 (RIPK4) in certain melanomas contributes to tumour growth through the NFκB and Wnt/β-catenin signalling pathways, which are known to regulate chemoresistance and recurrence. Despite this, the role of RIPK4 in response to chemotherapeutics in melanoma has not been reported.

This study aimed to summarize the clinical characteristics and prognosis of patients with bone marrow invasive follicular lymphoma (FL) and discuss the treatment modalities. This study included 183 consecutive patients with FL accompanied by bone marrow invasion and receiving regular treatment at the Hospital of Hematology, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, from January 2013 to December 2022. Clinical data were retrospectively collected and analyzed, and single and multifactorial analyses of survival prognosis were conducted with the Kaplan-Meier method and Cox regression model.

The therapeutic role of naringenin nanoparticles on hepatocellular carcinoma.

BMC Pharmacol Toxicol

January 2025

Biochemistry Department, Faculty of Science, Tanta University, Tanta, Egypt.

Background: Naringenin, a flavonoid compound found in citrus fruits, possesses valuable anticancer properties. However, its potential application in cancer treatment is limited by poor bioavailability and pharmacokinetics at tumor sites. To address this, Naringenin nanoparticles (NARNPs) were prepared using the emulsion diffusion technique and their anticancer effects were investigated in HepG2 cells.

Background: The dense and fibrotic nature of the pancreatic tumor microenvironment significantly contributes to tumor invasion and metastasis. This challenging environment acts as a formidable barrier, hindering effective drug penetration and delivery, which ultimately limits the efficacy of conventional cancer treatments. Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) have emerged as promising nanocarriers to overcome the extracellular matrix barrier; however, their limited targeting precision, poor delivery efficiency, and insufficient photothermal conversion present challenges.

Background: Double-expressor lymphoma (DEL) has a poorer prognosis than other subtypes of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). This study is a multicenter, prospective, single-arm, phase 2 clinical study initiated by investigators to evaluate the efficacy and safety of combined zanubrutinib with R-CHOP, which includes rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone for patients with DEL (stage II or more), as well as to explore factors related to efficacy preliminarily.

Methods: From November 2020 to July 2022, 48 newly diagnosed patients were enrolled.
