AI Article Synopsis

  • * In experiments, administering NaB either before or after MDV infection significantly reduced both the incidence and mortality rates associated with the infection, while also decreasing the expression of key viral genes linked to tumor formation.
  • * NaB was found to effectively inhibit the growth and spread of MDV-infected lymphoma cells by targeting the mitochondrial apoptosis pathway, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic option for MDV prevention.

Article Abstract

Sodium butyrate (NaB) has garnered attention in recent years for its ability to impede the malignant progression of tumors. In order to explore the potential inhibitory effects of NaB on the replication of Marek's disease virus (MDV) and subsequent lymphoma formation, newly hatched chickens were infected with the vvMDV Md5 strain and administered NaB prior to (prevention group) or following (treatment group) Md5 inoculation. The results revealed that NaB played a pivotal role in diminishing both the incidence and fatality rates in chickens afflicted with Md5 infection. Notably, NaB exhibited a remarkable capacity to inhibit the expression of MDV immediate early genes, i.e., and , thus attenuating tumorigenesis in the chicken spleen. To further elucidate the mechanism of NaB on lymphoma cells, MDV bearing lymphoma cells, i.e., MSB-1 were exposed to NaB for 24 h prior to various experimental tests. The results revealed that NaB effectively hindered the proliferation, migration, and colony formation of MSB-1 cells. Furthermore, NaB demonstrated the ability to modulate the key molecules in mitochondrial apoptosis pathway. Taken together, these findings reveal that NaB can impede the lymphoma caused by MDV via regulating the mitochondrial apoptosis pathway, both and . These results suggest that the utilization of NaB warrants serious consideration as a promising approach for the prevention of MDV.

Background: Mitochondrial dysfunction and neuronal damage are major sign of cytopathology in Huntington's disease (HD), a neurodegenerative disease. Ubiquitin specific peptidase 11 (USP11) is a deubiquitinating enzyme involved in various physiological processes through regulating protein degradation. However, its specific role in HD is unclear.

Astemizole Exacerbates 5-Fluorouracil-Triggered Cardiotoxicity by Enhancing Ptgs2.

Cardiovasc Toxicol

January 2025

Department of Cardiology, Zhongshan Hospital Wusong Branch, Fudan University, Shanghai, China.

5-fluorouracil (5-FU), a commonly utilized antitumor agent for the treatment of colon cancer, is linked to an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases. Antihistamines including astemizole (AST) have been reported to present cardiovascular toxicity; however, it remains unclear how 5-FU-mediated cardiotoxicity is affected by AST during the treatment of colon cancer. This study explored the role of AST in 5-FU-induced cardiotoxicity in colon cancer.

Observational studies have shown that cadmium exposure increases the risk of cardiovascular disease, but the underlying mechanism is still unclear. Atherosclerotic plaque can cause vascular obstruction, which is important for the death from cardiovascular disease. Cell damage and monocyte adhesion are two early events in atherosclerotic plaque formation that can be induced by cadmium exposure, but the mechanism remains to be determined.

Design, synthesis and cytotoxic activity of novel lipophilic cationic derivatives of diosgenin and sarsasapogenin.

Bioorg Med Chem Lett

January 2025

Department of Natural Medicinal Chemistry, School of Chinese Pharmacy, China Pharmaceutical University, Nanjing 210009 China. Electronic address:

Novel lipophilic cationic derivatives including quaternary ammonium salt and triphenylphosphine series were designed and synthesized using diosgenin (1) and sarsasapogenin (2) as substrates to improve the cytotoxicity and selectivity. Most of the derivatives showed higher cytotoxicity against all cancer cell lines tested, compound 13 exhibited the most superior activity against A549 cells with an IC value of 0.95 μM, which was 34-fold of diosgenin.
